If you have very little experience at budgeting or holiday expenses, if you have no idea where to start thinking about a budget for the holidays or if you have the experience of overspending for the holidays, this book might help you. Most of the ideas presented are not new and are actually pretty obvious once you stop to think about budgeting and holiday spending. Some people may find this interesting and helpful. Others, like me, will not be terribly impressed with the ideas and suggestions presented.  It all depends on the reader and what he/she wants from the book. Even for the person experienced in budgeting and experienced in moderating holiday expenses, there are a few pointers/suggestions that can be applied to holiday budgets of all sizes. I found the book easy to get through. It was not very long and was easily understood, and the ideas were not very new. I received this from the author to read and review.
