Last day to save and ship for free
Just a reminder—today is the last day to shop the twice-yearly Disney Sale and get free shipping on your order if you buy any Toy Story item.
As an aside, as much as it pains me to drop $40 to see a movie in the theater, I must reluctantly admit that Toy Story 3 was totally worth it. And I wasn’t crying, there was something in my eye. Ahem.
Look good, maybe win big?
Amazon is really trying hard to promote their revamped clothing store, so right now, if you sign up to receive Amazon Clothing Store emails, you might win $1,000. Really!
Now, I hate junk email as much as the next person. So I’m not suggesting you sign up with the email you use all the time. In fact, I always recommend that if you do a lot of online shopping, you should have an email account just for that, to keep the endless store emails all in one place. So whether you use a special “shopping” email address or something else, you might want to brave a few emails for the chance to win.
Once more, with feeling
Why yes, the ever-ongoing Monster Sale at Children’s Place continues, same as it always does, but the good news now is that they’re doing special savings for the upcoming holiday.
Through July 5th, spend $50+ and you’ll get 20% off your order with code JULY4TH.
I’m not telling you what to do, but it’s around this time that I start doing my shopping for next year. Just sayin’.
Too busy for shoes? Never!
Wow, I am having such a frenetic day over here, I nearly forgot to check 6pm.com! I didn’t go there until just now, so of course they have a ton of my favorite brands on sale today (and I nearly missed it). Reef, Steve Madden, Nunn Bush, Via Spiga, and more.
It’s almost like the universe is trying to tell me something. I can almost make it out… something about slowing down… finding balance… and having really, really pretty shoes.
One day to save shipping
It’s a one-day-only chance to save: Today (Tuesday, June 29th, 2010) Coldwater Creek is offering free shipping on every order with coupon code WHH7836. Even better, everything in the Outlet is an automatic 30% off their already reduced prices, so if you shop there you stand to find some real bargains between the discount and the free shipping.
Not bad for a Tuesday, right? (Is it me, or does it still feel like Monday? Not quite sure what that’s about….)
Beat the heat
Living without air conditioning? When I lived in New England it was always the Zen exercise of the summer to strategically place fans all over the house to maximize airflow. (Here in the south, I have air conditioning. But I do sometimes miss those cool nights when you could lie in bed and enjoy the breeze coming in the window.)
If you’re in need of a bit of wind power to keep cool this summer, check out this 18″ pedestal fan at Amazon. It has three speeds and a remote control, and if you look at the default price and the “More Buying Choices” column you can see that the regular price is around $45 shipped, but choosing to buy it directly from Amazon will get it shipped to your door for just $26.53.
I never had a fan with a remote, before. You kids today have it so easy.
You know it’s time
Look, we all do it; we forget the admonitions of our mothers (“What if you were in a car accident?”) and we continue wearing those stretched-out, faded, and elastic-snapped undies because… they were at the bottom of the drawer and we haven’t done the laundry yet and really, who cares?
To my mind that’s just sort of inviting a bus to come run you over in the crosswalk. I’m just sayin’.
Scoop up these savings and do your whole family a favor; replace everyone’s underwear and socks now, while you’re thinking about it. (I try to do a clean sweep before school starts, and how cool would it be to have it out of the way before July, even?) Right now everything at Hanes is 20% off, plus you can use code 107697 to ship your entire order for just $1.99. [Updated to add: Okay, looks like you can also use code DOTOMIDSC for another 10% off, but you have to enter DOTOMIDSC first, then 107697, then DOTOMIDSC again to make them both work.]
Think of it as stacking Murphy’s Law in your favor.
Diapers and wipes and savings, oh my!
Got a kid or two in diapers? Amazon’s been great with the diaper deals, lately, and now they’re offering additional savings on just about everything—just shop their selection of diapers and wipes and enjoy 15% off automatically, then another 15% when you buy via Subscribe & Save (which gives you free shipping, too). That’s 30% off their already discounted prices, and you never even had to leave the house.
You know, back in my day, to get prices like that we had to clip coupons out of the paper and then go to the warehouse store. And I tell you what, my dinosaur didn’t have air conditioning, either, you whippersnapper.
(Sorry. Diaper deals make me emotional.)
Start celebrating fashionable men
Sure, the 4th of July isn’t quite here yet, but why wait to celebrate the well-dressed man? Jos. A. Bank thinks you should have the entire week to shop at a discount and celebrate independence.
Okay, maybe celebrating independence by buying some dress slacks is pushing it just a little. But whatever; a sale’s a sale!
Absolutely everything is marked down this week, with clearance an additional 25% off, too. Free shipping on $175+, so you may as well talk him into a couple of new shirts while you’re picking up that suit. Just sayin’.
More storage, to go
Someone—and I am not going to say who, though he lives in this house and otherwise makes me very happy—has decided we need more shelves for storage in a couple of storage areas around the house, and that’s all good and well, but that stuff is expensive. And for some reason he’s not swayed by my well-reasoned arguments against these purchases. (“They’re expensive! And nobody’s going to see them, anyway!”)
But look at this: Amazon has these chrome storage carts on sale for just $22 apiece (look in the “More Buying Choices” column on the right to get it for $22 direct from Amazon), and they’re eligible for free shipping with Prime or Super Saver Shipping over $25+.
That we can afford, even if it’s not going to ship for a couple of weeks.
