## Holiday Gifts

The holidays can be expensive, especially when you want to give some of those gifts they’ll love that come with a higher price tag. A Festive Funds loan can lend Santa a helping hand in the gifts department without squeezing your budget. And whether you put an iPad under the Christmas tree or treat your favorite folks to front-row concert tickets, you know you’ll be making holiday memories to hold onto for years to come. 

 

## Travel Expenses

Travel during the holidays can come at a high cost, between oversold flights and the high cost of gas and plane tickets. But having a Festive Funds loan to bridge the gaps can mean seeing your family for Christmas or ringing in the new year with your favorite people instead of being stuck at home because of the expense. 

 

## Filling the Holiday Table

A hearty feast for the whole family can add up. A Festive Funds loan at a small dollar amount can let you head into the supermarket and fill that cart with all the ingredients you need to make those family-favorite holiday recipes for a crowd.

## New Winter Gear

It’s the time of year to shred on the slopes, and whether you ski or snowboard, an upgrade to your gear can help you hit it harder and make the most of the season. Use your Festive Funds loan to get new winter gear and get more out of every second on the ski hill. 

 

## Decking the Halls

Holiday decorations set the atmosphere for the festivities. But ornaments and twinkle lights come with a price tag, even if you incorporate some DIY projects. Go all out with a Festive Funds loan, and be the Griswolds of your neighborhood. 

 

## Making Your Home Winter Cozy

Cozy can come from candles and throw blankets, but it might also mean better insulating a room or buying a gas fireplace to warm up your space. And the impacts will last for the whole season ahead.

## A Warm-Weather Getaway

By the time the holidays are winding down, winter has really taken hold. Maybe you just need to get away and soak in some sun. Or maybe you’re ready to skip the holidays and spend a week or two on the beach. A Festive Funds loan can help get you there.  

 

Some restrictions do apply, and Festive Funds loans are available on approved credit. 

But RMCU is here to help make the season snug and warm. Apply for your Festive Funds loan, and dream up how a little extra cash can make your holidays even brighter.
