Bachelorette Parties - Low
Cost Gift Ideas and Tips
In this economy it is understandable that
bachelorette parties are cutting back and making
sure to have enough money to plan an awesome last
night out that doesn't break the bank. Let's face
it, you have to plan a bachelorette party, bridal
shower, get your
bridesmaid dresses and get a wedding gift.
Bachelorette parties 101 is here to help by giving
you ideas to save on low cost bachelorette gift
ideas that are still fun and memorable. Below we
have listed the bachelorette savings:
1) Purchase gifts online and on time
You would not
believe how many divas wait until the last minute to
plan their bachelorette parties! The last thing you
need to be is crazy at the last minute, scrambling
to figure out what can be done as you don't want to
let down the bride-to-be. The key is planning early
for bachelorette parties. Even when you purchase
bachelorette gifts, give yourself at least 2 weeks
out so you can get everything and not rush at the
last minute in panic. Last minute rushes cost you
more as you need to then place a 1-day, 2-day or
3-day rush through UPS. It is still cheaper to get
your bachelorette party supplies online than in a
store as discussed below.
 2)
Find a bachelorette site offering bachelorette gifts
at low prices without the discount gimmicks
There
are many bachelorette party sites that trick
bachelorettes by stating they offer 20% or even 40%
off of items when they are still more expensive than
sites just offering low prices to begin with.
3) Bachelorette sites having all bachelorette
supplies in stock
Make sure to order from a
bachelorette supply site offering everything on
their site. It is dishonest for some of these sites
to actually have you order and then wait till the
last moment to let you know they are not getting the
item in. Again, bachelorettepartyfun.com always
carrys everything they show online.
4) Bachelorette Sites Offering Immediate Shipping
Make sure you find a bachelorette site that offers
same day out shipping so you know you will get your
bachelorette supplies on time. Some bachelorette
supply sites don't really state they ship same day
or don't provide a phone number or email. When you
do call, you get an answering machine with no one
calling you back.
5) Bachelorette gift items under $3.99
There are
many bachelorette party items you can get at amazing
prices due to the economy. BachelorettePartyFun.com
has a section they call "under $3.99" and they list
all their cheap but fun
bachelorette party supplies. With real
inexpensive bachelorette party gifts, you can
purchase more and get fun items for all of the
bachelorettes goodie bags.
6) Bachelorette party games multi-uses
Certain
bachelorette party games like Pin the Macho on the
Man are great to play and are also a
bachelorette party decoration for the wall. We
also enjoy the Pick Up Dicks (like pickup sticks)
since you can play the game and then use the willie
sticks as table decorations or drink stirrers.
7) Free Shipping and No Sales Tax
By ordering your
bachelorette party supplies online, you can save
yourself in shipping and sales tax costs which is
why it is better to order online. Create a budget
and then go online to see the bachelorette party
gifts available.
8) Create some of your own bachelorette party gifts
Throw a bachelorette gift party prior to the
bachelorette party and create some cute
photo-albums, scented candle sets or even a
"Suck for a buck" t-shirt. Have all the girls
work together to make some special items for the
bride-to-be. Decorate a tiara, add bling to a
t-shirt stating "Bride-To-Be" and have fun at the
pre-party. A great way to get to know the
bridesmaids.
9) Plan ahead
The earlier you start to plan, the
better. Call some other bachelorettes and figure out
what types of bachelorette items you want to order.
Have everyone go on the same
bachelorette site and choose items together, yet
still planning in general what you want to get. It
is very similar going into a supermarket when you
are hungry or have no list - you always end up
purchasing more than needed.
10) Bachelorette recyclables
If you know you are
going to attend multiple bachelorette parties over
the season, make sure to keep those items that will
last and appoint someone to store them until the
next party. Great long lasting items include the
bachelorette superball,
bachelorette party tray,
stud playing cards and
sparkle tiara. All of these items will keep well
and will save money over the bachelorette season.
We hope this bachelorette party gift saving section

will post your ideas to help other bachelorettes as
they plan their parties! |
