The Holidays are Coming! The Holidays are Coming!

Believe it or not, Christmas is actually coming…fast. And if you’re not careful, you just might find yourself dashing through the mall at 10 p.m. on Christmas Eve on a frantic search for any reasonable gift for a loved one.  Don’t let this scenario happen to you! Make the holiday season bright by getting all of your holiday shopping done in one fell swoop (and saving tons of cash while you’re at it.)

Once upon a time there was a school of thought that stated that giving cash or any type of gift certificate or gift card to anyone was tacky and thoughtless. Well, that notion has since left this planet forever. Gift cards are not only practical since they allow the recipients to choose whatever they’d like, but they’re also easy to purchase—you can pick up gift cards for a number of different retailers at grocery stores and drug stores all over the country. But (and here’s the absolute best part) thanks to Cardpool you can save lots and lots of money on gift cards too.

Not only does Cardpool let people sell their unwanted gift cards for cash, but you can also buy gift cards for up to 35% off the value of the card. As I click through the website at this very moment, Cardpool is offering $50 Cheesecake Factory gift cards for only $46 (a savings of 8%), and $50 Target gift cards for only $40 (a savings of 20%). And have I mentioned that all shipping is free?!

A quick scroll around the site is all it takes to get just about all of your holiday shopping done—no fuss no muss. Then you can spend Christmas Eve sitting by the fire with family and friends waiting for Santa and Christmas Day.

A Musical Union

With Father’s Day around the corner, you may struggle between giving a gift that’s practical versus one that’s sentimental. Bonding with Dad about music this Father’s Day might be the best way to reach a happy medium.   

Inner Musician: You can always sing along with your father to his favorite tune, but with an instrument of his own, you two can create music together. If he plays the guitar, or has always wanted to, Father’s Day is the perfect time to buy him the guitar of his dreams. Check out retailers like Guitar Center and Musician’s Friend for top-quality musical instruments. Guitar Center is even offering $30 off purchases of $199 or more (code: PAPA30), which will make your Father’s Day gift even more affordable.

More Memories: If Dad already has a guitar collection, you can still give him the gift of music. Sign him up for piano lessons or lessons on any other instrument that he’s always wanted to learn. You can even sign up to take lessons together. The idea of making a new memory with your father should erase your worries over a gift, as this present will allow you to show your love by spending time with him. What better way to celebrate Father’s Day then by enhancing your father/son bond as two aspiring musicians and music lovers.
