The holidays are a time for joy and magic, but let's be honest, they can also be stressful. Between shopping, decorating, and planning gatherings, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. But fear not! Here are two hacks to help you simplify your holiday shopping and even earn some extra cash!

Tip 1: Get CASH Back with Shopping Extensions:

Level up your online shopping game with browser extensions that offer cashback rewards! Several options are available but these are my two favorites for passive income!

How does it work? Activate the extension links below.  When you go to a participating online retailer a button to activate your reward will automatically pop up.  IF both pop up, I compare the two offers and choose the higher percentage. And “ta-da” a month or so later the cashback is automatically added to my account!

RAKUTEN:

Using this extension really adds up.  I’m so grateful to the friend who shared this resource with me.  On average I earn $275 a year and I’m not a super shopper! 

Here is my Rakuten partner link to share with YOU!

 CHIRPIEST:

Works the same way but has a different roster of stores than Rakuten in my experience. Having both extensions means one or the other will pop up to get me cash back!

Tip 2: Create a “RETAIL Email” Address

Ditch the paper clutter and promotional chaos in your personal inbox! Create a separate email address specifically for online and in-store shopping. Choose a simple name that's easy to remember and to spell when sharing with instore cashiers, like "LindaShops@gmail.com”

Benefits of a Retail Email:

Reduced Paper Clutter: No more paper receipts clogging up your wallet or drawers!

•  Clean Personal Inbox: Keep your personal emails free from promotional messages.
•  Quick Deal Searching: Use the retail email to easily find offers and coupons online.
•  Order Tracking Ease: Track your holiday packages and manage deliveries efficiently.

By following these 2 simple tips to save time and money you can transform your holiday shopping experience from stressful to streamlined.
