Consumer Credit Counseling Services of NH & VT Gifts should NOT be the focal point of the Holiday Season!





We have all been affected by the economic happenings of the year that is ending. Let’s take this time to remember the good moments we lived in 2009, cherish our friends and family and spend quality time with our loved one. Regardless of what Holidays you cele...brate, this time of year should be to reflect on the last 12 months, appreciate the positive moments you lived and learn from past mistakes to grow and become better human beings. Don’t let the collective buying angst get to you. Gift buying, should not be the focal point of your Holidays. Show your appreciation towards others by making them a nice card, expressing how much you care for them on a regular basis, and spending quality time and meaningful conversations. It’s NOT all about the gifts. Remember this as you finish your Holiday shopping. And most important of all, give a gift to yourself, make sure you set some money a side during these times of spending to add to you savings account or your emergency fund. Here are some tips to keep your budget under control this Holiday Season.


Take out your credit cards from your wallet!

Avoid malls and stores at their peak hours.

Make a holiday spending budget AND STICK TO IT!

Set a limit on the cost and number of gifts you are buying.

Consider giving homemade gifts.

Set ground rules for the family in terms of spending limits.


Remember, this Holiday Season should be for enjoying your loved ones, and giving Thanks for the wonderful things you have in your life: your health, your work, and your family and friends. Don’t max out your credit card on gifts. Keep your priorities straight and don’t lose sight of your budget. Try to limit the amount of commercials you expose yourself and your children to, and avoid unnecessary trips to stores.


For help making a sound budget this Holiday Season call our office at 1-800-327-6778 or visit our website at www.TakeChargeOfYourMoney.org. Consumer Credit Counseling Services of NH & VT offers FREE confidential budget and credit counseling thanks to our professionally certified staff.
