Liz Gorham Utah State University Extension Family Resource Management Specialist Many people go to great lengths financially to give gifts that dazzle and will be remembered. But they may be sorry in January as bills come in and money is tight. Consider the following points before be-fore you make your next dash to the mall. Don't overspend because of others' oth-ers' expectations. If necessary, discuss dis-cuss a dollar limit with those you exchange gifts with. When deciding on a dollar amount to spend on a child, think of last Christmas. If there had been fewer gifts, ould the child still have been just as hap-' py? Don't try to keep up with the Joneses. Spend only the amount budgeted. When purchasing for children, consider what might be learned from the gift. A good book can help children improve reading skills and expand their minds; a board game can encourage interaction with others; oth-ers; a special shirt can help raise a child's self-esteem. Giving practi cal and fewer, but good quality, gifts can save money the rest of the year. Avoid impulsive and expensive shopping using credit cards. Initially, leave your credit card at home and visit stores just to explore ex-plore prices and features of items. If an item is on sale, consider the interest you will pay if charged to your account. If you know in advance ad-vance that you will carry a balance on your card from one month to the next, check financial magazines for lists of low APR credit card issuers. Mail order shopping can save time, but don't forget to include shipping and handling in the total cost and interest if the item is purchased pur-chased on a credit card. Know what you are getting for the total amount invested, and save sales receipts on all purchases. Giving your time to meet the needs of others may be your best gift, especially if you need to increase in-crease interaction with family members and friends. A coupon good for a service you will perform or a ticket to spend time together for a sports, entertainment or dining event may be more appreciated than anything. ft JS rc&re rvi nvn in rv uu i I mrmamrmrttrtrwmnmm 1 i ' 1 M'l'W mm IQZoom 735 35-70mmmm Zoom Lens 'AutoFocus and Exposure Red-Eve Reducton Flash 7 ffb99 PENTAX IQZoom 28-WQD 28-56mm Zoom Lens 5-Year Warranty!
