How I grew up and how I followed through my parenting methods. My son, nephews, and niece all get three gifts each. 1. What they need or will need. 2. A toy or item they want. 3. What the gifter thinks will benefit the giftee. My grandparents started this trend in my family because they saw how Christ brith the 3 Wiseman's gave him three gifts only. Plus they were not wealthy but wanted to make sure my father had Christmas. It helped them get through a rough point in life so they continued it from there and now it our main traditions. Oh and another thing only children gets gifts, adults usually get a greeting card with a 5 dollar money donation to a savings account that was already made for them at birth. Hopefully this idea may help others. Thank you for reading.
Rachel, you are hilarious😂🤣 I’m excited for this Christmas because of my Christmas Sinking Fund!!! Intentional, Minimal, FAMILY filled Debt Free Christmas is going to be AMAZING!!!
We are doing an adventure box this year. So part of their Christmas will be given out throughout the year as things to do. Going to see Lion King, going to an amusement park, zoo, stuff like that.
Good luck with your parents not to buy your girl's toys. Your dad may be tough with other people but I bet when it comes to your daughter's bet are off.

Congratulations on your baby girl!! 💕🎉. Concentrating on the real meaning of Christmas and paying cash for gifts! 🎄❤️ “Act your wage”. 😎
We have a Christmas Club through our credit union. It can’t be taken out until October. We have been doing this for over 20 years 😊
Oh I LOVE Emily Ley! I love this!
Ask older Americans who grew up during the Depression what Christmas was like, no money, no credit cards.
Rachael I bet your happy you got body back. You look good. Thank you for the tips. Great show
Congrats on baby!!!
Best way to budget for Christmas is to add more to the budget than you think you need to.
I save up every check starting right after Christmas so I can cash flow it come that time the following year. No unnecessary debt this way.
We got rid of gift giving in our house except for the children. Also Will Smith got real white this year.
🤣🤣🤣
😂
Buy everyone a $25 Gas card and be done with it.
Birdup4life Wow! That’s not a bad idea. While at it, why not give people a grocery store gift card? It's a great adulating present.
Great idea!
Love it!! Best!
I can't stand clutter. I'm constantly throwing stuff out.
Omg rach! Come back to us!
Did Rachael have her baby yet?
