Discount Colognes, Yes Please…

Disclosure:  This is a sponsored post written by me that includes my own thoughts and opinions.

Okay so my brother just graduated high school and I have been drawing a blank at a graduation present for him.  I wanted to get him something he could use but didn’t want to do the same old cash or gift cards gift.  Those are my last resort gifts and honestly I always feel bad giving them as a gift.  I feel like I don’t know the person well enough to pick out a gift for them so I go the easy route with a gift card or cash.  Not that the person receiving the gift would complain but I just always like to do something personal.

One gift I hadn’t really thought about was cologne, but really cologne is a gift that is perfect for any man.  My brother being just 18 years old wouldn’t think to buy cologne for himself, but he probably wears it everyday.  I had bought cologne for my husband for Christmas last year and he loved it.  Cologne though is expensive.  The brand my husband wanted was way over $100 a bottle and it was not even a big bottle!  So what does a mom of three do, who can’t really afford expensive colognes?  I start looking for discount colognes!  I ended up getting the bottle for a fraction of a cost and yes it was the same brand one he wanted!  I thought I’d have to buy a generic brand one that smelled the same, but nope I got the name brand one for a price I could afford.

Now I’m off cologne shopping for my brother, hoping to find another good deal on one of the few brands I know he uses!
