In years past, many people felt comfortable splurging on the holiday, but this year everyone’s motto is “Save Money on Christmas.” My new holiday savings e-book will help you do just that.
The Sound Money Matters Guide to Holiday Savings compiles 30 of my posts about saving money during the Christmas season. It also includes a holiday budget worksheet not available on this blog or anywhere else. Print this worksheet before you start making your gift list to ensure that your holiday budget won’t put you in the poorhouse come January.
You’ll get all of this for just $5. Simply download the 45-page PDF, which can be opened on any computer. You can read it on the computer or print it for easy reference this year and in the future. Print as many copies of the worksheet as you need.
