Hi guys! It's starting to really feel like Christmas around our home. The tree is up and decked out. The portrait of Santa Claus has taken it's usual place on the living room wall. Our Christmas cards arrived from the printer yesterday and the "Sparking Berry Garland" wax is amelt in the warmer. {We simply overlook the fact that temps are still in the mid-80's every day.} As much as I love the decorations, another tell-tale sign that the holidays are here is my return to ONLINE SHOPPING!!! It is a pretty well established fact that my "love language" is gifts. It brings me unparallelled joy to really think about the people that I love so much and find just the right things for each of them. If I can do all that in the glow of my pretty Christmas tree while wearing my jammies, so much the better!
This year completely takes the cake because, not only am I home in my cozy house in my jammies, I am also saving mega-money with FreeShipping.com. FreeShipping.com is like the awesome pearly gateway to heavenly holiday savings. How does it work, you ask? Allow me to explain:
FreeShipping.com members earn 10% cash back on purchases they make at over 1,000 top retailers -- places you probably already shop like Walmart, Kohl’s, Nordstrom, Best Buy, ProFlowers, and more — in addition to free shipping, free returns, and price protection! Members can save 10% cash back on each purchase automatically! From now through Cyber Monday you will save 20% at 5 select retailers per day.
Once you become a member, simply log in, click on any participating retailer’s offer, and make your purchases as you normally would. As soon as the retailer notifies FreeShipping.com that your item has shipped, they apply 10% of the total purchase (minus taxes and other fees) to your Savings Center account, where you can track your cash-back and rebate earnings over time. At the end of every calendar quarter, they’ll tally up your 10% cash-back earning over the previous three months and send you a check!
As a gifter on a budget, I especially love the price comparison feature. Just search for the item you are looking for -- be as general or specific as you want. For example, I am looking for headphones for my son. He got a pair of iHome headpones last year that he loved, but they got stepped on recently and broke. I searched "iHome headphones" and got this:
If you happen to have the specific name of the headphones you want, or even the SKU number, you can enter that info to narrow the search results even more. If you have several things you want to order from one retailer, like Target for example, search "Target" to find coupon codes you can use ON TOP of the 10% cash back to save even more. I'm perfectly giddy at the potential savings!!
Use the Clever Girls coupon code HOLIDAY2014 on the FreeShipping.com website to begin your free 30-day trial and to receive a discounted monthly membership rate of $9.95/month (after the 30-day free trial).
Because all this bargain shopping has me in a gifty mood, I designed some free printable Christmas tags y'all can use, if you are so inclined, when you wrap your holiday savings haul. Just click on the image above and save it to your computer. Print onto cardstock and cut out with a 2.5" circle punch or good ol' scissors. {Come back in a few days to see how these coordinate with my gift wrapping idea this year!}
Happy Holiday Shopping, friends!
