I have discovered the glorious world of online shopping with coupon codes.
Not only do I do it from the comfort of the office, but therefore avoid the insanity that Christmas shopping has become. Seriously the day that some poor man is trampled to death because 2000+ people forget the real meaning of Christmas in pursuit of a flat screen television for 60% off is the day I say forget it!
So with a slow office, I online shopped. First I went to elf.com and loved the deals I got there. Now before you think I was off buying makeup for my son, stop! I thought since I doubt I’ll be receiving anything from Santa (not that I have been bad, I just think that eventually the Big Man does eventually have a cut off age for bringing presents, even if you do still believe in him!
Now while the makeup is dirt cheap, it apparently is great stuff. Kelsie ordered some over the summer and both she and Tracie swear by it. So Tracie and I went in together to rack up $30.00 worth of products to get the free shipping. But after doing about 5 minutes of coupon code hunting I found 2 codes I could use together and wound up with a better deal. So got $30 worth for $26.64 (that is including the tax and shipping) SCORE!!!
Next I heaed over to nfl.com to get Nathan his birthday gifts. Again using coupon codes found online I bought for him all New Orleans Saints gear. I got him A hat, a new backpack for school, and a new blanket for his bed.
All together it would have come to nearly $100.00 for all of it, but thanks to sales, I spent only $50.00, including the tax and shipping.
I so rock.
