How to Save Money Over Christmas

Christmas time is one of joy and festivity! Family and friends sharing time together, the beach, BBQ’s…

Unfortunately all of this great time can be ruined by stress over money - it's a common scenario, too many people to shop for, too little money... We’ve come up with a few ideas to help you spread your money further and even make a little extra cash over the busy Christmas period!

Budget
Boring we know, but it really is essential that you know how much money you have to spend, and how many people you have to buy for. It makes it easier to choose something by sticking to a price range. Also don't feel as though you have to spend loads of money to spoil your loved ones and show them that you care! Simple gestures like posting them a gorgeous, handmade card or present are just as great.

 
Be organised
Got presents to send to loved ones who live far away? Whether they live overseas or nationally, make sure you send your Christmas parcels early to save money and make sure they get to their destination in plenty of time. For mailing deadlines click here. Get organised super early, and not only could you save money, you could also score a little extra! Every time you send a parcel from your local PostShop from November 1 you can go in the draw to win a $10,000 Prezzy Card - so what are you waiting for? Get sending! Click here to find out more.
 
TradeMe!
Be ruthless, and sort out some clothes, CDs, books, makeup and perfume that you don’t wear or use anymore. Sure you won’t get a million bucks for them, but they will get you more money than sitting in your drawer. TradeMe is also a great place to gift buy… There are some awesome brand new items on there that are super cheap.
 
Hit the web
Say no to hectic malls, crazy shoppers and ridiculous prices by shopping online. You can cruise through online stores whenever you like, whether you’re at home or at work, without any of the stress that comes with running through shops during the silly season. Click here for a list of some of our fav online shopping stores and get your Christmas shopping under wraps.
