How to afford all of these wedding showers, wedding gifts, baby showers, graduations?

I am a single gal trying to climb out of debt….I have a limited income and hardly have anything left over after I get paid. I am really struggling. I have a large family & I keep getting invited to wedding showers, weddings, baby showers, graduation parties,birthdays, etc…I simply do not have the money for all of this! I can’t afford to keep buying gifts. What to do?

Maybe explain to your friends the situation you are in and be honest with them , im sure they will still want you there regardless of if you turn up with gifts or not. and if it upsets them, well they are not exactly a true friend afterall if all they want are the presents. You could make them a nice card with a nice verse inside which you can find what to say on the internet. I know i wouldnt mind if someone took the time to do that for me. Good Luck
