If you follow me on Twitter, you might have already seen my post about this, but I said I’d share more in a blog post – so here we are!
One of the things that I love about the holiday season is giving gifts to people I love. It’s fun for me to research and find the “perfect” thing. Since this is a really busy time for people, I thought I’d offer to help out with your shopping.
What I Would Need:
- who are you giving to?
- do you want one gift, or multiple?
- what’s your price range?
- any and all information you want to give me about the recipient
- and of course, when you need the gift idea(s) by, but I’ll stay in touch!
I’m not charging any set price for helping out. If you can’t afford anything, but you would still love help, I’m here!
If you want to donate something, you can choose whatever amount works for you! I have a PayPal that will happily take donations.
Since it’s already November, time is ticking away, so definitely get in touch as soon as you can and I will get started with my research! I can’t promise you’ll love anything I find (obviously) but I’ll do my best, and I’m going to try and find the best deal online as well as any coupons/discounts that might be available.
If you’re interested, send me an email: lauren51990 AT aol DOT com
Just put “Holiday Personal Shopper” in the subject line and I’ll know to read it and get back to you ASAP!
If you have questions, feel free to leave a comment – or email those too!

What a great idea!! I am sure you could find some interesting gifts, interesting options to a standard Christmas gift. Hope you get lots of business!! XO
This is great
That’s such a great idea, you’ll have to let us know about your experience doing this!
Fun idea!
What a good idea! Hope you get lots of inquires and business! Such a creative way to help people out and make a little cash on the side!
Love that you’re doing this, Lauren. I go in spurts of being good at gift picking and coming up blank so I start early and keep a watch for gifts all year long.
Fun idea, but I love the shopping part! It’s the not having the money to spend what I want to spend that is my problem. I just need a sugar daddy I think. Lol.
Oh what a fantastic and oh so generous idea, just as well. <3 I'm always having such a hard time with the shopping and finding ideas part of it all haha π
What a fun and fantastic idea! I like shopping for others but sometimes I find it hard to choose something, so much pressure!
I love this idea. I could really use something like this with all of my home renovations going on.
It’s just a busy time of the year! Definitely let me know if you’d like help, Danielle!

What a fun idea! I’m sure you’ll be a fantastic holiday personal shopper. π
Good luck with this new endeavour of yours!
What a cool idea! I hope you have lots of success with it.
What a brilliant idea Lauren! Might be worth setting up a Kofi account too for international buyers, Paypal charge fees for international accounts now to transfer. I’ve almost finished my Christmas shopping thankfully, now it’s just the groceries and Christmas lunch I’ll need to buy closer to Christmas day.
Thanks for the tip on Kofi, Kelly! And that’s great you’re almost done shopping already – you’re on it!
What a lovely idea – I hope you get loads of responses. Not only will you save people loads of time, you’ll have fun as well. Good luck and I hope you’ll let us know how it goes.
Look at you go! I hope you get a lot of interested people.
This year Amazon is going to be my personal shopper. I think you would be more fun though π
What a creative way to earn a little extra cash, and definitely helpful! When I read the post title at first It thought you were actually purchasing the gifts for people, and I was like “Oh nooo, what if it doesn’t get to the recipient in time? What if they don’t pay?! Ahhh!” so just supplying the idea is much better imo lol! I’d love if you shared what you came up for people, like a personalized gift guide!
I think this is a great idea. I always told my husband that I would be good at this too. I find some pretty good things for people I just wait till the last minute. That’s why I want to start shopping now!
oh what a wonderful idea Lauren! I’ll have to come up with a list! Ty for doing this! I never know what to buy anyone LOL
Of course – I love doing it, and if it helps people out, I’m happy!
THIS RULES!! What a great idea! I’d love to see some examples of things you picked in a future post! π <3
I love this idea Lauren!
