Hit the stores armed and prepared!

I'm just so excited about the upcoming season of holiday shopping that I have been spending all weekend getting started on finding the best in Black Friday/Cyber Monday/entire season deals.

Of course, surviving the holiday is dependent on finding the smartest ways to spend our money. Check out the awesome iVillage feature on holiday shopping tips - on the net, and off: What you need to know before you hit the stores.

I'm going to try to inundate all of you with as many tips as I can find, as well, this season. But if you have any of your own, please share them here!
