We hope you have had lots of fun over the xmas break – and since coming back to work all we have heard from friends and family is how much money christmas costs!

The average cost of Christmas for each eprson is around £900 – this includes food, presents, travel, time off work – and its a lot of money. How do you save for christmas without bankrupting yourself throughout the year?

Saving with a Credit union is not only easy, its also a much more sensible solution if you would like to save for a certain item or event.  You cant take your money straight out the cash machine, which makes saving large amounts of money easy. Plus any interest made by the Credit Union is paid back to members or used in the local community – it isnt paid into fat-cat bank employees pockets!
