OK. This doesn't have much to do with writing tips, grammar watch-outs, or business observations, but it sure does have a lot to do with the fact that, right now, I'm completely preoccupied with the calendar relentlessly telling me that the holidays are fast approaching, and I've got to start getting my consumer cap on. If you're in that mode too, here are a few places you could check out.
1. The Clymb. Are you or one of your giftees outdoorsy? Do you CrossFit? Do you like a great deal on name brands like Merrell, Inov8, Keen, Columbia, and more? Pop on over to The Clymb, a site that has it all. And if you use this link to the site, sign up for free, and make a $50 purchase on already marked-down gear, you'll automatically get a $15 credit. You're welcome.
2. Ebates. If you're an online shopper, Ebates is your friend. It's a wonderful system of rewards for doing what you'd already do. Just go to Ebates, sign up for free, and then browse the hundreds of stores they're connected to. Each store is attached to a different percent back from a buy--sometimes 2%, sometimes even %15. You'll be able to shop department stores, drugstores, and even group-savings sites like LivingSocial and Groupon. Once you click through from your account on Ebates, make a purchase, and have your purchase go through, the Ebates team credits your account the proper amount. Payout isn't immediate, but if you build up enough, you can get a nice check or Amazon store credit every quarter. Especially around the holidays, it's worth it!
3. And while we're on savings, check out Freebies2Deals. This site is managed by a gal who keeps her eye on all kinds of savings, from everyday groceries to flash sales on big-name sites. Sign up for her email, and you'll be notified of a collection of deals each day. I've scored some great gifts cheap by monitoring her emails. Enjoy!
