    Default My Christmas Shopping has begun.

    Today I officially started my Christmas Shopping. I was able to pick up 2 long sleeve Penn Start t-shirts for $6.99 each, regular $24.99, 1men's leather tri-fold wallet $7.99, suggested retail $40.00, 2 2pks. low-rise mens athletic socks, $1.99 each, regular $6.99 each, 4 beaded bracelets $2.50 each, regular $10.00 and 1 pr beaded earrings $2.50, regular $10.00. I had all but the socks gift wrapped for free at the department store.

    I think that I'm off to a good start. I hope I can continue to get such good deals.

    You do have a wonderful start to your Christmas shopping - plus everything is wrapped to go too!! Looking forward to seeing what other goodies you find!!

    So this weekend I made some more progress on my Christmas shopping. I also have 2 birthdays that I need to buy for and got them started as well. I found some great deals again.

    2 long sleeve henley shirts $4.99 each (reg. $20 each)
    2 6pk crew socks $2.99 each (reg. $11.99 each)
    1 long sleeve ladies t-shirt $7.99 (reg. $26.00)
    1 pr sterling silver earrings $14.99 (reg. $40.00)

    I was able to have all items wrapped at the store. That sure will save me time as the season goes.
