Fun, Frugal Girlfriend Gifts | Thoughtful & Thrifty Gifts for Women

August 25, 2011 – 8:54 am

Thrifty Girlfriend Gifts – it’s the thought that counts!

Thoughtful gifts show we care, that we made an effort to find something perfect for our friend and that we love to make our girlfriends feel as special as their friendship is to us. But when we’re dealing with bills and sometimes debt, we need to show our love in a little less spendy fashion. And that’s where great girlfriend advice and fun, frugal gifts come in!

So this week we’re sharing the best ways to show a friend how much she means to us, or gift to celebrate a girlfriend’s birthday, without breaking the bank.

Back-to-School Gifts for Girlfriends – Celebrate the end of Summer & the start of School!

August 17, 2011 – 7:25 am

Seriously?! Can you believe it’s Back-To-School Time? Thankfully we have our girlfriends to help us adjust and get ready for another BIG year.

Each week we feature some girlfriend gifts as a way of showing your fab friends how much they mean to you. It could be for a birthday or sad day, a just-because-you’re-special day or maybe, at this time of year – aka: back-to-school, it’s a thoughtful way of acknowledging a child going off to school can be an emotional time (or time for celebrating!). And, for our girlfriends who are teachers or work in education, it’s a time of getting back to work and a girlfriend gift (aka: teacher gift) might just cheer up their day.

So, in honor of moms, teachers and all the fab friends with birthdays or special days at this end of summer, here’s a few thoughtful ways to say Read More »

It’s the middle of August and kids are already going back to school, Halloween decorations are in stores and I still haven’t had enough girlfriend pool time yet! That’s Summer for ya!

It’s been a crazy summer here in ‘Girlfriendland.’ We’ve been traveling and seeing some great friends (like Amy’s new home, and girlfriend bloggers like Kelly, Karen and Carole at BlogHer). We (me and my ‘insanely brilliant’ and beautiful, I might add colleague JUDI), just hosted the first that we know of ‘Virtual Pool Party’ (AKA: #GFPoolParty on Twitter and Facebook) this past weekend. It was a HUGE success and we met lots of fabulous new friends, share countless classes of cool and refreshing virtual True Lemon Lemonade and even watched our fun friend Janet get her hair colored during the party! (: We gave out over 20 prizes including a signed copy of CHASING PERFECT by author SUSAN MALLERY, earrings from EVIE ‘N LIZZIE, Girlfriend Cruise Gift Certificate (from Janet, aka: GirlsonaCruise), PURSE PERFECTOR – gave two purse organizers away – for our winner and a

girlfriend, and a bunch of Read More »
