I’m preserving my energy, you see, for next week. Next week is when things get crazy—we’ll have our second Big Prize Week plus we’ll be gearing up for Black Friday and then, the main event itself. So today, I’m slacking off a little. I have a few deal suggestions for you, though.

Check out the current clearance at Pottery Barn Teen—lots of backpacks and duffel bags and laptop/tablet carriers (not just for teens!) about 75% off and with free shipping. Nice stuff, there.

Children’s Place is doing another Buy More, Save More event; everyone can use coupon code A6F2011 for 15% off, or get 20% off your $40+ order with Z5F2011, or 25% off $50+ with code Y5F2011.

It’s Super Saturday over at Macy’s, and coupon code XJW562A992 should take an extra $10 off your $75+ purchase (some restrictions apply, but I tried it on clothing already on sale and it worked).

Amazon’s Goldbox Deal today is a 16GB SDHC flash memory card for just $17. Remember when we happily paid $50 for one that held, oh, 250MB? The good ol’ days!

I picked up a few copies of Papertoy Monsters from Fab.com today; it’s slightly cheaper than Amazon has it, and under $10 if you have credit you’re looking to spend. That’s perfect for my gift closet, as making endless creatures out of paper seems to be something my kids and their friends are always happy to do.

Sit back and enjoy the weekend, because starting Monday, it’s going to be a wild ride all up in here. I hope you’re ready!
