💨 Abstract

The holiday season can be financially stressful due to gift, party, and travel expenses, especially with rising debt and inflation. Experts advise setting and sticking to a budget, including regular debt payments, and seeking discounts. Prioritize what matters most and consider low-cost or free activities. It's okay to set boundaries and communicate openly about financial struggles. Focus on creating meaningful experiences rather than spending excessively.
