-
Craft Your Holiday Budget Like a Gift List
Think of your budget the same way you think of gift shopping—you make a list, check it twice. Jot down expected expenses, whether it’s travel, special meals, decorations, or that “one extra present” you always somehow buy. Setting these amounts ahead of time is like giving your future self the gift of peace of mind. -
Let Your Credit Union Benefits Do the Heavy Lifting
Your Coca-Cola Credit Union membership offers perks that can make holiday spending easier. Member-only loan specials, rewards programs, and competitive rates can help you stretch those dollars further—so you can focus on strolling through holiday markets, not stressing at the checkout counter. -
Make Time for Year-End Financial TLC
While you’re stirring gravy or hanging lights, take a moment to review your 2025 finances. Did you reach your savings goals? Are your retirement contributions on track? Sometimes, a quick check-up before December 31 can save big, thanks to tax-advantaged accounts or smart adjustments -
Give Yourself the Gift of Future Planning
There’s something magical about starting the new year with a plan. Whether it’s crushing debt, booking that dream vacation, or building up your emergency fund, mapping out your 2026 financial goals now means you’ll hit the ground running when the calendar turns.
November is the sweet spot — a mix of reflection and excitement for what’s ahead. With thoughtful planning and a little help from Coca-Cola Credit Union, you can celebrate the season without worrying about your wallet. Here’s to a holiday filled with joy, laughter, and the comfort of knowing your finances are as cozy as your favorite scarf.
