No debt for Christmas!!!!
I started YNAB last February and have reduced my credit card debt by half. At the same time, I began saving for Christmas. This year, for the first time, I was able to give the gifts I wanted to give and pay for them IN ALLOCATED MONEY! without incurring any debt. This is huge for me. It feels "clean" and guilt-free to be able to buy what I want, as my remaining credit card debt might as well be called "The Ghosts of Christmas Past." It also made me more thoughtful about my gift-giving.
THANKS FOR A HAPPIER HOLIDAY, YNAB!

Laurie R that's amazing!!! Way to go! 🎉 This was my husband's and my first year of actually budgeting for this Christmas starting in January and it was such an exciting feeling - I totally get it!

Congratulations and enjoy.
I plan for this to be me next year! Please be sure to tell me how amazing it all was when you’re done :-)(my ‘thing’ is food.... partly due to the wastage of material possessions and partly due to... I can never afford actual gifts 😢)
