Help I Can't Afford Christmas.... Don't forget that you can make your own sugar scrub by mixing brown sugar and honey put it in a canning jar and you can give it as a gift. Also you can make your own bath salts by using Epsom salts and some food coloring and scents again put them in a pretty jar. If you have young children you can make play dough for them, home made bubbles, their favorite cookies, sidewalk chalk, home made crayons, ect you can get a box and decorate it and add these treats to the box for a festive look decorate the inside of the box by adding evergreens and pine cones. Also don't forget to look through the dollar store for some great deals! Last year I did my whole shopping at the dollar store PLUS my homemade treats I spent under $100.00 and got everyone something on my list!!!I used brown lunch bags and decorated them and stuffed them full! Everyone had great gifts and LOVE them! I didn't buy clothes for my kids till AFTER the holidays!!! Saved a great deal of money!!!

Sounds like a plan, ME! Plus, the library is a terrific resource.

Love the web sight but I wouldn't buy a book about how to save money! I am too frugal to buy something when there is tons of info on the net for free!
