A SAVVY mum transformed a boring \u00a310.99 cake into a dinosaur spectacle for her son's birthday using bargains from B&M and IKEA.<\/p>\n

Eilidh Wells, from\u00a0Glasgow, regularly shares her parenting tips and family trips on social media (@eilidhwells).<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

In one video, she revealed how parents can save cash when it comes to their children's birthday cakes.<\/p>\n

Rather than paying a bakery to create a dinosaur-themed treat for her little boy, Eilidh decided to give it a go for herself.<\/p>\n

The mum of two picked up a \u00a310.99 chocolate fudge cake from Costco which she then decorated with biscuits and cookies.<\/p>\n

She also bought toy dinosaurs from B&M to sit on top of the cake, before cutting some branches off an artificial IKEA plant to complete the look.<\/p>\n

Showing off the results, she said: "The EASIEST birthday cake to throw together. <\/p>\n

"This is the \u00a310.99 Costco cake with some wafer rolls stuck into the edges from Home Bargains, some dinosaurs from B&M, some artificial leaves and crushed cookies."<\/p>\n

She added: "This took 10 mins max to put together and he was so happy with it.<\/p>\n

"Plus then they get some new dinosaurs to play with."<\/p>\n
