Overview

Reviews ""Another Christmas cracker from Helen, a bumper stocking crammed full of good advice that will save you money and also cut down the festive stress. Because Christmas is already stressful enough with the organisation, tricky relatives and trying to cook the perfect turkey. But far too many of us also end up with far too much financial stress as well. There's a lot of pressure to make it magical and that can mean pressure to spend too much money. Helen cuts through all of that with straightforward, helpful and practical advice on everything from saving money on the stuff you DO want, to selling off the things you don't. She covers everything from travel to turkeys, from pantomimes to presents and she does it with her usual non-nonsense, unpatronising style. With Helen's advice you can save money this year and every year. Read this book and you can make sure that every penny you spend goes on maximising merriment and minimising money worries. Merry Christmas."" Felicity Hannah, financial broadcaster and journalist ""Anyone who is struggling to make ends meet right now should read this book and put into practice what it says. As usual, Helen has come up with all the practical advice you need to spread the cost of Christmas easily over the year and cut out the burden and confusion of paying for a happy festive season.
