Hey, kid, make me some dinner
You bought your kid a Nintendo DSi, but what has he done for you lately? Not enough, that’s what. He should totally make you dinner.
And now he can (or you can, if you’ve always wanted your handheld gaming console to teach you to cook—I don’t judge): Amazon has America’s Test Kitchen: Let’s Get Cooking for the Nintendo available right now for $3.49 with free shipping (when you buy via BLINQ as the seller). This would make a great stocking stuffer, if you can hang on to it for that long. Personally, I think it’s high time those kids earned their keep.
Ooh la Olay
Do you love Olay products? Are you eligible for Amazon coupons? If you answered “yes” to both of these questions, you win a year’s supply of Turtle Wax. Wait. No. (Sidebar: As a child—watching game shows where this was frequently a prize—I was convinced Turtle Wax was made of turtles, and I thought it was a terribly cruel product. This may explain some things about me.) Anyway, no Turtle Wax! Just great deals on Olay products!
If you have access to Amazon coupons, right now you can save $3 on two Olay facial products and/or save $3 on two Olay bath products by clipping the coupons. Many of the eligible items are already marked down, and some are eligible for further savings/free shipping when you buy via Subscribe & Save.
And I feel reasonably confident telling you that none of the featured products are made from turtles. So there’s that.
[Edited to add: There’s also currently a $10 mail-in rebate on your $30 Olay purchase, too. (Thanks, Elle!)]
26 feet of freedom for Fido
I don’t use a retractable leash for our dog usually—if we’re just going for a walk around the neighborhood, we use a regular leash—but when we go camping or hiking I like to have a longer leash for her so that she can explore a little bit. Unfortunately, our 16-foot leash ends up feeling pretty short (to her) whenever there’s something particularly interesting to smell. And yet I’ve been hesitant to buy a longer leash because they’re kind of pricey.
But! Today Buy.com has this 26-foot retractable leash for just $6.99 shipped. I think I can spare that for the world’s most spoiled dog.
Now all I need to do is hope she doesn’t do that thing where she winds around my legs and cuts off my circulation.
There’s nothing more patriotic than a sale
Not to be left out, Children’s Place is starting their 4th of July savings early, too. Enjoy free shipping on every order through the holiday, and you can use coupon code H3H2012 for an additional 20% off, too.
I sometimes forget that they carry shoes, but I’m seeing a ton of those in the clearance section. I am trying not to be bitter that my son just outgrew their sizing.
Get patriotic at Old Navy, Gap, and Banana Republic
It’s that time of year again! Old Navy has their $4 flag tees, plus the more you spend this weekend during their sale, the more you save—coupon code ONSAVEBIG takes 15% off any order, and 20% off your $100+ order.
Meanwhile, Gap is having their Red Bright + Blue Sale, with savings of up to 40% off.
And finally, coupon code BRSTARS takes another 40% off already-reduced items this weekend at Banana Republic.
Spend $50+ across any of these Gap Family sites and your shipping is free, automatically. So is your sense of smug satisfaction about not going to the mall on the weekend.
Shoes and… tunes?
You already know to check out 6pm.com whenever you need a great deal on a pair of shoes, but do you remember that they carry other items, too? Clothing, purses, even headphones! Today they’re featuring a Skullcandy boutique with savings of up to 60% off, which means it’s a great time to replace those earbuds the dog chewed on.
Not that that’s ever happened here, or anything. Although Licorice says she’s completely innocent, but also very sorry.
Shoes, glorious shoooooes
When in doubt, buy shoes. I’m sure someone said that. It may have been me, but whatever. Details!
The Buy One Pair, Get The 2nd Half Off sale is back at Famous Footwear, and that’s good news if you have a whole family to shop for (or if you need multiple pairs yourself; I don’t judge). [Edited to remove coupon code per merchant request. My apologies!]
Shipping is a flat $4.50 for your entire order, regardless of size.
Sunshine savings at Bealls
Our favorite purveyor of Tervis tumblers, Bealls, is offering spend-more-save-more savings for the next few days. Use coupon code SUNSHINE to take $5 off your $25+ order or $10 off your $40+ order.
I’m not seeing any rock-bottom Tervis deals, this time, but they carry all sorts of things. There are some excellent shoe deals (I know, I know; I’m thoroughly predictable) and even some good bargains on clothing, though. Combine the sale prices with the coupon and you could clean up.
Shipping is free on your $59+ order when you use the coupon, too. Bonus!
Yet another good day to Kohls
Ah, Wednesday. Wednesdays are always great days to shop Kohls, thanks to those ubiquitous “One-Day Sale”s they seem to do every week.
Stack up the savings today: In addition to the sale, everyone gets free shipping on their $75+ purchase, and earns $10 Kohls Cash for every $50 spent. If you don’t have a Kohls charge card, you can also use coupon code SUNNY15T for an additional 15% off your purchase. If you do have a Kohls charge card, use coupon code SHOP30 for an additional 30% off your purchase, plus you can stack that with code MVCFUN4ME for free shipping on any size order.
Hooray for Wednesday!
Find your Bliss
I confess, I used to be a the-drugstore-products-are-fine kind of gal. Skin care, schmincare. Why spend a ton of money?
And then… I turned 40. Alas.
I’m still not going to take out a second mortgage for magic face cream, or anything, but I sure am a lot more mindful of what I use on my skin, now. Ahem.
So there’s a special place in my heart for Bliss products, because my skin seems to like ’em, but I still have to keep an eye out for sales because, well, because I’m me. Today’s one of those lucky days, though: Shop Bliss and use coupon code BYE2JUNE to save 20% on almost everything (certain brand exclusions apply, but it works on all Bliss branded items). But hurry—the coupon is good today (June 27th, 2012) only.
