Smart Holiday Shopping T Planning and Contro You say it every year after the holidays: “Next year I’m going to spend less money.” It’s easy to get carried away. It can be just as easy to stay financially fit, even during the busiest shopping season of the year. The Credit Union National Association, the trade association for credit unions, and the Consumer Federation of America, Washington, D.C., suggest these holiday spending tips: 1. Budget your spending and set goals: Start with a realistic idea of how much you can spend on holiday gifts, food, travel, and so on. Add it up and really give serious thought to what you can afford. Think about where you might cut back and stick to your budget. 2. Make a list: Shop from a list to avoid impulse purchases that could leave you snowed under in debt at the end of the season. 3. Comparison shop: Take the time to find the best deal. Fight the urge to get your shopping over with as quickly as possible, and, for the procrastinator: Don’t wait until the last minute! 4. Trim your interest payments: If you must pay with a credit card instead of using cash, use a card with a low-interest rate, like Unison’s Visa® Platinum or Visa® Platinum with Rewards card. 5. Save, Save, Save: Open a Christmas Savings account at Unison and save for the holidays throughout the year. Dividends are compounded and credited to your account monthly at
the same rate as a Share Savings account, with no minimum required. Make deposits of any amount at any time or set up automatic transfers to the account each month for hasslefree contributions. The balance of your account, plus dividends, is available for withdrawal whenever you decide to do your holiday shopping. 6. Uh oh, I went over my budget: Just in case Rudolph runs away with your Christmas budget and your spending gets a little too jolly, we are here for you! Unison can help you consolidate your debt with a low interest unsecured loan. Sign up to make biweekly payments and pay your debt off even sooner! The bottom line is, treat your Christmas spending as you would any other expense you have by putting money aside for it on a monthly basis. Have a budget and stick to it.
