With the plethora of sample sales & daily deal sites out there, my inbox (and, by default, wallet) has been screaming for mercy. However, when I got wind a while ago about a new site about to launch - Eat. Shop. Give. - I was excited to see what they had in store and, true to form, they did NOT disappoint.

Remember that track, "Don't They Know It's Christmas." Well, as you well know, many people don't have the luxury to enjoy all the abundance we all have. We have health and family and friends.
