Gift Cards!!!

I really love how gift cards have become so popular for people to use and receive as presents these days. I managed to receive a nice little bundle of them this year and look forward to using them for things that I find and want. I love the challenge of researching and comparing products online. It beats the heck out of going out and dealing with all the issues that go along with shopping and believe me I have a lot of issues with shopping. I’ve become so spoiled by the Internet that I just don’t see the need to go out when I can stay in and get much better deals, better service and a whole lot bigger selection online.

I have a few items that I will be looking into soon, some new linens and bedding for my new mattress is definitely in order. I’ve been waiting for after Christmas see what selections are reduced. From Clothes to Home Furnishings and Decor, there are just a massive amount of savings to be found with having Internet access, you gotta love it! I use ShopWiki.com a lot and would urge anyone into checking them out when venturing out there.

Not very often do I get what I call “good mail” since the majority of mail that finds its way into my mailbox is a bill or advertisement, neither of which do I enjoy receiving and dealing with. It used to be that once in a while a card or a letter could be found waiting for me to open, those days are long gone compliments of the Internet. LOL! The days are pretty much gone that I would get dozens of Christmas cards in the mail. I think last year I received a total of 3, with the majority of my Season’s Greetings being said and done online.

But today I got a piece of “good mail” not only was it a Christmas card but it had a healthy VISA gift card included in it that just about floored me when I opened the card and saw the amount clearly written on it. My Great Aunt Pearl, bless her heart, was feeling very generous this year and it didn’t take me long to figure out what I want to do with this particular blessing. Check out this sweet looking kitchenaid artisan mixer – candy apple 90th anniversary edition with free glass bowl that I think I will order when the weekend rolls around again.

I plan on spending a good part of this up and coming weekend online. While I’m at it I think I’ll be keeping my eyes open for the parts for the saucepan racks that I need to get that all installed and out of the way as well as trying to find a great deal on some lion sabatier stainless steel knives to complete the set that I’ve been working on for several years now. My kitchen is always a work in progress and I’m always wanting/needing something or another, but I do spend a good amount of time in there so my kitchen is important to me.

Thanks Aunt Pearl, you’re a doll!
