Christmas is coming and it's high time to think about Christmas tree, decorations, gifts, and entertainment.

Year-end holidays give a chance to pamper our dear ones with the best wished-for gifts. The question is, how will this influence our family budget?

It's not news that most U.S. customers prefer using plastic while making purchases. That's quite easy to charge on credit cards, and equally hard to pay off the balance. In credit spending, planning is the name of the game. That's why Chase has created a new Holiday Spending Planner, an outstanding credit service that will be so helpful for customers this Christmas.

This tool is really unique, as you can even take it with you when doing Christmas shopping. After you have made your personalized plan, email it to your cell phone or your PDA, so that your plan will be right at hand. It helps you to avoid the purchases you didn't plan. That's a surefire method to avoid huge credit spendings on something that you don't really need.

The Planner is also valuable in view of the fact that it provides useful information and holiday tips for all cardholders. Following these tips, one will avoid overspending on credit cards and can easily manage his or her plastics during this busy time.
