Ok, if you are missing my weekly #dealchat on twitter, why is that? I’m not the kind of girl who likes to be alone! We have so much fun sharing ideas on the best techniques and deals around town. It’s even getting noticed. Journalist Chris Nelson who blogs on a Baltimore Sun site wrote a post on #dealchat.

Here are Chris’ beautiful words about #dealchat:
The group discusses ways to save money on travel, entertainment, fashion, food and other goods and services. The first chat took place Feb. 17, and lasted 30 minutes, but that wasn’t enough time for people to share their ways to save money. McNeal says the chats were then extended to an hour. She’s already received feedback from people who have scored discounts on Broadway tickets, learned how to get deals on fashionable duds and, through the help of a travel agent, learned ways to get great deals the next time they travel.

I swear, someone give that guy a raise! Anyway…
The #dealchat last night on gift giving was fabulous. Here is the link to the transcript! Also inspired by the #dealchat fabulous blogger Converting a Spendthrift did a post on affordable gift buying.
