Have you created a Holiday Plan or Budget?

Have you created a holiday plan or budget in order not to stress out too much? I have. Especially for Christmas.

I hit the dollar store for interesting books & candles and my local Five Below for gag gifts!

Yes, but it's a 1 pronged plan.... I'm planning to do all my shopping on Black Friday/Cyber Monday or homemade gifts!

Great time to shop. I wonder if there will be great deals this year. I do most of my shopping online.

I set a budget for each person I'm buying for which helps me keep from spending too much. I also like to craft so I make homemade gifts sometimes! This year I'm sewing ornaments :)

My cousin made me wax melts one year when she was strapped. The melter itself costs maybe $20? And then making the wax melts costs even less. Great alternative gift! For partners, you can create a jar full of date ideas using popsicle stocks. Super cheap! For Christmas, I am sending my mom a stocking stuffed with little trinkets! You can get the stocking and little gifts from the dollar store.

Omg yes! Im always the weirdo on ebay looking for out of print books, antiques, hitting up friends for certain jewelry pieces that are hard to find. Hobby lobby for kids (sooooo many interactive imagination toys! Plus a 40%coupon on the app) Budget wise I have even been known to grab things from goodwill and restore toys and such. I shop for the unique to make sure its really what the person is looking for. Depending on how many I have to buy for I really have about 250.00-400.00 limit (400.00 is of i have to do a giftcard)
