Cyber Monday and I Ordered Gifts for Me!

United States
November 27, 2017 5:40am CST
Today on this Cyber Monday, I decided to pamper myself. Started looking for gifts for others and ended up buying for myself. I needed a light winter jacket, found just what I wanted on sale. Also needed to replace my bottle of perfume because I have very little left. It wasn't on sale, but I bought it anyway. I use Ebates and was able to get 4% of my purchase back. They mail a check to you every 3 months. I don't get big buck back, but the extra jingle in my pocket is always appreciated. I did buy 2 packages of Propel water. We go through that like water, pardon the pun. It is flavored water. This is the only beverage besides coffee that my husband will drink. Will I venture online again to see what I can find for deals? Maybe, maybe not. But, for now, I am happy with my new items that I can pick up at Walmart in 2 days. Do you remember to take care of yourself too? Ever used Ebates?

I don't shop online unless I have to-so if there is something that I feel that I just have to have and cannot find it elsewhere, so no, I've never used Ebates.

I try to buy from brick and mortar stores. Often times I can't find what I need.

That's great. You made me remind that I also need a winter jacket. I will be seeing one for me.

Better to get one early before the selections are gone!

Hehe this made me smile knowing I too usually do the same. I look for gifts for others and ended up buying for myself.

I have an Ebates account, but I've never used it. I did Cyber shop yesterday too, and yes, I bought for me as well as my kids. I bought a Chromebook on Amazon. Fantastic price. I saw them last week at Best Buy and the sales clerk told me all about them and how easy they are to work. It was $350. Amazon's Cyber Monday sale $99. Now that's a savings I couldn't pass up.

@ElusiveButterfly I'm glad I did. I know it's scheduled to arrive early next week, but the last time I ordered something from them I had it the next day. And I don't have Amazon Prime. However, Amazon is opening more warehouses so it can arrive sooner than expected. I hope so for the Chromebook. I really don't want to be disappointed again with another laptop. Though my laptop did start working faster the other day after I had looked at the Chromebook at Best Buy. Do you think electonics know what you're up to?

I haven't used Ebates and I don't buy for myself much other than essentials. But occasionally I'll lash out on something for myself.

@JudyEv I couldn't find my size in the store and it was available online and was on sale too. It was a win win situation.

I rarely buy anything for myself. I almost passed on both, but at the price of the coat, it seemed to call my name.

@ElusiveButterfly You needed a coat and it was a good price so what's not to like? Just feel good every time you put it on.
