Christmas Shopping Made Easy With CurrentC This post may contain affiliate links.

Thank you CurrentC for sponsoring this post and for facilitating my fun shopping day.  As always, all enthusiasm is my own.  

I really love the ugly Christmas sweater trend because it's so much fun.  I held off buying one, but this year I was invited to a party where one was required.  Of course, I had to oblige in the spirit of having fun.  Besides, it was a great excuse to go shopping.   I was headed to Columbus to go shopping, so I stopped at Sear's to get a new outfit for the party.

When it comes to keeping a calendar, I'm meticulously organized.  When it comes to making sure I have everything with me, well, that's where I have a problem.  I am constantly losing the key ring with my store cards.  Gift cards?  They could be anywhere in my purse, in my car, or on my desk at home.  I always have my iPhone on me, so I love the CurrentC app.  I can add my gift cards, store loyalty cards, and payment options to the app.  Friends,  I can not tell you how much stress this has saved.  I can not tell you how many times I got to the store only to realize that my gift card was at home.  (I posted about CurrentC and how it makes it so much easier to shop, so check that out and then come back to see my ugly sweater.)

I love shopping, but I love saving money even more.  CurrentC also has store coupons for extra savings, and it connects with your store cards for more deals.

When I got to Columbus, I had to get gas.  I can use CurrentC at Shell, so I pulled in there.  Now you ladies from warmer climates might not appreciate this, but my northern readers will.  I was able to sit in my car and use the app to authorize my debit card for my gas before I even go out of the car.  If I can stay in my warm car for one more minute in the winter, I am a happy girl.  

Then I headed to Sear's to look for an ugly sweater.  I know it's called an ugly sweater, but I was looking more for a fun sweater than an ugly sweater.  As soon as I saw this one, I knew I had to make it mine.

I already had black pants to wear with it, but I needed some new shoes.  The party is at a friend's house, so I decided slippers would be perfect since she has a no shoe rule.  

Paying at Sear's with CurrentC is easy.  Just open the app, select SHOP, then click SCAN.  Use your phone's camera to scan the Paycode on the register to pay.  How easy is that?

CurrentC is currently only available in Columbus, Ohio, but it's coming to other cities soon!  Keep an eye out for it because you definitely don't want to miss the convenience and savings.
