Top 5 Christmas Tips from Integrity

It's time to finish up, or start your Christmas shopping. Here are a few reminders to set you up for success.

1. Make a list! By planning out your shopping ahead of time, you can greatly reduce unnecessary spending.

2. Set a limit! We normally have two, one for our immediate family, and another for the extended. Make sure it fits in your budget.

3. Get crafty! Sometimes the most thoughtful and appreciated gifts are the ones that we create and not buy.

4. Look for the sales! There are tons of special promotions and coupons throughout the entire month. By taking the time and researching the sales, you could save hundreds of dollars by only shopping on those days.

5. Free shipping! Don't spend all day driving around town, when most of the big name online retailers offer free shipping.
