Retrieved from: www.happyholidays2015.com

Ho-Ho-Ho, Christmas is just around the corner! Indeed, Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year not only for kids who are so excited to receive their presents but also for adults who are dying to receive their Christmas Bonuses. As Filipinos, Christmas is not Christmas without our gift-giving to our families, loved ones, friends, co-workers and inaanaks (goddaughters and godsons). If you have lots of people to give to, it is much better and more convenient to prepare months ahead so you can plan properly, avail of the discounts and save money. So join me as I prepare our family's Christmas Gift List for this year's holiday season. 

How I Prepare Our Family's Gift list

1. List all Your Recipients-  Write down all the names of those people to whom you will give  gifts. You can also download my FREE CHRISTMAS GIFT LIST. Don't forget to keep this list as your reference for the next Christmas season so you don't have to start from zero again. 

2. Make a Budget - Write down your budget for each gift that you will give and ensure that    you always stay on your budget to keep your wallets or bank accounts healthy even after     Christmas. 

3. Decide on What Gift to Give - Looking at those people in your list, decide on what gift matches each person. List your ideas opposite to that person's name like his/her favorite hobby, movies, wanted things, etc. 

4. Choose Where to Buy - Identify the shop or place where you would like to buy your gifts based on your own convenience and of course budget. It is advisable that you do your shopping ahead of time to ensure that every gift has been bought and to buy in bulk so that you can avail of the deals and additional discounts for buying in bulk. Actually, most of the gigantic sales are coming on the day right after Christmas so maybe, you can plan ahead for your gift list for the Christmas next year. This is also a brilliant idea. 

5. Wrap your gift nicely. You can also make your own gift tags printed on a sticker such as the one I made below and stick them on each of your gifts. 

That's all, you guys! Have a Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year from Khorry with LOVE!!!
