It got me thinking about the Christmas period. The mad rush to buy gifts, the worry and anxiety about cooking up the big family meal, and even the lead-up and all the events that go with it. It can be such a crazy time, but also one of the best times of the year, don’t you think?

Have a little fun with it 

Christmas is a time of fun and laughter, as well as spending time with friends and family and enjoying each other’s company. So you may want to take some time to ensure that this Christmas you have a little fun. It might be that the whole family commits to wearing Christmas jumpers, maybe having a little competition for the worst or funniest. It might be that you take turns hosting events and do things differently with children to make it magical. You could even spend time decorating your house and going overboard with the lights and the tinsel, just for the fun of it. 

Start saving and planning now

It is important to remember that Christmas costs money. No matter how hard you try there will still be gifts you want to buy, the food you want, and certain things you want to do during the Christmas period. Instead of it being a time when you are worried about money, why not start saving now? You could build up quite a bit of money between now and then, and it could really save you using credit cards.

You could start saving by putting some away each week, maybe sacrificing a takeaway or two and saving the money instead. Another suggestion is to save all your change in a jar and then change it back in December, you won’t believe how it clouds all add up. 

Throw a Christmas bash

Christmas is such a fun time to be around friends and family, so why not use the time of the year as an excuse to throw a Christmas party? You could have a great time making it really special, serving up Christmas food and drinks, and just generally catching up with your nearest and dearest. 

Have fun with the family 

Finally, why not ensure that this year is the year that you have some fun with your family. Christmas is such a magical time, especially if there are children involved. Make sure you go to Christmas events, such as meeting Santa Claus or special Christmas fairs. It is a great way to enjoy the festivities and there is always something going on at this time of year.
