Ways to save money this Christmas- Part 2

      Here is Part 2 of Ways to save money this Christmas. If you haven't read Part 1 yet, please do so.



Great Gifts- Usually its pretty hard to find a good gift. Here are some good ideas that hardly cost a penny.
  •   Re-gift- Its pretty easy to do. When you receive a gift, make sure you are going to use it before you open the box. Make it a little different so its not obvious if the person would see the gift you got them ; and make sure the person that gave you the gift does not know the person you're giving it to. Also make sure its nothing that you can find only in a certain place.
  • Gift Cards- This is a great idea if you have no idea what to give a person.
  • Ask others to pitch in- If you have siblings or other family members, and you want to give a gift to your parents for example, ask them if they would like to give some money to help buy a present. That way  you can buy something pretty big, and it will save you all money.
  • Magazine Subsciption- these are great if the person loves to read.
  • Make a Baking Kit- Put the main (won't spoil) ingredients of one of your favorite recipes (works great with cookies) in a mason jar. Include the rest of the recipe tied with a ribbon to the top of the jar.
  • Coffee mug and Starbucks coffee ground.
  • Recipe Book with all of your favorite recipes.
  • Chocolate bars with red ribbon around them.
  • Magazines the person likes tied together with a ribbon.
  • iTunes gift card- Make sure they own an Ipod!
