Valentine's Day is a day of love where everyone shows their affection to the people they care about, including themselves. For those of you who have a partner, you can celebrate Valentine's by giving gifts to your partner. For those who don't have a partner, you can gift your parents or even yourself with things that can make you happy, such as eating food and watching your favorite movies.
Financial Tips When Celebrating Valentine
When celebrating Valentine's Day, you don't always have to spend large amounts of money, so you don't spend too much on your savings. You can pay attention to the following tips, so your Valentine's celebration doesn't waste money.
Make planning a celebration in advance
Valentine's Day celebration only comes once a year. However, that doesn't mean you have to waste your money or monthly income because there are still many important needs that you have to prepare for, such as routine monthly expenses such as paying utility bills, monthly meal costs, house/apartment/board rental costs, and preparing an emergency fund.
So that your monthly income doesn't run out and you can still celebrate Valentine, you can make plans for Valentine's celebrations in advance. For example, if you want to give Valentine's gift in the form of a cell phone to someone you care about, you can start setting aside monthly income and making savings for it 3 or 6 months in advance.
Limit the use of funds
The second tip is that you need to limit the use of funds to celebrate Valentine's Day. You don't need to force yourself to buy Valentine's gifts by draining your savings. All you have to do is set a fund limit according to your income and savings budget. In essence, avoid giving gifts beyond your current financial capacity.
To save money, you can also make your Valentine's gift with your budget. Making your Valentine's gift will also feel more special to the one who will receive it.
