Have you ordered your cards yet?
Friends, I am living in denial. That denial tells me that I have plenty of time before the holidays, and surely this year I will manage to send out holiday cards in plenty of time. Yes. Sure. I’m totally on top of it. I’ll do it tomorrow. Or the next day. For sure.
Anyway, you are probably lots more organized than I am, so you should go on over to check out Vistaprint’s holiday cards and take advantage of their current photo card special—half off and free shipping. The early bird gets the discounted worm, you know.
Plus, then you can feel all superior, later, when you have your cards and I’m still trying to figure out where I put my glasses. (They were here a minute ago….)
Take a night out
You deserve a night off from cooking. No, really. Look at everything you do, all the time. Why not just have a night off, especially now, before the holiday craziness hits?
Hop on over to Restaurant.com right now and you can use coupon code GIVE for 80% off your purchase. That means you can score $25 worth of someone else doing all the work for just $2, which makes a night out a lot easier to justify.
As always, if you haven’t checked them out in a while, look again—new restaurants are added all the time.
Toys for your smartypants, for half off
I’ve been lured in to Groupon yet again (hey, I can quit any time I want to… I just… uhhh… don’t want to), but this time, it’s not even for me. It’s for the children, you know, so it’s totally justifiable.
Stop looking at me like that.
Instead, go check out today’s awesome sidebar San Francisco Groupon (look in the righthand sidebar—it’s the fourth one down), which is $35 for $70 worth of goodies from Marbles: The Brain Store. How are you going to argue with half-off brainiac toys? You’re not. I mean, unless you hate kittens and rainbows, or something.
Tea for two (or twelve)
The days are (finally) getting nippy, and that means I am rarely without a cup of tea or coffee. You know that for plain black tea I’m a PG Tips gal, but for other varieties of tea, one fo my favorites is Good Earth. For example: I feel vaguely virtuous when I drink their Super Green Tea, plus it’s yummy.
So right now, you can shop Amazon’s assortment of Good Earth teas and save 40%; just buy via Subscribe & Save for 15% off and free shipping, then apply coupon code GOODEA34 for another 25% off! That Super Green Tea comes out to about $1.67/box after discounts.
While I drink plenty of this stuff, myself, I also like to use it for teacher gifts, particularly if giving a little thermos (one of my favorite things to give) or travel mug. Just a suggestion.
Making Wednesdays worth shopping
Good morning! It’s Wednesday, and do you know what that means? It means it’s sale day at Kohls, of course!
They’re having their Christmas Kick-Off Sale, which is totally different from their regular Wednesday thing. Really. Stop looking at me like that.
Here’s how to rock the extras:
1) Shipping is currently free on $75+, or Kohls card holders can use coupon code FREE2MVC to ship any order for free,
2) Kohls card holders can also use coupon code XMASKICKOFF for 20% off any order,
3) If you don’t have a Kohls card, you can use coupon code NEW1599 for 10% off, anyway,
4) and finally, get Kohls Cash right now—$10 back for every $50 you spend.
It’s a good time to buy yourself something pretty to wear for the holidays. Or to buy a turkey roaster. Or whatever. I’m not going to tell you what to buy, because that would be weird.
Here, have $2
I feel the tiniest bit silly posting this, but it’s not going to stop me: I just noticed that Overstock is offering $1 shipping right now, which is a whole $2 savings over their regular rate. I know!
It’s certainly not a reason to run over there and go nuts, but if you were considering a purchase anyway, $2 could buy a pretty good chocolate bar afterward, I’m thinking.
No need to thank me.
Discover all kinds of things
As much as I’m a fan of the programming on the Discovery Channel, I may enjoy the toys and stuff at the Discovery Channel Store even more. Heh. And today and tomorrow, you can use coupon code INSIDER to save 25% on nearly everything, just because.
Today’s Daily Deal over there is a whole lot of Mythbusters wonderfulness, too. Do not get me started on my love of the Mythbusters.
Groupon now feeding my Lands’ End addiction
Oh, dear. Today’s Madison Groupon is $30 for $60 worth of merchandise from Lands’ End Canvas.
Half off the most stylish products Lands’ End has to offer? I’m in trouble. Especially because this deal isn’t limited to one per person—you can buy two.
If you can resist this one, you’re stronger than I am.
Hop on the Caboose
My kids are about a year and a half apart, and after much research, when my son was born we invested in a Sit-n-Stand stroller rather than a double—it allowed my daughter to hitch a ride without threatening her “big girl” status, and was so much smaller and more maneuverable than a double stroller.
Of course, back then, there was only one stroller like that on the market. And it wasn’t great, but we dealt with it.
Now there’s the Joovy Caboose, which is the luxury-stroller version of this classic, highly-rated, and currently just $100 shipped (only for the orange one—other colors are more) at Amazon. The seller on this deal is not Amazon (it’s still $150 via Amazon), but it’s a 5-star rated seller so I wouldn’t worry about that.
It’s the cheapest I’ve ever seen this one, and I’m only a little bit bitter it wasn’t around when my kids were babies. Just a little.
(Edited to add: Psssst! This also counts as an eligible Baby Store purchase to extend your Amazon Mom Prime trial by a month. Just sayin’.)
Put some shoes in your Tuesday
Have a hankering for some shoes, today? I understand.
Today’s deals at 6pm.com include 60% off of Uggs, and 70% off Clarks and Keen. There’s plenty of rugged footwear available, is my point.
Can’t find anything you need, there? That’s okay—head on over to Shoebuy and use coupon code EMLWARM10 to take $10 off your order (certain brand restrictions apply). Find a cheap enough pair and that’s a killer coupon.
I do love starting off the day with new shoes….
