Can you see me now?
A company I recently fell in love with, Snapily, is giving you the chance to make a free greeting card with them to see for yourself how cool they are. Snapily allows you to make 3D picture-changing items like we thought were so awesome back in the day, when you’d sit there tilting your book back and forth and running your fingers over the ridged plastic and wondering how did they do that.
Anyway, it used to be a promo in connection with Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, but even though that’s ended, you can still go make a free holiday card. So pick your pictures and go get ready to be wowed.
Perfect for your pampered pooch
Okay; I know the last time I posted a deal for Pet Food Direct many of you scoffed and sneered and said their prices weren’t very good. Now that I have a dog of my own (have I mentioned that? I mean, today?) I’ve checked them out a little bit more, and here’s what I found:
1) Their prices on premium foods are pretty competitive. True, the mark-up on the low- and mid-grade foods is large. But if you’re buying a 6-star dog food, for example, the prices are good.
2) Shipping often kills the deal.
But fear not! Through tomorrow (September 30th, 2009), shop Pet Food Direct and use coupon code PET3683 for free shipping! That’s particularly handy if you’re buying expensive food, or just nice if you want to pick up a toy or a package of treats that’s on sale, too.
What are you going to do now?
After you spend some of your time volunteering to help others, what will you do next? Maybe you should go to Disney, on them, of course.
I think this is a nice little promotion. It’s not going to pay for your entire vacation, but kudos to Disney for trying to promote volunteerism!
I know her secret
Today (September 29th, 2009) only, Victoria’s Secret is offering free shipping on any order—just use coupon code FREESHIP.
I’m not a big fan of their stuff, but maybe you are. And why pay shipping if you don’t have to?
[Her secret is plastic surgery, by the way. Obviously.]
Impeccable taste, sir
So I’m browsing through the Buy.com deal alerts, and I come across this Swiss Legend Legato watch and think to myself, “Self, that is a very nice looking watch for a man.” But it’s $155 on sale, and I’m wondering if that’s a reasonable price for that watch. Because I’m a cheapskate, you know, and $155 for a watch seems a little steep to me.
So then I clicked on over to Amazon to compare, and what do you know—it’s $600 there.
Not a bad discount on a self-winding watch, I suppose.
Because Fall means boots
Summer is officially over, which means that despite the continuing heat and humidity here in the south, it’s officially time to start swooning over boots. (What? Didn’t you get the memo?) I may have to wait a few more months before I can actually wear them, but whatever. Details.
Today at 6pm.com they’ve got three pages of select Sudini styles marked 70% off, including a wide array of gorgeous boots just right for celebrating Fall. And if you don’t live down this way, you may even get to wear them soonish.
Yes, please
Time to eat out again! Through the end of the month (just a couple of days from now; can you believe it?), use coupon code CHEF at Restaurant.com to take 80% off your certificate purchase. That means you’ll get $25 worth of fine dining for just $2 out of pocket, and a whole new excuse to spend a night on the town.
Mmmm… my favorite kind of food: The kind someone else cooked and will clean up after!
Snakeskin and journals and woks, oh my
It seems that the Target Daily Deals writer is taking a cue from the folks over at Woot; today they’re urging you to “Wok This Way” for their featured deal (a wok, obviously). It’s not a bad deal on a cheap wok, if you’re in the market for such a thing, but the real bargains, I think, are the BCBG snakeskin pumps (rowr!) and the pink leather “pirate’s life for me” journal—perfect for your favorite edgy, angsty teen.
Don’t forget that the daily deals always come with free shipping, which makes ’em even sweeter.
I might need those shoes. Just so that I can pretend I’m a lot cooler than I actually am.
The best gets even better
If you’re shopping for an electronic, chances are you’re going to check out Best Buy. And why not? They carry darn near everything, and their sales are often really good.
Today’s the last day of their big Fall Sale event, and if you order online you don’t have to jockey for a spot in the parking lot or lug a large box to your car. Orders of $25+ ship for free, too, so you’re saving aggravation and gas money. Win-win!
If you need me, I’ll be over here, drooling over the flat-panel TVs. Which I’m not buying. Because my crummy television refuses to die. (Not that I’m bitter….)
Wiitastic!
Been waiting for a sale to pick up a Wii? After 2+ years at $240, discounts are finally here!
Order your Nintendo Wii console from Amazon today for just $200 shipped, plus get a $25 Amazon gift card.
I mean, yes, there may be an even steeper discount closer to the holidays, but this is a pretty good deal. And having it sitting up on the closet shelf well ahead of Holiday Shopping Madness trumps the extra $5 you might save later. Just sayin’.
