How I Cut My Easter Budget in Half (Saved $200)

Flo Moore Season 1 Episode 13


Easter has quietly become one of the most expensive holidays of the year. Between the matching outfits, Pinterest-worthy baskets, wrapped gifts, and professional portraits, the costs can spiral out of control—fast.

It’s easy to feel like you have to do it all. To make it magical. To keep up with what everyone else is doing. But let me just tell you… you don’t.

You don’t need to spend hundreds of dollars per child to create a holiday that’s special and meaningful.

Here’s the truth: You can have a beautiful, joy-filled Easter without breaking your budget. You can skip the cheap junk, avoid the pressure to “go all out,” and still create memories your family will treasure.

This year, let’s do it differently. Let’s be intentional. Let’s be wise. Let’s celebrate Easter in a way that feels good—and doesn’t leave you with a financial hangover.

Because when you plan ahead and make smart choices, everyone wins.
