The holidays can be one of the most eventful times of the year, and one of the most stressful times for families on a budget. When you begin your holiday shopping for your loved ones and friends, shopping for yourself doesn’t seem so bad either! It’s important to have a list of items you want and the stores that are going to offer them for the best deals. Uniqlo and Kohl’s have fabulous discounts right now in store and online, that would work as perfect items for the women (and men) in your life.
Holiday Shopping Doesn’t Have to Hurt Your Wallet
- The Uniqlo sleeveless corduroy dress pictured above was recently featured on Who What Wear, and is a great example of an item you could buy for your daughter or a girl friend in your life. It’s young but professional, and the cord pattern will keep anyone warm and chic during snow storms. Not to mention it’s a much more personal pick versus a gift card to the store or a boring scarf.
- Kohl’s has insane deals going on, including free shipping on orders of $50 or more, an extra 15% off everything and 25% off when you spend $100 or more. This is a deal no one should miss. For the high tech gal or guy in your life, this polaroid tablet is bound to keep them thinking about you all day long.
- Urban Outfitters seems to be one of the best places for getting quirky items that your friends and family are not going to forget about. This mix and match cutlery set is ideal for the mom who is always willing to have a good time and her kids don’t stop her from being the fun loving energetic girl she is at heart. For $29 from $39, keep this in mind if you can’t find anything else that suits the person you are shopping for.
Remember not to let holiday shopping stress you out- it is supposed to be one of the best time of the year! As long as you focus on purchasing the important items you want to gift your loved ones, keep the extra money you save to treat yourself to something extra special.
