POWELL AUCTIONEER Equipment - Livestock - Farms Household - Real Estate REGEN xian cme Has decking the halls got you ducking the bills until April? If decking the halls has you duck- ing the bills until April, it's time to take a hard look at Christmas spen- ding habits, say consumer experts. "Unless you look great in red | velvet and make a living working with elves, Christmas costs you money," says Roberta Allan of the Ontario Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Relations. 'But it real- ly isn't necessary to amortize Christmas expenses through till Easter every year. Two key things can help keep costs under control ---- a simple budget and a few lists. Make that three things. I forgot determination." A household budget is indispen- sable at any time of year. At | | Christmas, it can be a lifetime, ° Allan says. Unless you know how much money you can afford to spend, it's a simple matter to slip in- to serious debt. Budgets are basically lists of ex- penses -- summaries of how much it costs to live every month. First set out all the necessary expenses such as the cost of rent or mortgages, in- surance, food and anything else that cannot be avoided. Expenses for hobbies, savings or activities you refuse to give up should be listed next. Finally, include costs for extras such as dining out, entertainment, personal allowances or anything oshiwa 416-655-4185 COCHRANE AUCTION SERVICE Household - Real Estate - Farms ~ - Equipment - Livestock - Whatever Your Auction Needs ...

"This will give a good picture of your financial situation,"' Allan says. "If you're already spending more than you make, Christmas could cause serious problems. Some people who go into the holidays in this kind of financial situation end up with debt collectors at the door or worse." Credit Counselling Bureaus located across the province offer free help to consumers facing serious difficulties with debts. Counsellors can help set up prac- tical, realistic budgets and debt management progams. When necessary, they can try to arrange loan consolidations and negotiate | manageable payment plans with creditors. "If you really need help, get it now, instead of waiting for Christmas to put you over the edge," says Allan. "The number for the nearest bureau will be listed in your phone book under Credit ~ Counselling." : ' Fortunately, most consumers will be able to deal with Christmas ex- pens~s on their own, she says. Using your budget, figure out how much you can afford to spend on Christmas without stretching the payments on for months. "That figure is the bottom line ---- this is where the determination comes in. Commit yourself to holding that line on spending or you'll be in debt until March again this year. You'll be back on the merry-go-round -- always playing catch-up and never able to save for the coming Christmas." Take 10 per cent of the total "Christmas budget" and set it aside for unexpected or forgotten expenses. Next list all necessary purchases such as a tree, decorations, wrapp- ing paper, cards, and any other items that comes to mind, along with approximate prices. Add up these costs and subtract the total from the Christmas budget. The final list should include the names of everyone who will get gifts from you. Divide up the remainder of the Christmas budget for the gifts. "You might be looking at spen- ding only 25 per cent of your usual Christmas costs, so you'll have some tough decisions to make," Allan says. 'Some people may have to fall off the gift list or maybe you could make a few presents this year. But ask yourself who is really going to suffer because you've had to cut back ---- you're probably taking it harder than anyone else will." Other friends and relatives may well be trying to cut costs too. Perhaps this year, everyone would be happy to set a limit on how much gifts can cost. Some large families draw names and each person buys only one present.
