Happy-Thanksgiving2

Here is the definitive list of how to get your holiday shopping done without pulling out all of your hair or 'losing your shirt' at that sale....

Let's be clear: according to the National Retailers Federation, Americans spend an average of $404 each Thanksgiving weekend. Where do you fall- a little below or way above?!

  1. checklistAnswer this question: how much do you want/have to spend? This is the BIG question!
  2. Make a list of what you want
  3. Revisit your Lust List. You do have one, don't you? Check out 24 lists everyone should make!
  4. Create a list of what you want to get [for others]
  5. At the top of each list, write the dollar amount you want/have to spend (clue: it should add up to the number noted in #1)
  6. Prioritize your list...(because not everyone deserves a gift)
  7. Hit the internet FIRST: let your fingers do the walking and online usually offers discounts and promos
  8. Consider the percentage discount rather than the final price (50% off a $20,000 watch is stellar; 50% off a $20 t-shirt is a dime-a-dozen)!
  9. Plan to scoop items where the return policy is liberal - a gift no one wants and isn't returnable = wasted money!
  10. When you head out take cash! Studies show that using plastic leads to greater sending...

Thank me later!!
