Snowflakes for Christmas: Done!!

June 11th, 2013 at 02:07 am

My Christmas fund goal this year is $750. Today I just received the final snowflake of cash to complete it! And it was the most unexpected snowflake ever...a check for $13.26 for a Diamond Class Action Settlement. I must have filled out a claim form all the way back in 2008(according to the website) Those legal filings and claims take forever!!

The balance of the Snowflakes for Christmas fund was $688 at the end of May. I have received $25 from USAA rewards, $25 in PayPal fund earned through Swagbucks and now a check for $13.26. That means June earnings are $63.26 and my Snowflakes for Christmas now total $751.26.

Now that wasn't hard at all since those small amounts of money just add right up! Have you meet a financial goal with snowflakes of cash recently? Have you received an class action settlement check, EVER? Was it big or little?

    I love paying for Christmas with snowflakes. Surveys, rebates, and Amazon covered me last year.

    Good on you! Getting Christmas fund fully funded before mid June is a terrific accomplishment and even more impressive since it was funded with small bits. I think I need to return to tracking daily spending because I spend more in those itty bitty expenses like parking, lemonade slush, DIY car wash that use change, than I realize.

    Have you also worked out what you'll buy? It's really been fun to begin to shop for holiday gifts in July as the stress factor is eliminated.
