STOP AND THINK DO WE REALLY NEED THIS
I look for in -store discounts and sales for the week by checking out online ads.
I look for items on sale. I have also used their own coupons.
black Friday baby!! but not in the stores oh no!! online! it's awesome! Plus i don't have to deal w/any stupid ppl fighting over 1 thing lol
I like to search on line, e-bay or amazon are my favorites. Last Christmas I got my grandson $150.00 worth of toys for $25.00 and free shipping and new childrens books for less than $1.00 each. I have found a few deals this year.
Shop at the store with consistently lower prices.
I wait for my last few big items until black friday...usually those "popular" items will go on sale, especially this year with $$ being so tight for so many. Stores will also send out $$ off coupons to encourage more shopping before the holidays.
We find that local stores are more than willing to give a good price. Or if we go to the big named stores, we always try and find the person that helped us last. They are willing to let you know of sales and such coming up. Then you can save big.
I take my sales papers into walmart for them to match the price
online research to find the best deals!
