Spare bed in a backpack

Been looking around for an Aerobed? How about one that comes in a handy backpack for just $38.79 shipped?

A camping mat would be smaller/easier if tenting is the main intended usage, but if you frequently host sleepovers or just want to have an extra bed around to use in a pinch, this is a pretty good deal.

Did someone say barbecue?

The July crop of Amazon grocery deals has arrived, and you know which one immediately caught my eye, right? Red Bone Alley spice rubs and aiolis. Mmmmmm mmm mmm.

They’re already marked down, and coupon code REDBONE2 will give you an additional 40% off. I say you pick a rub and pick a complimentary sauce, then place your order knowing that at less than $4 a pair, delivered, you’ll have some to use at home and the rest ready to go in gift bags to keep you in hostess gifts for the rest of the season. Score!

Discounted Mabels Labels

Regular Want Not reader Lee is an agent for Mabel’s Labels, and she wanted me to let folks know that right now she’s offering a 10% discount on orders.

If you haven’t tried Mabel’s Labels yet, what are you waiting for? I’m using them on the things my kids try the hardest to lose (backpacks, jackets, water bottles), and despite plenty of wear and tear those babies do not come off. I think they’re made with magic. And possibly superglue.

Savings by Leaps and Bounds

Good morning, and welcome to July. Those of you wondering where June went, please form a line to the rear… right behind me. Hmph.

Let’s start off the month with a bonus coupon on kiddie stuff. Right now you can use code KIDS15P at either Leaps and Bounds or code BABY15P at One Step Ahead to save 15% on your $100+ purchase.

It’s not too useful if you’re just picking up little stuff, but if you’re making a big-ticket kid purchase, you may find it handy.

Enjoy, and let me know if you figure out where June went.
