I love deals!  I love shopping for deals, but at Christmas with so much shopping to be done, and crowds at the stores, I really love shopping online!

I’m sure if you’ve been reading my blog for very long, you know I am a big fan of retailmenot.com and ebates.com.

But I’m also a big fan of eBay.  Yes, I know you’ve all heard of ebay, and know that I use it. And I don’t have a bunch of rules about eBay to share because I’m not that dedicated. (But I know people who are that dedicated!).

But eBay is a great place to find anything Pampered Chef, Tupperware, Mary Kay, etc.  for a great deal!  I like it because I can get the stuff without the hassle of using a consultant and usually getting a break on price or at least shipping!  And unless it’s a discontinued product, you can almost always find it new!

My most recent finds:

• a replacement for my PC mini-baker (that got broken when I let Maria empty the cupboards) – retails for $21.75 + shipping, I got it with shipping for $20.50 and in a discontinued color that I preferred!
• a Christmas gift: Mary Kay Satin Hands- retails for $30 + shipping or finding a consultant to deliver. I got it for $17.50 shipped.

Do any of you have some great eBay stories or tricks?  Leave them in the comments!
