Christmas shopping!

Thanksgiving is over and I'll bet some of you have already started decorating for Christmas. Have you started your shopping? Remember to make that list, it saves you money on last minute decisions and you can compare prices! And that is my first holiday shopping tip: Compare prices. Already I almost paid more than I needed to on a cookbook from Williams Sonoma that I'm pretty sure one of my friends will love. I had clicked it into my shopping cart and had my credit card at the ready when a voice in my ear reminded me to check Amazon first. Thank you voice, I saved $5 on this gift and I get free shipping! Together that's a savings of over $10. If I can save like that on all of my purchases, maybe I'll be able to save enough money for a little ski weekend...
