We all want to celebrate the holiday season in a home that is clean, organized and looking festive. We look forward to our holiday parties and overnight house guests but not all the work involved in cleaning our house, cooking those delicious meals and shopping for gifts.
A little bit of planning and a couple of hacks or shortcuts can help you have a beautiful, decorated home and a stress-free holiday season.
Here is our top 5:
- To save time create holiday decor like table centerpieces and wreaths with a neutral base of greenery that can be enhanced with fall leaves and thanksgiving themed pieces and then be easily transformed with some holly or poinsettias for December. You can even begin this with Halloween.
- Keep a few wrapped gifts on hand that for those situations when someone visits with a gift for you and you hadn’t planned on giving them a gift. Most people will enjoy some special chocolates or biscotti, photo albums and scented handcreams are also great generic gifts.
- To reduce the stress of creating those family feasts for the holidays prepare some of the side-dishes and sauces ahead of time.
- Do you holiday shopping online and select the gift wrapping option. Don’t forget to look for coupons for online retailers which in many cases will offset the extra cost for shipping so you don’t end up paying more than you would if you went into the store. There are many sites like RetailMeNot.com that have hundreds of coupons.
- Don’t try and do all the cleaning yourself – visit us at BidMyCleaning.com and schedule a standard cleaning or a deep cleaning. To make it even easier we have a $20 coupon through November 26th, 2008. Just schedule a cleaning to a value of $100 or more. [Coupon Code - BLOGHOLS]
Bonus tip: Keep a sense of humor! You’ll probably need it!

It is hard to escape the bad news about the economy and everyone is starting to feel the pinch. It is becoming more important to shop around for the best deal! Comparison shopping sites are seeing increases in traffic and BidMyCleaning.com, as the first site to offer you comparison shopping for your cleaning services is one of them. Whether you are looking for maid service, window or carpet cleaning, we can provide you with instant bids from pre-screened service providers.
You can compare prices, learn more about the cleaners and read customer reviews and then schedule online immediately with the one you choose. In addition, for maid service you can often get a better deal by signing up for bi-weekly or monthly service. If you know you will probably have a maid or housekeeper come in regularly anyway then you can save by scheduling ahead of time. There are no contracts or commitments; you can cancel, reschedule or switch providers at any time.
With the holidays coming up, house guests may be arriving and you may want to give you’re a home a quick spruce up. It has never been easier to find a reliable cleaner and schedule a cleaning visit. In the past you would have had to look through the Yellow Pages or a classified site like Craigslist but then you would have had no way of vetting the cleaner. Directory and review sites like AngiesList and Yelp can help you with that process but you will still need to call or email each cleaning provider in order to get a bid/quote and then repeat the process to schedule an appointment with one of them. What used to typically take from one to several days can now be done in just a few minutes on BidMyCleaning.com – It’s so easy!
To help out a little, we are offering a 5% discount on any of our cleaning services; maid service, window cleaning or carpet cleaning. To get started just enter your zip code and we will show you bids from local cleaners.
Click here – http://www.BidMyCleaning.com and enter coupon code BLOGALOG at the checkout to receive your 5% discount.
Look forward to being of service to you!
