I’m not going to have too much to share as far as our debt diet goes for the next couple of months.  The holidays are in full force and so our credit cards are taking a little bit of a back seat.  But I’m okay with that.  We are still paying double our minimum payments and after the new year we will be back on full force.  We really don’t have much further to go but once the credit cards are paid off it’s time to start on our savings.  :-)

One thing I do want to share with you is a great list I found for Christmas gifts under $20.

http://www.blogsmonroe.com/budget/2009/11/ideas-for-christmas-gifts-under-20/

My favorites for children are cash (for young kids a $5 bill will make their day), art supplies, and handcrafted doll clothes.  I love that last one and think it is a great idea for someone to do as a side business.  For adults I like the idea of a bottle of regional wine, a Christmas tree ornament (add a picture of your little ones for the grandparents), itunes gift card, decorative Holiday pin, and a case for phone or other electronic device.

Check out the site for many more inexpensive gift ideas and other Christmas savings ideas.
