The holidays can be a wonderful time of year. Family, friends, food, and fun. But no one likes the bills and expenses that come with them. Pressure to spend can take its toll financially and mentally.
The workshop will look at strategies to enjoy the holidays without draining your bank account. How to budget for gifts & entertainment, (and stay within that budget), ways to cut costs, how to avoid the barrage of consumer “buy” messages, avoiding the credit card hangover and how to use creative strategies to enjoy without spending more than you have.
