Okay, I’m a mom, and chances are you are too or you’re a dad or maybe a really involved aunt or uncle… Whoever you are, you’ve shlepped, hauled, lugged, cooked, wrapped, unwrapped, cleaned, toasted a passed out. No matter how merry and wondrous; Christmas has been a lot of work. 🙂
So, did you get a gift certificate or two, maybe a little cash envelope or you have a little cash stash? Well, most of us don’t want to spend them or, often our inclinations are to save them for a rainy day. Well, I’m tellin’ ya now, its time to SPEND!!!! And not on the kids, hubby or great grand uncle, but ON YOU! You are reading me right, no time is better than now to treat yourself. And being a mom or others of those above mentioned, you DESERVE it! And you won’t have to feel bad about spending money on yourself cause you will be buying things at the lowest prices of the year.
So, if you are like me, you probably don’t want to go out again (or ever) to the crowed, loud, stores with kids in tow. So here are deals that you can get online over the next two days that will really make your “after Christmas” shopping holiday a blast.
Most places have their clearance  and holiday items on sale a greatly reduced prices here are a list of a few online deals:

If you don’t want to battle the cold or the crowds make sure to make a nice warm beverage and hunker down for an online shopping excursion from December 26th to December 31st you will find some great deals online with most of the stores offering free shipping.
If you want to brave the brick and mortar stores, today was the best day to attack, yet there will still be sales running for at least another day and less crowds, especially at Walmart and Target, so get bundled up and head out after the exchanges have been made by other shoppers.
Even though this is YOUR shopping time, the kids may be biting at the bit to use their gift cards, so here are some deals for kids.

Again if you are reluctant to step foot in another store ever! Here are some great online bargains.
