Merry Christmas! Are you having a hard time with a few people on your list with Christmas fast approaching? Well, I was too last year so I put my creative thrifty mind to work and wrote a thought/poem to tie in my thoughtfulness and thrifty heart. I made up this poem/thought to use some my steals of deals (with coupons) and still give some nice gifts to the hard to get people on my list.
Here's what I am came up:
Christmastime is a season of love
most of all the gift from above.
Jesus is the reason for the season
Here's a small token of my love.
1- A gift of memory.
2- A gift to use.
3- A gift for fun.
Some ideas for 2009!
Examples for: Gift of Memory-
Free Shutterfly flip books paid only shipping of $3.XXish
Free Walgreens 8x10's prints using codes sent out in e-mails or found on other blogs
Free photo prints by signing up at Snapfish.com
Frames: I went to the dollar store to look for all black or silver metal frames for the 8x10's It's hit and miss though. Try 'em though.
Examples for: Gift of use-
Free NICE men and woman razors from Walgreens register rewards programs
Free first aid kits from Johnson and Johnson coupon in the summer purchased at Walmart
Free Glade air fresheners purchased at Walmart
Examples for: Gift of Fun
Free Glade candles with coupons from Walmart
Sometimes I put in a gift card for their favorite restaurant or movie theater
I often include some homemade items: A jar of our homemade jam, pickles, cookies, fudge, bread, or candies
After all, for the person who has everything time and the thought go a long way. I love you Grandma and Grandpa!
