During the festive season, many overlook additional costs such as travel, babysitters, and entertainment, which can significantly impact one’s budget. Canna Campbell emphasizes that it’s not just food and gifts—everything adds up.
To save money during holiday festivities, freezing your gym membership is an effective strategy. Most gyms allow you to pause memberships with prior notice, so it’s a practical step if you’re traveling or anticipating limited usage.
Employers should help cover costs for holiday parties, especially when alcohol is involved. Victoria Devine advises employees to request reimbursement for transportation home after work-related events, positioning it as an obligation for businesses to ensure employee safety.
Keeping receipts for any work-related expenses during the holiday season can be beneficial. Come tax time, you can claim these expenses, maximizing any potential deductions.
