Saturday Shopping with Me and My Friends #6

Welcome to Saturday Shopping at this Small House

It’s the third Saturday of the month and I’m shopping with my friends! I never know what they are going to share so it’s always a surprise for me. They also share things that end up in my cart too!

I’m going to guess that they might be doing what I’m doing. Last minute and stocking stuffers.

On my blog Living Large in A Small House, I may sometimes use affiliate links, which means a small commission is earned if you purchase via the link. The price will be the same whether you use the affiliate link or go directly to the vendor’s website using a non-affiliate link. You can find my full Disclosure Policy HERE

These are the things that I’m buying this week.

• My kids and “Handy” still like to get candy for their stockings so I stocked up today with boxes of candy at Target
• A new year is a time for a new calendar and a new planner
• I wasn’t planning on buying Christmas Jammies because we weren’t going to be together but that all changed when our daughter and bonus son’s baby decided to make an early appearance. Everyone has Jammies on sale. There are these at Target and these at Soma.

What My Friends Are Loving

Cindy – Reinvented Delaware

This month I thought I would share some great gift ideas. These gifts are under $50, found on Amazon, and will be here before Christmas if you order SOON! Also, some have an extra coupon box! Look for the orange label that says ‘Coupon’ near the price and check the box next to it to add the coupon to available items. I’ve included some ideas for men, and women, and even a few for teens and kids!

• You can’t go wrong with a Yeti for anyone on your list! The 16 oz Yeti and the 20 oz Yeti Coffee mugs are the perfect size for on-the-go coffee. The 35 oz drink holder with a straw is perfect for the water drinker in your life. If you have someone who likes to take a large amount of hot or cold beverages when they go out, a Stanley Thermos is the best!
• Most men would love to have a lined flannel shirt when they are working outside during the colder months. If you have someone who brings in wood for a fireplace, a good pair of gloves is a must for their hands.
• If you have someone who travels often, a toiletry bag will make packing a breeze! A new hat, scarf, and gloves set sends all the cozy feels to the one receiving the gift along with warm Skechers slippers to keep her feet cozy when she is indoors.
• Who doesn’t need more food storage, especially during the holidays? A Pyrex 18-piece set is a great way to store leftovers. And if you have a cook on your gift list, an enameled cast iron Dutch oven is the perfect gift!
• Here are several gift ideas for young kids, teens, and others who might enjoy them. Some are toys and some are tech items. Click through them to see what might work for those special people in your life! A fun moon lamp to use as a nightlight, a toy camera, a Montessori Puzzle Ball to keep little hands busy, a colorful Bluetooth speaker, a white noise sound machine for the best night of sleep, a portable phone charger for on-the-go-charging, and a bedside phone charging station with a digital clock.
• Last but not least, offer your recipient a gift card. We have given our nieces and nephews Amazon gift cards for over 15 years. Now that they are all adults, they enjoy being able to get what they need or want after the Christmas season.

Diane – South House Designs

Diane here [South House Designs] and I’m all about rounding out the stocking stuffers for our kiddos who are all grown now so these ideas are mainly for the college-age and young professionals in our lives. Plus a few small treats for hostess gifts and a few special girlfriends.

• What Star Wars fan wouldn’t get a kick out of lightsaber chopsticks? Yes, you read that right. And each pair has eight different color options. No more Chinese carryout ho hum!!!
• Shower steamers all around — all genders, all ages! Who wouldn’t love relaxing aromatherapy, or perhaps rejuvenating, or maybe eucalyptus and mint for stuffy breathing relief?
• Magnetic bookmarks are great for the book lover, the skimmer, or maybe the foodie.
• A fun new game is always appreciated in game-loving families. We love this stacking game, this quick card game, and this wordsmith game!!!
• For the music lover or fidgeter, how about some intriguing musical spoons? I know it may sound crazy, but check out this video.

I hope that you enjoyed shopping with me today!

If you made a purchase, please know that we all appreciate it as it helps in a small way to support our small house businesses.

Peace & Love,
