Paying for Christmas 2

My second tip in this series is:

Give your time

If things are really tight, give people your time as a gift or make up some gift vouchers of your own. A voucher for 'Five evenings' babysitting' or 'An evening of pampering' might sound like heaven to a young, single mum. Older people might enjoy being taken into town for the afternoon or having afternoon tea prepared for them. Be creative and inventive and you may find that your gifts are valued more highly than any shop-bought item.

Please tune in tomorrow for Part 3.
