B It’s fun to get presents. It also feels good to give to others. So what’s the best way to budget (预算) your money and shop wisely(明智地)? Susan Beacham has some advice. “My first tip is to make a list,” says Beacham. She suggests that kids talk with their families about to whom they should give gifts and how much they should spend. Take the list with you to the store. “Make sure that you do the maths,” says Beacham. “If you spent $30 on someone you were going to spend $25 on, you’re going to have to spend $5 less on somebody else.” What to do if you just can’t stop buying things once in a mall? The answer is pretty easy – bring only a small amount(数量) of money with you. If you see something more expensive that you really want to buy, wait a few days and see if you’re still thinking about it. Chances are, you won’t even remember it. Do you have enough money? If not, make changes. And don’t forget – not everyone needs a store-bought gift. Some of the best presents are free. 44.According to Beacham’s advice on shopping wisely, kids should do the following EXCEPT _____.
