You know I can’t resist a shoe deal. It’s an illness, I know. But if it’s wrong, I don’t want to be right. Just looking at shoes makes me happy. Okay, now I’m starting to disturb myself. Moving on.
Anyway! The winter clearance sale is on at Shoebuy. Save up to 65% on shoes you want anyway. Because you do want them. I can tell.
(Did this entry make anyone else picture me standing on a street corner in a trench coat, opening it up to passersby to reveal peep-toes and slingbacks hanging within? “Psssst! Ya wanna buy some platform pumps?”)

Hey, has anyone here ever heard of Restaurant.com…?
Ouch! Stop throwing things.
Through January 24th, 2008, use coupon code CHOICES to take 50%, netting you $25 in dining out for just $5. I know that many of you have already availed yourselves of the gazillion other times there have been coupon codes to try this out, but if you haven’t yet, why not? I get an average of two emails a week from a Restaurant.com “virgin” who finally tried it and wondered why they waited so long. No fuss, no catch, just big savings on restaurants.

I love free samples of shampoo and conditioner. I use them when I travel, and it means I don’t have to wrangle big containers. We all know my life is complex enough without that. (Yes, it is difficult, being me.)
Anyway, if you want to try out the latest L’Oreal Vive hair stuff, go here and fill out the form.
And if you don’t want to try it out, consider filling it out, anyway. Most shelters happily accept donations of travel-sized toiletries.

(I feel like I’m posting about Kohls only slightly less than I do about those restaurant certificates. Sorry. But… the deals! Won’t someone please think of the deals!)
Yeah. So. Anyway! Kohls just did another round of markdowns, and everything ships for just $.99 apiece (good when you’re buying big stuff, totally annoying if you wanted to buy socks or whatever), and everyone can use coupon code NEW7523 for an additional 10% off and Kohls cardholders can use coupon code MVCSAVE15 for an additional 15% off.
I love Kohls. I love the clothes, that is. The stores makes me break out into hives. Which is why I love ordering whatever I need in several sizes, trying it on here at home, and then returning the extras to the store. It totally eliminates the part where I have to think about why the door handle in the dressing room is sticky.

(I have the Trix bunny stuck in my head now….)
Did you know that Clif—the folks who make Clif Bars, of course—make treats for kids, too? They do!
This was news to me. Anyway, this is notable because Amazon is still running their health bar special through the end of the month; buy $39 worth, and take $10 off your total with coupon code JANBARS8. I wasn’t looking at this for me, earlier, but now I’m considering a couple of boxes of these for the kids.
Absolutely, homemade is better. But under $.46 for a serving of what they think is a cookie and you know is packed with nutrients? Tempting.

I know, I just posted about Macy’s a couple of days ago, but for two days only they’re taking an additional 40% off of the fashion clearance, which—near as I can tell—means “decent prices on fancy duds.”
The translation service is just another benefit I offer.

Here’s another one-day-only goody: Today only, all denim is 40% off at Catherines
. (Catherines carries women’s fashions in sizes 16W - 34W, if you’re unfamiliar.)
Sweeten the deal with one of these coupons:
776874307 — 20% off any size order
776874406 — $20 off $75+
776874505 — free shipping on $70+
(Coupons are not stackable, so play around to see which one gives you the best deal. All codes expire February 3rd, 2008.)
And if you’re not in the market for jeans, it look like their clearance section is pretty extensive, too. Cute stuff, there!

Happy Martin Luther King Day, everyone! I hope you’re doing something wonderful today to honor a great man—maybe you’re even participating in a day of service.
But should you wish to celebrate with some deals, I can help with that.
Today (January 21st, 2008) only, take 33% off any one item at Family Christian with coupon code 1179868. There are some exclusions, like you can’t use it on Demdaco or Willow Tree items, or VBS curricula, or electronics, but it may work on something you want.
And I know it seems like Christmas just ended (it did!), but they have a boatload of Valentine’s Day stuff….

Many thanks to everyone who participated in the Neopets contest, as well as a huge thank-you to Special Ops Media for providing the prizes!
I just love giving stuff away. Especially when it’s stuff that my kids see sitting on my desk and say “OHMYGOSHISTHATFORUSISITISITHUH?” and I get to say, “No, that’s for Want Not,” and then their little faces just look so dejected. (Right up until I distract them with something shiny or let them pull the winner out of a hat, or something.) (I’m mean, but I’m not cruel.)
Anyway! This time it was lucky number 17; pretty commenter Stacey is the winner of the Neopets game and Neocash card.
If you didn’t win this time, fret not! More contests are coming up, pinky swear.

Looking for a printer? This one may be the deal you need.
The Epson CX7400 printer is currently $69.99 with free shipping at Amazon. It prints, scans, faxes, and makes you breakfast if you’re very nice to it. The price isn’t all that thrilling, true… but if you also buy a digital camera along with it—say, this junky little one for $14.99—you’re then eligible for a $70 rebate from Epson. (By the way, that camera also comes with a code for a free Shutterfly photo book, which is worth twice what you’re paying for the camera. Just sayin’.)
You’re welcome to buy a more expensive camera, by the way. You know me, I just head for the cheap stuff.
