About the book

Christmas in Australia means prawns, pavlova, backyard cricket and, for a lot of us, a scary credit card bill in January. Aussie Christmas on a Budget is a friendly, practical plan for a generous, joyful summer Christmas on a budget you set and stick to.

  • Set one Christmas number and split it across every category
  • Kris Kringle rules and scripts for awkward family conversations
  • A kids' Christmas they'll love, using the "want, need, wear, read" rule
  • A summer Christmas lunch for 10 without the blowout
  • Budget road trips, camping and free school-holiday activities
  • Beat the January hangover: buy-now-pay-later, Boxing Day sales and getting back in the black
  • A week-by-week 6-week Christmas countdown
