Heads up, Minecrafters
Did you know that there’s a Minecraft card game? Did you know that today it’s just $6.99 (its lowest price ever) at Amazon? It’s an add-on, so you’d need to throw it in with a larger order to avoid paying for shipping, but what a great stocking stuffer or have-on-hand gift for your favorite Minecrafters.
It averages 4.5 stars with nearly 200 reviews, too. Recommended for ages 8+.
That’sssssssss a very nice deck of cards you have there….
Price drops on board games

The Rose King for $7.98 (50% off)
Monarch for $9 (69% off)
Vikings on Board for $9 (75% off)

Happy gaming!
I’d like one of everything, please
Was there ever a store that made me make more obnoxious squeeeeeing noises than ModCloth? Probably not. Everything there is so pretty and quirky and wonderful. I want to buy the whole store.
I can’t do that—not until I win the lottery, anyway, and since I never play, that’s gonna be a long wait—but today I (and you) can save 40% on a whole slew of seasonable favorites, as part of their Twelve Days of Flash Sales. Spend $75+ and your order ships for free, too.
I’ve been a pretty good girl, this year. Maybe I’ll just go browse a little….
Got Nerf?
Those sweet December price drops are starting to roll in at Amazon, and if you’ve got weaponry on your list—Nerf weaponry, that is; I don’t want to hear about anything that’s not made of foam—today’s your lucky day. Check out these price drops which are part of today’s Daily Deals, all of which are registering as “lowest price ever” on these items:
Nerf N-Strike GlowShot Blaster for $4.15 (78% off)
Nerf N-Strike BowStrike Blaster for $4.15 (48% off)
Nerf Modulus IonFire Blaster for $5.77 (62% off)
Nerf N-Strike Elite DualStrike Blaster for $7.11 (64% off)
Nerf Doomlands 2169 Vagabond Blaster
for $11.51 (54% off)
Nerf N-Strike Elite CrossBolt Blaster for $12.18 (51% off)
Nerf Modulus Motorized Blaster for $13.99 (53% off)
And if you need ammo refills:
Official Nerf N-Strike Elite Series 30-Dart Refill for $3.90 (57% off)
Official Nerf N-Strike Elite Series 75-Dart Refill for $7.67 (62% off)
(I’m all about peaceful alternatives, but I am a sucker for Nerf… especially at these prices.)
Cast iron with a bonus for Gatlinburg
If you have a cast iron skillet on your shopping list, check this out: This year’s Great Smoky Mountains Lodge skillet is available right now for $30. That’s not a deal, but $15 of your purchase price will go to the Dollywood Foundation’s “My People Fund,” helping families affected by the recent wildfires in the Gatlinburg, TN area.
It’s a nice way to do a little good while making sure your cornbread is the most delicious.
The last Woot-Off of the year!
Granted, the year is nearly over, but still—when they tell me it’s the last one of the year, that does make it seem a little more special, right?
They’re Wooting Off all day today at Woot, Home.Woot, Electronics.Woot, Computers.Woot, Tools.Woot, Fashion.Woot, Sport.Woot, Kids.Woot, and Wine.Woot (motto: drink up!).
Deals rotate until they sell out or every 30 minutes or so, whichever comes first. $5 ships as many orders as you make all day, and I hope you didn’t have anything else to do, because this is my favorite way to score incredible deals on stuff you weren’t even sure you needed until you saw it.
Skater chic for the teens
I only shop at Tilly’s for my kids when they have a huge sale—because I’m a cheapskate—but when they do, I do, because they have so many of the “cool” things I otherwise refuse to pay for. (Pro tip: They often have ridiculously good deals on trendy sneakers—think Nike, Converse, Vans, and more—if you catch them on one of these sales.)
Anyway! Right now there’s an extra 50% markdown on everything in the Clearance, plus the more spend, the more you save. Spend $75 and $15 comes off at checkout; spend $100 and it’s $20; spend $125 and it’s $25. Shipping is free on your $59+ order, otherwise rates start at $8.
It’s an Impossible deal
I’m torn, because the Mission: Impossible movies are just good, you know? I’m aware that Tom Cruise is a nutjob, though. So I feel a little guilty. But not guilty enough not to watch them.
Today Amazon has the Mission: Impossible 5-Movie Blu-ray Collection available for just $18.99. That’s just a few bucks per movie, and cheaper than it’d be for you and a date to see just one film at the theater (at least around here). If you’re looking for a holiday gift for your favorite adrenaline junkie, this could be it.
Just try not to think of Tom Cruise as a person aside from being Ethan Hunt, that’s all.
Dig these department store sales
If you’ve been crossing items off your list and have now entered the “pick up a few general items because surely there are folks I’ve forgotten or things I haven’t thought of” territory, it’s time to hit up the department stores (online, of course, because are you nuts?, you don’t go into a store between Thanksgiving and Christmas).
Today at Bon-Ton, they’re offering up to 60% off site-wide, plus up to another 25% off sale merchandise with coupon code BIGSTWD1216. Shipping is free on your $25+ order with coupon code FREESHIP25, too.
And then over at Kohls, they’ve got a rare works-for-everyone (no Kohls card required) 25% off coupon code YOUGET25, plus they’ve got tons of Door Busters and sales, plus you’ll get free shipping on $50+ to your home (or ship it to your local store for free).
Be sure to compare between the stores for the best deal—Fiestaware (see, I’ve still got it on the brain) is similarly priced at both sites, but Kohls will let you apply a coupon, while Bon-Ton won’t.
Glory to the gamers
Awww, I find myself a little sad that my son is too old for this, now—he used to love getting all the different Guinness books for the holidays, and this one, especially. Amazon has the 2017 Gamer’s Edition of the Guinness World Records book available for just $7, right now (half price, and its lowest price ever). This is a great gift for any elementary-to-middle-school-aged gamer, and you may find the high schoolers peeking at it, as well.
This was also always one of my favorite gift ideas for reluctant readers, as the contents are interesting but smallish chunks, so as not to be overwhelming.
