It’s the most wonderful time of the year. Weather is cooler. The year is winding down. Kids are out of school. Getting together with family and friends. It is also one of the most expensive times of the year and that can cause stress. You have already paid for Thanksgiving and you may done some early shopping on Black Friday, Small Business Saturday or Cyber Monday.

Here a few ways to get financial relief during the holidays.

  1. Sending Christmas cards can be expensive. The mail is slower then ever and cost more. Just printing cards is expensive. Go digital this year. Take your own photo (matching pajamas makes for family fun) and send a digital card.
  2. Price match everything. Most retailers, especially the majors like Target, Walmart, Best Buy and many more, will match competitor’s pricing. Start online to make trips to the store more efficient.
  3. Take advantage of free shipping.
  4. Make a list of everyone you want to buy gifts for then make a budget.
  5. Shop a little each week rather than sending a lot of your money out the door all at once.
  6. When shopping online, look for pay overtime options. There are a lot of no fee options like Affirm and Klarna.
