400 Dollar Christmas Gift Card Giveaway

Save, Share, Spend – 5 Chances to Win Christmas #Giveaway

We are proud to announce our most recent giveaway: We are giving away $400 worth of gift cards!

A few of us personal finance and lifestyle bloggers banded together to give you an awesome gift card giveaway right in time for Christmas. There will be five winners drawn and the gift cards are to a variety of stores. It’s up to you whether this will be a gift for you or a gift for someone you know.

Since the theme is Christmas and I’m sure some of you are Christmas shopping I wanted to point out a few tips I had this year for shopping for Christmas presents:

  • Free Shipping – As some of you may know, Amazon just raised their minimum purchase order to $35 if you want free shipping. While Amazon may be your go-to online retailer, there are other major retailers who Amazon isn’t the only website that offers free shipping – Walmart is also offering free shipping on orders over $35, which is the same deal that Amazon offers.

    Additionally, Target has a similar deal on some orders over $50. While this is a good deal, an even better deal is the free shipping with the Target REDcard debit card. Not only that, you save 5% on every single purchase when you use your REDcard. I’ve had a REDcard for a few years now and I’m still kicking myself for not getting it earlier.

  • Set a Budget – Setting a budget is essential for Christmas shopping. Sit down and make a list of everyone you plan on exchanging gifts with and put a budget for how much you are willing to spend on them, and then commit to not going over budget. This total can easily get well into the hundreds of dollars, so make sure you don’t spend more than you should this Holiday season

On to the giveaway! 5 Chances to Win!

First Prize: Two $50 Visa Gift Cards
Second Prize: One $50 Home Depot Gift Card and One $25 Home Depot Gift Card
Third Prize One $50 Target Gift Card and one $25 Target Gift Card
