BUDGET HOLIDAY TIPS
  • Set a limit and stick to it: Establish your budget and don’t stray.
  • Go online: Before purchasing, search for coupon collection Web sites to help save money.
  • Keep it simple: Tell your loved ones that this season, it’s more about the thought than the gift
  • Get together: Holidays are about quality time. In lieu of gifts, why not host a holiday card-signing party?
  • Don’t buy for yourself: It may be tempting to pick up a thing or two while shopping for others but remember that you’ll be receiving gifts from others. If you must treat yourself, don’t spend more than $10.
