Christmas

Black Friday Is Finally Here, Ladies!

November 27, 2009 By The Fashionable Housewife

Here at The Fashionable Housewife, we want you to save as much money as possible this Christmas so you’ll have enough money left over to start working on your Spring 2010 wardrobe! So for the next few weeks, expect to see lots of deals and steals that will save you lots of cash.

Because being thrifty is fashionable!

Black Friday is known as the official start of the holiday shopping season because the day after Thanksgiving was traditionally the day that retailers went from being “in the red” (in debt) to being “in the black” (making a profit).

That’s right. It’s time to start forking over the cash so you can buy friends and loved ones all their little hearts desire. Well, maybe not everything, but you do what you can!

We’re going to tell you about all the best deals including coupon codes, free shipping, and gifts with your purchase. It’s going to be a Holiday Shopping Extravaganza today!!!

Stay tuned for the best shopping deals for shopping online!!!!!!

And don’t forget, we’re having 12 Days of Christmas Giveaways starting Dec 1st through the 12th, with a new giveaway starting each day! It’s going to be awesome.

What Do YOU Want For Christmas?

December 24, 2008 By The Fashionable Housewife

Tell us, Ladies! We want to know what you want to find under your Christmas tree tomorrow morning.

A cruise to the Bahamas? The keys to a bran new Ferrari? A million dollars?

Be as unrealistic as you want! We just want to know what your ideal gift is and if you hold any hope of receiving it tomorrow!

What do I want for Christmas? Well thank you for asking! I’m not much of a material girl lately, so I’d just like to lose my last 15 pregnancy pounds before Spring.

I guess a nice, new Treadmill would help! That’s my Christmas wish.

What’s yours?
