You’re all very pretty

Thanks for bearing with me, this week. You all look gorgeous today, and I love your shoes. Hopefully our regular programming will return in a few days, but I know things have been sporadic and appreciate that no one has complained.

A few deals before I go spend my day running around in the woods with my son’s class:

Amazon’s Gold Box Deal today is a deep discount on Popchips, one of our favorite lunchbox snacks! Combine the discounted price with Subscribe & Save to get the lowest price and free shipping.

The grab bags in the Outlet at Burt’s Bees are all the way down to just $15, now, and coupon code SPRING12 is working for $5 off $25 if you want to buy a couple of them. Shipping is $6. (Site is moving slowly, be patient.)

The 16-packs fo Hanger Buddiez over at Kids.Woot today is slaying me with the cuteness. That would be perfect as part of a baby shower gift. (I am partial to the Monster Pack, but they’re all adorable.)

Over at Tanga, they’ve got Everyday with Rachael Ray Magazine available for $24/year, but when I put it in my cart it dropped down to $4.99 and I’m not sure why. If it doesn’t automatically discount for you, try adding code EVERYDAY to get it at that price. And you can order up to 4 years at that price!

I see the Gap family of stores is back to different coupons for every store (all the better to confuse you, my dears!), but here you go: If you’re shopping Old Navy, use code ONTAKE15 today for 15% off everything; if you’re shopping Gap, use code GAPFUN for an additional 30% off sale items; at Banana Republic use code BRJANUARY for 25% off anything. (Got that? Me neither.)

Again, thanks for bearing with me lately. Y’all are super pretty.

Nook your books, for less

Been on the lookout for a great deal on a Nook Color? Buy.com has refurbs in stock for just $139.

Me, I’m perfectly happy with my black-and-white Kindle. But my youngest has a Nook and deeply appreciates being able to read his books or play Angry Birds. Heh.

Anti-vampire lighting

You know that the writing over at Woot always delights me, but today I am still chuckling over their description on Home.Woot for a 4-pack of darkness-sensing CFL bulbs.

I don’t know about the whole vampire thing, but if you wanted energy-efficient lights that automatically go on when it gets dark, this seems like a decent deal. And if you have vampires around, well, I’m guessing it’s an even better deal.

A few deals to keep you busy

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I’m going to be away from the computer for most of today, looks like. Here’s a few deals to keep you busy while I’m gone:

There’s goodness aplenty in today’s Target Daily Deals; whether you want a half-price Sonicare toothbrush or want to peruse the entire inventory of Home Sale items (pick one to get free shipping and an extra 10% off—this includes deeply discounted patio furniture), there’s a deal there for you today.

You know Wednesday means Kohls, and today you can use coupon code SMS7873 for an extra 20% off any order. Redeem your Kohls Cash, and enjoy free shipping on your $75+ order, automatically.

This one’s a little convoluted, but bear with me: If your kids love those Clif Kids fruit ropes, go take a look at this 18-pack of strawberry ropes, here. If you click on “12 new from $8.41″ in the right-hand column of More Buying Choices, you can scroll down and locate an offer of $8.41 from Amazon Warehouse, and that’s eligible for Prime or Super Saver Shipping, too. (It’s a great deal, so I suspect it’ll sell out quickly. Congrats to those of you who manage to nab it!)

There’s a huge outerwear blowout going on right now at Lands’ End, and you can use coupon code FREEZE and PIN 1710 for free shipping on any order.

I’ll get back here as soon as I can, but don’t you dare pay full retail for anything in the meantime.

Children’s Place will suck you back in

Listen, I am trying not to post deals from them every darn day, but lately they’ve just been extremely generous with the discounts, and what can I say—you know I’m a sucker for those good deals.

So. Today—Wednesday, January 25th—if you shop Children’s Place you’ll get a double bonus. First, all orders are shipping for free today (woo!), automatically. Second, today only you can use either coupon code T9F2012 or U9F2012 for an additional 25% off your order.

Really, at this point, all that’s left is for them to just give the clothes away.

If you’re a Clinique gal

Today Clinique is offering free shipping on every your $50+ order, no code necessary. (The offer changed, sorry for the confusion!) Don’t forget you can get free samples with every order, and right now they’re offering a free Mini Super City Block (SPF 40!) with any $30+ order when you use coupon code SUPER, too.

I’m not a Clinique user, myself, but I have friends who swear by their products. If you’re buying it anyway, may as well save yourself the shipping!

An offer you can’t refuse

Well, technically I guess you could refuse, but if you’re looking for a great deal on the Godfather movies, you’re not going to want to. Right now Amazon has the The Godfather Collection on Blu-ray available for just $35 shipped—its lowest price ever.

You get all three Godfather movies, plus a slew of bonus “featurettes.” Plus, you know, Brando, Pacino… these are classics. (Plus, if you have teenagers in your house, there’s nothing like a little Godfather action to remind you that things could be worse.)

Mix and match the zany

They’re having another “Zany Sale” over at LittleMissMatched, with prices slashed up to 70% off. Plus, you should take a look at all of the crazy offers they have running right now, too.

Like… they’re having a sweepstakes where you could win the first ever LittleMissMatched bicycle. Pretty cool, right? And then they have new dolls with tiny LMM clothing, too, and those are adorable.

Personally, though, I prefer this offer—which is 100% real: If you purchase 3,333 socks from them (at a cost of $15k), they’ll give you a free Fiat. That’s right, if you have a lot of feet to outfit, they’ll just throw in a polka-dotted car. I can’t stop laughing.

Time to Get Up And Dance

I think it’s time for a contest where you can work up a little sweat. (What? No! Sheesh! Minds out of the gutter, people.)

What’s better than trying to dance along with your favorite songs and looking like a complete dork? Dancing along with your favorite songs and looking like a complete dork while swinging a wiimote. Obviously. (I would also accept “dancing along with your favorite songs and looking like a complete dork in front of your teenager’s friends” for that one. Either way.)

I have in my possession three brand-spankin’-new copies of Get Up And Dance for the Wii, and it looks crazy fun. Play with up to four players at a time, and either just dance away or set it to Shape Up mode and get a serious workout. Please note that due to the lyrics contained in this game (artists include Katy Perry, Taio Cruz, and other hit pop stars), this title is rated T for Teen. (Read: please do not win it for your small children and then send me hate mail.)

Want to win one? Of course you do! First, go review the contest rules and regulations, then come on back here and leave a comment on this post by 8:00 a.m. Eastern (that’s 5:00 a.m. Pacific) on Thursday, January 26th, 2012 for an entry. I’ll use my handy-dandy random winners picky plugin to select three winners, and there shall be much rejoicing. And dancing.

Ready? Go!

Winner of the Annoying Orange contest

So last week I offered y’all the chance to win some Annoying Orange swag, and I must say I was surprised by how many of you were willing to throw your hats into the ring. I had the talking Little Apple here on my desk and one day last week while my daughter was trying to do her homework, I kept squeezing it so that it would talk; and while driving her insane was entertaining for a few minutes, I’m still very glad this is now moving on to a new home.

My number-picker-plugin-doohickey has selected commenter number 66 as our lucky winner—congratulations, Valerie! Please check your email!

As always, thanks to all who played, and special thanks to our friends at DKC News for hooking us up with the prizes.

Didn’t win this time? Don’t be sad! I have another contest coming right up….
