It’s true! Every year – for the past probably 5 years or so – Christmas has been completely FREE For me and my family. No more wondering where we are going to get the money from or how we are going to do it. I get it , I get it, this is all starting to sound far-fetched, and you are waiting for the “Catch”. There really isn’t any! Here I am going to tell you how I do it year after year, step by step.
The first key to getting Christmas for free is to start as early as possible. Me, for example, I start on December 26th! However, it’s not too late for you to start now.
The next thing I do is work on a bunch of different ” beer money ” apps and webpages to earn some extra cash. Now, I am not going to lie to you. These beer money apps and webpages are not going to pay the rent for you. They are what they sound like – extra money for beer ( or coffee ). They make you a little money each month. BUT added up over the course of a year and WOW!

Next Step: Follow the sales!
But how do you do that?!? You can start by following hashtags on Instagram for your favorite stores. Here are some examples: #WalmartClearance #TargetClearance #targetClearanceFinder #TargetClearanceFinds
There are TONS ( 1,000’s probably ) of Facebook groups dedicated just to following sales of specific major retailers. Often these groups know about the sales before anyone else does.
Lastly, holiday clearance is great for getting the best deals. I’ve gotten a TON of gifts at 90% Off Holiday clearance sales. Don’t dismiss holidays like 4th of July or Easter either. I have found GREAT stocking stuffers and other items during these holiday sales!
Always, ALWAYS use a price comparison tool!
If you don’t use a price comparison tool how to do you know if you’re getting a good deal or not?!? Good new is there are a ton of them available for you to use these days! Popcart compares the prices of the item you are looking at dozens of other retailers, a mini window pops up and shows you the same item on other retailers’ websites, showing you quickly and easily who has the best price. It is important to note that currently Popcart only works on a desktop or laptop computer, NOT mobile devices.
