The holidays can be a very stressful time of year when you’re going through financial difficulties. But if you’re savvy, you can get through them with no problem.
Here’s some simple, and frugal gift ideas:
Cook it
If you’re great at baking, your best bet is to make a batch of everyone’s favorite culinary creation.
You can personalize it by giving each person something different based on their taste.
A crowd favorite? Chocolate covered fruit. Here’s a really easy recipe for chocolate-covered strawberries.
Other great ideas include caramel popcorn or a basket of homemade muffins.
Craft It
If you’re crafty, head on over to the Dollar Store!
For a really simple frugal gift idea, buy items that come in packs (kitchen utensils come to mind) and decorate them.
With a little paint or other minor decoration, a simple item can turn into a really nice present.
Packaging is important, so make sure to pick up some ribbon or pretty box to pack your items as well.
Buy It In Bulk
Personal care products such as body spritzers and bath salts are perfect to buy in bulk since they’re often on sale around the Holidays.
If you have a long list to shop for, buy wholesale items at the Dollar Tree. Keep in mind that you do have to buy at least one case of each item.
You can make small gift baskets (or jars) and include fillers such as loofahs and other inexpensive items.
