When it comes to party planning, I go all out. That’s my thing. That’s how I was raised. My mom threw over the top parties for us as kids, and I am proud to do the same for my girls. But even though the party planning is a year-long event and includes hours of prep work on DIY projects, the party budget is tight. My rule of thumb for party supplies, NPR – never pay retail.
Next month, I will be throwing K’s 4th birthday. The theme, a tea party. Specifically, an Alice in Wonderland tea party. Tea parties have been K’s favorite past time since she was about 18 months old and she adores Alice, so this theme is long over due. To deck out my perfect party, I turned to DiscountPartySupplies.com, where I was pleased to find prices below retail even without a coupon code. (I love shopping online.)
When searching Discount Party Supplies, I found supplies that would have been perfect for each of K’s prior parties as well – Pink/Brown Cup Cakes, Minnie Mouse and Princess. Don’t worry moms of boys, there are plenty of boy themes too. In fact, there are pages and pages of both boy and girl party themes. If you aren’t into themes, there are also solid colored options as well, even things for fancy adult soirees as well.
One of my favorite things about shopping Discount Party Supplies was the ease of shopping. It’s a simple touch, but if you shop like I do (putting tons of things in your cart to analyze later) it’s an important touch. While scrolling though pages and pages of ideas, you can add something to your cart without loosing your place on the page. I don’t know about you, but nothing irks me more than adding something to my shopping cart only to have to start my search all over again, find my place and resume. The shopping system on Discount Party Supplies removes that annoyance. And since party supply shopping usually involves purchasing multiple items, this is very handy.
