There’s only 10 shopping days left until Christmas day!! Are you ready? I know I’m not! I started out this holiday season full steam ahead and was crossing off gifts from my list surprisingly fast. But I’m now 22 weeks along and with every week that goes by, I get bigger lol AND slower. I’ve managed to buy the majority of gifts/toys for the little ones, now I’m left with gifts for my older boys and the adults that require me to really put in some thought.

Now that we quickly approach the big day, I’ve decided to really narrow it down and map out a shopping strategy in effort to not only save money but to also preserve what little energy I have left for some real holiday fun with the family. Below are the two BIG ways I plan on wrapping up some last minute gifts and how I’ll be scoring some deals.
If you know me, you know I love a good DIY! There’s nothing more sweet and personal (in my opinion) to unwrap a gift that someone made just for me. Right now I’m enjoying the designing process. I plan on giving some frames a makeover and framing some printable wall art. Scroll down to see some fun examples of frames and click here to see a fun printable that’s free and stay tuned we’ll have a new one in a few days! Another thoughtful gift? Sweets! These gingerbread cookies are perfect to make and wrap in pretty containers as a gift!
Every little bit counts, and I turn to Groupon Coupons to help me score some major deals. This is perfect for someone like me who always forgets to check store coupons and deals. Groupon Coupons always has coupons for just about every store you can think of, and you even have the option of searching locally! For example, I’m a big Nordy (Nordstrom) fan but they only have sales a couple of times a year. With Groupon Coupons I scored 40% off a pair of Uggs with a Nordstrom coupon on my Christmas list and since we live in Florida, where it’s still in the 80’s, I scored an extra 60% off of clearance at Rue21 with a Groupon coupon. It’s become a new way for me to shop and since it’s always available on my phone, I rarely ever forget to check out my options before I shop.

Thank you for sharing these ideas. Believe it or not, I just started shopping on Monday. I love some of the red ribbon with the sparkle.
