The Spring expenses
In this post, you will find the spring expenses. April is here, and all of us are waiting eagerly for the beautiful season of rejuvenation. Warm weather, green cover, colorful flowers and blue sky! That is too much beauty after a long hibernating and harsh winter.
We all are waiting to head out and have a good time enjoying this weather and the energetic vibes of the season.
Spring is no doubt the best of the seasons. It’s not bitterly cold, nor is it scorching hot, which makes it hard not to rejoice!
What are the Spring expenses one has to be wary of?
Spring, along with bringing a lot of beauty, also brings in some bills. This article tries to capture the Spring expenses for the readers to plan their finances ahead . Below are some of the most common spring expenses that might burn your wallet if you aren’t prepared for them.
Allergies
Spring is beautiful, but it’s also the season of pollen, which is the biggest trigger for seasonal allergies. Antihistamines/decongestants, nasal sprays, steroid nasal sprays, eye drops, immunotherapy and much more are commonly resorted to as over the counter medicines. This drugstore trip will generally cost some amount of money.
Spring Closet
After bundling up and layering up in wool and jackets for over months, you desire to adorn yourself with beautiful floral clothing to match up to the weather. This adds up in the end whether you are a family of one, two, three or more.
Home Repairs
In Spring, homeowners usually run across a few repairs regarding the water pipes that have clogged, the rooftops that have leakages, and generally, a home requires a Spring cleaning following a harsh winter.
All of this can come in a lumpsum bill that could overwhelm most of the people.
Travel/Outdoor expenses
After being chained indoors for more than half of the year, we all feel the strong urge to head out, hit the roads, catch flights, travel and have all the fun in the world in this season!
You feel good spending all your time outdoors. Eating out, drinking out, hosting and attending barbeque parties, etc. seem to be an absolute necessity in this beautiful weather.
Taxes
Most Canadians’ income tax and benefit returns are due on April 30, 2019. If you have a balance owing, you must pay it by April 30, 2019, and this can leave you tapped out or struggling to pay your daily bills.
Weather-related electronic devices
Spring brings warmer temperatures, and this is what you waited for all these months! With climate change being real, the heat can get unmanageable without electronic systems to cool your nest. Last summer, we saw how the heat wave affected so many Canadians’ health leading them to hospitals and to potential death. You need to keep aside some money to bring these systems and keep your homes cool for the anticipated summer heat.
These acts- some necessities and other indulgences, all add to soaring credit card bills higher during the Spring season. Plan ahead and space out your expenses. This will help enjoy the Spring beauty without burning a hole in your pocket.
