Get a free song (or three)
You know what Monday needs? Good tunes. That’ll perk things up around here, right?
Here’s a little present for you, just because you’re pretty: Go hop on over to Amazon and enter the bonus code as directed. It’ll give you $3 towards the MP3 download of your choice. Then you can get your tunes on!
The code is only good through November 29th, though, so don’t add it to your account and then forget about it. The only thing sadder than unused free money is when your ice cream falls off the cone. (Yes, that sad.)
Another Mega-Merry Monday
Yes, it’s getting to be the most wonderful time of the year… which means another Monday of extra deals is up over at the Target Daily Deals! Get some big or get something small, but you’ll definitely save. I’m eyeing those ELF lip glosses for stockings, myself. But if you want the featured armchair, well, that’s cool, too.
Also, I kind of love the frog-shaped humidifier. Though somehow I suspect my children would not be amused.
Winner of the NOVICA contest, plus big news
I have very good news for one of you, and then even better news for the rest of you. Truly.
First, I have a winner for last week’s contest. In the offing was a $50 certificate to NOVICA, and the random number generator has decreed the winner to be commenter 52, Jessica P. Congratulations, Jessica—please check your email! You’ll be buying yourself something purty with someone else’s money, which is the best kind of bargain there is, right?
As always, thanks to all who played, and big, big thanks to our pals at NOVICA for their generosity (for the second year in a row, even).
Now, the even better news: As a special countdown to Black Friday, there will be one prize up for grabs every day this week, culminating in a Really Big Prize on Friday. (And that’s aside from the Windows Phone 7 contest which is still running!) A whole week of prizes! And a super secret awesome prize on Friday! You’re not going to want to miss it, trust me.
Stuff a stocking with SPRay
I don’t know if this game is any good—reviews are mixed, and refer to it as being kind of gross (“Excellent game if you can look past the throwing of the vomit”)—but for $4.56, it’s hard to argue. Pick up your copy of SPRay for the Wii from Amazon and prepare to be disgusted and delighted, I guess.

Shop at Apple!
Saturday deals, with a blender twist
I keep meaning to make this its own post, but it hasn’t happened yet, so I’m just going to put it here. Remember when I paid full price for a new blender? It lasted only a year before it started to falter, so I decided to pull out the big guns. I was ready to buy a Vitamix or a Blendtec to get a blender that would last. And then… I saw this. (Cliff Notes version, if you’d rather not read/watch: Popular Mechanics tested a bunch of blenders and declared the KitchenAid the very best of the bunch.)
I stalked the KitchenAid Store for about a month before they got a new shipment of refurbished blenders into the Outlet section, and then for $59 I got the same blender that Amazon is selling for $96. And I love it. And whisper sweet nothings to it. It’s a monster of a workhorse, so if you need a new blender, run to KitchenAid. (Bonus: If you’re buying more than a blender? This weekend you can use coupon code EARLYFS99 for free shipping on your $99+ order.)
So there’s that.
Today’s Overstock Deal of the Day is a Highloft Supreme 3-inch Memory Foam Topper with great reviews; just $70 with $1 to ship for any size. (As always: That’s a middlin’ deal on the twin, but kind of a screamin’ deal on the king.)
Still need to get your holiday cards done? Check out today’s Merry Deal Reveal at Snapfish: It’s 40% off photo cards with coupon code MERRY1120, today only.
Looking for very specific toys before the mad holiday rush? Over at the Mattel Shop you can use coupon code FF25OFF for 25% off everything and free shipping on $75+. Or you can check out Leapfrog.com and use coupon code LFFAMILY to take 20% off everything and get free shipping on $50+.
And last (for now) but not least, shop Aeropostale this weekend and you can use coupon code AEROHOLIDAY to save 30% on your entire order, and get free shipping on $100+.
What else… oh! I have a winner coming up for you, and I’m gearing up for a few surprises for y’all for Black Friday Week, so you’re going to want to stick around. Pinky swear.

Trip in style with new luggage
Ooooh, just came across this one—check out today’s Deal of the Day at Sears for a 7-piece American Tourister luggage set. MSRP is $240, today it’s available for just $60. Use coupon code SEARS5OFF50 for another $5 off, and ship it to the store for pick-up if you want to save the shipping.
This is probably not a top-of-the-line set, at that price, but it’s pretty hard to argue with a full set of name-brand luggage for $55.
All hail Friday
This is one of those weeks where I don’t know whether to kiss Friday on the lips or tell it what it can do with itself for taking so long to get here. Just sayin’. (Some weeks are like that. Even in Australia.) (Bonus pretty points for everyone who gets the reference!)
Anyway. A little retail therapy is in order. Maybe start with Groupon, because they’re offering $50 to Nordstrom Rack (in-store) for just $25. If it’s not showing up in your city, check another one! It’s definitely available in Chicago, if you need help finding it.
The Target Daily Deals are ready to celebrate the latest Harry Potter movie today! Celebrate with the 7-disc Years 1-6 Blu-ray set for just $50! (For reference: that’s $20 cheaper than the current Amazon price.)
Meanwhile, in the Target Black Friday Center, they’ve got a Wii Fit Plus Biggest Loser bundle for $100. Just in case you’re already anticipating bitter regret and vows to eat better on January 1st.
The Amazon Friday Sale is loaded with coffee again (surprise!), plus if you want some real Vermont maple syrup, check out this Highland Sugarworks 32 oz. jug for just $12.75 when you buy via Subscribe & Save.
If you still don’t have boots (or if you need more boots, because, hello pretty shoes), check out today’s headline at 6pm.com—they’ve got boots under $50 and boots under $100 all sorted out for your browsing pleasure.
Scoop up the sales today at Lands’ End—not only will you enjoy free shipping on every order, but coupon code FROST with PIN 4397 takes $20 off your $75+ order or $50 off your $150+ order! Today’s the last day for this coupon, so get to shopping if you want it.
Count down to Black Friday
You may have noticed that several stores have already begun their “wooo it’s shopping season!” deals for your perusal. (It is the most wonderful time of the year, after all….) Here’s a couple of spots to keep on your radar:
Buy.com is doing an Early Madness feature, with four new deals every day. (Today’s a good day to scoop up a cheap laptop or a few extra memory cards, by the way.)
And the Target Black Friday Center is doing one deal a day (look in the righthand sidebar there)—today it’s Paul Frank pajamas for half off.
See, you could totally leverage these deals to be just like me; get yourself a new computer and some comfy jammies. Ha. Just let me find you a site to pick up a rescue dog and you’ll be all set!
