It’s CHRISTMAS in July!

Ok, well, it’s not exactly Christmas in July. But it IS time to start thinking about Christmas! (In fact, I’m thinking about snow and 29 degrees right now! I’m hoping it will cool me off!) But back to the point…

Have you thought about starting your Christmas Shopping right now? Shopping for Christmas 6 months to a year ahead of time is a great way to save $$$! Last Christmas, Bug’s two big Christmas presents from “Santa” (a Sit ‘n Spin and a toy drum set) were bought the day after the previous Christmas for 60%+ off! For less than $20 I had almost half his Christmas bought! I picked up some little things throughout the year and waited to see what he was most interested in closer to Christmas (which turned out to be trains) and used Amazon.com giftcards that I earned from Swagbucks to purchase him some trains!

Which leads me to my next question. Do you use Swagbucks? (Read more about Swagbucks)

Using your Swagbucks to get Amazon.com giftcards is a great way to save on Christmas shopping! Not to mention that Amazon has great specials and deeply discounted items. The deals happen all year long so you can start shopping now! Just look at these items that would make great Christmas gifts this year:

Amazon pricing can change in a flash and hot deals get snapped up quickly so when you see something good, grab it! I like to keep a notepad with everyone listed that I buy Christmas for. That way I can keep up with who I’ve already bought for and what I’ve bought.

My goal is to buy as much Christmas with Amazon giftcards as possible! Right now I have $35.00 in giftcards waiting to be used!

Won’t you join Swagbucks and start earning with me? If you join now you should be able to earn enough to save a little on your Christmas shopping also!

Watch out for hot deals in the Christmas Shopping category!
