Heads up, K-Cup users

by Mir at 10:34 am on February 2, 2012 in Groceries, Hot Hot Hot!

I know that for many of you with Keurigs, life is merely a series of scavenger hunts for a good deal on K-cups. Heh. If that sounds familiar, you might want to check out Eversave today—they’ve got a deal where $17 gets you $35 to spend at Coffee For Less, and that’s a great way to score some K-cups for way less than the usual price.

(They have coffee in all forms, actually, but it’s the K-cups that caught my eye.)

Shipping is a flat rate of $5.95, or get free shipping on $45+. I’m sure you can figure out how to wrangle the best deal with your $35 voucher, because you’re smart like that.

For the love of sports

by Mir at 8:43 am on February 2, 2012 in Hot Hot Hot!, Product Talk

You might remember that back in June, I told you about a deal on ESPN’s “30 for 30″ set for your favorite sports maniac, but at the time the best deal available on the Blu-ray version was $60.

Today the Amazon Gold Box holds both the DVD and Blu-ray versions, and the Blu-ray set is a cool $50—its lowest price ever. $50 for 30 movies? That’s hours and hours of entertainment for a crazy low cost.

Just think how smart and pretty you’d be if you picked this up now and were all set come Father’s Day this year. So pretty.

Warehouse prices on your favorites

by Mir at 10:24 am on February 1, 2012 in For the kids, Hot Hot Hot!, What to Wear

Have you checked out the big Warehouse Event going on now at Lands’ End? It’s like the Outlet got all jacked up on savings steroids, and now you can nab some of the best prices of the season.

Even better, all this week you can shop and use coupon code FINEGAUGE with PIN 9632 for free shipping on any order. Because we all know that paying shipping is for suckers.

Positively nuts

by Mir at 8:47 am on February 1, 2012 in Groceries, Hot Hot Hot!

This one obviously isn’t for those dealing with peanut allergies, but… I have a new true love. It’s powdered peanut butter, and yes, when I first heard of it my response was, “Ewwwww…?”

But the thing is, it’s genius. It’s shelf-stable, low in fat and calories, and high in protein. It’s perfect for smoothies, granola, cookies… I could go on and on, but I’ll stop. In short: Good stuff.

And right now Amazon has a 16-ounce bag of powdered peanut butter for $11, and that’s eligible for Prime or Super Saver Shipping. That’s the cheapest price it’s ever been, and if you love peanut butter, I’d jump on it.

(Now if someone would just make powdered chocolate with 85% fewer calories and all the taste, my life would be complete.)

So long, Simple

by Mir at 10:37 am on January 31, 2012 in Hot Hot Hot!, What to Wear

Longtime readers know I often extoll the virtues of Simple Shoes—they’re the comfiest sneakers I own, and my vegetarian kiddo loves ‘em because they’re eco-friendly and make lots of no-animal-product styles. Unfortunately, it looks like Simple is going out of business, much to the dismay of hippies everywhere.

Sniffle.

The good news is that Simple isn’t sold out everywhere just yet, and today at 6pm.com they’ve got some deep discounts on Simple styles. I see flip-flops starting at $8, so stock up before they’re impossible to find.

Rub-a-dub-dub, stock up time on…

by Mir at 9:04 am on January 31, 2012 in Hot Hot Hot!

… rubber duckies! Wait, no. That’s not it. Soap! Stock up time on soap! (Because, really, how many rubber duckies does one person need? But you always need soap.)

it’s stock up time at Bath and Body Works, and that means anti-bacterial soaps are 5 for $15 or 7 for $20, plus Signature Collection items are buy 3, get 2 free.

Use coupon code GIFT20 to take an additional 20% off your order; it’ll offset your shipping costs. And as a final bonus, you’ll get offered a Pink Chiffon travel-size lotion at checkout for just $1. (I have no idea what chiffon smells like, but why not.)

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a PowerCapes deal!

by Mir at 12:03 pm on January 30, 2012 in For the kids, Hot Hot Hot!

My new favorite gift to give to little people is a cape from PowerCapes. Is there anything more magical than a cape when you’re a kid? And anything cooler than getting to custom design one for a kid who will love it? I say no. They are awesome in every possible way.

Their prices are quite reasonable, but far be it from us to turn down a discount, right? Today at Mamapedia Deals you can snag $40 to PowerCapes for just $20. Capes start at $24, and then there’s other cool accessories like shirts, wristguards, and masks, too.

They even make capes in adult sizes. I don’t judge.

Programmable cooking for a smaller family

by Mir at 10:17 am on January 30, 2012 in Hot Hot Hot!, Product Talk

Those of you who’ve spent a lot of time around here know that I have a small… ahhh… problem when it comes to crock pots. I own four of them. And I can quit any time I want to, see, I just really enjoy the convenience of set-and-forget meals that I can deal with in the morning—right after I’ve had my coffee—instead of trying to cook during the craziest time of the day.

My favorite crock pot right now is a 6.5 quart programmable one, because I tend to cook in large batches and freeze the extras. But if you’re not into that, and/or if you have a smaller family, you’ve maybe noticed that the smaller programmable models are just about as expensive as the big ones, which seems kind of unfair.

Today Buy.com has a Refurbished Cuisinart 3.5 quart programmable slow cooker available for just $35 shipped. The cheapest I’m seeing it at Amazon is about $47, though it looks like $60 is the more typical price (for a new one, obviously).

This would be perfect if you’ve been wanting a smaller unit that you can set in the morning and not worry about no matter how late you get home in the evening.

Stock up on basics, ship it for free

by Mir at 7:20 am on January 30, 2012 in For the kids, Hot Hot Hot!, What to Wear

You know all those socks in your drawer with holes in them? The ones you keep swearing to replace, but your busy life has somehow not left you with time to go… sock shopping? (Okay, I may be projecting. This one is probably just me.) Anyway, if anyone in the family is in need of socks, undies, and other comfy things like t-shirts and sweats, check out the Comfort Crazy Sale going on right now at Hanes.

Prices are slashed on just about everything, plus you can use coupon code 86937 to ship your order for free.

And yes, I’ll be buying some new socks. Finally.
