*September Competition* There are only 17 weeks and counting until Christmas comes round again, but with the Credit Crunch still hanging over us and ever-tightening finances, there's no time like the present (!) to start budgeting. The first thing to realise is that there's more to Christmas spending than just presents. There are decorations, clothes, parties and travel to think about too. And don't forget about cards, postage costs, and phone calls to loved ones. Then you need to come up with a budget for each of your expenses and STICK TO IT. It helps to make a list of everyone you need to buy gifts for and how much you can afford to spend on them. Then SHOP AROUND. Don't forget homemade or personal gifts: these can be an inexpensive way to make sure the thought really counts. If you browse through our Personalised and Gifts sections, you will stumble on a whole range of gift ideas that don't even require craft skills. For instance, a gift of a photo cushion personalised with a picture of your children would make the perfect present for grandparents without breaking the bank. For the full Christmas budgeting article, click here. To give you a headstart with your Christmas budget, we're offering the chance to win two silver reindeer decorations. All you have to do to win the pair of silver reindeer decorations is answer the two questions below: Question 1: How many different designs of 'the Turds' do we stock? Question 2: In no more than 25 words, tell us why you like the Home and Garden Gifts website. Please be aware that we will use your comments in question 2 along with the first letter of your first name and your surname on our website. Please use the boxes below, or email your answer, name and contact email to competition@homeandgardengifts.co.uk and mark ‘Reindeer competition’ as the subject by midnight 30th September 2008. Competition rules: 1. There will only be one winner. 2. The winner will be announced in the newsletter following the closing date of the competition. 3.
