Budgeting for the

Holidays – Part 2From Jameson Van Houten and Stonegate Financial

Group

Recap: Part-1

We discussed splurging at the end of the year,

rather than in the fall to ensure that you have

enough money to cover all of your expenses.

Saving now for future expenses is always key,

especially when it comes to the holiday season.

If you find yourself with extra money at the end of

the year, consider putting some of it away into a savings account for next year’s expenses.

Shop Around

Always try to find the best value for whatever it is

that you are purchasing.

Though you may have to brave the crowds, purchasing SOME (not all) items on Black Friday

can assist you in your money-saving efforts.

Pay attention to ads, sales and more.

Coupons, deals and promotions!

Don’t Spend More Than You

Have

Always remember to stick to your budget when it

comes to purchasing items or taking a vacation

at the end of the year.

Try to dig up your receipts from last year, and

budget according to those totals shares
