The Belles dish on what to do, what not to do.. and what we wish you'd try!

The best things in life are free...

We all want something for free right?
I know I carry around points cards to about 30 different places.
I also have a credit card that gives me points on every purchase I make.




Groceries, cosmetics, gas, every once in awhile you end up with a little extra from the places you regularly shop at.


It's like a mini shopping spree!
So, why not apply this to your wedding planning?

If you have saved 60% or more of your wedding budget, why not get a consumer credit card that gives you points towards vacations, furniture, a home renovation store etc.?
You can even get a points card that you can use towards RRSP's, RESP's or even your mortgage!

If you are budget conscience and have a good portion of the wedding saved for, then this is a great opportunity to add to your new life together!

Just make sure you pay your balance every month and close the card once you have collected/used the points you acquire!


So, whether it's a new couch or a few hundred dollars towards your retirement, or tickets to that tropical honeymoon you've been dreaming of, reward cards are a great consideration to work into your planning.


Happy Spending!
