It’s that time of year again!  Whether you like it or not, the holiday’s are right around the corner and I know my kids are already on the hunt for their Christmas list  “must-have” items.  Personally, I LOVE the holidays.  My kids are at the perfect age for enjoying everything magical about Christmas.  Unfortunately, my pocketbook doesn’t always produce a magical amount of money.  We have to shop smart and thrifty and the Black Friday sale items are just one of the ways I try to stretch my (very tiny) budget.  But, who really wants to go out at 3am on Black Friday and freeze their butts off while standing in an enormous line for the best sale item?

Um.  Not me.

I have gone out on Black Friday, but I’ve never been ambitious enough to score a “door-buster” item.  I guess I’m just too lazy.  My mom and I head out at the more respectable hour of 9am and it is a lot less stressful and a lot more safe (no door-buster trampling deaths in my family!).

What if I told you that there was an easier way?  A way to still score amazing holiday deals, all from the comfort of your couch?  Well.  There is!

Sam’s Club has created a way for members to get the best holiday steals without leaving the house by using the Connect & Save shopping method. By using your iPad, mobile phone, or visiting www.samsclub.com, you can avoid the crowds and get your holiday shopping done simply and stress-free.

Right now through December 24, members AND non-members can connect to SamsClub.com/gifts, a solution for every aspect of holiday planning. SamsClub.com/gifts features a daily “Holiday Value of the Day” including online exclusives, gifts with free shipping, instant savings and any other holiday Sam’s Club details that you might need.

Sam’s Club has even enhanced their mobile app this season so you can create custom shopping and gifting lists, view customized eValues and organize your entire shopping experience.  (If you don’t have the Sam’s Club iPhone Ap yet, get it, it’s fabulous!)

Members can also take advantage of the Sam’s Club Click ‘N Pull service where products are selected online and ready for pickup in Club the next day. If email is your thing, Sam’s Club offers a special Buy of the Day where you receive a new alert in your inbox everyday highlighting an item on sale.

So, stay home this holiday shopping season and curl up with the kids.  Let Sam’s Club do all the running around for you!  Keep up with more sanity savers by following Sam’s Club on Facebook and Twitter.
