Which holiday are you most willing to splurge on?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
For many of us, New Year’s Eve is the one celebration we’re willing to break the bank for. With price fixed dinners and flowing champagne for toasts, it’s hard to go out without making a major dent in your wallet.
I know in the past, if we were lucky enough to find a babysitter, dining out at a favorite place made the evening a night to remember. Now with my kids getting older, it’s harder to have the night for ourselves. We are usually ferrying someone someplace or hanging around to make sure they get home on time. If they don’t have plans, we do something as a family, so no one feels left out. Birthdays have become our preferred holiday for splurging. We each get to pick our favorite place and have the dinner of our choice.
What about you? Do you think New Year’s Eve expenditures are worth it? Or, would you rather avoid the roads with a quiet dinner and video at home? Would you be more willing to splurge on Valentine’s day, an anniversary or a birthday?
