What kind of Christmas saver are you? Take our quiz to find out
The lead-up to Christmas can be a magical time, especially if you have young kids. Decorating the tree, making Christmas cards and snuggling up as a family to watch festive films are all part of what makes the season so special, but, for many families, it can also be a time when budgets are squeezed. Buying presents for loved ones can be costly alone, and with the kids off school, parents often find themselves spending more on days out and activities too - not to mention the cost of food when cooking Christmas dinner for the family.
Fortunately, there are a number of ways parents can ease the financial pressure of Christmastime. Putting a small amount of money aside each week, cutting out expensive habits and taking advantage of coupons and voucher codes are all small steps you take right now to have a stress-free Christmas next year, and joining Park Christmas Savings is a great place to start.
