I had a GREAT time with my family! Even though I didn't get in on the $25 gift exchange. :-)

It isn't about the presents, it is about spending time with my family!!!!

Hello,

I had budgeted $500 for our christmas-related expenses this year. It sounds like a lot, but I purchased gifts for 20 people. I totalled everything up (gift wrap, presents, shipping) and came out with $528. I did go over due to unexpected shipping & handling for one item. I used my debit card and transferred funds from a savings account to cover the purchases. So no debt was incurred this year on Christmas gifts. This is a big step for me, since I usually spent Jan-Mar paying off gift purchases.

Sincerely,
