Christmas Gift Tracker & Holiday Budget Spreadsheet – Per-Person Gift List, Budget vs Actual, Stocking Tracker & Status (Excel + Google Sheets)
Keep every Christmas gift, budget and to-do in one calm spreadsheet that does the math for you.
The Christmas Gift Tracker & Holiday Budget Spreadsheet tracks gifts per person (idea → ordered → purchased → wrapped → shipped → given), rolls spent amounts into each recipient's budget, and shows your whole holiday budget vs actual across gifts, wrapping, shipping, travel, food, decorations, charity and misc. The Dashboard pulls it together: holiday budget, spent, remaining, days until Christmas (Dec 25, 2026), gift status counts, people at $0 remaining, and charts for spend by person and status breakdown.
It works in Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets (free). Share it with your partner or family. No macros, add-ins or subscriptions. Type in the cream cells and the grey cells calculate automatically (they're protected so nothing breaks).
