eBay HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE


I love my kids dearly but I really prefer not to go out and shop with them. With 4 kids 7 years old and under and pregnant with our 5th it's a difficult task! So I try to make my life easier and shop from the comfort of my own home on-line!
 
 
 
For years my husband and I have shopped on eBay. In the past my husband has taught me some valuable tips which have helped me win my placing bid. I have purchased clothing, homeschool supplies, toys and Christmas gifts on e-Bay and have always been completely satisfied with the results! Not only have I purchased items on e-Bay but I have sold items on eBay too! We find it super friendly and easy to use!
 
We are very thrifty and when we are looking for a product we typically go to e-Bay as one of the first places to look up pricing and place our big.
 
Here are a few features that we enjoy that e-Bay offers:
 
Buy-It now option - with this you do not need to wait till the auction is over you just simply agree to pay the seller's price and the item is yours!
 
When looking for an item of interest you can search several different ways: auctions ending soon, priced lowest, item location, brand and more!
 
Buyers can look at the sellers feedback.
 
e-Bay offers a watch list which gives you the day and time that the auction is ending so that you can watch the status of the auction.
 
 

 
 
Here are some great holiday gift suggestions that you can find on e-Bay for loved ones:
 
My 7 year old son: Batman Wii Video Game
My 5 year old son: LEGO Technic Jet Plane
For our new baby due in April: Jellycat Doll
My stepfather: DeWalt Tool Set
My best friend: Nook Simple Touch
My grandma: Natori Bedding
 
 
Are you stumped on ideas for loved ones for Christmas? e-Bay offers a Holiday Gift Guide where they have suggestions on items that are being offered on their site.  With items even shipping for FREE shipping! Time is of importance in our busy lives so e-Bay has come up with you to shop anywhere or anytime with their new The eBay mobile app
 
For more eBay you can follow them on Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest!
 
“I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour for Mom Central Consulting on behalf of e-Bay. I received a promotional item to thank me for taking the time to participate.”

  1. I have never attempted the auctions on Ebay-if I want something I usually just use the buy it now feature--one of these days I might just try the auction-they really do have an amazing selection to choose from for the holidays or any other time of the year.
