In case you haven't realized it, Christmas is only 35 days away. The question I pose to anyone that maybe reading this is, how do you plan on paying for the gifts you will be giving? Have you been saving for it all year long or will you be winging it. As for me, I have a savings account especially for Christmas. Back when I first started, it was referred to as a "Christmas Club Account" Some banks/credit unions may still refer to it by this name. Regardless of what it's called, it sure is alot easier to set aside money through out the year than trying to come up with the money all at one time. I write all this to say, it you haven't already done so, go ahead now and set-up a seperate account with ING Direct, USAA or whomever you chose for your very own 2010 Christmas Savings account. You don't have to wait until Dec 31 to set your financial goals for the upcoming year. Get an early start now and accept this call to action

I dont use my CC unless it is a big purchase or an online purchase, but if I save a big chunk of change for presents than I would spend it all.
My Christmas Spending would be way overboard if I saved for it all year long.
