Thats right everybody! The holiday season is just around the corner, can you believe it? This year its going to be okay! Take a few deep breaths and follow the steps below to save HUGE money on your list of gifts!

1. Dont waste a sick day, shop online! (After work hours, of course) The Internet offer a huge selection of top quality gifts at a much lower price than most major retailers.

2. Search by the product that you want, not the store you think youll find it in. As I said in step 1, there are many small businesses out there that offer the same or similar product for much less money!

3. Think small, yet personal gifts, that really show the recipient how much you care about them.

4. Get crafty and make something special. You could make a mini scrapbook or a full sized album, people love to receive photographs as gifts. Search for craft ideas, there are so many craft projects listed on the internet for free, its incredible. There are even projects for those of you who think you arent crafty!

5. Instead of exchanging gifts with your spouse, complete a home project that you just havent been able to afford.

6. Dont purchase unnecessary gifts. If you have friends with children, give them a family gift, like a board game or a new DVD.

7. Search for websites that offer products at wholesale prices to retail consumers. Youll be surprised at home many you find!

8. Set a budget and stick to it!

All in all, #8 is the most important to remember, you know how much you can afford to spend. Set that limit, then divide it by how many gifts you need to purchase. This will give you a rough estimate of how much you can spend on each gift. Dont worry, it can be done, you just need to take the time to set it up, then stick to it.
