Often, after a large-scale party arranged to celebrate the New Year, regret remains for the money spent on it. If you think over the organization of the holiday in advance, you can significantly reduce costs and prevent an unpleasant "aftertaste". The money saved is best used to buy good gifts for family members.
It is necessary
- - homemade Christmas tree toys;
- - gifts bought in advance;
- - products;
- - dishes;
- - LED garlands.
Instructions
Step 1
Send some of the greeting cards electronically. Those acquaintances, relatives and friends with whom you communicate on the Internet do not need to send expensive postcards. This way, you can even help save the forest by reducing the amount of paper used!
Step 2
If you already have an artificial tree, don't buy a real tree. In addition to saving money, you will greatly facilitate your cleaning job.
Step 3
Do not purchase additional Christmas tree decorations, make them yourself. You can simply tie the bright, shiny brown paper bows from other holidays. Collect the buds, steam them and paint them with gold or silver paint. Cut openwork snowflakes out of foil.
Step 4
LED strings consume 80-90% less energy. Therefore, when buying illumination, be sure to remember this fact.
Step 5
It is better to buy gifts in advance, long before the New Year. This will save you from the pre-holiday overpayment and "random" things that get from a lack of time to think. Make a list of the names of your loved ones, friends and acquaintances to whom you will buy gifts. Next to each name, write two or three things that interest the person.
Step 6
Gift bags can be purchased in bulk, which is significantly cheaper than purchasing these items one at a time.
Step 7
Calculate what you get cheaper, buying disposable tableware or washing real plates. Instead of detergent, you can use mustard diluted with warm water.
Step 8
Think about the festive menu, list and quantity of products in advance. Canned food, vegetable oil can be purchased in small wholesale stores long before New Year's Eve. Purify more water with a filter and cool it down; it will be much cheaper than the bottled version.
