5 Places to Shop for Christmas on a Budget!

12:00 am Blog Post, Mom Life

This year is my first year celebrating Christmas as a mommy of two. My boys and I are pretty excited. I use to wonder how it would be shopping for two children especially with my husband and I not being millionaires. I thought my husband and I would have to make a lot of money, to make sure our children have the best Christmas ever, but that’s not the case. I have found several stores to shop for my sons without spending too much. These places do not sell cheap items either, they are high quality.

I have learned how to shop the smart way and I want to help you do the same. Now, this post is based on my personal experience and I believe it can help you to save a lot of money when shopping for Christmas gifts. Psst! don’t worry if you do not have any of these stores locally, because you can also shop online. Alright, so let’s get to the good stuff.

Carter’s

This is my favorite place to shop for my son’s clothes. They sell all type of children clothes. They have hundreds of sales going on every month. Who likes to save? I know I do. I rather pay half price for something that cost full price. I mean can you blame me? Right now, this store has several items 60 – 70 % off. They also have coupons that you can to purchase their items and that’s more saves. Children can never have too many clothes. Children grow a lot especially if you have boys as I do.

I try to buy clothes from Carter’s when they have a sale, clearance, and free shipping. I know we all love free stuff right? Their clothes are very colorful and they have a lot of nice clothes for Christmas. Such as Elf baby onesie, or “My First Christmas” onesie. I actually purchased some of these for my sons and will be posting them on my Instagram soon. You can check out the pictures there, trust me you will not regret it. Another thing that I love about this store is that if you have more than one child you can purchase matching outfits. It is so easy to purchase matching outfits from Carter’s website. Normally when I click on the item I want to purchase for my sons the item will tell me if it is available in an infant or toddler size. Isn’t that awesome? I know right!

Burlington

This store is awesome! This store sales item up to 65% off. I recommend going to this store if you want something and do not want to pay full price. You can pay less for an item at this store that you can also find at the mall. They have a great clearance section and children items such as clothes and toys. You can purchase a lot of Christmas items from this store without spending a lot of money. They have several stores worldwide and you can also purchase items online at their website. They have several holiday saving items that you can purchase and your children will love. If you are looking to purchase different types of items for your children Christmas, I recommend this place. I call it the all in one store. Instead of driving to different stores looking for Christmas items, you can go just go to this store. Everything is right there ready for you to purchase.

5 Below

My husband told me about this place one year ago. I know, some of you have heard of this store, so I am kind of late. They recently opened up this store in Palm Beach County and I am so happy they did. My personal experience with finding items that children will like is that it is not hard to make a child happy. Most Children loves toys, clothes, and more toys. This place sells toys, games, snacks, room decorations, and so much more.

The best part about is that this store sells all of their items for $5 or below. I try my best to not bring my children with me when I go to this store. If I do, they try to get me to buy the entire store and I cannot do that.
I have to make sure I leave some for the other parents, right? You can also purchase their items online which is great! You can order items for Christmas a few weeks in advance and have them just in time for Christmas. If you are looking to purchase Christmas toys for your children, I highly recommend checking this store out.

Children’s Place

This place remains me of Carter’s, they sell trending clothes for babies and kids. Sometimes I even find items in this store that I can not find at Carter’s. You can purchase your items online or in stores. Speaking of purchasing, right now if you place an order by 5 pm eastern time on December 18th you are guaranteed free delivery by Christmas. That is a deal, I think you should not pass by. You can also earn place cash and right now through 25th you can earn $10 for every $20. Your children can have so many clothes without you spending a lot of money. The place cash can be used on future purchases. This store has several sales year round, so you can start shopping for Christmas as soon as possible.

Kohls

This is a great store, but I do not shop there as often. I only shop there when they have a really good deal, I have to be honest this place is a bit expensive for me most of the time. Kohls sells clothes, electronics, footwear, toys, jewelry and so much more. You can buy their products in store and online.
They have great deals, coupons, and free shipping, and Kohls cash.

This year on Black Friday, they had a really good sale on the Canon EOS Rebel T6 DSLR for $399. I purchased it and received $145 Kohls cash. That was too good of a deal to pass up. I even compared prices at other retails and Kohls had the best deal. With my Kohls cash, I was able to purchase clothes, toys, games and much more for my sons all for free. Black Friday is one of the best time to shop for Christmas gifts for your children. You spend less and get more items. Your children will love them.


I hope you find this post helpful!
Happy Shopping!

    Thanks love! That is the reason I bought it. It feels good to be able to take great quality photos. The reason I checked kohls, is because of this app called Shopular. It has all the store ads. I was able to compare prices and Kohls was the cheapest.
