In this episode of Life, Lemons & LemonDrops, hosts Greer and Whitnie discuss ways to tackle the list of personal and household business you might need to complete before the year ends. If you’re like most people, deadlines are looming for exhausting healthcare, credit cards, or other financial benefits. It might not be too late to dive deeply into your accounts and services and claim rebates, points, and other valuable discounts, but the time may be very limited.
In addition to taking advantage of benefits you’ve earned or paid for, now is an excellent time to check what services you will need to make your life easier in the new year. Cancel programs you don’t use or that don’t bring value or combine those that may be more beneficial if they weren’t diluted by having split “loyalties.” Either way, pulling out a notepad or a calculator may help you see patterns in spending and usage that need correction.
Once you have shored up your business for the year and set a plan for 2023, consider ways to celebrate that victory. It may be to sit back and sing carols with your family, or perhaps you’d like to pay it forward by donating your time to those less fortunate than you or by just sharing a few of the dollars you saved with the people who’ve provided you service throughout the year (think barista, letter carrier, mechanic, housekeeper, or others in your community who could use a helping hand).
