In today’s world everyone is looking for ways to save money. Holiday gift giving will be no exception. Here are some tips on working within a budget and some great ideas for gift giving on a budget.
Get creative in finding gifts to fit your budget. We hope our lists can give you ahead start in checking everyone’s name off your list.
Create a Budget
In working with a limited amount of cash it is recommended that you first establish a budget of what you can afford to spend.
Next, make a list of everyone you wish to buy for. Separate them into categories if necessary. For example you may spend more on each family member than you would on the people in your office.
Lastly, look for cool gifts that still make a statement but stay in budget.

Stocking stuffers are often an afterthought during the gift buying process. We often dismiss the task thinking it will be easy. Sometimes that is not the case.
Buying the right stocking stuffers can be a challenge. Space is limited in a stocking so it is best to determine your goals first. Are you looking to fill it with a few “big” thins or many “little” things? Having a game plan before you start shopping can save you time and energy. If you buy too many little knick knacks it can end up taking an hour to pull everything out of the stocking!
Finding a unique stocking stuffer can become a real conversation piece long after the Christmas tree is gone. Here are some stocking stuffer ideas for everyone on your list. The lists include everything from the practical to the entertaining to the truly unique.
Many times Moms handle the bulk of the Christmas shopping for the family. As a result sometimes purchasing Mom’s gifts are forgotten or are shopped for at the last minute.
Moms are precious. We want to help you get Mom great gifts this year. Here are some gift ideas. Hopefully these will get your creativity flowing to uncover gift ideas that your Mom will love.
The Holiday Season is upon us,and there much shopping to be done. Shopping for students can sometimes be difficult for aunts, uncles, parents and grandparents. You could try and buy the latest laptop, cell phone or iPad only to have your student ask for the upgrade in a week! High school students, as well as college students always want the latest and greatest products.
We suggest another idea…gift cards! You can get gift cards for so many things restaurants, grocery stores, iTunes, your students favorite clothing store or just give them a bank gift card they can use anywhere (BEWARE of hidden fees). Now w know what you’re thinking “I don’t want to just hand them a gift card!” A creative way to give your student this particular gift is to slide it into a Maggie Bags Wallet, Tote, Cosmetic bag or Executive Laptop Bag. This allows you to give an actual gift that lets your student be the next “Green” trend setter, as well as gives them a surprise.
Where can you get gift cards?
Drugstores and Superstores: They have walls full of gift cards from any place you could imagine. You can run in and run out or grab these gifts while doing your grocery shopping
Online: If you can’t make it out to a store to pick up one of these little plastic super gifts you can always go online and have one mailed to you.
High School Students like:
Gift cards from:
Their favorite clothing store: so they can get that shirt they saw last week
The movies: they can go see the new Twilight when it comes out
Gas stations (if they have a car): help them get where they want to go
College Students like:
Gift Cards from:
Restaurants: College students love to eat! Try fast food gift cards to places like McDonalds , Starbucks gift cards are great for those late nights of studying OR give them a gift card to their favorite sit down restaurant they can treat themselves and you can pick up the tab without even being there
Gas stations: This is really helpful if your student lives off campus
Target or Walmart: College students adore these one stop shops
From Maggie Bags for Any Student:
Medium Tote: a great everyday size bag, not too big or too small
Executive Laptop: If your student carries their laptop to class this bag will hold it in style along with pens, pencils and notebooks
Cosmetics Bag: high school girls love experimenting with makeup, give them something to keep it organized
Campus Tote: good everyday bag with thicker straps, looks great weather you are wearing sweats or dressing up.
Large Tote: I have this bag and it is great for everyday, on campus or just running errands.

This year will be an excellent year to find great discounts on the products you love. Sometimes it is hard to sift through all the discounts and offers available for Black Friday and Cyber Monday shoppers. Planning ahead can save you time and money.
The Maggie Bags team is always looking for great deals when we shop too. To help us all we have put together a quick list of Black Friday and Cyber Monday deal sites. These sites, along with others, provide comprehensive lists of deals, discount codes and coupons.
This fall, trends are changing from the usual darker gray, black and brown hues to brighter, more exciting colors such as yellow, green, and purple. Generally thinking, these colors would only show up in the current tops of the season, but on the contrary, they are in bottoms too! The popular cuts of the season are one shouldered crop tops and dresses, as well as larger, sheer blouses. We also see trends heading back to high waisted pencil skirts and continuing towards straight legged jeans and leggings that began to come back into style last season. When paired together, these items create a new, chic look any female could feel comfortable in, while looking trendy.
In addition to slimming, bright pants, long dresses are also becoming more and more popular. In all sorts of colors, these long, fitted dresses come in anything from solid prints to wild and exciting designs.
To complete these new trendy outfits you put together throughout the season, don’t forget you will need a new trendy bag to go with them as well! Maggie Bags is just the place for you. In our selection, we have a large collection not only of neutral colored bags, but also bright and multi-colored bags that will match any outfit you pick perfectly.
