Philippine Business News / 5 Ways to Avoid Holiday Debt
February 10, 2009, 10:59:41 PM
 Here's some information in how can avoid the debt during the holiday seasons:


1) Decide how much you can afford to spend: This is clearly the most important step. Before heading to the store, you must know the total amount you can afford to spend.

2) Make list and stick to it:
Now that you have a dollar limit in mind, you can start to make your list. Larissa and I have been using an Excel spreadsheet to help with our list.

3) Contact your creditors for better deals: This is the best time of the year to make your credit card banks beg for your business! Many people feel at the mercy of their banks, but that's not the case. The banks are at our mercy.

4) Take advantage of department store card incentives and then transfer the balances: again, I hear people saying I'm crazy for using a high-rate department store card! And again, I say that you just need to be smart about doing it.

5) Pay off the card in full when the bill arrives (if possible). That's why it's important to use a credit card that's going to give you a few months with no interest on purchases. This way, if something does delay your ability to pay in full right away, you can have a little time, at no additional cost, to pay off those charges.

Hope you will like it this kind of information i had posted here in this thread... Thanks and have good day to all of you!!!
