		<description><![CDATA[Some Years it is Tough to Be Santa! This will be a tough year for many families. As I am writing this, I am thinking about the stack of property tax bills on my counter, and also the holiday gifts that my kids want. This may seem like a bad time to think about being frugal, but it is probably one of the best times. So how can I cut some expenses, like holiday gift giving, while sticking to a budget. A Holday Gift Budget is Important! Before you buy anything, write down a realistic budget. If you can set aside $300 or $1,000, I would suggest taking that amount of money out in cash. It is a lot easier to stick to your budget if you have to spend real money instead of just swiping plastic at the register. If you cannot use cash, try to keep a register of your expenses. The act of keeping a tally and writing it down will help. So Where Can We Find Cheap Gifts that are Still Nice? I have written about this before, but thrift stores can be gold mines of inexpensive gifts. You will also be doing triple duty with [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Holiday E Cards are The New Black! Let&#8217;s face it. We all really think that commercial greeting cards are a waste of money. I mean, c&#8217;mon! How do they expect us to justify spending $3.99 or more on a cardboard sheet and an envelope just so we don&#8217;t have to actually think of something to write. And don&#8217;t forget that after you buy the cards, you will have to stick on postage. More and more people are sending invitations and holiday greetings with online greeting cards, and I thought I&#8217;d point out a free online e card website that can satisfy you if you celebrate Kwanza, Christmas, Chanukah, or something I haven&#8217;t thought of. The tools to build your own custom holiday greetings are simple to use, and you do not need to be technical at all. In fact, you can have a lot of fun with this, and I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ll get great complements for your creativity and thoughtfulness. Send Free E Cards Here No related posts.
