Online Shoppers...A Must Read

In all honesty, I haven't done much online shopping. I am usually oblivious to what I want to even buy every year until I actually get out of the house and "look" at what fits each one's personality...unless the kids have something specific on their list.

This year, Little Ann's list is a mile long, but Big Dan hasn't said much. I had things in mind I wanted to get for them both...things not sold in stores. So...I had to go ONLINE.

Today, this is what I found out. Just after I placed a mega order with baseball express.com, did Pete read our email. In it, we had all kinds of mail from retailers offering great discounts on this what they call "Cyber Monday". I had free shipping offers, 25% off discounts, and even up to 60% online offers from places such as American Girl, Bath and Body Works, American Eagle, Cymax, etc. Baseball express was offering free shipping and 10% off the order.

Needless to say, I called them and they recalculated my order saving me quite a bit. YEA!!! So, here's my little tidbit. Don't let this day pass without checking into it. Every little bit helps especially this time of year!

Yeah, girl! They have Black Friday deals online too! I do SOOO much online shopping. Check out Bargainist.com. I have them added to my Google reader. I find out about alot of good deals this way--like when Aeropostale has an extra 30-40% off clearance. Ooohh, this topic excites me. Must shut up--now!!!
