Between Black Friday and Cyber Monday, I was able to purchase every Christmas gift online and come under budget!!!!!!!!! On Sunday, I even ordered two dog Christmas sweaters for my brother's small dogs and he picked them up at the Target, yesterday evening! I had to change my city in the app and add my brother's name as a authorized person for pick up.
For the most part, it's just too expensive to use the post office to ship Christmas presents during the holidays.
I think it was like last year or the year before and you'd think I was shipping a car engine or something but I was just shipping like sweaters, socks, comforter set, and I swear, the post office charged me $75 to ship to Sacramento...and it was the first Wednesday in December.
If you ship any later than the second Wednesday in December, you'd better have a lot money or just send return the items back to the stores and give each relative the money you would have spent on gifts and shipping.
This is why I buy all family gifts online is for the FREE shipping because I can no longer afford to pick something up at a store and go to the post office and ship it to my family...unless, it's something kind of small.
Now, I've got to start working on my nephew's picture book so I can get that out. I think I may be able to arrange for pick up at the Walgreens in Sacramento! I'll have to talk to Walgreens Photo folks here because if I can save those coins, I would love to do so!
At Walgreens buy 4 Ferro Rocher Bars for $3.99 each online. Use code TAKE25 which will take $4 off. Submit to Swagbucks or My Points which will make them free when you get a printed receipt to submit.
