Christmas shopping in January??

January 24th, 2010

Most of us are still recovering from the Holiday hustle and bustle of December 2009.  However, it is the perfect time to start your holiday shopping for Christmas 2010!!!

Take advantage of the clearance sales that the stores are offering on their winter merchandise.  I got some great deals on children’s clothing for my daughter’s Winter wardrobe next year at our local outlet center.  You can’t beat new, cute clothes for less than $2.  If you typically give a sweater to your Aunt Joan, you can buy it now for less than half of what you will pay shopping last minute.  Let’s face reality, Aunt Joan doesn’t care about the trendy sweaters, she loves the ones with Santa and a penguin on it and the styles on those types of items don’t change from year to year.

I also stopped into Bath and Body Works today.  Their big lotion bottles are on sale for less than the holiday specials.  Lotion is one of my favorite holiday gifts.  It’s something that I don’t spurge on for myself, but I enjoy it each time I use it.  I think I’m like a lot of frugal moms out there.  We enjoy fancy things, but unfortunately, our extra money goes towards things for our children, not ourselves.  Lotion is easy to store, doesn’t spoil and is the perfect gift for women of all ages and preferences.

I could go on and on, but I know most of us realize that we “could” do our Christmas shopping now, but we just don’t for some reason.  Here’s your reminder!  If you buy just a few gifts this month, you can save yourself money, stress and time when it matters most!

Great Holiday Season

January 6th, 2010

We want to take the time to thank all of our customers for a great holiday season! By far, our best sellers were purse hangers. Why not? They make great gift items. Most customers bought more than one, in fact, the average was five. We also sold some jewelry, pill boxes and Zoobies.

Please add some comments about your shopping experience for the 2009 holiday season!
