Have you started your Christmas shopping yet?  I have gotten all of my nieces and nephews shopped for, which is a nice relief, but I do still need to shop for my kids and my hubby.  We all know that I am a bit of a cheapskate, and this doesn’t change during the holidays. That’s why I thought I would chat a little bit about some surprisingly awesome places to shop for stocking stuffers and Christmas gifts.  No one likes to be stuck in line at the mall, right?

Surprisingly Awesome Places to Shop for Stocking Stuffers & Christmas gifts

Rite Aid – Rite Aid is awesome for buying makeup, nail polish and other beauty and bath items. Those of this stuff is awesome for stockings. Plus, Rite Aid has some seriously awesome clearance deals so keep an eye out for those bright yellow tags that show 25%-75% off.  

Walgreens – Walgreens is just about my favorite place to coupon for makeup, razors, beauty products, etc.  Check this site often for sweet coupon deals and you can score them too. These are always good to put into stockings. 

Grocery stores – So many awesome candy bar deals can be found at the grocery store.  Also, be sure to check the clearance rack here too because there is often super cheap makeup, lotions, etc.  I often even find toys at my local Safeway clearance.

Goodwill – Crazy, right?  I know everyone doesn’t like to buy second hand gift for Christmas.  My family and I don’t mind at all, but that’s not why I mentioned it.  I mentioned it because at many Goodwill stores, they sell Target overstock items.  That means brand spanking stuff at a fraction of the price. I cannot tell you how many times I have scored rock bottom prices shopping this way. 

Amazon – Keep your eye on Amazon because they are always dropping prices crazy low and pretty much anything you might be shopping for.
