If you are like me, you’ve got a lot on your plate this holiday season. With everything I need to accomplish during a normal week I barely have time to think. Add all the demands of holiday shopping and prep… it’s a recipe for holiday stress. I’ve found that I need to shop smarter this year so I can enjoy the holiday season.

Finding great deals at places I’m already shopping is one great way to save time. There will always be those hard to shop for people in your life and getting them gift cards takes the pressure of you to find that perfect gift. I’m already at the grocery store so when I find a deal there on gift cards I snatch them up quick! Right now purchase $100 or more in select gift cards from Shaws (like Amazon, JCP, Bass Pro, Starbuck’s, Buffalo Wild Wings, Toys R Us and Kohl’s) and you will get $10 toward next shopping order at Shaws.

I love stocking up on gift cards during these great sales. They are perfect for all gifting occasions and they don’t go bad (check dates on individual retailers)! It’s always a good idea to have gift cards on hand for that surprise event. We have all been invited to that last minute party and had to scramble for a gift. Stocking up now will save you time and aggravation if and when that party pops on to your calendar. The deal Shaws is running is perfect for stocking up on gift cards. I have to get groceries and I’m going to be buying gift cards anyway. Now I can get an extra 10$ towards my next order! That will get me some great holiday treats and help me stick to my grocery budget for the month.

If you use your favorite rewards credit cards, you can earn points and that equals even more saving for you! You can’t go wrong!!I use my points to grab everything from cash back to more gift cards! It’s the perfect way to keep the holiday costs down. Check your local store for details! Promotion runs 12/2-12/15 so hurry in today.
