When you’re ready to pack up Christmas
Maybe you’re starting to think about packing up all of the Christmas decorations, and you’re just realizing now that your new fake tree doesn’t have a bag. (Or maybe that’s just the sort of thing that happens to me.) Right now Amazon has a extra-large bag for a 9-foot tree available for under $12. Perfect for your extra-large tree, or your not-so-extra-large tree and a few other things like wreaths and/or swags.
I think it’s also just about the right size for an unruly child, too. (Kidding! Totally kidding. Mostly.)
Bamboo for you
Need a few bamboo accessories for the kitchen? I think you’d be hard-pressed to find a better deal than today’s offering at Home.Woot—for just $15 shipped you get your choice of a large cutting board, a set of three striped smaller boards, or a 14-piece canister set of tools.
In fact… this deal is so good, it kind of makes me feel bad for the bamboo. It’s okay, bamboo! I value you! (Why yes, it is loud in my head, why do you ask?)
Build it themselves
I know, I know; we all have toys coming out of our ears, ’round about now. But if you’re up for putting something away for the next event, or your little one got a little bit of money to burn for the holiday, I’m digging this Alex Toys Work Bench at Amazon, currently just $22 (free Prime shipping or Super Saver Shipping eligible)—71% off.
If you’re looking for an affordable wooden workbench for the kids that doesn’t take up too much room, this could be the winner. Hard to argue with the price, anyway.
The after-Christmas sale at Dillards
I’m sloooooowly working my way around to the various post-holiday sales, and I can’t believe it took me until today to hit the Dillards sale. Because I have just two words for you: Harry London. And two more: Peppermint Bark.
Uh, not that I’m buying any for me, you understand. It’s, uh, for a friend.
(They have other stuff on sale, too. But fancy peppermint bark is reason enough to shop at the end of December, no?)
Hello, Yellow!
I’ve been so busy enjoying the holidays with extended family (read: eating pie) that I nearly missed the big Hello, Yellow sale at Bath and Body Works. Too many things are on clearance to count, but the prices are the lowest they’ll be all year.
Coupon code GIFT20 will take an additional 20% off any order, while code 10WINTER11 will take $10 off $30+ and give you free shipping on $50+.
Buy on sale now, have your cheap teachers’ and hostess’ gifts ready to go for next year. Booyah.
A little something for you
Now that the holiday madness is winding down, maybe it’s time to get a little something for you. After all, you worked really hard to make things nice for everyone else, right?
Right now at LOFT you can take 50% off everything but new arrivals with coupon code TAKE50.
I’d say you earned it.
Not that you don’t look great, already
I’m sure you don’t have a single wrinkle—after all, you look mahvelous, darling!—but if you’ve been thinking about trying the Olay Pro-X line, now would be the time to do it.
Amazon has the Olay Professional Pro-X Intensive Wrinkle Protocol Kit for just $39.99, though that drops to just $33.99 if you buy via Subscribe and Save.
That’s a good deal, already, but if Amazon offers you grocery coupons, you should see a $10 coupon in the middle of the page which you can clip, dropping the price to just $23.99. And there’s an available $10 rebate, too! That means you could buy this kit for a grand total of under $14 when it’s all said and done. Not bad at all—this costs $50 at Target.
And a very merry Kohlsmas to all
Far be it from Kohls to miss the opportunity to have a sale, of course.
So: Shop the sales and specials today (including the “Early Bird” ones, which go well into the afternoon), everyone gets $.99/item shipping, or free shipping on your $75+ order, automatically. You can redeem Kohls Cash right now, too. Aaaaaaand everyone can use coupon code SLED15 for an extra 15% off anything, or code SLED20 for an extra 20% off your $100+ purchase.
Finally, if you have a Kohls charge card, you can still use coupon code GIFT4KC for free shipping on any order.
Honestly, I expect them to start giving stuff away, any day now. I have no idea how they stay in business with all these sales.
Did 11:00 bring what Santa forgot?
Hopefully you remembered to make the 11:00 rounds—check out today’s boutiques at Fab.com, Rue La La, and One Kings Lane.
I didn’t find anything I needed, today, which leads me to believe I may be coming down with a terrible illness. Either that or I’m just plain shopped out. Can you imagine?
After-Christmas toy deals at Amazon
I cannot imagine that you’re not already all toy-shopped-out (wow; I clearly need more coffee, as that was an utter syntax trainwreck of a sentence), but here’s a few deals I see at Amazon in case your gift closet is in need of a few more things:
Crayola:
Dual-Sided Dry Erase Board for $5.36 (64% off)
Color Wonder Mini Markers for $3.99 (60% off)
Color Wonder Metallic Paper and Markers for $5.99 (60% off)
Color Wonder Fingerpaint for $4.29 (62% off)
And two other items (yes, random non-Crayola-like):
Star Wars Jedi Force Barc Speeder Bike With Anakin for $5 (64% off)
Angry Birds: Knock On Wood Game (remember how no one could find this before Christmas? And now it’s magically on sale?) for $16 (20% off)
I’m sure there will be more falling prices, but I love that Color Wonder stuff and always used to stock up on it on sale, when my kids were little.
