Secret Santa
Many families and business’s choose to give gifts for the holidays using what is called “Secret Santa”. Secret Santa is 
when everyone in a group or family puts their names in a hat and each person draws a name, that name is who you will be buying a gift for. When you give gifts using the Secret Santa method you buy a gift for only 1 person in a group, instead of buying for several people and everyone gets a gift. This can be a good option during hard economic times as you do not need to buy several gifts, and instead you focus on one person and buy 1 really good gift.
I have been a part of a Secret Santa a few times in the past years with family and it has worked out very nicely. It was fun to shop for one person and for one person to shop for you. You get to focus on what that one person likes, wants and maybe even needs. I would definitely do it again and I would recommend this gift giving method to anyone that likes to try something new and different.
Secret Santa is great for large families, business’s and friends.

Halloween comes each year without fail and it is hard to not spend money when Halloween products are being sold at every store. I make sure to recycle as much as a I can from the previous Halloween each year so I can save some money. My daughters are 2 years apart and I dress my youngest daughter in a costume that my oldest has worn already, this way I can recycle a costume. When I am done using a costume I offer it up to another family that would like to save some money. Because a costume is only worn for a few hours, it can last through several trick or treating nights. I noticed that the Christmas Tree Shops have kids costumes for as little as $3.00, that is a steal!
