With the cost of almost everything soaring, it will be important to save money during holiday shopping this year. Here are five ways to make your money stretch further:ย
- Shop early and often, compare prices, and watch for price drops.
- Be sure to check for coupons before you buy.ย
- Use shopping apps like ShopSavvy that run in the background while comparing prices. It will alert you the minute what youโre looking for goes on sale. Also, use coupon codes on top of cash-back offers.ย
- Become a loyal shopper of your favorite brands so youโll be alerted to sales first.
- Talk to your family about scaling back on gift-giving this year. Maybe do a Secret Santa exchange and buy for one person instead of everyone.ย
