Some of us heard of Ready Set Holiday .com on The View yesterday, but many of those probably forget the URL, I did, but found it. For those who don't even know what I'm talking about, but need assistance during this rough time, or want to know more about their specific Holiday Planner service, read on!
ReadySetHoliday has a Microsoft Office Excel spreadsheet to download, all ready and set to get you ready and set for any holiday trouble you might not realize would pop up (but probably definitely would without this). You can make a budget for both gifts and preparations (including travel, groceries, decorations, etc.). And of course you can make a gift list with specific gift ideas (don't forget the pets and youngin's!) and budgets. You see how well you're doing with your budget, too.
There are also Excel tabs to help you plan your holiday cards recipient list (don't forget that loyal mailman who brings you your packages filled with fashionables!) that convert ready to make pre-set labels, printable on Avery labels. (A much needed link there.)
Last but not least, there's a huge checklist tab to help you prepare through every step from organizing (getting ready) to greetings & gifts, to decorations, to scheduling appointments like haircut, wax, and manis, to baking & planning, to fun & events, and finally to after the holidays. Dun dun dun. Don't worry, with this budget planning help, you might not live through my humorous screen shot of the After list, above (click for full image).
And actually, ReadySetHoliday.com is actually a lot more than this planner tool! You can shop directly from there (through Sears), get tips & recipes, and there's even a Kid Zone, plus more. Get ready to visit the most lifesaving Holiday website, and be set through New Year's!
