First off, I want to remind you about Walmart’s price matching guarantee.

“Our match program is a great way for mom to save money and time,” explained Fleming. “She has the comfort of knowing she doesn’t have to run from store to store looking for the lowest price; we can deliver the best price to her no matter what – we won’t be beat.”

So check all the ads and make your list and get everything in one place. I won’t be going out into the weekend after Christmas, so have fun being part of the madness without me.
