Christmas Club

my little trainee from long ago! currently manager of customer care so I must have done a good job.






Too early to be thinking about Christmas? No way! it's always time to think about SHOPPING! With this in mind, my banking buddies have formed this little group so we can all get together once a month & hang out. Each time, everyone (except the hostess) puts $10 into the club bank account and then in November, we're all going on a shopping trip somewhere for a weekend. The funds we've squirrelled away throughout the year will cover the costs of the hotel & some meals, maybe some gas to get there (depending on what the freaking pumps say by next November!). So you see, it's a genius plan that will enable us to have a great weekend & our only expense at that time will be the actual Christmas shopping & the rest will seem 'free' since we'll have our kitty to spend on the expenses.

Great idea! We used to do that many moons ago,but suffered a flat tire on the Renous -Plaster Rock Hwy. which was not an anticipated cost! lots of fun anyway.O.N.

I knew you'd understand! : ))) Hopefully we can avoid car troubles even if they do make for good stories later.
