I start my holiday shopping FAR in advance. With constant reminders about good deals, I find myself purchasing thoughtfully as far as 6 months out. Groupon, Living Social, Deal Chicken, Seize the Deal... they all have something of value to offer. You just have to do your research. I have purchased facials, dinner certificates, headphones, hot rollers, car detailing, earrings, photography packages and more! I willingly sign up for the alerts, and first thing in the morning I have a handful of deals to rifle through. ![]() For those who appreciate high fashion at discount prices, you are most likely already aware of the designer sale alerts you can register for. Ideeli, Gilt, HauteLook, and MyHabit, are just a few to name. Thanks to the daily alerts I receive from these sites, my mom and sister have received some fabulous designer clothing and jewelry. The stockings will be filled with more this year!
