Can't believe summer's soon over, fall is here before we know it, and the Holiday season is just going to sneak up on us!

How time flies! Planning ahead is so essential in this fast-spinning world we live in! I say planning and spreading out the budget, makes good money-saving sense (and cents) nowadays.

I told myself year after year that I'm going to gradually buy, throughout the year, gifts off my Christmas list of people I give gifts to. That way I don't end up being broke at the beginning of the year of all time! January, is when my pocket has that big hole and paying off credits doesn't make a good start of the year I tell you. But I'm just on panic mode again now thinking that next month is the start of the -ber months already!

Well, I'm just writing a short post to remind parents about the tax-free back-to-school week end shopping. From what I gathered, it's going to be the week end of the 21st through the 23rd of this month. I don't usually go to this tax-free week-end shopping because the huge crowd just makes me feel dizzy, but these are the days when every penny saved can surely help stretch the budget, especially to me who has 4 kids to buy for!

If you're looking to save for your back-to-school purchases like me, this tax-free week-end may be worth a try!
