The 12 Dates of Christmas -- Twenty good things

Date 6: Withdraw $20 in $1 bills from your checking account and spread some Christmas cheer to strangers. Whether it's the homeless man near the Metro, an unsuspecting customer at the gas station, the car behind you at a drive-through or the bell ringer by the Salvation Army bucket, this surprise gift will make someone's day. Just present the money, and offer a genuine smile and a "Merry Christmas!"

What you'll love: Christmas should be a time of reflection, gratitude and generosity. What better way to celebrate your love together than by doing something selfless and kind?

Cost: $20
(Or more, if you're feeling generous).
