Christmas on a Budget
Christmas on a Budget
December 13, 2021
Christmas shopping can be stressful when you're on a budget.
Here are 4 tips for a cost-friendly Christmas:
Books
- Less expensive than electronics!
- Your child will love reading with you
- Gently used books look new. Check your local thrift shop for used books that cost less than $1.00. I found some for 25 cents!
- Get them their very own Library Card. It’s free for you, and you’ll have access to books, movies, audiobooks, computers and all the awesome stuff libraries have to offer!
The Dollar Store
- Great toys, glo sticks, craft supplies, cute socks
Clearance section of every store
- Always check this section first!
Have holiday traditions that focus on family time, not the presents
- Decorate a gingerbread house
- Sing Christmas carols
- Watch a Christmas movie as a family
- Drive around and look at all the Christmas lights
- Go to see Santa at Bass Pro shop for a free picture.
P.S. Younger children like the bows, boxes and wrapping paper more than the expensive gifts!
Merry Christmas!!!
