PLAN GET-TOGETHER
Visiting relatives and planning get-togethers individually can be costly and time consuming. Instead, plan get-togethers with some family members and split the costs of food, drinks and other expenses.
GIFT WISELY
Gift-giving does not have to be expensive or extravagant. You can create personalized homemade gifts that your family members will love. Remember that quality time is also a gift, so you do not need to leave your account in the red to give gifts to your loved ones.
MAKE YOUR OWN EID GIFTS
Although many families love to exchange gifts as part of their Eid celebrations, it doesn’t have to drain your wallet! Consider making some handmade gifts, which can be both heartfelt and money-saving.
REUSE PREVIOUS EID OUTFITS
Dressing in your best outfit doesn’t necessarily mean having to buy something new. People often feel pressured to buy something new every Eid, but this isn’t always financially feasible. Consider reusing or restyling outfits from previous Eids, and passing on outfits to younger children as they grow out of them.
KEEP CHARITABLE DONATIONS WITHIN YOUR MEANS
Eid is a time of gratitude and compassion, and one popular way to celebrate is by giving back to those in need. While it’s important to support charitable causes, it’s vital to consider your financial circumstances and donate within your means.
PLAN INEXPENSIVE ACTIVITIES
Plan inexpensive activities like family games or watching movies at home. These can provide enjoyment without high costs. You can watch a marathon of family-favorite films or series. Take turns picking movies to ensure everyone enjoys the experience.
STICK WITH YOUR PLAN
It is easy to get carried away with the fun activities that come with the season and be tempted to spend more. DON’T DO THAT! Remember that you have crafted a personal plan to provide maximum enjoyment with minimum stress
