Looking For The Best Holiday Deals For Your Beau?

There's no question about it ladies, when it comes to your boyfriend nothing is more important than finding the perfect Christmas present.  BUT...you don't have to pay top dollar when there are great sales all around you.  So if you're looking for the best holiday deals for your Beau then you owe it to yourself (and your wallet) to shop around.

And here's my thinking...if you can save a bit on your boyfriend's present you have a few extra bucks to spend on your dad...OK, just kidding (not really) but at least you can spend more on your mother...OK, fine, yourself.

Whatever your motives or whoever you plan to spend the extra money on is totally up to you (although dad's wallet should count for something, don't you think?


Picture This Christmas Scene

YOU: Merry Christmas (insert boyfriend's name)
BF (boyfriend, not best friend): Hey, Merry Christmas to you, too.
YOU: Because I like you so much I saved and saved and shopped and shopped until I found you the absolutely best Christmas present.
BF (and he better not be looking shocked like he forgot) That's great!  What is it?
YOU: Here you go.  Merry Christmas.

What Is In The Package?

So what did you get him and how do you know he will like it?  The answer is simple...you ladies are the absolute best at picking gifts for your guys (I said that in case my wife of daughter read this :)

Are you fearful he won't like it?  How closely will you watch his face for those telltale signs of joy or "that's nice"?  It is sometimes difficult to know what your guy will like (and remember this when he gives you your gift...and he better not forget!).

Some Tips To Keep Your Sanity

But if you start your shopping now you still have lots of time before Christmas to find the best deals on the things you know he will like.  There will be all kinds of offers coming at you this holiday season so I recommend the following:
  • Start now!...Really, go ahead and start, I'll wait for you.
  • Jot down his likes and dislikes and then prioritize your list for him
  • Figure out how much you have to spend (and, yes, this includes dad's wallet)
  • Plan your shopping trips...both mall and internet
  • Find that one thing (maybe two) that you just know is the perfect gift for him.
  • Buy it
  • AND STOP.  Don't second guess yourself or keep shopping if you have your list and have spent your budget.
Remember...you will not go wrong...because he has you...the best gift of all!

Happy shopping.
