Shoppers have shared their delight to find a cute plushie Christmas decoration in Primark at a fraction of the cost of a very similar-looking Jellycat version. The stuffed, cuddly Jellycat Amuseables Decorated Christmas Wreath, £70, is decorated with three red bows and three golden baubles while having a sweet little face and a pair of legs, in typical, adorable Jellycat fashion.

Meanwhile, Primark is selling a £7 version which also has little dangling feet and a red bow. The Primark toy comes decorated with an embroidered Christmas present, a candy cane and some sprigs of holly.

Jellycat is a popular plushie brand that recently moved in to Selfridges. The huge concession has a vast range of cute collectables, including a festive range that is far larger than just the Christmas wreath.

Meanwhile, Primark has gone all out for Christmas once again, revealing its largest Grinch collection yet. You can shop before refuelling at the Grinch-themed cafe.

While the most dedicated Jellycat enthusiasts won't fall for the £7 'dupe', it's a much more affordable option for those who just love the concept without being tied to the brand. Both would look fantastic nestled under the Christmas tree.

Other plush toys with little faces in Primark include a festive Avocado, a Christmas present, a cup and straw and a little chunky Christmas frog. Jellycat's Christmas characters include a peanut reindeer, a 'toasty vivacious' red aubergine wearing ear muffs and a cup of hot chocolate complete with a whip of cream.
