Added $225 to our Christmas Fund

September 23rd, 2012 at 07:07 pm

DH just got reimbursed for some mileage from a work trip, so we were able to add $225 more to our Christmas fund. So now we've got $700 in there, our goal is $1000. Yippee!

I'm so glad I won't be stressing in January when we see our credit card bills from November/December, like we've done for so many years in the past.

    Well done. How did you come up with the $1000 goal for the fund? Do you have specific purchases in mind, or was it an arbitrary round figure?

    We came up with the $1000 budget last year and just stuck with it this year. It includes $150 for each of our kids, plus 4 nieces/nephew, 4 grandparents, 5 siblings...and 3 kid birthdays right before the holidays. Plus our gifts to eachother (DH and I) and some gifts for charity.
