  2. This gift guide can be used all year long..birthdays, etc..

    Have a wonderful NEW YEAR! I think it's great that you paid off your debt, isn't a great feeling? Like a huge weight off your shoulders. I'm trying to help my parents to be more conscious of their spending because my Dad is the only provider and I worry about their future, but sometimes it's not easy to change if you aren't ready.
