Did You Spend Too Much?

Our approach to Christmas presents is rather modest, as we try to emphasize the spiritual nature of the holiday. So my wife and I avoid big-ticket items and try to watch the number of gifts our children will be opening on December 25th. So when I saw this piece about being frugal this time of year (and really, ALL year ’round), I read it with great interest.

Can you really be “too cheap?”

After reading the article, do you think you spent too much this season?
