I just went through all of our plans for this year's holiday season and I was just surprised at really how much less I plan on spending overall. It kind of just makes me think about the actual point of the holidays and it is nice, but you cannot help but think about the reasons for all the changes. I just hope we can all be safe and enjoy what little time we have together.

There's a good thing in every bad thing. Or You can double the present next year?

Yes, it a good idea to spend less and save some money. It is important to have an emergency account. It is lovely to have saving pots for future expenses like car insurance, car MOT tests and car repairs. Also home insurance is cheaper if you buy it yearly. I will try to spend less during the Christmas holiday. I hope you remain safe and enjoy the Christmas holiday time.

I'll be spending about the same but I never really host the big holiday meals or anything just my Christmas shopping budget will be a bit less because of circumstances.

Many are wondering about the changes this generation has experiences.. I am thinking of the prophecies of Jesus, about the end of this system, in Matthew 24th chapter.. He told about the signs of the end and He also preached about God's Kingdom.. I found an article about this subject..

Our spending has really been cut back ever since the lock down was first in place in March. It is good to put first things first and to have some joy in your life. Yes, we have to be sober about the cause of all of this.

That's what should be what's important. The time spent and not so much the money you spend. Yes, our economy is counting on people feeding into it, sure. Now more than ever. However, a lot of people don't have savings. So, that's just as important. Because we could all use some.
