I have been meaning to give it a try, but somehow Christmas always sneaks up on me and when you are in the Christmas season already it is hard to find Christmas books at a reasonable (okay, maybe frugal) price. So last year I wrote it down during Christmas so that after Christmas I could keep my eyes peeled for possibly some on clearance deals. Well, I found a couple, but I really wanted more than a 2 day countdown, ha!
While shopping rummages in the past few weeks it dawned on me.....why do they have to be new when "new to us" would do just fine!

I have found an abundance of Christmas books at rummage sales and offered for as little as a quarter! I have since picked up 12 books paying a total of $5! The picture above shows the start of my collection; hard cover, soft cover, big, little, you name it. They are all clean and in nice shape and carefully hidden away awaiting their debut! I cannot wait to wrap them up for my kids. They are going to LOVE this!
So, if you have ever considered a Christmas book collection countdown to Christmas it is not too late to do it on the frugal. Team up with a friend and keep double the eyes open for those awesomely priced Christmas books!
Note: Thrift stores may be another exciting option.
