Okay, okay, twist my arm
For those who’ve been asking: The very best deal I’ve gotten in a while.
The GPS hits keep on comin’
Still looking for a great GPS unit for not too much money? Check out today’s Amazon Gold Box Deal—they’ve got the Magellan RoadMate 1412 for just under $100 shipped. Great reviews, and a price that’ll be hard to beat.
Not that you can put a price on not having to frantically call your husband to report that the place you’re looking for must have vanished. (Not that I’ve ever done that….)
Saturday deals
I’ll tell you a secret, Internet: I am not really so interested in bargains today. My family is off to meet a dog this morning, and I have a Very Good Feeling about her. (Cross your fingers for us, if you’re so inclined.) Nevertheless, I don’t want to leave you hanging. So here’s a few suggestions to keep you busy while I go talk in an annoying high-pitched voice.
Goodness, but there’s a wide variety of awesomeness happening at 6pm.com this weekend. Ben Sherman footwear for him and her, David Tate and Aerosoles for her, Dekline for him, Primigi for the little ones, and Spy Optic sunglasses.
In the Target Daily Deals you’ll find a princess screen house (one of those things you never knew you needed until you saw it, I suspect), as well as a great deal on a Digital Concepts “soundcase” backpack (the speakers are built in—great gift for the teen in your life).
And speaking of daily deals, Barnes & Noble has jumped on the bandwagon as well; there’s a whole page of special deals!
Want some Lee Jeans? All orders ship free for the month of September, plus there’s a sale going on. (The site is loading a little slow for me; be patient.)
Want fancy workout wear without the fancy price? Check out the up-to-60% off deals going on right now at Athleta. Love them.
The buy 1, get 2 free on vitamins sale at Puritan’s Pride has less than a week to go—it’s time to stock up, if you haven’t already.
There was such an overwhelming response to the latest Restaurant.com promotion, they’ve extended it! You now have through the weekend to use coupon code NINETY for 90% off, which means that a single dollar will get you a $25 dining certificate. Why wouldn’t you try it for a dollar?
For a limited time, everything ships for free at Fashion Bug, no code necessary.
I’ll be back with a contest this afternoon, and maybe a new family member. (Hey, it’s not every day I get to say that….)
Friday, I’ve got your back
Sometimes it doesn’t take much. Remember that incredible deal on Izze drinks? I bought two cases and have been packing them in my kids’ lunches on Fridays. That’s all it took to make Friday the most awesome day of the week for them, and of course it’s always the most awesome day of the week for me because of the Amazon Friday Sale.
Personally I think last week’s Candela lights are a little more versatile—you could just as easily leave them in your living room as in the nursery—but this week’s deal is fun for the kids and just $26 shipped.
Admittedly, as we search for a pet I have dogs on the brain, but I am totally throwing one of these in my cart today. Just because it makes me laugh.
Cheap, high-quality queen sheet sets? Check! (Or if you want to go to 1,000 thread count and/or want plain white sheets, get those for just about $12 more.)
Amazon must have a surplus of these Aerobed overnighters; this week the blue one is on sale.
Awww, look—it’s a 2-pack of imitation Snuggies. For when you care enough to cheap out on something creepy.
These rocks glasses are only a few dollars off (though it’d be hard to complain about 4 glasses for $15), but they’re so pretty. I sort of love them.
Once again, it’s everybody’s favorite breadmaker for under $90. And my blender for $52, which is more than I paid, and I just made our morning smoothies in it. (I just called into the other room, “How’s your smoothie?” and my son replied, “Gone!” so consider that a testimonial.)
Personally I think this wine pouring set is a little… ummm… fussy… but it’s down to under $10 and eligible for the 4-for-3 promotion, so might be worth it if you need little hostess gifts for some serious wine-drinkers as we head into the holiday season.
Eco-friendly disposable diapers? We didn’t have those back in my day. But they do now. Size 4s are down to $39.99 for the giant pack, or $33.15 with Subscribe & Save. (That’s quite a bit cheaper than the Seventh Generation ones, if you’re comparing.)
Don’t forget that there’s 50 different MP3 albums for just $5 each this month, so it’s a great time to pick up some new tunes.
Have a great Friday, everyone!
Disney markdowns
In addition to the Halloween costume extravaganza they’ve got going on over there (already? really??), right now the Fall Sale is on at The Disney Store. Shipping is still a flat $5 on your $89+ order with coupon code SHIPTODAY.
(Which—if you’re a nicer mom than I am—is just a couple of Halloween costumes.)
Don’t forget that if you’re lucky enough to have a trip to a Disney-themed park planned in the foreseeable future, this is a much cheaper way to pick up “souvenirs.” Who cares whether you bought them at the park? The kids sure don’t.
More under-gear
There’s all sorts of deals going on at One Hanes Place right now, which means it’s a great time to get some workout wear or a few of your favorite bras or whatever.
Through September 11th, 2009, use coupon code 611671 to ship your entire order for just $3.99, regardless of size. Think of it as a very reasonable “shopping in your pajamas” tax.
Full of delicious wheat (and sugar)
I’m no longer bitter about the whole wheat-free thing. I mean, yes, I sort of hate you as you sit there eating a cookie without a care in the world, you thoughtless monster, but… oh, wait. I’m still totally bitter.
Anyway, if I could still have them, I’d totally be jonesing for something from David’s Cookies, where for for the entire month of September you can use coupon code FSLS9 for free shipping and an extra 10% off your order. This is a great way to get a little pick-me-up or thank-you gift for someone, and then maybe you could just invite yourself over to share.
Enjoy your wheat. Don’t mind me, I’ll be over here just eating some grapes, which I’m sure are just as delicious. No, I’m not crying. There’s just something in my eye. Stop looking at me.
Heard it on the radio
Shopping the Fall Preview sale at The Company Store, or maybe checking out the clearance? Buy whatever you like, and then ship it for free (no minimum order) with coupon code RADIO.
This is my very favorite promotion from them, because there’s often killer deals to be had on stuff, and then the shipping totally harshes my mellow and causes me to use phrases like “harshing my mellow.” And we don’t want that.
One last 9-themed savings
Today Kohls is offering—what else?—$.99 shipping on every item.
And I think code SEPT15EDT will give 15% off to everyone, not just Kohls card holders. Sorry, that one’s expired. Kohls card holders: Use code MVC9983 for free shipping, and code AUGUST15 for another 15% off. No Kohls card? NEW1370 gives everyone 10% off.
As always, there’s plenty of deals to be had. Thank goodness.
Go Banana(s)
Another today-only deal: Spend $99+ at Banana Republic, ship your order for free with coupon code SHIP99.
The bad news: You have to spend $99.
The good news: It’s Banana Republic, so, that’s like, what, two tank tops…? Kidding! I’m just kidding. There’s some cute stuff in the sale section, at prices that won’t make you choke, I promise.
