Buying experiences instead of things isn't much cheaper — but it's much better
years ago, when we were saving money for travel instead.
Buying experiences, whether trips or concert tickets, isn't usually any cheaper than buying gifts to give. But we're not doing it to save money anymore — we're doing it because we like it so much better.In 2014, my now-husband and I decided to do Christmas a little differently. We had just spent Thanksgiving visiting my dad and his fiance in Ireland, and were saving money for our upcoming honeymoon to Australia.
Since starting this tradition for just ourselves, I've been able to convince my own family that we should stop exchanging gifts, and we have even stopped exchanging gifts with my husband's family, with the exception of gifts for the children.on gift giving started with Christmas, but slowly spread to birthdays and anniversaries as well.
While we started this tradition to save money, I'd say that buying experiences is as expensive as — if not more expensive than — buying gifts. However, it. It all depends on the number of gifts you buy and how pricey the experiences are. We've realized that our experiences don't have to be fancy or expensive, and the kids don't seem to care or know the difference.
