Budget Christmas Shopping in Lafayette, Indiana

Lafayette, Indiana is a great place to go if you're looking to do a little holiday budget Christmas shopping. But when Christmas shopping in Lafayette, it may be all too tempting to gravitate towards the mall where you can find a number of stores all in one place. With Barnes and Noble and Best Buy right next door, it makes it even harder to resist. But one-stop shopping may not necessarily mean a better deal. Sure, you may save some gas, but it can be even more worthwhile to look elsewhere to find some great deals for Christmas shopping on a budget.

Family Dollar and Dollar General (1400 Teal Rd and 2432 Teal Rd, respectively) - These two great stores are ideal for budget Christmas shopping for babies and young children. They have a large selection of toys at low prices. You can also find some great deals on stocking stuffers. Shopping here will allow you to really stuff those stocking full at a fraction of the cost.

Gordmans (100 South Creasy Lane) - At Gordmans, you'll find something for everyone on your shopping list. I absolutely love this store. There is so much to choose from like name brands at deeply discounted prices. If you're looking for clothing, footwear, household items, decorations, or toys, you'll find it at Gordmans.

Plato's Closet (3540 State Rd 38) - For the tween or teen in your life, Plato's Closet is a must see for clothing and accessories. Plato's Closet is chock full of name-brand, gently-used clothing like Abercrombie, Aeropostale, Gap and Lucky Brand at low prices.

Kohl's (2415 Sagamore Pkwy South) - If you have to go to the mall anyway, be sure to stop in at Kohl's. They usually have great sales, especially early sales the day after Thanksgiving.
