Half off clearance? Totally Hot.

To be clear, I guess Hot Topic is, by definition, always hot. But right now they’re offering an additional 50% off their already-marked-down clearance, plus if you spend $50+ you can use coupon code HTA10OFFMY for an additional $10 off.

Hot Topic makes me feel very old. But the kids—you know, the ones who play their crazy music far too loud—they seem to like it.

Now get off my lawn, you whippersnappers.

Aprons so pretty, you won’t mind cooking

I am not one to wear a pretty apron, because chances are excellent that any apron I wear will end up completely splattered with food, anyway. But some women can truly pull off that cute-in-the-kitchen look with a fabulous apron, and to those women I say: What time should I be there for dinner?

Oh, wait. To those women I also say: Check out Flirty Aprons for adorable and/or chic aprons, and through the end of the month you can use coupon code MAY40 to save 40% on your order!

They have adorable pint-sized versions for girls, too. My only complaint is the lack of aprons for little boys. (Hey, my son made dinner tonight. But cherry blossoms just aren’t his style.)

Save at Old Navy today

Today’s a good day to shop online at Old Navy—provided you don’t need baby/toddler clothes, jeans, or any of their “Everyday Steals”—because you can save 25% on your entire purchase (except for the aforementioned categories) with coupon code ONMELON. It’s good today (May 23rd, 2011) only, so hop to it if you plan to take advantage.

Personally, I don’t understand why these coupons work on clearance items but not on the items that are regular “value priced” things, but I’m not arguing. Just sayin’.

Cut-rate Kindles

Dying for a Kindle, but trying to find the best deal? Check out today’s deal at Woot—they’ve got 2nd generation refurbished 3G Kindles for just $90 plus $5 shipping.

Very, very tempting….

In case you need to cut some soda cans

If you are a child of the 70s, like me, chances are you can’t see a Ginsu knife without remembering the commercial where the announcer declares with utter wonderment that these knives can cut right through a soda can, and then slice a tomato with ease. (Okay, I had to look it up. Here you go. You are welcome.) I’ve never actually owned Ginsus, but I did love that commercial. Heh.

Today’s Target Daily Deals feature a really cool 8-piece Ginsu set with a bamboo block for just $60 shipped (compare to $70 at Amazon, where it has great reviews). You can also use coupon code I77QSLJ2 to save another $5, making it just $55 shipped.

I don’t recommend you really use them to cut through cans, but hey, that’s your call.

All the Oceans

Here’s another one to consider for Father’s Day—Amazon currently has the Ocean’s Trilogy on Blu-ray (that’s, of course, Ocean’s 11, Ocean’s 12, and Ocean’s 13) available for just $18. It’s their Blu-ray deal of the week this week!

This one is extra bargain-y (totally a word) because you can be all “I bought it for you because I know how much you love this sort of intrigue!” and yet, there you go, three movies chock-full of George Clooney for you to enjoy. It’s a total win-win.

Saturday deals

The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and my dog is whining. (We’re getting a new fence. The dog is displeased by the fence guys.) Let’s all agree to ignore the dog. Hey, let’s shop for something pretty!

If you have your eye on anything full-price at The Limited, today’s the day to scoop it up—use coupon code PICNIC40 for 40% off anything that’s not already marked down.

Bare Necessities is having their big semi-annual sale, with markdowns on… just about everything, really. Coupon code SPRING15 will take an additional 15% off, but has some brand exclusions, so you may have to play with it a little.

Get 30% off an free shipping at Coldwater Creek with coupon code NZN6016 this weekend. It works in the Outlet, which is where I often scoop up generic thank-you and just-because-I-like-you gifts for the gift closet.

And if you’re hitting Lands’ End, ship your order for free—just use coupon code ROADTRIP with PIN 1051.

That should keep you busy for a while, right? I’m going to go shoot my dog with a tranquilizer dart. (Kidding! All I have to do is bury the tranquilizer in peanut butter and she laps it right up.) (Still kidding!)

Hip hip hooFriday

School has been out for two days. I have yet to hear “Mom, I’m bored.” We’re calling this one a win.

You can win at Friday, too, with a great deal (or three). Alternatively, I might be willing to send you my teenager. But I think a good sale is probably a better deal for you.

Children’s Place is doing another buy more, get more event this weekend. Get 15% off any order with coupon code W9D2011, 20% off your $40+ order with code V9D2011, or 25% off your $50+ order with code U9D2011.

It’s Friends and Family time at Stila; if you didn’t meet all your cosmetics needs with yesterday’s Clinique deal, check them out—you can use coupon code FRIENDS11 for 20% off and free shipping on any order.

It’s Friends and Family time at Dockers, too—use coupon code FRIENDS for 30% off your order (shipping is automatically free on $100+).

I went to look at the Amazon Friday Sale and was immediately waylaid by today’s Gold Box deal—it’s the Clint Eastwood The Man With No Name trilogy, which would be a great Father’s Day gift for the Clint-loving father in your life. Of course, today’s Friday Sale has the usual crop of coffee and such. Though they do have a deal on this Ladie’s Pink Snap Blade Knife, just in case you’re too lovely and delicate to use the regular orange one. (That sound? Oh, that was just my forehead hitting the desk.)

Check out the “bonus save” at Eversave today to day $35 to spend on fashion jewelry at Ettika for just $15. Cute stuff, particularly if you have a hard-to-please teen.

And—oh yes, I would never forget them—6pm.com has some smokin’ deals on New Balance sneakers today.

So. These deals, or my teenager. Which is it going to be? Hello? Hey, guys…?
