Plan Ahead for Holiday Spending with a Club Account

The winter holiday season is a time for joy, family and festivities, but it often comes with a hefty price tag. Many of us end up doing our holiday spending a bit too freely, leading to financial stress come January. Get ahead with a Club Account so you can enjoy the holidays without overspending.

Save early, avoid stress

Starting your holiday savings plan in the fall gives you a significant head start. By spreading out your savings efforts over several months, you’ll have more time to accumulate funds and avoid the last-minute scramble to find extra cash or the temptation to rely on credit cards.

Your custom holiday savings account

A Club Account is a special savings account designed to help you set aside money for specific financial goals. With a minimum starting deposit of just $5, it’s an easy and accessible way to save. Here’s how to make Club Accounts work for your holiday spending:

  • Contribute regularly. Put money aside periodically, even if it’s a few dollars here and there, to take advantage of the time between now and December.
  • Try automatic transfers. By setting up regular deposits from your paycheck, you can steadily grow your holiday fund without having to think about it. Once you’ve successfully navigated one holiday season with your Club Account, planning for future holidays will become second nature. You’ll be on your way to making holiday budgeting a lifelong habit!
  • Customize your account. Another fun feature of Club Accounts? You can rename them to pretty much anything you’d like. If you could use a little extra motivation to keep from spending that money, you might consider naming the account your “Hands-Off Holiday Spending Budget.” Track your progress toward multiple savings goals using the Savings Goals tool in Grow Online and Mobile Banking.*

By saving for your holiday spending early with a Club Account, you can enjoy the festive season without the financial stress.
