  • Summary

  • Are you marking your calendars for Black Friday and Cyber Monday? So are we. It looks like shoppers are expected to spend more than ever this year — around $1,700 a person according to Deloitte. We thought it would be fun to bring our pals Jill Sirianni and Jen Smith, cohosts of the Frugal Friends podcast, and the new book: Buy What You Love Without Going Broke: Transform Your Spending and Get More of What Money Can’t Buy back on the show to answer all of your shopping questions. CHAPTERS: 00:00 Holiday Spending Trends and Impulse Control 06:14 Meaningful and Frugal Gift Ideas 10:12 Navigating Unexpected Costs and Community Support 16:02 Credit Card Use and Financial Boundaries TAKEAWAYS: Consider using last year's spending as a guide for this year's budget. Community support is crucial during unexpected financial hardships. Creative limitations can lead to better problem-solving and gift-giving. Don't rely on credit cards for holiday spending if you can't pay it off quickly. Thoughtful gifts can include experiences or personal items rather than material goods.
