#58 The ultimate guide to "win" the holidays
It's never been easier to get (and gift!) what you actually want during the busiest shopping period of the year.
Last week, we introduced The Resale Registry—an easy way for sustainable fashion lovers to curate and share a list of pre-loved finds with friends and family.
The goal? To help those who’ve never heard of Poshmark or thought about holiday shopping on eBay to thrift one-of-a-kind gifts instead of buying more new things you don’t even really want or need.
But that’s just one of the ways we’re here to make the fun-but-hectic holiday season a little easier for you.
There’s also: finding gifts for everyone on your list (without breaking the bank)… snagging clever White Elephant picks that adhere to strict budgets… nabbing the best (read: ugliest) holiday sweaters… and, of course, looking fabulous at all the season’s festivities.
Resale tends to get overlooked this time of year, but it’s actually your secret weapon for tackling wish lists and parties—while saving money, time, and the planet.
Read on to discover all the ways Beni can help you win the holidays this year!
1. Get what you actually want
Spend less time sending a bunch of resale links back-and-forth. The Resale Registry makes it easy for you to save and share a wishlist of pre-loved gifts that you can update at any time!
2. Gift better (under budget!)
Score high-quality finds that don’t break the bank. The Beni browser extension shows you resale deals while you do your holiday shopping (perfect for that expensive designer bag your mom’s been wanting!).
3. Save more when it matters less
Don’t waste your time or money on an ugly holiday sweater or gag gift. The iOS app and checkbeni.com will help you find anything secondhand in seconds. In this case, it’s the lack of thought that counts.
4. Celebrate in style (without the splurge)
Save big on stylish finds for every holiday occasion. From winter weddings to office holiday parties to NYE bashes, Beni will help you roll into 2025 with some extra savings so you can treat yourself in the new year!
5. (Literally) Win up to $5000 in giveaways!
To celebrate the launch of the Resale Registry, we're giving you the chance to win gifts all season long. So, start building your Resale Registry asap and stay tuned on our Instagram for more information on how to enter!
If that gets you excited for the holidays, it’d be HUGELY helpful if you can share this post with friends via DM or on your story to help get the word out!
