Save on Gifts
We have to send different kind of gifts to various people.But if these things come in one time,you wil find that you do not so much for them.So you have to learn to save money on them.
Here are some quick and easy ways to nip and tuck this holiday season.
1. Check the gift box. Do you have things in there that can be used for giving this year? Think of it like your closet. Sometimes that fabulous outfit is already in your closet if you can just take the time to see what’s inside. Check out your gift box before you head to the mall!
2. The sentimental pass. Several years ago, my mother-in-law gave me her mother’s china. To this day, it is one of my favorite gifts ever.
3. Make it or bake it. Consider a plate of baked goods, or some handmade treat. One of my best childhood memories is all the amazing treats my dad brought home every Christmas. He was a mail carrier and every year, the “sweet, little old ladies”(as he called them) that he looked out for all year would thank him with endless tins of cookies. The love and gratitude….and butter… just poured out of those cookies!
4. Pick a name. Instead of an endless list of people, consider starting a “secret Santa list” with some of your groups. Make it a real one, or make it silly one. Why not? Take financial and time pressure off your shoulders and just have fun!!! Read more »
