40-Day Challenge Day 2

If you buy gifts year-round, take a “gift closet” inventory today so you know what you have. Keeping track of what’s available for gift-giving will help you save time and money. Some of your work is already done!

Is there anything more maddening than knowing that you purchased a gift, but now have no idea where you stashed it? (A great idea is to designate a closet, drawer, or box for storing gifts and then putting them there!)

Today, the challenge is to find those gifts and decide who they’re for. Don’t give in to that small voice suggesting it’s not as great a gift as you thought months ago when you purchased it. Trust yourself and move with haste to wrap and tag this great gift. Mark it off your gift list and give yourself a big high five!

We cannot leave this challenge without a nod to “re-gifting.” All you need to know about is right here: The Ultimate Guide to Proper Re-Gifting.

    I have been stashing a few bath and body works for the females this year. I have gotten so many good deals and free stuff from them, I can’t use it all. I have a drawer with gifts to give out this year. Except for 2 people, my shopping is done.

    Mary, I never heard the sound of your voice before. What a lovely voice you have. You sound so young. With the music in the background of this short clip it sounds almost like it was taken out of a Christmas movie.
