 Anyone else feeling a little bombarded by big retailers this year? I guess I should probably get better with the “unsubscribe†button, but every day I get a good 25-50 emails from different stores touting all kinds of sales. Thankfully I have DVR, so I can skip most of the TV commercials, but I know they’re out there too.
What’s even more crazy is that my husband and I were at Best Buy the Friday BEFORE Thanksgiving and there was a tent with people camping outside for Black Friday deals. I’m not sure what kind of deals they were offering, but that just seemed plain old crazy to me. I love a good sale just as much (if not more) than the next guy, but I can’t think of a single sale that I’d give up a week of my life for.
Anyway, now that I have that out of the way. I do love the holiday season and the giving and receiving that comes along with it. For the last few years I’ve been doing a lot of shopping online and really love Etsy.
In case you’re not familiar, Etsy is an e-commerce site that focuses mainly on handmade and vintage goods. Since almost anyone can open up an Etsy shop, it’s a perfect place to support small businesses and to find some really unique stuff. Of course, the downside is that there’s a whole lot of garbage on Etsy too, but that’s always good for a few laughs.
If you haven’t finished shopping for the ladies on your list yet, and have already purchased a photo session with Boudoir Coterie, I highly recommend giving Etsy a gander. To make things easier for you, I’ve put together a guide with some fun , and relatively inexpensive, stuff I found in my own browsing. Enjoy!
