Savings on gifts, Clothes, Entertaining and Turkeys

Holiday Gifts:

• Make a List

Holiday Clothing

• Start with what is in your closet already then mix and match: Black Skirts, black pants mix with holiday colors. Solids are best — Red. Maroon, Navy Blue, Royal Blue Royal Purple, Emerald Green, Gold and Silver. Men Red Sweater or Christmas Tie.
• Make a list of events that you’ll probably be attending in December now and think about what you’ll be wearing.
• Consider Thrift and Consignment Stores.
