DON’T GET YOUR
tinsel in a tangle
You’re less likely to get financially entangled if you:
Make a list and check it twice.
Write down your shopping
list and set realis琀椀c spending
limits for each person you
intend to purchase gi昀琀s for
(1 though琀昀ul present, not a
sack full of novelty land昀椀ll). If
inspira琀椀on fails, go with gi昀琀
cards as these can buy a lot
during the Boxing Day sales.
Price comparison magic.
Before making a purchase,
use the power of price
comparison. Compare
di昀昀erent stores, or use
price-comparison websites
or apps to ensure you’re
ge琀�ng the best deal. Ask the
salesperson for a price match
else move on.
Coupon crusade.
Look for coupons, discounts,
and cashback o昀昀ers, both
online and in-store. A quest
for savings can o昀琀en yield
impressive results.
Early bird wins.
Don’t wait un琀椀l the last
minute, start your shopping
early to take advantage of
sales and avoid last-minute,
higher-priced items.
Track your spending.
See where your money is going
so you can be a budget master.
