Spring is full of celebrations, from Mother’s Day to dads and grads. Of course, entertainment and travel too. All that fun can get expensive, but it doesn't mean you'll have to miss out this season. You can make the most out of the moments that matter and still celebrate those you love without stressing about your budget.

If you want to be financially savvy and maximize every dollar you spend, consider a heartfelt DIY gift like making a card or baking their favorite treat. For those hosting, reimagine your space instead of paying for a party venue, create a backyard picnic, or entertain at a local park.

Another great tip is to see if your credit card has special offers or benefits that earn you cash back. For example, Chase Freedom Unlimited recently launched their May Month of More, where cardmembers can save up to 15% on gift cards and earn up to 10% cash back from favorite brands like Nike, Sephora, or Neiman Marcus. You can get Apple products for less when you redeem your points for 10% more at the Apple Ultimate Rewards Store too.

You can also treat that recent grad in your life to a Home Chef or Wayfair gift card as they prepare to live on their own. Or consider ordering a fresh bouquet from ProFlowers or a nice perfume from Sephora for that special lady in your life this Mother’s Day. In addition to the card's regular benefits, you'll earn a boost in cash back when you use your Chase Freedom Unlimited credit card regardless of the gift. Both your loved ones and your wallet will have a reason to celebrate. If you’re not a Chase Freedom cardmember, you may want to apply for it. Cardmembers always earn unlimited 1.5% cash back on all purchases, plus your rewards never expire as long as your account is open.

As if it couldn’t get any better, Freedom Unlimited cardmembers can also earn 5% cash back on travel purchased through Chase Ultimate Rewards, 3% cash back on dining and drugstores, and 1.5% cash back on all other purchases – so you’re always earning when celebrating this spring, and beyond.
