The Best Websites To Shop From During The Holidays


Halloween is officially over, so bring out the mistletoe, eggnog, blast those Christmas carols and get in the Christmas mood cause it's time to get shopping for the ones you love. It seems like Christmas sneaks upon us every year and our bank accounts can never keep up with the struggle. If you love to shop (like me), you basically use any excuse to bring out your debit card. *wink, wink*


Not only that, but most of us are on a tight budget...but we don't let that spoil our holiday fun! Not only do we strive to get great holiday gifts, but we want them to be thoughtful but as the same time being wallet-friendly. Here are the top 5 websites to get cheap yet thoughtful gifts for your friends, family, roommates and co-workers.


1. Wish.com

I love this website because you can get clothes, cell phone cases, jewelry, shoes and whatever you want at super low prices! I bought a dress here for $3...thats unreal!!! However, be aware of the quality of some of the clothing items, some are great deals but be on the lookout for cheap fabrics and bad quality clothes.


2. T-Mart

I love this website because you can get great fun gifts for under $5 (most of the time). However, shipping from this website is super slow, so if you do decide to shop from this website...make sure you do it ahead of time or the holidays! Free shipping...need I say more?

3. Chloe + Isabel


The prettiest jewelry I've ever seen and you can easily find some cute stuff for $25 and under.


4. $10 Mall

Discount clothing for men and women for $10 or less. (Commence heavy breathing).


5. Boohoo

They have a sale right now...50% off EVERYTHING plus you can get student discounts!


I bet you didn't hear of most of these websites right? Of course, Amazon and Ebay are also great websites to snag deals from but most of the time they don't offer free shipping, student discounts or good gift options under $10.

Wherever you decide to shop from, it's always a good idea to get all of your shopping done in November so you can avoid the stress and high price markups due to the high demand of the holiday season.


Now remember, always be on the lookout for scams and bad quality items when looking on super-cheap websites. These websites I have personally shopped from and I can say with confidence that they have great deals! However, there are some super shady websites out there that look out to scam people or pawn off their bad quality items. If a deal looks too good to be true...sometimes it is.

Remember be aware, shop smart and happy holidays!

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
