Money tight? Gifts from the Dollar Store sound too cheap? Lemme upgrade u!!
Here's a few holiday tips for those of u ballin' on a budget:
#1. Cook dinner for your family. Christmas isn't all about the gifts anyway, so why not help out your mom by cooking, buying some food, or helping out with the setup-it will be appreciated and u won't look like a complete failure for the day!
#2. Make picture albums for your family. Nothing shows u care better than giving back pictures that everybody else already has! Go to your local Wal-Mart & get a photobook for about $5-10 and fill it up! (Don't try this 2 yrs in a row)
#3. Make Christmas cd's! Create a festive cover on Photoshop or any editing program, download some ol' school hits (u can't go wrong with the Temptations or Luther), and wrap em' up!
#4. Write a special holiday poem for your family! Anything from the heart is a tear-jerker...put it on a nice grade of paper from Staples-nobody will notice u didn't buy anything!
Tis the season 2 be frugal!
