What to wear under there
It’s Friends and Family time at Maidenform, and when it comes to a sale, you know we’re all friends and family.
Stack coupon code SLICKFREESHIP (free shipping) with FFJUN12 (30% off) to rack up the savings, and you have the perfect excuse to throw away any undergarment whose time has passed. (Really, once the elastic is no longer, well, elastic, it’s time to say goodbye.)
Celebrate the Solstice with sandals
I know I’m a day late (and probably more than a dollar short…) but over at 6pm.com they’re having a Summer Solstice sale, with tons of sandals and other things all under $30.
Does the length of the day have anything to do with your need for new shoes? Probably not. Just go with it.
Because I like to pretend to be Martha
You know my garden is entirely organic, right? That means I do things like drown the slugs in beer and pick the tomato horn worms off my plants with chopsticks. (Not because I’m Asian or anything. Just because they squick me out and I don’t want to touch them.)
I’m pleased that I manage to keep it organic, but it also means that sometimes things die or get overrun with bugs and I’m left scratching my head. (In confusion. Not because I have bugs.)
Right now Amazon has a 2-year subscription to Organic Gardening magazine available for just $5. Are there tips in there for keeping the bugs out of your cucumbers? I certainly hope so. I’ll let you know once I get my first issue.
Something’s fishy
If you take fish oil, check out GNC today—they’re offering half off select fish oils (discount shows up in your cart) and free shipping on any order.
Me, I thought fish oil was fish oil, but there’s a whole page of options. Apparently you can be fishy in all sorts of ways. (Sorry, I’m finding humor where I can, these days. This just strikes me as funny.)
Halloween in June
I know, it’s crazy early to think about Halloween, but if it meant you could save up to 92%, you’d do it, right? Of course you would!
Right now they’re having a clearance blowout at BuyCostumes.com, and you can take an extra 50% off sale prices with coupon code SUPER50.
Whether you’re proactive enough to grab something for next Halloween or just want to fill out a dress-up chest for hours of imaginative play, the prices are definitely right.
With a name like that…
I feel it my duty to point out that today Fab.com has a boutique of t-shirts by Ape Snort.
Ape. Snort.
They’re about as fabulous as you might imagine, kind of Threadless-y but less expensive. And yes, I totally did buy the “Hare on my chest” shirt for my little guy. It will make him laugh.
Yeah, TCP, you know me
Random thing that occurred to me this morning: Children’s Place used to actually brand themselves as “TCP” in their marketing. Now they’ve dropped the “the” and don’t do that at all. It’s too bad, because it really limits the number of terrible tap jokes I can make.
Anyway! Today (Monday, June 18th) they’re offering free shipping on every order, automatically. Between the current Monster Sale and coupon code Y6H2012 for another 20% off, you can clean up. Plus you don’t even have to listen to my lame jokes. Score!
Sale blowout at Christopher & Banks
Just a quickie for your Friday afternoon, in case you need a bargain fix.
Right now just about everything is on sale at Christopher & Banks, and shipping is free on every order, automatically, through the weekend.
New arrivals are 25% off; sale items are “up to 60% off,” but if you poke around in the sale section, you’ll find tons of styles marked down to just $9.99. (I give them points for having a good sale, even if they’re not very good at math.)
Make it even better: Use coupon code RMN20 for an additional 20% off. Sweet.
Get ready to party
It’s the most wonderful time of the year—Oriental Trading has a free shipping coupon available! Through this weekend, ship any size order for free with coupon code WCE3284.
Combine that with their Summer Sale and 4th of July specials, and you can get ready for next month’s patriotic parties or just stock up on school supplies or other party goods you’ll need throughout the year.
I see several deals on reusable tote sets that would be great to use for teacher gifts or even just to package regular holiday gifts….
Do you Coco?
I’ll admit it: I tried to develop a taste for coconut water, and I just couldn’t do it. I know it’s healthy and wonderful and all, I just… don’t like it. To drink, that is. I discovered that I can bake with it—happily!—and get all of that extra natural vitamin/mineral boost into the snacks my kids love without anyone being the wiser. It’s a beautiful thing.
Right now Amazon is offering a 20% off select Vita Coco products coupon, and if you actually drink the stuff, be my guest and enjoy. If you don’t, though, I’d recommend snagging the 6-pack of 33.8 ounce cartons for use in cooking; it’s the best deal per ounce (save 20% with the clipped coupon, then another 15% and shipping when you buy via Subscribe & Save), and the least amount of packaging waste.
Also, the potential for “that’s a lovely bunch of coconuts” jokes here is unlimited. Just sayin’.
