If you’re like me, you wait until the end of the year to make the bulk of your charitable contributions.

This week on Dollar Duo, John and I highlighted a smartgivers.org, a web site that you can use to help compare charities at this hectic time of the year.

John also has a lovely entry on his Dealspotter blog about how to find tax-decuctible homes for your unwanted, but in good condition items.

I’ve decided to skip a charitable doanation this year since our government has decided it would be me paying for defaultwed mortgages.

Next year, I will defer some tax dollars for poorly run private business’s that our government will bail out.

Merry Christmas!
