Many Canadian Seniors Stuff Stockings For Free - You Can Too!
Many Canadian seniors are feeling the pinch these days and they are scrambling for ways to save on those many holiday traditions. If this applies to you too - don't be blue - upholding holiday traditions doesn't have to cost a whole slew!
This post has a few ideas on how you can get small gifts to tuck into stockings for free.
Frankly, I have become more than a little cranky about this so-called holiday that makes so many people so stressed and depressed - not just at Christmas, but months before and after too.
Hopefully, this post might help some people not end up in shock with after-Christmas credit card bill shock.
