Gift-Giving on a Christmas Budget from yaydohorku's blog

Christmas is coming, which means the goose may be getting fat, but your wallet, not so much! So, what are you going to do? You’ve got presents to buy, but you must stick to a Christmas budget while still purchasing quality gifts to wrap up and place under the tree.

Before you head out to the stores or browse online shops, let’s discuss how to plan a budget for Christmas gifts.

Don’t wait until the last minute on Christmas Eve to get the best deals. Look for big savings and Christmas deals ahead of the holiday with plenty of time to gift wrap it all in time to place under the tree for Christmas morning, awaiting pajama-clad children bouncing up and down with glee as they rip open the wrappings.

Kick off your budget-friendly holiday shopping by making a gift-giving list for the little ones you want to give to during the festivities. Break down the list into categories such as clothing, food, toys, and accessories.

Try diligently to stay within the budget you choose to set, but it may surprise you how far your budget will go.
