Is anyone else broke, like me because of the holidays?????

i am so broke and unfortunately have to charge a lot of gifts on the cc. I am trying to get my bills to come down and it AIN'T happening!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have such a big xmas list. I have a large immediate family which I buy for... plus i tend to be on the generous side even though I dont have a pot to pi$$ in rigt now!!!Chat Icon

Its so hard b/c my checks from work cover my bills. I dont get a bonus.... I live check to check so when this big added expense comes, its overwhelming... I tutor and make extra money but thats for food, gas, etc....

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!


VENT OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Chat Icon

I hear ya, Kristi. We set aside $ for holiday gifts, but we totally forgot to account for all of the get togethers with our families and friends. Those hostess gifts, dinners out, cab rides can add up after a while! Chat Icon

Yes- I love the holidays, but it's such a huge expense! And we have to travel quite a bit by car to see both families. I cringe to think of what we will spend on gas from Point A to Point B to Point C and back to Point A! Chat Icon
