There is a lot for moms to manage around the holiday season. It can be magical and exhausting all at the same time! Bethany gives a pep talk this week to all the women out there doing their best to make this the best Holiday season yet!

Welcome back to another week of Motherhood and Money! This week Bethany is talking about ways to save money when shopping this holiday season--but these same tips apply all year!

1. ALWAYS do your research. Check camelcamelcamel.com or Honey for good prices and cash back rewards
2.  Use a shopping portal like Southwest to compare prices online (check out this awesome article with a Shopping Portal Guide)
3.  Install browser extensions like Honey, Rakuten, or RetailMeNot for Cash Back and/or coupon codes
4.  Sign up for the marketing emails then use unroll.me to add them to your rollup
5.  Check opened box options on Amazon–examples of baby steamer and rumble seat
6.  Always check on facebook marketplace for giggles or join buy sell trade groups on Facebook for good deals on items

Things are really different the second time around--especially with babies! Bethany shares the things she did differently before the arrival of the baby, in the hospital, and nursing.
