Pizza-perfect Dominos offer

You’ll soon be tucking into turkey, sprouts and pigs in blankets, but why not pig out on pizza in the meantime? Wuntu are making Mondays ‘fun days’ with a pizza-perfect Dominos voucher that gets you any small pizza off the menu for just £3. Simply open up Wuntu and grab your £3 pizza deal today, and next Monday too. You can get your chops around a 9.5in small pizza from the Domino’s menu. That’s 6 slices of cheesy goodness for just £3.

All you need is the Wuntu app on your phone. It’s exclusive to all our lovely Three customers and it’s super quick and free to download. You can find it in the App Store on your iPhone or in Google Play on all Android devices. And you won’t regret it, because there are plenty of gorgeous deals to be had every day of the week.

How to get your Domino’s voucher.

• Open up Wuntu and go to the Domino’s deal.

• Pick a 9.5in small pizza from the menu.
• Enter your Domino’s Wuntu code if you’re paying online, or show it to the cashier instore before you pay.

Your £3 pizza will need to be collected because the offer isn’t available for delivery, but don’t worry, you can pop out in your reindeer onesie and no-one will bat an eyelid. If you’re feeling particularly lazy or you’re feeding the tribe, just add extra toppings or additional pizzas to qualify for delivery (but you’ll have to pay for the additional items at standard menu prices).

How to take the best Christmas tree pics

Your tree is flawlessly decorated. It looks wonderful, not a single bauble out of place. When it comes to taking a photo of it for the ‘gram however, it doesn’t even look like a Christmas tree any more. So, avoid wasting time with photos that are never going to make it to your grid, use these top tips and make your post outshine all the other pictures of Christmas trees that are sure to be flooding your Insta-feed. And, once you’ve perfected your technique, why not share your best Christmas pictures with us at [email protected] and we’ll share our favourite here on the Hub, on Christmas Day.

Let in the light

Obviously, you want your twinkly fairy lights to be seen so, you turn the lights off but, it’d be good to actually see your tree and all the hard work you’ve put in getting the decorations perfectly placed too, right? So, what do you do? The first step is to make sure your flash is off – that just confuses the camera and ruins your pic. Next, a slow shutter speed’s best as it’ll let in most light. You can do this through your camera settings or with an app, like Camera + (iOS) or Footej Camera (Android). Remember to try and keep a steady hand when taking slowed-down images. Unless you fancy experimenting with ‘light painting’ in your Christmas pictures, that is.

If you don’t want to mess around with settings and apps, why not treat yourself to the Samsung Galaxy S9 with its incredible low-light camera. It does all the hard work for you, you just need to point and click.

Don’t go for the obvious

One way to make sure your Christmas pictures stand out from the rest, is to go a little bit abstract.

We’re talking reflections in baubles, extreme close-ups of your favourite decorations and different angles. Why not check out #christmastree on Instagram for some inspo, if you need it.

It’s not just about the tree…

No really, it’s not. Sure, 20 photos of your beautiful tree in all its festive glory might be nice to look at in a few years’ time but, don’t get so obsessed with angles, shutter speeds and close-ups that you forget the most important thing…the people that are around it (even if they are messing with your decorations) So, whether it’s your mum, your grandad or even your dog, get them in your Christmas pictures. The cuter the pic, the better.
