✨ And a Gift!: book your career consult for FREE through Friday 12.8.23 • code CCFREE2023 ✨ 

If there’s 1 thing the Holidays + Career Development have in common: it’s money. 

🌱 Ideally, being smart with money. 

Being a new Women Owned Business (WOB) small business owner whose other side of business is supporting small + local businesses @rochestershops 💗 I know a few things about both. 

🌱 Here are my holiday money saving’s #ProTips:

1. #ShopLocal: along with being more fun, more unique, more sustainable … it is often more affordable!

• you will find higher quality goods 

• often less expensive than big box 

• and less likely to go unused

~ that’s because love, thought, + a real human is behind them ~

1. #Reuse: Yes. We have a dedicated space for reused gift bags + tissue paper

• ribbons are saved 

• paper is folded 

• bags are renewed 

~ better yet sew your own bags + if you do buy new, buy local or low-cost stores ~

1. #ShopSmart: I say shopping with credit works when it puts $ back into your pocket to shop local 

• I bank 2% cash-back cards 

• always use these for gas + groceries 

• and deposit cash-back into my bank account

~ find a high yield savings acct via Nerd Wallet for monthly interest paid to you! ~ 

🌱 In addition: shopping sales, sticking to your list, + cultivating a less-is-more-thoughtful mindset w #ShopLocal • majorly • helps. 

✨ I’m basically done holiday shopping + under-budget at that ✨ 

What are your tips??

Cheers to being you best you! ✨
