3 Top Tips for Holiday Gifts & Savings with Groupon Coupons

Holiday season is here....YAAAASSSS!!!! With holiday season comes holiday parties, holiday hosting AND plenty of gift giving! I don't know about you, but my pockets are tight. So, I try to find a bargain or deal wherever I can.  

When it comes to coupons, there is no shame in my game.  I usually clip them from magazines or mailers and use them to purchase groceries.  Until recently, I never thought about finding savings any other way, until I learned about Groupon Coupons .

Now, I am  not living under a rock, of course I've 'heard' of Groupon before, I just never bothered looking into it until a friend of mine hipped me to all the great savings. So, I decided to check it out and I could not believe how awesome the savings were! With so many holiday events coming up, I want to be sure I get the most bang for my buck. I'm pretty sure that Groupon is where it's at. After searching through the site, I realized there are many ways to save this holiday season especially when you do it strategically!

It's a good idea when looking for savings to not just pick a deal simply because it's a good deal; try and go for what you know. I searched on Groupon for savings on hostess gifts and found really good ones from Shari's Berries and Wine.com. These are two products and brands that I am personally familiar with so, the cost vs savings factor goes way up in my book.  Plus, I think any host or hostess would love sweet delicious chocolate strawberries and in my social circle, wine is always a welcomed gift! (Tip: Search brands you know - helps you get the most of the cost savings experience)

You can find plenty more gift ideas for your family and friends from other amazing brands that you know and love.  If you need to spruce up your home for the holidays, head to Bed, Bath and Beyond. Winter weather means warm boots for the family - check out the savings on Shoes.com Looking to find the perfect holiday party dress?  Check out deals from Dress Barn.  Need a centerpiece for your holiday table?  Order a beautiful floral arrangement on From You Flowers.com (Tip: Have a plan in place for your holiday shopping, know who you are shopping for, get the best deals on Groupon and SLAY your sleigh - haha!) 

On top of shopping I have been dying to do a few fun things locally with my family.  My kids have wanted to ride the Capital Wheel at National Harbor since it's opening but I always felt it was way too expensive.  A typical ride is $30 per person.  I found a great Groupon Coupon that costs $40 for four tickets....that's $10 per person four our family.  To add to that, every year we've wanted to really check out Ice at Gaylord National.  Well, Groupon has an extremely good deal on this seasonal attraction that makes it way more affordable for us now.  With Groupon, I have find a new addiction happy place!

(Tip #3 - Go local - Groupon offers a wide variety of savings deals for local events and shops in your area.  Get the best deals for your family fun outings this holiday season)
