Between all the gift shopping, festive nights out and general largesse of the season, November's paycheque tends to dwindle pretty quickly. But scrimping in the lead up to the big day doesn't have to mean spending your weekends doing nothing. London will always have an abundance of brilliant things to do that won't cost you a penny, so you can save up for Christmas and continue enjoying the finest things this city has to offer.

Yes, we know October has only just begun, but sooner or later the mince pies will start appearing on the shelves and before you know it London will be in full festive mode. It's only 12 weeks until Christmas, after all. For those who love getting immersed in all the city has to offer at Christmas time, there's loads of markets to get you excited (and stocked with presents) for December 25. And no, we're not just talking about Winter Wonderland.
