I'm so excited about doing some Christmas shopping. Jo and I will be going to Gander one day early in the week to start on it. I have a few ideas in mind for my in-laws and my own family back home but I need to get some hints from a few of them.
My sister in law is probably going to be the hardest to pick for though. She likes short, tight fitting clothing (pffth at 17). I don't like looking at anyone dressed like that, much less my 17 year old sister in law. I refuse to buy her anything like that, EVER. I think to be on the safe side though, I'll stick with buying her some pajamas and a coat, then fill her stocking up with a few stocking stuffer things.
Jo's already given me ideas about what he wants. The biggest thing is Call of Duty4, blank DVDs and a digital camera (point and shoot). The first 2 I can manage.. the last, I'll have to see which one he's talking about! HAHA.
My mother in law made it easy. She's been dropping hints for months. We're going to get her a new electric can opener, some boots and possibly a coat.
For everyone else... I am stumped!
My cousin Angie has been doing missionary work for her church in Augusta, Georgia for the last 10 or so years. She's traveled to Venezuela, Thailand and even Africa with their missionary group. Well, I wanted to do something extra special for her this year, for Christmas and since she's a fairly trendy young lady, I figured I would check into some of the new stylish Christian T-shirts over at C28.com. I have to tell you, their selection of apparel is fabulous. Angie would love the "Truth" t-shirt but honestly, this might prove to be a tougher decision than I imagined because there are so many awesome t-shirts to choose from.
If you are looking for Christian T-shirts, may I suggest you start with them, C28.com? They're a Christian t-shirt lifestyle retail who offers an alternative to those typical clothing stores you'll find at your local mall. In fact, they have announced the opening of their new location in Northridge, California which occurred on November 3rd. Go have a look see for yourself. They have a large selection of t-shirts and other apparel to choose from, including jewelry, shoes and stickers.
My oldest sister Connie loves surfing. Of course, living on the Georgia coastline the only time she really gets a chance to is when tropical systems stir up the ocean. The last time she and I spent some time together, she mentioned that she and her boyfriend both needed Surfboard Fins. TheSurfboardWarehouse.com has a fairly large selection of fins to choose from and for those watching their wallets, no worries, the prices are definitely affordable as are the shipping rates. I believe one has a shortboard and one has a longboard, TheSurfboardWarehouse.com has both and then some.
If you are looking for fins, surfboard bags, leashes and more, TheSurfboardWarehouse.com is the place to start your search. You may also be interested in knowing that they have a list of the best shapers in the industry for those of you wanting custom boards.
I have always loved playing board games. It is great entertainment for the whole family or when you have friends over. In fact, Jo and I still enjoy a good board game and I have a feeling come winter, we will be doing a lot of board game playing since the snow will keep us off the roads and indoors. And since winter is practically here in Newfoundland (it has been near freezing the last 2 nights), we should probably start looking into buying a couple of new ones for those chilly winter days.
I was previously stumped about where to start my search. Of course, that was before I knew about Starlitcitadel.com. There are over 315 board games to choose from and they offer free shipping for orders over $150. My husband will love that they offer role playing games too. He has always been into those things and hey, something like that would make for a nice Christmas gift too (psst, they will be providing free gift wrapping services). Oh, they have the World of Warcraft board game and holy smokes, for a great price. My husband will definitely be getting this one.
If you are looking for great Canadian board games for excellent prices, you must check out Starlit Citadel - your online board game store based in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
Can you believe, Christmas is right around the corner? It seems like the second school gets underway, all of the holidays just sneak right up on us, doesn't it? I don't know about you but I personally love the giving part of the holidays. But you know, even so, I still try to keep a check on my wallet and stick to a budget as best as possible. How do I do this? Well, normally I would use regular coupons but since I plan to take my holiday shopping to the internet this year, I will be looking for online deals and coupon codes, which I (and you) can find over at Couponchief.com!
Other than the spending aspect, I often struggle with ideas on what to get my loved ones. Luckily, many of my loved ones decided to give me a list - early. My husband is itching for a new pair of Nike sneakers and I managed to find Nike Coupons which will help me buy them within my budget - I can save up to 30% on the Air Equalon for men! My sister in law loves clothes, handbags and generally, anything in pink. She should be fairly easy to shop for them with Delias Coupons. She has already put in a request for a pink sweater, hoodie and of course the handbag, so I am happy to see a coupon for free shipping on anything $75 and more. Either way, I am going to spend that $75 so to get the shipping for free is awesome.
If you are looking for great deals and online coupons, Couponchief.com is the place you need to be. This is a time for giving, not worrying about the money being spent!
