Hi everyone! Last week I started my series of how to save pennies ( and dollars) this Christmas/Hanukkah season.
My tip this week is to shop at online auctions. There are a lot of them this time of year and many also help a good cause. For example, our friend, Andrea of Celestial Kitties there is one going right now to support Winnie’s Wish. Mom donated her two children’s books and there are lots of cat themed items like jewelry and home decor.To visit click here.
We are joining Comedy Plus’ Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
I have lots more tips- see you next week.
Thanks Penny! 😀
You’re welcome 🙂
Good tip, Penny!
Thank you 🙂
The Celestial Kitties’ human is such a devoted supporter of Winnie’s Wish! It’s awesome.
Yes, she sure is.
Already got bids on your books! Whoo hoo! Thanks for telling everyone about the auction!
YAY! You’re welcome 🙂
That is a good tip, Penny.
Thank you 🙂
Great tips! We visited Winnie’s Wish Auction and you’re right – lots of GREAT kitty-themed goodies there…….and some wonderful knit/crocheting too.
Hugs, Teddy
Thank you 🙂 Yes, Andrea made beautiful items. XO
Thanks, Penny! Winnie’s Wish Auction is a fabulous idea. I will be clicking over there with your link! Great tip!
Thank you 🙂 XO
My mom is one of those who shops for birthdays and Christmas all year long so she doesn’t have to panic at the last minute, and it spreads the cost our over the year too.
That is a good idea 🙂
We’ll go check it out!
Thank you 🙂
Thanks for the reminder sweet Penny!
You’re welcome.
Now that was a great tip Penny. All of you have a great day.
Thank you 🙂 We hope you had a great day too. XO
That’s an excellent tip, Penny…and a good reminder that we need to check out that auction.
Thank you 🙂
I just was over there at Winnie’s. I need some coffee though. Then I can go back.
Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday, Ellen. ♥
Good idea 🙂 XO
Great tip, Penny! Thank you.
You’re welcome. 🙂
You are very smart, Penny!
I’d never used Marketplace or Craigslist before, although they aren’t auction sites, but we found The ‘New’ Cat Car there. It’s good to think outside of one’s box.
Thank you 🙂 Mom uses those sites too.
Well done Penny!!
Hugs Cecilia

Hi Penny. UI LOVE when there is an auction. I have missed them. There is something I want, but I don’t want to bid again the highest bidder. They deserve to have what item and I can wait for another day.
That is sweet of you 🙂 XO
Penny, I love that your tip today inspires people to shop to benefit great causes. I just placed some bids for lovely items in the wonderful Winnie’s Wish auction. Purrs!
Thank you 🙂
That’s a great idea! Definitely a win-win. 🙂
Thank you 🙂
I’ve never looked at online auctions. Thank you for the excellent tip!
You’re welcome 🙂
A really great tip Penny. We have been going to the Winnies Wish Auction for years and always love the things we win. Purrs
Thank you 🙂
