Look No Further, Best Buy has the Best Deals for Grads!
It's that time of year! Everyone has a grad to shop for, but some are definitely easier to shop for than others! I've found that one of the best places to shop for grads is Best Buy! Whether you have a young grad, ready to set out on the world or a more experienced grad who may be graduating with a higher degree, you'll find something suitable for your grad!
If your grad is a Networker, like myself, they'll want a gift that will help them stay connected with their friends and family. I personally love the Lenovo Yoga 2 13" Touch-Screen Laptop and the Seagate Backup Plus Slim 1TB External USB Portable Hard Drive because every new techy grad deserves a new laptop and plenty of storage that they can take anywhere! Then again, you may have a graduate who loves fitness! If you do, I highly recommend the Fitbit Flex Wireless Activity and Sleep Tracker Wristband- I have one myself and I love using it to keep track of my activity and to inspire myself to keep moving!! If they're a crazier sort of active, perhaps they'll enjoy the GoPro HERO3+ Black Edition Action Camcorder, which they can attach to a helmet, bike or another crazy place and record all of their crazy fitness ventures! Don't forget about your new grad- someone who has maybe lived in the dorms or with mom and dad for their college career. They're going to need new home furnishings- which you can find at Best Buy too!!! For them, I recommend the 4 Slice Toaster Oven- it provides all in one simple cooking and they can enjoy it for years to come!
Of course, maybe you're not looking for a big ticket gift for your grad, or perhaps you have a lot of grads to shop for! In this case you'll want to see what Best Buy has to offer for under $50! Gifts like the Roku Streaming HDMI Stick, Mr. Cofee 12-Cup Coffeemaker, or the BISSELL Cordless 2-in-1 Handheld/Stick Vacuum are great simple gifts for any grad!! To find even more great gifts for grads, visit Best Buy's Gift Center!!!
Best Buy is even offering a special deal to those shopping for grads! Purchase a Sony QX10 Camera in black or white and recieve a free case!! Get that deal here! Simply print the coupon and take to any Best Buy Store to redeem, or use the provided code online!
7 Months to Christmas! Goals for June!
May was a busy month for me- a lot of progress was made, but not a lot of finishing was done. I'm hoping this month will be good for some finishing!!! I've been updating my lists as I go along, and you can see that I have one person completely done and almost one thing done for every person who is getting multiple items. Some items changed- based on other things that I tried or worked out.
Check out my updated list:

Extra big and Long Blanket- Sampler
Pillow- need back and seaming
Designs to do:
Completed:
All snowflakes for misc people
dw crochet hook
hp crochet hook
crochet hook with grip
Creeper hat
12/24 or 30 squares for Big and Long Blanket
1/10 Hotpads
Pillow Front
As you can see, I've completed a few things that make me happy- particularly the squares for the big and long blanket. They're working up really nicely and I'm working out many kinks as I go. In fact, I'll probably host a Mystery CAL after the holidays with this as the pattern! I've got 10 different squares I've designed, and am using 10 different colors throughout (kind of an experiment in using up some leftover yarn in semi coordinating patterns)
I've pretty much set everything that everyone is getting, and am now focusing on making big progress on wiping out some of the easier projects this month so I can cross some more people off my lists! I will be doing a lot of traveling this month and was thinking that hotpads would make great car projects!! Plus, cotton is easy to fit into bags and they're light and small for the summer heat.
This month, make sure your list is finalized, and try and finish a person or two to make the rest of your year easier! Let me know how you're doing in the comments below!
