Well, as of today it is 40 days till christmas and don't we know it maybe it's just me but am sure the adverts ascended on us even earlier this year! There's no escaping it, the shops are shoving seasonal offers down our necks aswell as supermarkets enticing us to christmas dinner dishes.
Sadly right now, at this very moment I am really not feeling festive, all this time of year means to me is everyone being sick with cold and abominably poor. Grinch!! I hear you cry but yes right now I am green, green with envy at those people who have already bought all the presents, arranged the dinner menu and still have money left over to start buying party wear.
That said there is a little spark of excitement, deep, deep down inside me it's a lovely time of year especially for a jumper loving, hot chocolate enthusiast like me.
After spending the day organising (or at least attempting to) presents and the financial crisis they carry, I think I might actually be able to handle this holiday lark.
So in reflection to any naive souls I say take heed!
Christmas Advice
If you haven't already started, start!
Begin by making lists, typical I know but if you stick to a defined list it can stop you overspending.
Research, does Nan really need another candle?
Gift reciept, always.
When you know what you want to buy, look around for the best price.
I'll be doing further posts on this subject so if you have any questions please submit and i'll try and cover it. Also do you have any tips yourselves?
