I love Christmas. I love the lights. I love seeing the Salvation Army bell ringers when I walk into the grocery store. I love the sights, sounds, tastes, and smells of it all. What I don’t love, though, is credit card debt. So many of us end up with credit card debt after the holiday season. This is the time of year when stores and online sellers target us. Today, I want to talk about this. I’m going to give you some ways to save money this season. You might think that’s impossible at this time of year, but hear me out. Not only is it not impossible but you can actually learn to take control of your money. Not just this Christmas, but year-round. So tune in to learn how to stop giving in to those impulse buys and instead apply my best Christmas tips to save money! In this episode, you will hear: Questions to ask before you buy a product. Why I prioritize experiences over gifts these days. How to cut down on your phone bill. How planning your meals can help you save money. How subscriptions drain your money. Why you should look at discounts offered by the groups you’re involved with. How to use your “fun money” wisely. Why you should skip the extended warranty when you buy a new car.
