There was a time in my younger years when I loved the mall, the crowds, the sales (which weren't actually sales, just too-expensive prices marked down to normal price with the illusion of a sale). But my old age and often-advertised free shipping online has gotten the best of me. I used to be against internet shopping; after-all, it does seem a bit lonely to sit and shop by yourself, but when most online stores began offering free shipping on top of a percent off your total purchase during the holidays, I caved.
I'm a sucker for a good deal, saving gas and avoiding the cold.
I have fully-embraced online shopping and there's no going back. Aside from the grocery store and target (because let's face it, who doesn't love mindlessly walking around target), you won't be seeing this girl in the stores this holiday season. My Christmas shopping is not only done, but thrifty, stress-free and on time! That's a success if you ask me.
Some of my favorite money-saving sites?
Amazon.com (free super-saver shipping is the bomb.)
Mama Cheaps (recently introduced to by my sister-in-law and love her daily deal-mails.)
Groupon (I just like saying, "I got my Groupon!")
Any more suggestions? I know there's more out there!
