[...] This year we’ve decided to scale back as much as possible, and I’ve even bought and paid for most of the gifts already. The biggest gifts, both in scale and number, that we’re giving are to the children and even those are to be given spread out over the first two nights of Hannukah and then Christmas Day. We’re not buying presents for our parents, but rather giving personal items (I can’t be more specific, as my family reads the blog and doing so will spoil the surprise!). I’m only buying practical gifts for my husband- think socks and electric toothbrush heads. [...]

I agree. Having watched my dad go through years of dental surgeries due to some real damage he inflicted on his teeth when he was young (much drinking, less brushing), I can say my teeth are 100% worth it. The surgeries cost more (even with insurance) than good toothbrushes would have and the pain…wow. He needed new implants to hold in his false teeth because the kind you glue on wouldn’t fit in his very small mouth. Something about fragile bones.

The others are good ideas too. I haven’t seen solar rechargers for sale in a while.

Life insurance is not only for own good but for you family future. Nobody can ever tell when will be the end of our life. It can be today, tomorrow,next month or next year. It’s a great feeling to see your family to be financially secured. So it’s better to think for our family future and be ready. Like what you said “better safe than sorry”
