Tina M. Dukas

Tina Dukas, retail banking officer at Community Bank of Parkersburg, said the Christmas account is a wonderful budgeting tool that can save people the headache of finding extra cash for gifts.

"You don't have to rob your regular savings account or your checking account at Christmas time because you already saved the money," said Dukas. "The money is already saved up and you get the big check in October. There's no scrambling to find the cash."

This year, Community Bank of Parkersburg had 450 Christmas Club accounts.

"They seem to be very popular," said Dukas.
