Family Balance Sheet

NOVEMBER 2, 2022

Back in 2013, I had a year-long series, Christmas Savings Club , to encourage everyone to set aside money each month for the holidays. We paid for many of our Christmas purchases on a credit card and then hustled in January 2013 to pay it off. The series was inspired by my own problem with not having enough cash for Christmas in 2012.

In 2013, The Christmas Savings Club encouraged all of us to save monthly so that we could have a cash Christmas. That’s motivation to take some time to scour Craigslist and some local second hand furniture stores this week. For the past two years, I have held monthly accountability challenges on the blog.

I could have tried to sell the unbroken pieces online, on eBay or Craigslist, but this was definitely instant gratification. Unfortunately, in 2013, there’s no gold left in my jewelry box. The owner of the store that I went to has been in the business for over 30 years and has a good reputation in the area.
