Hi everyone! Christmas and Hanukkah will be here before you know it so for the next few weeks I am going to be giving you penny saving tips to help stretch your dollars(and pennies).
You’ll need to make a list of who you need to get gifts for -don’t forget your kitties. Then you can start brainstorming ideas of what to get everyone. I highly recommend ( and no one is paying me to suggest this) BlackFriday.com. You can sign up right now and every day they will send you an email with the latest adds for Black Friday. That way you will already know what will be on sale and you can make a plan for shopping. Or you can just go to their website and see the ads they already have listed.
There is a is a website called Organized Christmas that has a free printable budget list and all kinds of other ways to keep you organized .To visit, click here.
We are joining Comedy Plus’ Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Hey, that is a good bunch of suggestions, Penny! You got the smarts:)
Thank you 🙂
My human doesn’t have a lot of shopping to do for the holidays, fortunately! But she is a little stumped over what to give one or two people.
There is always at least one tough one to buy for. 🙂
We like your tips Penny.
Mum at least has a list 😉
Purrs,Georgia and Julie
Thank you 🙂 XO
Penny you have the BEST ideas EVER! It is time to start thinking about Christmas because it will be here before we know it. That means (I hope my Mom is listening!) it’s time to start thinking about DECORATING too……and baking…..and of course making sure THE CAT (me) has plenty of presents under the tree – it’s NEVER too early to start shopping!
Hugs, Teddy
Thank you. I hope you get lots of gifts Teddy. XO
We just did some graphics for a Winnie’s Wish Auction and Fundraiser … there will be lots of “kitty gifts” … if Penny wants to help promote that for holiday shopping tips, let me know, we’ll send her the pictures and the links! Thanks!
I will definitely write about it- great idea. XO
Penny! Thank you, you gorgeous Tortie you! I haven’t heard of that site! XX
Thank you 🙂 XO
We love free stuff! I used to go crazy and request free products whether I was interested or not. Then I ended up with a room of junk. I don’t know what I was thinking.
The list will only be one sheet of paper so no worry of clutter 🙂
Great tip Penny. It would be great to get ready for Christmas early and then enjoy it. Have a great day.
Thank you 🙂 Yes, it would. I hope you had a great day too. XO
The best tips come from Penny! Planning in advance saves time and money 🙂
Thank you 🙂 XO
I will have to check out those websites. I did an advent calendar for my wife last year and bought her a present for each day (I think it is 24). Now she expects that every year.
Thank you 🙂 That was a great idea, I can see why she would want you to do it again 🙂
Excellent tips, Penny. I would have never known. I don’t buy much at Christmas anymore but it is always fun to look, especially comfortably curled up on the couch with my laptop!
Thank you 🙂 XO
We will look into these ideas, Penny. We recently learned that our mom will no longer get a Christmas bonus anymore and has to stretch her dollars further this year.
That stinks!
Excellent tips!!!!

We like to finish our shopping in November so we can just enjoy the holidays. Thanks for the tips.
That is a great idea.
Great tip, Penny. I’ve been doing this for years. Now to just learn how to stick to my budget. LOL
Thank you 🙂
Your wise tips are going to be so helpful during this holiday season, Penny! I really should print out and use that budget sheet, because I’m terrible at keeping tally of all that in my head. Purrs!
Thank you 🙂
Thanks for those tips, Penny.
You’re welcome 🙂
Great tip, pretty girl! We need to save wherever we can.
Thank you 🙂
Good info, Penny. Great job as usual!
Thank you 🙂
Another great tip, Penny. TW knows one thing Pop always wants. He’s the only one besides me that she really has to buy for. She always has a gift for Aunt Pauline.
Thank you 🙂 As long as she gets you something 🙂 XO

You be so purretty Penny. Mommy just finda an old toy we haven’t played with in a while and wraps it up. Unfurtunately, money’s always tight, but ‘specially this year what with all the purroblems we’ve had and rent increases. Fankfully, we’re blest to have a roof over our heads, and Raena and me have the bestest food a kitty could ask fur. Big hugs
Luv ya’
Dezi and Raena
All you need is love. XO
My kitties do have a spot on the Christmas list every year. I try to pick up a new cat tree for them every Black Friday so they have new things to explore.
That is sweet 🙂
