Making some decisions now about what you will and won’t do during the holidays will allow you to set up a budget as well as talk to any affected family members or friends (and even business contacts) so that you can set their expectations. Does this happen in your family too? Save Money and Plan Now for Holiday Spending.

According to the July 15, 2010 Back to School Survey from the National Retail Federation, the average family spent around $600 per child for back to school needs, split between clothing (37%); electronics (30%); shoes (17%) and school supplies (16%). I love to shop garage sales. Involve Your Child in Planning and Budgeting.
