Money Saving Monday: Last Minute Gifts

December 21, 2009 at 12:08 pm Leave a Comment  

It’s the final week of our Countdown to Christmas—4 days until Christmas.

Today, we’re inviting you to share your holiday own tips as we combine our holiday series with this week’s Money Saving Monday.


I am so much further behind than usual! Typically, by now, I am simply wrapping gifts & putting the final touches on holiday baking. This year, I still have some last-minute shopping to do! Please, tell me I’m not the only one. This is where we all need a little help. We get stuck on the same few people year after year, but maybe someone else has the perfect gift for someone in your life.

I’ll be printing some family portraits to make a collage as a gift for my grandparents—being surrounded by family is something they cherish so I want to capture it in a frame. We have a few people who may end up with gift cards, just because I’m pressed for time. The restaurant holiday offers will be a great way for us to give an evening out to a few couples in our life, while collecting a few bonus coupons to use next month. Amazon is currently giving away trial offers to their Amazon Prime subscription—that entitles you to free 2-day shipping during your membership! I took advantage of the deal since there were a few final gifts I needed to purchase. I will cancel the service next month, but the free trial was a great help to me this week.

Now, it’s your turn—who is left on your list? What have you come up with? Do you have great suggestions for those of us with people still left on our list? The rules are simple: write about saving money on the given topic, mention MSM and link back to Inexpensively in your post, then come back here to add your permalink in the Mr. Linky. Be sure to grab the banner to let everyone know you’re participating! If you do not have a blog of your own, you are welcome to share your tips in the comments. Then, check out the great tips from Team Inexpensively and our readers.

Don’t forget tocome back for next week’s Money Saving Monday to share your New Year’s Resolutions—are you saving for something special next year? Determined to cut spending in a specific area? We want to hear about your money-related New Year’s Resolutions!
