12 Days of Savings; Day 6
On the sixth day of savings my true love gave to me… Six fleece-lined layers… Five golden things, Four calling cards, three custom pens, two fluffy gloves, and a gift card to JC Penney’s.. Layers are the key to staying warm during these chilly winter days. Layers lined with fleece are extra warm and fluffy. Fleece may not be tres chic, but heck, it’s warm when the weather turns gloomy and gray. A few of my favorite fleece-lined items: Sweatshirts – fleece lined...

On the fifth day of savings my true love gave to me… Five golden things….. Four calling cards, three custom pens, two fluffy gloves, and a gift card to JC Penney’s.. Okay, I’d be fine with anything made of gold. But giving gold for the holidays isn’t very frugal (and doesn’t fit in with my “savings” theme).

Though it doesn’t achieve the same result (free phone calls) it’s a great stocking stuffer for those that...

On the third day of savings my true love gave to me.. Three custom pens.. two fluffly gloves, and a gift card to JcPenney’s.. I can’t ever find a generic pen in my house when I need one. They seem to vanish into thin air. One moment I have a pile of them in my desk drawer and the next the dust bunnies have taken their vacant spot next to the stamps. However, I seem to be able to hold onto nice, custom pens. The ones I often receive as stocking stuffers are the ones I can find when...

On the second day of savings my true love gave to me…. Two fluffly gloves, and a gift card from JC Penney’s…. I like wearing gloves in winter. They’re a necessity even where I live; sunny California. The brisk winter weather can be fended off by wearing gloves and scarves. As long as my extremities are warm, I’m warm. I truly appreciate receiving gloves and scarves as holiday gifts. It’s the perfect timing to receive such a gift and I can never have too many...
