Comments on: Seriously, If You Don’t Have The Money, Don’t Buy It! http://millionairemommynextdoor.com/2009/12/dont-have-the-money-dont-buy-it/ A self-made millionaire shares her recipe for success, happiness and financial freedom Wed, 01 Sep 2010 02:32:15 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Rachel http://millionairemommynextdoor.com/2009/12/dont-have-the-money-dont-buy-it/comment-page-1/#comment-3077 Rachel Fri, 02 Apr 2010 21:50:26 +0000 http://millionairemommynextdoor.com/?p=1280#comment-3077 It's been 5 years or more since my husband and I have used credit cards to purchase Christmas gifts. We have a very large family...5 kids and numerous relatives to buy presents for. We decide how much we want to spend on each person (including ourselves), and that's it. Having a dollar limit really helps me because then I know how much I can spend when I am looking for a present for someone. We do the same with birthday presents for family members...we spend $20 on presents, and that's it. If we didn't keep gift giving under control we would spend thousands of unnecessary $$ every year.

Most banks offer some sort of Christmas club. I recently discovered http://www.smartypig.com/ which seems like a good way to save.
