It’s a one-day sale
(So you need to shop quick, because after today there won’t be another one… until… the next one day sale….)
Anyway.
Today, Tuesday, January 8th, 2008, SmartBargains is having a one-day sale!
Eh, this probably isn’t very big news. But they do have some 600 TC sheet and duvet sets for under fifty bucks. That might be of interest.
Sign up, get free photos
You’ve probably noticed that just about any online photo service gives you some free photos when you sign up. Well, if you’ve already used up your freebies over at Shutterfly, Winkflash and the like… go check out Clark Color. You get 30 prints free for signing up, which you can redeem on any order—even an order of just one print. So sign up, order thirty-one prints, apply code SHIPITFREE, and you’ve got 31 prints for a grand total of $.11.
I’m just sayin’
I’m not particularly interested in a political or ethical debate on this one, so take the information for what it’s worth and use or discard as you see fit. I’m just offering it up as a matter of observation.
Did you know that Walmart takes returns without a receipt? Any item they carry, they’ll accept as a return at the current store price. They’ll give you store credit on a gift card.
If, say, you ended up with a killer toy deal from Amazon that you didn’t need but would cost you more to return than you’d recoup, that might be something you’d like to know.
Who’s a widdle tax deduction? You are!
Did you have a baby in December 2007? If you did, you have until Wednesday (January 9th) to submit a picture of your adorable last-minute tax deduction to TurboTax’s Cutest Tax Deduction Contest for a chance to win a $5000 savings bond.
Now that would be an awesome tax deduction….
Save big on bigger sizes
If you’re wanting some clothing from Lane Bryant, you’re in luck. They’re having a huge sale online, right now, plus you can use coupon code 025007343 to take $25 off your $75+ order, $50 off your $150+ order, or $75 off $225+. (So much math! Ack!)
If you have a local store and feel like the ultimate bargain is worth your time and gas money to get there, go print out this coupon for $15 off $15+ and use it at the store.
Good savings, either way.
Bonus buys? Yes, please!
Oh, I know. Who wants to go shopping at Disney so soon after Christmas? You probably don’t. That’s fine.
But just in case you do, (and I’m not saying you should, but they do have lots of pajamas on sale, which are great anytime, not to mention Halloween costumes, which, hello, how great would it be to be done with that in January?) they’re having this big Bonus Buy thing going on right now.
So here’s the deal: They’re having their Semi-Annual Sale, which means stuff is already marked down. Then you can take another 50% off your total with coupon code BONUS50. On top of that, orders of $50+ can be shipped for just $5 with coupon code SHIPFOR5, which can be stacked with the percent off coupon.
After all of that, the stuff costs about what it should. Heh.
Ship it for free, two days only
Good morning! Wow, I am having trouble getting back on schedule. This getting up early thing is highly overrated. Urgh.
Anyway, after a cup of tea or three I discovered that today and tomorrow (January 7-8, 2008) you can ship your entire Eddie Bauer order for free, regardless of size, using coupon code JANFS8. They’re still having their big Ultimate Sale, too. Good stuff.
I need to look and see if they have an hour or two of extra sleep on sale….
Some Saturday deals for you
I’ll be taking down Christmas, today. But Mir, you say, it’s already January 5th! Haven’t you done that already?? And then I lovingly reply to you, “Oh, look—something shiny, over there! Okay!”
I’m glad we can have these sorts of deep conversations.
Anyway, while I’m putting away the ornaments and such, you may wish to check out one or more of these:
Don’t have cable on your TV? In 2009 the world’s going digital, you know, and if you don’t plan to upgrade to cable, you will need a set-top converter box. Each household is eligible for up to 2 converter box $40 coupons to defray the cost of purchase (which is projected to be between $50 – $70). Don’t forget to apply if you’re still using an antenna.
Through January 6th, 2008, take 40% off your Restaurant.com purchase with coupon code THANKYOU. While it’s true that later in the month there will be larger discounts, many restaurants release a set number of certificates each month and will be sold out later on. Besides, are you really going to argue with $25 worth of dining for just $6?
Making a big purchase at Overstock this weekend? Through Monday only, you can take $25 off your $500+ purchase through that there link.
We got Planet Earth for Christmas, but if you didn’t get the DVDs you wanted this year, check out the Discovery Channel Semi-Annual DVD Sale going on now. DVDs start at just $4.99 (and if you buy those in multiples of 5 you can get one free—5 DVDs for just $20), and shipping is free on orders of $75+.
Over at Sierra Trading Post, take 10% off your $100+ order through February 5th, 2008.
And if you’re hankering for something over at Lands’ End, their Winter’s End Savings Event is ending in another week or two, so get on over there to spend your gift card(s) before everything goes back to regular price.
Now. Does anyone know where I put the wreath box?
No, we shan’t be giving up the deals
Several of you expressed concern that maybe I would stop posting deals in favor of general advice stuff. Au contraire! For example, you’ll have to pry the Amazon Friday Sale from my cold, dead hands. I’m trying to shop a little less, but I’m not dead, people.
I’m not sure why this Black and Decker power station is in the home improvement section, seeing as how it’s a boom box, but the fact that you can plug a laptop into it has me intrigued. (Yes, should the world come to an apocalyptic end, I want to be able to check my email….)
Have you gone compact fluorescent, yet? If not, toss a couple of these into your cart.
These are seriously testing my “no extra shoes” vow. Hrmph. These aren’t, because I’m sure I’d break my neck in them, but that’s a heckuva good price for tall boots.
I kidnapped my mother’s KitchenAid mixer while on vacation, but if you’re still looking for one, $189.99 for the 5-quart (new, not refurb) is a great price.
The Circulon starter set is down to $119.99, again, plus if you add enough other pieces to get it up to $200, you can get a dutch oven for free. Awesome deal for someone looking to replace all their cookware.
I hope you’re having an awesome Friday, everyone! Next week I’ll resume a more regular posting schedule, now that we’re not driving all over creation to visit everyone we’ve ever known. Carry on.
I am swearing off shoes, but you don’t have to
It’s true. I got some really cute shoes (for cheap, natch) in 2007, and I’ve decided not to buy any more shoes for the foreseeable future. I have plenty and last month I bought each of the kids their next 2 pairs of sneakers. So we’re good. Instead, I’ll buy more cookies.
(Kidding! I’ve also vowed to eat better. I hate 2008 already!)
Anyway. We’re well-stocked on shoes here, but if you’re needing some new ones, you should know that right now Shoebuy is having an end-of-the-year blowout sale (though you’ll need to dig through the sale section to find the deals), plus you can use coupon code ENDYEAR07 through January 7th, 2008, to take an additional 20% off of your order.
I’ll just be over here, snacking on some celery.
