To help customers prepare for next Christmas and not get into debt, Yorkshire Building Society has launched a savings account which should help people spread the cost.
Chris Irwin, director of savings at Yorkshire Building Society, said: “Our new Christmas Regular Saver encourages people to save money and help to spread the cost to avoid unnecessary expense or worse, debt.
“For those that don’t save money regularly, using the regular saver will give shoppers a healthy sum to draw on for Christmas without having to rely on credit.
“For some people, it may also show that saving regularly can be achievable and if the habit is maintained after Christmas, it will help start to build up a healthy savings pot.”
