Win an Xbox One and a $20 Walgreens Gift Card {US Ends 12/31} #ad #selfishxmas

December 18, 2013 by Dawn McAlexander

Have yourself a selfish little Christmas with Axe #selfishxmas #sponsored

Cheap Is The New Classy

Christmas is the time of giving and I love shopping for my family. But, you know what? It’s also time to think about what I want for Christmas. Just like Toby Keith said, “I wanna talk about me, me, me, me, me.” Let me share with you some tips to having yourself a selfish little Christmas. 😉

Have Yourself A Selfish Christmas

If I were to have a totally selfish Christmas, I know that one of the TOP things on my list would be Axe for the hubs. If you are looking for a scent to try, check out Kilo. Oh man, that smells yummy. 🙂 You can make your man smell great this holiday season with awesome Axe stocking stuffers while earning rewards for yourself. I would also love to have an entire day off just for me, a nice book, some comfy slipper socks and a nice mug of hot cocoa {not the cheap stuff in packs}. And having the hubby smell nice is a big bonus!

Mark your calendars! If you want expert hair care advice and grooming tips this holiday season, celebrate with the AXE® Saturdate® at your local Walgreens on Saturday, December 21. Visit from 10am–5pm and Beauty Advisors will be on hand for exclusive product samples and coupons. And, for even more ways to celebrate, you can come in and buy 1, get 1 50% off of participating AXE® products for the week leading up to Saturdate®, 12/15–12/21.

    What I want and cannot have is my children and grandchildren to all be together. We are all in different states so it just cannot happen. I will be having Christmas however with my sisters and nephews

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      December 18, 2013 at 4:23 pm

      Distance can definitely make it hard during the holidays. I wonder if you all could at least all get on a chat on the internet or on Skype or something at the same time?

      • Sandra VanHoey says

        December 18, 2013 at 6:23 pm

        Great idea Dawn and I believe my sister has skype on this computer. Thanks for mentioning this, we’ll have to do it.

        • Dawn McAlexander says

          December 19, 2013 at 12:07 am

          Good luck! I haven’t used Skype much so I don’t know much about it, but I hope it does help. 🙂

    I want the Garth Brooks collection (also how I already had a selfish Christmas) and candles. I went back and forth about spending the money for the collection and finally decided that my family could get it for me for my Christmas. I, of course, went and got it, but my daughter said that was ok.

    I would like a new camera for Christmas and I plan to have a somewhat selfish Christmas, because I refused to make a big Christmas dinner this year. We are having cold cuts and crudites platters.

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      December 18, 2013 at 4:22 pm

      A veggie platter is a nice option I think. Sounds good. 🙂

    What I am hoping is not materialistic so all I can say is that I wish our (hubby and I) three wishes come true this holiday.

    I am having a selfish christmas by splurging on myself at whole food.

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      December 18, 2013 at 4:19 pm

      Mmm, we like Whole Foods. That sounds yummy. 🙂

    I want a Keurig and I’m going on vacation!

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      December 18, 2013 at 4:18 pm

      I have a Keurig and trust me, you need one. 😉

    i want an iPad 4 or Air, but will not in a million years get one, so I will settle for a handbag 🙂

    December 18, 2013 at 2:26 pm

    I wish a Kindle for myself. Plan to be selfish by hiding a large box of dark chocolate truffles only for myself in the kitchen.

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      December 18, 2013 at 4:19 pm

      Hope no one who goes in your house reads this blog or they might find your stash!

    a brand new laptop would be awesome.

  9. Jessica Lee says

    December 18, 2013 at 3:45 pm

    I really want an ipad and and xbox one! I actually took some of my finace’s Christmas bonus money to buy myself some things 🙂 He wasn’t too happy

  10. Debbie Denny says

    December 18, 2013 at 3:52 pm

  11. jennifer wexler says

    December 18, 2013 at 4:09 pm

  13. Gianna says

    December 18, 2013 at 6:15 pm

    I’d love a mac, but I don’t see it happening 😉

  14. Chrishelle @ Cheer MamaDrama says

    December 18, 2013 at 6:40 pm

    My selfish list includes an ipad, beach trip, and a kitchenaide. Although I would give it all away for a week of my teens being nice to each other.

  15. Jennifer B says

    December 18, 2013 at 6:56 pm

    My selfish Christmas would be a trip all by myself to a tropical destination!

  16. Alicia Taylor says

    December 18, 2013 at 7:23 pm

    I don’t really want anything for Christmas – except to go visit family in Florida. We rarely get to see them and I am homesick.

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      December 19, 2013 at 12:06 am

      Oh I am so sorry. I hope that you get to see them again really soon.

  19. Trisha D. says

    December 18, 2013 at 7:40 pm

    Love Axe Body spray, if we had some lying around I’d totally spray random pillows for a happy napping surprise!

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      December 19, 2013 at 12:06 am

      That is a really great idea! I might steal that one. 😉

  20. Taralyn says

    A full nights sleep is always at the top of my Christmas list.

    If I had my wish for a Selfish Christmas I would go to Mexico!

  23. Shanna says

    December 18, 2013 at 8:53 pm

    This would make a great stocking stuffer for my hubby and a gift for my stinky brother. (Sorry, even though we’re both in our 30s, he’ll always be my stinky brother!)

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      December 19, 2013 at 12:04 am

      Hahahaha! Maybe if you give him enough Axe, he won’t have to be the stinky brother anymore. 😀

  24. Giveaways 4 Mom says

    December 18, 2013 at 9:18 pm

    December 18, 2013 at 11:21 pm

    You’re actually going to make me go to the store to smell this and see if I want my man to be wearing it. Doggone you! 😉

  29. Natalie @ A Turtle's Life for Me says

    My son loves Axe. This is a great gift idea for him.

  32. Wendy @ ABCs and Garden Peas says

    December 19, 2013 at 2:06 am

    The only thing I want for Christmas is more time. Really.

    …and now that I’m looking down, I could use new socks.

  33. Malia says

    December 19, 2013 at 2:23 am

    These axe products would make great stocking stuffers for my husband.

  34. Cynthia L says

    December 19, 2013 at 8:29 am

    My family would go crazy if we one and Xbox One! Walgreens always amazes me with what they carry.

  35. Debi says

    December 19, 2013 at 10:05 am

    I have been checking out the Xbox one. WE have been drooling over it. My son is all about the Axe

  42. Shannah @ Just Us Four says

    December 20, 2013 at 7:11 am

    A Walgreens gift card would be great but winning an XBox 1 would be incredible.

    For Christmas I want some vouchers for car washes. Massachusetts winters are nasty on the car.

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      December 22, 2013 at 5:10 pm

      I am so bad about not washing my car as much as I need to in the winter. I live a lot further south than Massachusetts though. 😉

  48. kortney Picker says

    December 22, 2013 at 11:34 am

    I would like a new phone, but I know it is not in our budget this year! I don’t think I will have a selfish little Christmas this year because all the Christmas money we get will go toward renovating our house!

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      December 22, 2013 at 5:08 pm

      Oooh, house renovations can be really nice, though!

  53. Jessica Cox says

    December 26, 2013 at 4:13 pm

    I wanted a soda stream and I made sure my husband knew

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      December 27, 2013 at 12:42 am

      SO, did you end up getting a Sodastream?

  54. Lesley M says

    December 26, 2013 at 8:40 pm

    I want a new pair of shoes!

  55. Kelly Nicholson says

    December 26, 2013 at 8:59 pm

    What do YOU want for Christmas AND how do you plan to have yourself a selfish little Christmas? :

    i just love the music..not so much the gifts

  56. Lisa H. says

    December 26, 2013 at 11:25 pm

    All I really want is a new stroller since mine broke the other week. Not sure how I plan to be selfish…guess I’ll probably keep a bag of M&M’s all to myself.

  57. Susan Broughton says

    December 27, 2013 at 4:28 am

    I would love to have gotten an I-Pad or a new laptop computer. But I know that isn’t possible right now. But I did have a wonderful Christmas.

  58. cheryl s says

    December 27, 2013 at 11:16 am

    we had a wonderful Christmas spent with family. Got what I wanted for gifts and some surprises as well

  59. Lisa L says

    December 27, 2013 at 8:22 pm

    It was a good Christmas. Talked on the phone to faraway relatives.

  60. Jessica Lodge says

    December 28, 2013 at 10:18 am

    I really would like a Nespresso machine for Christmas. Even though it’s not practical or affordable I still really want one. I think the most selfish that I get for Christmas is splurging on eggnog lattes.

  61. David Smith says

    December 28, 2013 at 10:52 am

    What I want for Christmas is a set of woodturning chisels and gouges for my new wood lathe. I didn’t get them, but I got 2 new coats (really needed them), new slippers (also needed), new sweatpants (again, needed), new portable project bench with adjustable clamps (not needed, but really useful) and a stocking full of candy and treats. The best part of Christmas though, was watching my 13 year-old son and my fiance open their presents. I’ll get the chisels later on next year.

  62. Wendy Mastin says

    December 28, 2013 at 8:31 pm

    I just wanted my children and grandchild to travel safely to and back from our house for Christmas and they did. We had a great time being all together.

  63. Bo says

    December 29, 2013 at 4:31 am

    What I wanted for Christmas was a new food processor. I had a selfish Christmas by taking a lot of alone time to decompress and relax!

  64. Velvet Hubler says

    December 29, 2013 at 8:56 am

    I wanted to see my family for Christmas but due to financial difficulties we could not get together this year

  65. denise says

    December 29, 2013 at 10:33 am

    I wanted money for Christmas and got it. I went to casino for my selfish lol.

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      December 30, 2013 at 2:34 pm

      Haha! Love it! So, did you win any cash?

      • denise says

        December 30, 2013 at 6:04 pm

        Nah, I never win at the casino. I consider it a donation to the Native Americans. LOL

        • Dawn McAlexander says

          January 1, 2014 at 9:13 am

          Well, at least you have a good outlook on not winning. Can you believe I have never been to a casino? I would be scared that I would lose a bunch of cash and ruin my trip, lol.

  66. Jessica Fortner says

    December 29, 2013 at 12:09 pm

    I want a juicer this yr and I plan on saving a bit out of each check til I get one. 🙂

  67. Denise C says

    December 30, 2013 at 10:28 am

    December 31, 2013 at 12:39 am

    How my Christmas May be a bit selfish…spending some quiet time by myself and maybe purchasing a fun app for my favorite mobile device that doesn’t include cartoon characters

  70. Seyma Shabbir says

    December 31, 2013 at 12:52 am

    I had a great time with family on Christmas… If I could have gotten something selfish.. an ipad!

  71. Jennifer P - Vicki Vix on Rafflecopter says

    December 31, 2013 at 7:54 am

    I really wanted to get out of town and away from home for a few days for Christmas. Since I couldn’t manage that, I’ve arranged to go cat sit for a friend for a week. At least it’s a different part of town and I’ll be away from home.

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      January 1, 2014 at 9:10 am

      Sometimes a change in scenery is all you need. 🙂

  72. Judy Gregory says

    December 31, 2013 at 2:25 pm

    Well,,,,, it’s after Christmas but, I stocked up marked down treats. Chocolate for a year anyone????

    • Dawn McAlexander says

      January 1, 2014 at 9:06 am

      Nice thinking! That definitely sounds like a good plan. 🙂

  73. Amanda Sakovitz says

    December 31, 2013 at 3:18 pm

    i wanted riding boots. i didnt get anything for myself this year for a christmas gift maybe next year.

  74. lisa says

    December 31, 2013 at 5:23 pm

    It’s just the two of us. We didn’t do anything. The kids are gone and really have nothing to do with us (me) It stinks but, you can only try so much before you give up on hearing from them.

  75. Thomas Murphy says

    December 31, 2013 at 8:14 pm

    I want an ipad. If I don’t get one I will go buy one myself.

  76. laurie says

    December 31, 2013 at 9:15 pm

    I want a new dishwasher and i’ll probably have to buy it for myself

  77. Brandi Price says

    December 31, 2013 at 10:09 pm

    I got everything I wanted. I always buy myself a LITTLE something anyways! 🙂
