Live Life Simply

I have found that life shouldn't be lived to accumulate things but lived as a verb.

Gift Giving

Make a gift list and keep in an excel spread sheet.  This will keep you from having to do the same thing over and over each year.  Plus, you can even list the gift given.

Try going on line to purchase your gifts.  Most stores will give you a discount or waive the shipping fee for purchasing over a certain amount.  Going on line will also save you time, gas and possibly money.  Your less likely to spend more money on line.  Keep an eye out for sales on purchases at the retail stores and start buying now.  MOST IMPORTANT - stay to your list which will keep you in budget.  Nothing like taking all next year to pay for this years gifts.

Set up a spot out of way to wrap gifts.  Don't forget name tags, bags, wrapping paper, tape, scissors.  Go ahead and wrap gifts as you purchase them.  Just put a sticky note on the package what's inside and don't forget the name tag.

Happy Gifting!!!
