It's a great time to start putting together your gift-giving lists. While shopping, if you come across an item that you think your friend or family member will enjoy, write down the item, store and price in a notebook or your PDA.
When you are ready to start your shopping, you won't have to worry about wandering around multiple stores looking for that "perfect" gift. Your notebook will remind you where to find an appropriate gift for everyone on your list, and you may even be lucky enough to catch those items on sale. Save time and money by shopping smart!
