1. 🎁 Set a Gift Budget Before You Shop
Decide on a total holiday spending limit and stick to it—no impulse buying, no last-minute surprises.
2. 📝 Make a List (and Check Prices Twice)
Compare prices online, use coupon apps, and look for holiday discounts before purchasing.
3. 🤝 Try Experience-Based or Low-Cost Gifts
Homemade treats, shared activities, or handwritten notes cut spending while adding meaningful, personal touches.
4. 🛒 Avoid the “Holiday Creep”
Stores push early deals—only buy what you planned, not what looks tempting.
5. 💳 Pay with Cash or Debit
Using cash (or debit) keeps you from racking up debt that follows you into the New Year.
1. 📊 Review Your 2025 Spending
Look back at where your money went—identify patterns, waste, and opportunities to save.
2. 🎯 Set 3 Clear Financial Goals
Examples: build a $500 emergency fund, pay off one credit card, or save for a PCS move.
3. 📅 Automate Your Savings
Set automatic transfers weekly or on paydays. Small amounts add up faster than you think.
4. 🧾 Create a Fresh Monthly Budget
Adjust for changes like BAH increases, bills, subscriptions, or financial goals.
5. 📈 Meet With a Financial Counselor
Start strong with guidance, accountability, and a personalized plan for 2026.

🌀 The 2-Minute Reset
Feeling stuck, stressed, or mentally overloaded? Sometimes all it takes to regain focus is two simple minutes.
In this short video, we share the PWL Tip of the Week — The 2-Minute Reset.
Step away from your desk, stretch, refill your water, or just breathe deeply.
This mindful pause helps interrupt stress loops, clear mental clutter, and bring you back to the moment — calm, refreshed, and ready to re-engage.
Take a couple of minutes to reset your mind and refocus your energy.
Because focus starts with calm. 🌿
