Christmas budget · NZ$ · every week
Your Christmas in dollars — and what to put aside each week until Christmas Eve
Who you are buying for, the kids, Secret Santa, Christmas Day food, the tree and the summer trip. You see the total, the amount for each week until 24 December and a gift list to take shopping. No sign-up.
Want a reminder each week, on the day to put money aside, until Christmas Eve?
The calendar file works without an account. The reminder needs a free account so we know where to send it.- Put aside this week's amount: the table shows every date until Christmas Eve.
- Use the gift list: budget, spent, bought and wrapped. Agree a Secret Santa price with the whānau.
- Keep receipts for Boxing Day swaps; anything left goes to the summer holiday.
All amounts are yours: the fields show examples, not prices or averages. Weekly payments run from today to the day before the date you choose; the last one adjusts. Not financial advice.

Questions
How much should I budget for Christmas?
What you decide: set a limit per person before you go into the shops and let the total update. Add food, decorations and the summer trip so January is not a surprise.
How do I set a Secret Santa price?
Agree one price for everyone — the calculator multiplies the number of Secret Santa gifts by that price.
Is there an Excel version?
Yes: budget with formulas, weekly plan, gift list with bought and wrapped, and a Christmas Day «who brings what» sheet.
Is it free? Do I need to sign up?
It is free and you do not need to sign up. With a free account you can save a copy to your Layers and get a reminder on payment day.
