Baby your baby’s behind
Hey, Amazon decided to do the big Pampers/Luvs/Kandoo deal again in June. That’s great news for those of you with tiny heinies still in diapers. (Er, I mean, tiny heinies you’re diapering. I’m not implying that any of you are undersized and/or still in diapers. Um. Moving on….)
The best deals, of course, are on these Pampers products, where coupon code PMPRSJN9 gives you 15% off and buying via Subscribe & Save gets you another 15% off and free shipping.
Of course, you really can’t put a price on not having to lug cases of diapers home from the store, too.
Clearance on clearance
The only thing I like better than a clearance section is the chance to take additional money off of the clearance prices.
Through June 9th (that’s tomorrow!), you can take up to 30% off already discounted Disney merchandise during the Disney Outlet Summer Clearance Event. They’ve got PJ Pals down to $5.99/pair, and those are eligible for an additional 25% off, making them just $4.50. (PJ Pals are great for skinny kids. They are very snug-fitting pajamas probably only suitable for string beans like my scrawny offspring.) Anyway, there’s lots of choices, all eligible for extra savings.
You can still use code SHIPTODAY for flat $5 shipping on your $89+ order, too. (It’ll stack with a percent off coupon.)
And remember—if you’re planning a Disney trip, picking up those “souvenirs” now, on sale, to break out at the park could save you big bucks. Just sayin’.
Take a free Spin
Do you want to keep up on the music scene? Or do you—like me—mostly want to tell those kids to keep off your lawn, but you know a (ahem) young person who’s very interested in music? Then go ahead and sign up for a free two-year subscription to Spin magazine.
This way, when you tell ’em to get off your lawn, at least they’ll have some good reading material….
Gimme a D! E! A! L!
It’s been a while since we did a brag post; what’s the best deal you’ve gotten lately?
Yesterday I was surfing through the Saturday deals and decided that as much as I pink puffy heart my Lands’ End swimsuit, I should probably snap up a second one to get through the summer. And I wanted a cover-up for the pool, too. So I went looking and found some tankini separates I liked (on sale) as well as a simple cover-up (on clearance). The total was $71 plus another $10 or so for shipping, which isn’t bad for what I was getting, but do you think I was going to pay that?
I had the free shipping code, so that took care of that.
Then I went and redeemed $40 of my Discover Cashback Rewards (what I usually refer to as “play money”) for a $50 Lands’ End gift certificate. Total out-of-pocket cost for me for $106 worth of merchandise (from a store that guarantees it forever), delivered: $21.
It was a very good Saturday.
Saturday deals
Oh, whoops. Wasn’t I supposed to come back with some deals, yesterday? I think I was. But in my defense, I saw something shiny. (Okay, that’s probably not a very good excuse.)
If you’re doing a little bit of redecorating this summer (I don’t know about you, but as soon as school lets out, I generally lose my mind and decide to do something “simple” like some sort of 10-step faux finish process on the walls in a room, and there goes my vacation…), don’t forget that Home Decorators Collection offers thousands of items with free shipping, every day. And if their low prices aren’t enough for you, there’s always Home Decorators Outlet, where plenty of fancy home goods can be had for a song.
Or—if what you’re needing for the home runs more to bedding and towels—go shop Domestications and for the entire month of June, coupon code D9FAFF15 will give you an additional 15% off their already low prices.
If this weekend brings with it the crushing realization that you haven’t eaten out in forever, then I suggestion you head on over to Restaurant.com and use coupon code DINING for 60% off your purchase. You’ll get $25 dining certificates for just $4 out of pocket, but more importantly, you’ll get a night off from cooking.
Still stumped on what to get Dad for Father’s Day? The Discovery Store has some great ideas, plus you can pretend they’re educational, or whatever. (Yes. Deadliest Catch is totally educational. So far, I have learned that I do not want to be a crab fisherman.)
If Dad’s more of a hands-on type, check out today’s Amazon Gold Box Deal—it’s a Hitachi Compound Miter Saw for just under $100. I don’t know why that’s good, but my husband’s eyes kind of rolled back in his head in ecstasy when I showed it to him.
Can’t stomach the thought of driving out to the pet store and hauling home bags of food on your Saturday? For a limited time, PETCO is offering free shipping on your $49+ order, and saving pet-lovers everywhere from having to hit the mall. [Edited to add: I’m sorry, apparently food is excluded from this promo. I am making very angry eyebrows at PETCO right now. Sorry about that!]
Maybe you’re waiting for an engraved invitation, or something, but I’d say it’s well past time to get yourself a new swimsuit. Sometimes waiting pays off, though—all weekend long, Lands’ End Swimwear Sale – Up to 50% off.swimwear is up to 50% off at Lands’ End, plus you can use code SUMMER with PIN 7896 for free shipping on your order.
As much as I love my MacBook, I have an itty bitty crush on those adorable little NetBooks I see everyone carrying around these days. And when you can get one for just under $200, it’s verrrrry tempting. Very tempting indeed.
I’m off to the Farmer’s Market, but I will be back later with a contest. We haven’t had a Saturday contest in a while, and I think it’s time.
It’s raining, it’s pouring. . .
… the old man is shopping the Amazon Friday Sale….
What? Is that not how it goes? I thought it was.
Last week’s sale was a little weak. I’m hoping for better, today. Let’s take a look.
[Well, I made it through both Shoes and Electronics (Dear Amazon, That word, I do not think it means what you think it means. Just call it “Office Supplies,” you’ll feel better. Love, Mir) without finding anything. It’s not looking good.]
A couple of weeks ago I would’ve scoffed at the idea of towels being extra-absorbent, but now I’m eying this 6-piece towel set for $24.99 (not a bad price per towel) and reading the reviews which swear they really are very absorbent. Why? Because the cheapo towels I bought for camping actually seem to be water-resistant. Yes. Moral of the story: Sometimes it’s cheap for a reason….
This looks like a decent price on a memory foam pad if you’ve been considering one. (Or maybe, like me, you know a bed really needs a new mattress, but you’re wondering if a hundred bucks might buy you a few more years before you have to replace it.)
Hey, my favorite Anolon set and favorite Cuisinart set are still on sale. It’s good to know that you could at least get a great deal on pots and pans from Amazon, even when the Friday Sale is kind of off.
The professional-grade KitchenAid stand mixer is down to $299 again. I purr just looking at that thing.
I wasn’t sure what a Sea Beam Lantern was, so I clicked. Waterproof flashlights that float! at 3 for $15, I might have to call it a camping expense.
It looks like Amazon is going to continue with 50 MP3 albums for just $5 each for the month, rather than just five albums every Friday. That’s good news for music lovers because, hey, ten times the music (and savings) goodness!
And don’t anyone let my husband see that today’s Gold Box Deal is a weed whacker thing. It’s a good price, mind you, but those things sort of freak me out. Don’t ask.
I’ll go round up some other daily deals for today after I’ve had another cup of coffee. Or after I have a nap. Depends on how far it turns out to be to get to the kitchen….
It’s like a sign
Been hankering after a little something from The Company Store, but haven’t wanted to pay the shipping? Today’s your lucky day! (Well, actually any day between now and June 11th. Details.) You can use coupon code T9FFD for free shipping on any Company Store or Company Kids order.
It’s almost like some divine force is trying to tell you that, yes, you really do need those towels. I mean, between the clearance price and the free shipping, it’s practically an engraved invitation!
Get your dailies here, hot off the screen
Today I’m going to be lazy and lump a bunch of these today in a single post. You’re welcome.
Looking for daily deals? Here you go!
Amazon’s Gold Box Deal is the Garmin nuvi 780 GPS unit for just under $200. Now, I know, I just listed a $50 GPS the other day; this, however, is the latest/greatest/all-the-bells-and-whistles GPS, and if you want a good deal on a super-fancy one, this is it. It’s got everything.
Kohls‘ daily deal is a junior’s ruffled hoodie in a variety of colors for just $9.99. (My daughter already lives in these things, and she’s only 11.) Today’s the last day for $4.99 shipping at Kohls, and Kohls charge card holders can also use code MVC5222 for free shipping and code MVCPERK15 for an additional 15% off, too. No Kohls card? You can still use code NEW5696 for 10% off your order.
Drugstore.com has so many “deals of the day” I’m sort of wondering if there’s any inventory that isn’t on sale. In addition to all sorts of sales on things, they’re also offering a buy one, get one half off on many popular products.
As for 6pm.com‘s daily deals, well, I guess I’ll say what I always do. Blah blah blah shoes blah blah blah. That’s about right, right? (Also—Nine West! Love them!)
I’m not overwhelmed by any of Target’s Daily Deals today, but there’s a pretty nice men’s watch in the mix, at least.
That should keep you busy for a little while.
Mark your calendars
Hoping to have some good family fun this summer, preferably for the low cost of, I don’t know, free?
It turns out that many national parks are offering fee-free weekends this summer, and all you need to do is take note of when they are. The first one is Father’s Day weekend, and what would Dad like more than a hike through nature?
True, it’s not generally all that expensive to access state parks, but if you could do it for free instead of paying, why wouldn’t you?
But of course there is
Lonely? Confused? If you are, I can’t help you with those things. Sorry.
But if you’re about to make a purchase at Lands’ End and you’re thinking to yourself, “Self, I wonder if there are currently any free shipping promotions I could use,” then that I can help you out on.
Right now use code SWAN and PIN 6682 to get free shipping on your entire order, regardless of size.
And really, free shipping should be enough to alleviate any loneliness or confusion, shouldn’t it? It should.
