Family Balance Sheet

NOVEMBER 2, 2022

The season of family, faith, food, and…shopping… collective sigh… The spending part of Christmas can get crazy, so I’ve come up with a list of ideas to find some extra cash for your Christmas spending if you’re coming up short. Our goal is to NOT put our Christmas purchases on a credit card.

Our goal is to NOT put our Christmas purchases on a credit card. January will be one giant nightmare when the credit card bills start rolling in. I use this spreadsheet. The series was inspired by my own problem with not having enough cash at Christmas in 2012. Hopefully, that’s your goal too.

What got us through financially? I am totally paraphrasing the year, but had it not been for the money in our emergency savings, we would most likely have used credit cards to survive. I still use my spreadsheet to this day! Our emergency fund. It was a lifesaver, a sanity saver, and a marriage saver.
