The holiday season is an opportunity to slow down, to appreciate the year weโve just had, and to spend time with family, chosen family, and friends. As you start to plan your holiday dinners or create new traditions, you may feel stressed or overwhelmed about staying true to your budget during this time of the year.
One gift-giving tradition that doesnโt need to continue throughout this holiday season is overspending on gifts that your friends and family probably donโt need. Giving someone a gift should come from a place of generosity, not lack.
