How to Budget for Christmas

The holidays are meant to be spent family and the ones you love. Not stressing out about how much you’ve spent on gifts for them. I am all too guilty of overspending during the holidays. If you’re like me, you need an easier way to stay on budget.

This budgeting process is like magic. It’s quick AND it’s easy. While list-making and budgeting aren’t revolutionary processes, they will make your life simpler and stress-free. Plus, you’ll feel rewarded when you see your account balance and how much money you saved. That’s exactly why I love this budgeting system for the holidays.
