Christmas Gift Ideas

The Shopping Season Has Officially Started

2009-11-01T08:24:00.000-08:00

Halloween is behind us and November is here. Time to shop. This weeks Sunday paper had the big fat Toys R Us catalog that the kids have already dug in to. I also noticed that the Best Buy ad flyer was about twice the normal size. It's hear, starting watching for deals.

Also a word to the wise. I just ordered a few books off of Amazon.com. Looking to save a few bucks I choose the Free Shipping option. Typically Amazon's free shipping runs about 7-10 days. This time - 3 1/2 weeks! And didn't seem the items were back ordered. So if you want to save on online shipping start getting those orders sooner than later.
