Then, enter into the spreadsheet what you spent in each category to keep track of where you overspend and how much money you have left over.

When planning for next year's holiday budget, use the expenses entered into the budget tool from this holiday season's spending to plan a more realistic budget. Start planning early, and shop for holiday gifts all year round to really shave down your expenses.
