Managing money is an art. No, really it is. Learn to get it right and you are good to go. With Eid holidays drawing closer, the first thing we need to get straight is how we are prioritizing our spending; especially for the festive occasion that’s right around the corner. Here are a few cutbacks you can make during Eid ul Fitr
Don’t bring credit cards
Credit cards can sometimes do you more harm than good. Hence, it’s better to fix your budget beforehand and spend accordingly. With credit cards, getting that extra pair of sandal that you don’t need becomes a bigger temptation to fight. Save yourself that trouble!
Don’t shop till you drop
Check out the stores online and get an idea of the prices. If necessary, take notes on your phone; categorize your selections; so you don’t walk out of the mall with dozens of packets filled with things you actually don’t want.
List it
Avoid shopping for every single family member; instead, list out their names along with the specific item you want to present to them. Challenge yourself to pick atleast some of the items at a price lower than your actual budget. The skill of a true shopper is getting a true steal at the lowest price!
