The question is how can avoid us all these damages? If you think about it lightly It could reach two conclusions. One would be that there is no escape, simply spending the holidays cannot be avoided. And another conclusion might be not to celebrate Christmas. They are two conclusions extremists, the best thing in these cases is to try to achieve a good balance, a balance where Yes spend something but do not overtighten. We set ourselves a goal an expenditure ceiling, and never spend that stop. To set the stop is necessary to verify how much we have in our savings, these we will assign a part to costs of Christmas, but never uses all your savings on celebrations. Below I will give some ideas to help achieve some balance, not to lose the celebrations but without excessive spending: not to rent a party room, use our House, or that of a willing relative, or can even make an informal celebration in the sands of a beach near by the evening, or a park having barbecues for public use. Do not buy fireworks, lately have a high price.

In addition is almost literally burn the money in a few instants. You can enjoy perfectly watching the sky, while other people light up their Fireworks. Do not buy postcards, send postcards by internet. It should educate and educate our family about the need for a change of opinion about the festivities, stop accepting the holidays as a time of excessive consumerism. Christmas should be a time of peace and meeting with family and friends, nothing more simple than that. Therefore you do not need to buy a Christmas tree that cost U$ 50, nor buy none of these expensive ornaments, have much more value if we let artists experts (our children) are responsible for creating their own embellishments. I leave you some ideas about what our children can achieve: If we give them sheets to draw and color Christmas themes, then we can use them to decorate the House shell nuts, washable paint, vinyl and thread tail, are enough materials to decorate the Christmas tree.
