Who love’s to shop? … A better question might be, who doesn’t enjoy shopping? The only thing I know that doesn’t like when I spend my afternoon at the mall is my wallet.

So, how can I still have my weekly shopping fix, while on a budget? Simple follow these great ideas & you will leave your wallet smiling!

1. Shop at large stores: Yes small boutique’s are super cute, and always have trendy things. However, when you shop at a large department stores they usually offer great discounts because they have a higher merchandise turnover.

2. Save on Shipping: Don’t shop online, just to shop online. Yes, it’s totally convient, but most online stores will have atleast one promotion monthly, that includes free shipping. Or if you really can’t wait to buy those new shoes you seen online at your favorite website, team up with a friend, and place a huge order, most companies will also offer free shipping over a certain amount of money being spent.

3. The Giftcard! Break these out of your wallet, and use them!! Also, if you have been holding on to this giftcard because your not overly crazy about the store, but you don’t want to get rid of it.(Cause who want’s to give anyway a giftcard!?)Don’t worry just check out plasticjungle.com you can sell your giftcards on there!
