0:00.0	My goal today is to give you a ton of inspiration and ideas for gifts this holiday season
0:05.0	and then walk you through a handful of ways I get anywhere from 5 to 25% off almost all my online
0:12.0	shopping. I'm Chris Hutchins. I'm a researcher and optimizer. And today I'm sharing my 2025 gift guide,
0:18.5	which includes over 80 different gift ideas over a bunch of different
0:22.7	categories from tech to kitchen, clothes, home, health, games, kids, and learning.
0:28.7	And after running through all those gifts, I'm going to walk through how I use gift cards,
0:32.3	shopping portals, price tracking, coupon codes, card linked offers, and more to make sure I always get the best deal.
0:39.8	I'm going to close out by sharing a few of our family traditions for the holidays, and if you
0:43.6	want to jump around, you'll find timestamps in the show notes to make it easier. Also,
0:47.9	please note that none of the items in this gift guide have paid me to be a part of this list.

1:01.4	brands that I reached out to after loving their products. So it only makes sense that they're
1:05.9	sponsors. And while I often read out the URLs for all the different products and services I mentioned on
1:11.2	the show, there's just way too many to do that today. I might call out a few links with discounts,
1:16.1	but I'm going to focus my energy on talking about the products and all the different gift ideas
1:21.1	and then putting the links to every single one of them, including any discounts at all the hacks.com
1:27.3	slash gifts. I'll also put that link in the show
1:29.9	notes. And since a handful of these links are from sponsors or are my Amazon affiliate links,
1:35.5	I would obviously greatly appreciate if you want to use them to support me and the show.
1:40.8	That is, unless you find a better deal somewhere else, in which case, absolutely go there instead.
1:46.3	If you enjoy this episode, please share with a friend or leave a comment or review. And if you want to
