Shopping tips for holiday gifting
It’s easy to get overwhelmed with holiday shopping and end up spending way too much. That’s why it’s wise to start with a list of holiday expenses. For example, keep money aside for gifting the main people in your life, especially if you know they want higher ticket tech items.
Start by determining the maximum amount you will spend on buying the gifts. Ensure you use only the money you have set aside. Next, create a shopping list, each item should have an assigned limit. Also, do your online research for best priced tech items, and take advantage of pre holiday sales (i.e., Black Friday and Cyber Monday). Final smart shopping tips for this holiday season, include:
- Do your holiday shopping with a debit card or a cash plan. Shopping on a credit card makes it easy to overspend.
- Use Black Friday deals to your advantage.
- Shop online to save time and money with comparison shopping.
- Buy a few generic gifts in case you have to gift someone at the last minute or you have forgotten someone.
- Start saving early to have some big cash loaded to splurge on those pricier gifts (i.e., Apple watch Series 4).
