$.33 shipping on the coolest mismatches

It’s already Memorial Day over at LittleMissMatched, which means it’s the perfect time to grab all of the wacky mismatched socks, flip-flops, and other accessories you love. For the next few days every order ships for just $.33!

That’s a small price to pay for all that awesomeness. My daughter still loves their socks, even though she’s headed to high school. Because who doesn’t love crazy socks? No one I know.

An early Memorial Day present

What? You don’t usually get presents for Memorial Day? Me neither, but when Last Call says they’ll give me an extra 40% off for the day, hey, call it whatever you want. (They’re calling it a Memorial Day Sale, which seems… premature… but I’m going to just go with it.)

Everything except clearance is an extra 40% off when you add it to your cart, and if you spend $75+ you can apply coupon code LC75MAY to ship your order for free.

Really, Memorial Day is rarely 1) in the middle of the week like this or 2) such a good deal.

Am I a sucker for bento? Yes.

No, I am not buying any more lunch containers. I said no. I have plenty. Tons! And school’s out for summer, anyway! I do not care that there’s a Miya Company boutique at Fab.com today that’s filled with all manner of adorable bento boxes. Just because they’ve got stuff at about half off doesn’t mean I need it.

Stop looking at me like that.

Kindles for everyone!

Granted, I hear the Kindle Fire is pretty sweet, but if you don’t mind going a little bit old-school with your e-reader, I love how the prices on Kindles just seem to keep dropping and dropping.

If you’re finally ready to take the plunge, but want to do it as cheaply as possible, today’s probably the day—you can hop on over to Amazon Local to snag a voucher for $20 off a certified refurbished 6″ Kindle with Special Offers, making it just $49 shipped.

This is the model Kindle I have, and I love it. I just carry it around in my purse and I always have a book or twelve on hand, plus the Special Offers sometimes alert me to coupons and deals I wouldn’t otherwise know about. Twofer!

Way to Woot Off

To some, it’s merely Tuesday. To those in the know, however, it’s a Woot-Off day! That means you’re not going to get anything done at all today. Sorry!

For the uninitiated, that means that today at Woot, Kids.Woot, Wine.Woot, and Sellout.Woot, products will be offered in a rotation one cannot predict or imagine. A new product will be offered, it will either sell out or time will run down, and then after whichever happens first, another product will come up.

If you have the time to keep an eye on it, this is a great way to snag a deal. It’s not particularly time-efficient, but you never know what you might find.

The cheapest deal on a new iPod Touch

Been waiting for a deal on a latest-generation, non-refurbished iPod Touch? Amazon has both black and white 8GB versions right now for $175 shipped. True, that’s only $25 off the retail price, but for the newest model that’s as cheap as you’re going to find it.

Of course, my teenager owns a Touch and I’m pretty sure it’s been surgically attached to her hands, so I’m not necessarily recommending it, but she probably would.

Hit the road

Planning on spending some quality time in the car this summer, listening to your children ask “Are we there yet?” For extra storage on your travels, you might want to check out today’s Sears Real Deal—it’s a Thule Quest soft-sided car-top carrier for just $55 (and you can pick it up at your local Sears for free, if you don’t want to pay for shipping).

For comparison purposes and reviews, take a look at the same carrier at Amazon; great reviews overall, and a regular price of about $81.

We have a carrier like this (not a Thule, though, unfortunately) and I’m always amazed at how much use it gets. Apparently we have a lot of stuff to tote around. Also, it’s handy when the kids misbehave. (Not really.)

Much better than real bugs

I have to admit that I didn’t really “get” hexbugs when they first came out. Plastic bugs that move around like real bugs? Whaaaa…? I didn’t see the appeal. Then again, I don’t much like bugs.

But the thing is that hexbugs are 1) not real bugs (much less ikky) and 2) really kind of fun to watch, because they’re tiny robots. The ones my son owns figure out alternate routes and react to obstacles and all kinds of neat things. So! If that piques your interest, go check out today’s Kids.Woot, because they’ve got a sweet Hexbug Nano habitat bundle today for just $19.99 plus shipping. (For reference: Just a single hexbug at Amazon will run you about $6.25, so with two bugs in the set figure you’re paying practically nothing for the habitat.) You get two bugs, plus everything you need to build a big habitrail-esque space for them to play in.

Warning: You may even play with these when your kid is at school. Just letting you know.

How YOU doin’?

Hey there, Spring Clearance Sale at 6pm.com… how you doin’? You look great! I mean, you know, really, really good. All those up-to-80%-off prices on shoes and even in-season clothing. Mmmmm, mmm mmm. If I didn’t have to leave right now I would shop the heck out of you, you know what I’m sayin’?

Awww, c’mon baby, don’t be like that! Come back! It’s a compliment! Sheesh.

Two ways to save at Lands’ End

Been eyeing something at Lands’ End and waiting for a code? Your wish is my command!

Right now you can use coupon code INTHESWIM with PIN 2767 for free shipping on any size order. Or—if you’re shopping sales/clearance—use code MONEY with PIN 2030, instead, if you’d rather get an extra 20% off and free shipping on $50+.

The real issue here is when do you not need something from Lands’ End? I’ve yet to discover that time in my own life….
