More markdowns before I hit the road

December 31, 2008 | Hot Hot Hot!

Today is the beginning of the huge Macy’s year-end clearance, so if you’ve had your eye on something over there, chances are excellent that it’s been further reduced. Could be worth a look, between the markdowns and the bonus buys and the flying monkeys. (Okay, technically speaking, there are probably not any flying monkeys.)

My family’s about to pile back into the car for a good portion of the day, so I will wish you all a very merry New Year now, and be back with you (and the bargains; of course) tomorrow.

Here’s to a happy, healthy, and hopefully cheap 2009!

Three times the American Girl entertainment

December 30, 2008 | For the kids, Hot Hot Hot!

Love the American Girl movies? Now’s your chance to scoop up all three of them together in one place—Amazon has the American Girl Three-Pack 74% off right now, just $15.49 for all three DVDs.

Good wholesome entertainment at a cheapskate-approved price. Is this a great country or what?

If you need to rock out. . .

Hot Hot Hot!

There was a small part of me that was thinking of picking up Rock Band after the holidays, you know, for the kids. (Erm, the kids who aren’t yet old enough to play it. But I was just being proactive, you know.) But somehow, once all was said and done, we had not only a new Wii Fit but eight other new games for the kids. (Hey, I only bought two of them.) So… I can’t really justify it, now.

But if you can, it looks like Amazon’s got Guitar Hero World Tour for the Wii marked down to $159.99 with free shipping. That’s the entire band kit, so that you can rock out in style.

I’ll, um, just be over here playing Mario Kart.

Stack up the savings

Hot Hot Hot!, What to Wear

If it’s plus-size clothing that you’re needing, look no further than the current bargain blowout going on at Catherines. In addition to items marked down to as much as 80% off and intimates on Buy Two, Get One Free, you can pick a coupon and save even more.

You may need to experiment a bit to see which one saves you the most, but choose from any of the following:

776902405 — free shipping on $100+
776902207 — 10% off (no minimum)
776902405 — $15 off $100+

Also, don’t forget that they carry one-size-fits-all items like jewelry and fragrance sets, too. It’s never too early to start getting ready for next Christmas, right? Ow, stop throwing things….

It’s in the bag

Hot Hot Hot!

It’s getting close to the time when everyone resolves to go to the gym more often, and even though we all know that by February we’re all liable to be back to snoozing the alarm clock and vowing to go tomorrow (maybe), right now we’re all good intentions.

So why not get yourself a nice bag to take to the gym? It’ll look good on the floor of your closet, too, once you slack off.

Amazon has a bunch of New Balance duffels marked down to around $15, and eligible for free Super Saver Shipping.

Hey, at least you can keep your resolve not to pay too much.

Automatic savings at Liz

Hot Hot Hot!, What to Wear

Once you get those new shoes, you may need a little something to wear with them. I’m just saying. And maybe you got a little mad money for the holidays, and you’ve been waiting for the right sale.

Today (December 30th, 2008) only, go do all the shopping you like over at Liz Claiborne, and you’ll automatically save more, the more you spend. Orders of $100+ save $25, orders of $150+ save $50, and orders of $300+ save $125!

It works on everything, so start in the clearance section and watch the savings rack up.

Do you still need shoes?

Hot Hot Hot!

I know—that was a silly question. Because you always need shoes, right? I mean, if the price is right?

The sales this week at 6pm.com are nuts. They’ve got up to 75% off Privo, 65% off Easy Spirit, 60% off Crocs, and more. Plus, today only, they’ve got select Jansport backpacks for just $9.95!

See, the kid needs a backpack, so you’re doing the altruistic thing and shopping for that… and then maybe some super-cute ballet flats fall into your cart!

What? It could happen.

More Monster Sale

December 29, 2008 | For the kids, Hot Hot Hot!, What to Wear

It seems like the big Monster Sale at The Children’s Place is a more or less continuous thing, but I just noticed that they have a separate section of $9.99 and under items, now, which means we’re headed into the lowest prices of the season on a bunch of clearance.

The last 15% off coupon has expired, looks like, but try using code NEXTJ78 for 10% off on top of the sale prices. Shipping is always a flat $5, no matter how much you order.

I love me some Children’s Place. Next year my daughter will have completely outgrown them, and I will weep. And then I will have to ask my doctor for some tranquilizers, because I fear that’s the only way I’ll be able to manage shopping in the Juniors section for my little girl. *sniffle*

Mama always said to wear nice underwear

Hot Hot Hot!, What to Wear

The big Winter Sale is on right now at Bare Necessities, with huge savings on all of the things you need anyway, like bras and panties. And if you go through this link right here:

… well, like it says, you’ll get another 10% off.

Orders of $25+ get free shipping, automatically, through January 8th, 2009.

And then you can make good on your New Year’s resolution to throw out the stuff with holes in ‘em. Seriously. I don’t care that no one sees them. It’s time.

Also, it’s Monday

For the kids, Hot Hot Hot!

I can’t keep track of the days during vacation. It has all blurred together into one gigantic day of chaos. (Hello, I must be going. And why aren’t you kids in school??)

Nevertheless, the days march onward. And apparently today is Monday, which means it’s time for the Amazon Monday Toy Markdown, and I know, who could possibly need more toys at this point? Also, some of the prices aren’t that thrilling, true.

But I’m pointing it out because there are multiple games for the Leapfrog Didj that are about half off, so it’s worth taking a look if a short person in your life received one of those over the holidays.

But, seriously, when is school starting up again? Because there are an awful lot of children underfoot.
