Ever since eBay launched, I have been buying things on their website. Whenever I need to find something I need to buy (besides groceries), I can usually find it on eBay. Not only have I been an customer on the Ebay website, I have also sold many things through auctions and even had my own eBay store at one time. I just LOVE the site and plan on doing some of my holiday shopping on eBay next month.

My daughter Hannah is really wanting that Fortune Cookie Maker that she keeps seeing on TV commercials. I searched on eBay and I have some different options available. I can either Buy It Now for $42.98 or I can bid on another auction for the product in hopes of getting it for a cheaper price. Sometimes you can find Free Shipping Deals with the Buy It Now auctions to make buying it online cheaper than wasting gas going to the store for the item.

If you ask my son what he wants this year, he really wants the Farmville Hungry Herd game. When shopping on eBay, you have to pay attention to all of your choices. See the two choices below. At first you might thinkt he first option is the best deal since it is only $24.99, but this one has a shipping fee of $7.49. If I was to buy this game, I would definitely go with the section option that offers FREE shipping.

If I was shopping on eBay for my oldest daughter, she has been wanting the Beats by Dr. Dre Monster iBeats Earbuds Headphone. Right now I can score a set of those for only $49.99 with FREE shipping. This totally beats me driving around to the mall or other electronics stores to find these.

Next on my shopping list would be for my second oldest. If she could have anything, she would probably want a pair of Ugg boots which I found on eBay. Now I want another pair! She is also wanting a pair of the glitter Toms like mine, but in silver.

If you haven’t shopped on eBay before, you might want to start out at The Gift Guide. This is a great place to find some great deals for your family, friends or even yourself.

Here are some things you might find at The Gift Guide that might be on your shopping list:

• Kate Spade Handbags
• Nintendo 3DS – this is on my son’s wish list!
• Apple iPhone5
• Babie Dolls
• Keurig Coffee Maker

Growing up, I remember my grandparents always having a tube of Wet Ones wipes in their bathroom. Whenever I needed a quick cleanup when I was at their house, I would grab a wipe out of the tube of Wet Ones. If I was to go to their house today, I guarantee there will be some Wet Ones stocked in their bathroom.

Now that I have a family of my own that includes 4 children, I love having Wet Ones on hand. With all the messes that my youngest two seem to make all the time, the Wet Ones wipes really come in handy, especially when it comes to cleaning their hands. I have Wet Ones Wipes stocked in the pantry, I have a pack in my purse and I also have some in my car.

Wet Ones® Antibacterial Hand Wipes is a twice as handy solution for kids to quickly wipe away messes and kill 99.99 percent of bacteria on hands when soap and water aren’t available.

I am also happy to announce that I am part of the Wet Ones Ambassador Program. I am excited to be a part of this program since I have been using this product for YEARS and will be providing you with some helpful information over the next year about this handy product line.

Not only are the Wet Ones containers handy to use when you need them for a cleanup, my son thinks its fun to stack them! It was also his idea for me to take this picture of him for my post.  🙂

If you have been reading my blog, you might know that I LOVE personalized gifts. Not only do I like to order them for gifts for others, I do on occasion like to order something personalized for myself. Instead of personalizing a gift for someone else this time or the family, I made something for me!

I just LOVE Red Envelope and have always been pleased with my orders that I have received. Since the spelling of my first name isn’t so common, I can’t always find things that have my name on them. When I seen the personalized cutting board on their website, I had to have it. I am always in the kitchen and recently I have been wanting to buy a wood cutting board to use instead of the plastic one that I have.

When my cutting board arrived, I was so excited to take it out of the box. I am a big fan of wood products and I couldn’t wait to see my name on my new cutting board. I felt like a kid taking a toy of of the box, I really did.

My new cutting board is prettier than I imagined it was going to be. This board is handmade in the USA and made of sustainable solid maple. I have it displayed in my kitchen and have to use it. I sort of want to find a way to hang it on the wall and not let it get dirty, even though I know that it is meant to get dirty.

Here are some additional features I want to share:

• Choice of  design (elk, silverware, pig, rolling pin)
• Personalization designs lasered into the center of the board
• Juice moat to prevent spills when carrying
• Measurements: 20″ x 14″ x 1″H

This is just one of the fun and unique gifts I have found at Red Envelope. To find more fun gift idea, visit: www.redenvelope.com
