Keep track of Christmas spending

Total spent on gifts this Christmas $1095.24 for our family and friends and a needy child. Not bad since we have twenty people to buy for in addition to ourselves. I feel good about knowing exactly where the money went.

I have kept a good record of what we have been spending this holiday season. I just need to gather a few more receipts and this goal will be totalled up and completed.

So far, so good. I have started my shopping by ordering items online. I have recorded each item and the cost. Hopefully I will be as disciplined when my life gets busier in December!
