As part of my Holiday Gifting Tips, I’ll be scoping out deals and DYIs to help keep your wallet as full as your belly this holiday season. The holidays are the time to keep your eye on the deal. I believe that you don’t have to pay full price for anything (ever.), but this tip is especially essential around the holidays when you’re having to budget for gifts for friends, family, co-workers, and kids. In lieu of my typical Deal of the Day, for the next two months I’ll be sharing deals that are perfect to gift for all those special someones in your life. Today I’ve got deals for girlfriends and your man!
