I hunt more for deals to post on my blog than to buy--but like you, I think I bought 3 things (the moto, some fabric...and an SD card. Offline, I bought a Yeti mic). After that? Wow. I've really struggled to find anything to post and had to resort to, "Well there's always Amazon giftcards" on the blog. I've trolled more than once through Amazon's daily deals, husband watches TigerDirect (I used to be an affiliate, but it wasn't worth the bother) and what is that other one. NewEgg. I watch ebay for ebay gift cards at a discount, but this year it was 5 dollars off a 100 dollar giftcard. No thanks. Too much money out for too little gain. Last year I picked up a 50 for 40, although that was after the holidays.

The Amazon 30 percent off a print book was kind of exciting for me, but it ended at the end of Nov...and that was the last marginally cool deal I've seen.

I'm done with my personal Christmas shopping (although Mom had two last minute requests--a book bag and armrest covers. Could she think of these in JULY??? for heaven's sake??)

I get all kinds of emails from Jockey, Target, MakingCosmetic, BrambleBerry, etc. Nothing of real value or interest.
