Merrier Shopping!

I've been shopping... in my pj's! I think I like this even better than shopping the sales and going from one store to the next to find the best buy. Yesterday I just filled my cup of coffee, went down to the study and there in my pink robe and my fluffy slippers I wiped out a big part of Christmas shopping!

Cyber Monday has been around for awhile, but I really haven't participated until this year. Lots of sites had free shipping, Best Buy had 50% off some of their video games and of course Walmart and Target had some great specials. Amazon was really the one I ordered the most from though. When you have family that lives a distance, it simplifies shopping. They have a Wish List that the Grandkids can use to help you out, it has Bill To-Ship To feature and the best part....they find the sales for you. I shop until the stores close on Christmas Eve, but I am feeling great about crossing through a big part of my list!


Jana at Merrier Shopping has some great free printables to help with the big job of planning.
This list will help me to stay on track, it's hard to get it all done without a list.

I have a budget I strictly loosely follow each year...


Planning a Christmas party? Here's your list!

...and for all those goodies you plan on giving to friends and neighbors, recipe cards to tie on the presents!
Hop on over to Merrier Shopping and tell Jana I said HELLO!

  5. Oh goodness...I'm the biggest "list" person ever! I even listed all the cookies I'm bringing home, crossing them off as I go! Did I ever tell you that I excelled in organization skills when I worked?????...:)JP

  8. I do the majority of my shopping from home. Way less impulse buying and when I do get out to the stores... well i don't have much to get and can actually enjoy myself! No crazed person on the look out for something I can't find!

    Enjoy your holiday shopping,
    Chris
