				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.toonaripost.com">The Toonari Post - News, Powered by the People!</a></p><p>Yonkers, U.S.A. &#8212; Holiday shoppers can find the perfect gift for almost everyone on their list for $25 or less. The December 2012 issue of ShopSmart, from Consumer Reports, highlights 25 great sites that offer everything from silly stocking stuffers to socially responsible gift items.</p>
<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s an endless selection of unique and inexpensive holiday gifts online,&#8221; said Lisa Lee Freeman, editor-in-chief of ShopSmart. &#8220;ShopSmart has identified 25 sites that can help shoppers avoid the aggravation of in-store shopping while nabbing great deals.&#8221;</p>
<p>The report also features nine great sites for presents under $50, five that offer do-good gifts, and six sites and apps that can help last-minute shoppers get gifts in an instant. Each of these sites meets ShopSmart&#8217;s requirements for privacy, contact info disclosure, and service, and while some don&#8217;t offer free shipping, the gifts themselves are a great value.</p>
