How I plan to spend less than $150 total on Christmas gifts

So I am challenging myself to spend no more than $150 on Christmas gifts. Big ticket folks will be my daughter and my mom and I have no clue what I am getting them.

Here are the gifts that I have bought:


From My Deals Blog:

You can get a set of 3 Built a Bear Shrek Babies for $9. Just go through the link, add the item, use $5 off code 91885 at checkout, and total will be $5 + $4 shipping = $9

I just bought this for my godson.



I also purchased a 6 items of this fragrance from Bath and Body work 2 days ago. My total was $21.60
Per Single Ma:

Select six (6) Bath & Body Works Signature Collection items (any scent) that are on sale 5 for $25. Remember to select SIX of them though. When you view the shopping cart, your total should be $30 plus shipping costs. Then type in the promotion code FROSTY and click apply. Your subtotal will be reduced by $10 and shipping will be reduced to $0. Easy gift set for 20 bucks!

I will split this up into 2 sets (3 in each set) and give it to two folks off my list.


I bought these about 2 months ago and only paid $1.97 for the shipping. (The sale is over even though the link shows the price as $0.)

To date I have spent a total of $32.28 and the gifts I bought will take care of 4 on my list. That leaves 6 remaining (10 total).

I think I got this on lock! :-D Anyone wanna join me in this challenge?? I dare yall!


Off to the Classics in O-town. Have a great Saturday!!

Home Purchase Plan - How I faired

Back in January I developed my Home Purchase Plan (HPP for short). I listed exactly what I was looking for in my new home including my needs and wants. I printed up my HPP and carried it will me everywhere. I especially took it with me when I went house hunting with my agent. I had a momentary relapse (I'll explain more on that on another post) but got back on track and stuck to my guns. I ended up with a beautiful house that fits all my needs and wants. HOME PURCHASE PLAN The home I want: Price: $0 -> $190,000 $180,000 Ideal Monthly Mortgage (including taxes, PMI, HOA, & hazard) : $1200 (max $1300) $1310 Location: Surrounding Orlando Area Check Bedrooms: 3+ 4 Bathrooms: 2+ 2 Square footage: 1700 s.f. + 1810 sf Year Built: 2000+ 1998 HOA: $100/month max $150/yr NEEDS: * A-rated school district Check * Quick access to major highways Check * Good daycare Check * Nice

Yeah......

Hey guys. Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Life has been extremely busy. Trying to get used to the extra responsibilities on top of my existing overflowing list. I will try my hardest to post my do's and don'ts of buying a house tonight. Hope all is well.
