Can you believe it’s time to start thinking about Christmas already? There are so many things I love about the holiday season like baking cookies and decorating the Christmas tree. Gift giving is also a big part of the holiday season. With money being so tight for a lot of people, gift giving can be stressful. With my own limited budget this year, I want the dollars I spend to really count. That’s why I am so excited about Patchwork Road, the Meaningful Marketplace.
With so many places to shop for gifts, both online and off, it can be hard to know where to get started. I recently learned about Patchwork Road which is e-commerce’s first Meaningful Market place. What’s that you ask? Basically it means that when you shop online at Patchwork Road, from their selection of unique items at great prices, you’ll also be giving back. For each purchase you make, Patchwork Road will give at least 10% of your retail total to a charity of your choice. This is perfect for gift giving – you make someone happy by giving them a gift and you help somebody else in need. Are you ready to shop at Patchwork Road the Meaningful Marketplace this holiday season?

Looks like they have something for everyone and I love the giving back! I would want to provide a meal or toys for families in need.
The iPad case looks like it could be a huge help in our house. My kids back my iPad around constantly if I don’t stash it up high and I am always worried they are going to drop it.
