According to the survey, 60% of respondents believe that year-end purchases are "tension", 41% feel they are forced to spend more than it could and 53% feel they have no money for gifts.
Instead of letting the internal or external pressure to achieve, make the decision to have a time of stress-free end of year celebrations. Just a little creativity, ingenuity and fun.
