I usually order gifts for kids online so it's one less errand for me to run. Just wondering if anyone knows of a good site where I can find something for boys and girls (I always buy the same thing) for about $10-$20 per kid? One year I spent $30 per kid and that got a little pricey for my budget. Last year I found these really cute, soft dogs on amazon.ca for $10 a piece and they were a big hit around here. If I can't think of anything I might get cats this year lol
When you order from Amazon it's plus shipping costs right? I love the idea of the same thing for boys and girls. I don't have any sites but will keep an eye on this thread.
check out Ebates when you order through them they direct you to the site like amazon and you get a percent back in form of a cheque. Also tho the best is Aliexpress.com i use it all the time cheap cheap!!!
Amazon is fantastic as you get free shipping over $25. I keep my eye open for sales all year round so some years their gifts have been purchased in the summer.
I use Chapters a lot of the time. They have a lot of gifts in the $10 - $20 range.
I literally just went through my toy/gift stash last night and got it organized for Christmas lol. I had stuff in there I had forgotten about! 3 of the 4 kids are done though :) I buy things throughout the year to have on hand for birthdays and Christmases.
Lately I've been buying items from aliexpress. I got each child a shirt to go along with their gift...waiting on 2 to arrive still!
I crochet so this year I made all the kids cute hats and mittens, will also give a book. Finances are tight this year.
I'm all about books here! I usually scout out Chapters/Indigo bargain bin ;) If you are in the GTA area, there is a Samko & Meeko (sp?) warehouse. The books are ridiculously cheap. but that does require going out to shop :)
We have value valet (value drug mart's online store), they have some nice Melissa and Doug and crayola stuff for under $10. Plus it's free shipping for over $25 (for alberta anyway). That and I order from scholastic at my sins school. The books I buy end up being $2-5 each.
Last year I crochet snowmen hand puppets and then gave then the Frosty the Snowman book I bought through scholastic - if you don't have your own kids in school ask a neighbour if they get the flyers.
I usually go to winners for daycare gifts, they usually have great deals on toys and books its easy to find something nice for under $20. Also if you have a micheals near you, they have some nice toys - lots of melissa and doug and you can use their weekly 40% off coupon, I did that last year and bought one toy a week. For online shopping Ive only ever used chapters.
