Bundle up and play hard

Is there a special someone in your life who is, you know, nuts and therefore looking forward to either a nice romp in the snow or climbing a mountain or somesuch foolishness? I bet you could find them something great over at Eastern Mountain Sports.

(Me, my favorite winter sport is sipping cocoa by the fireplace. Feel the burn!)

Right now their Friends & Family sale is on, and you can take 20% off of almost everything with coupon code SP4FF through December 4th, 2007. That’s in addition to their closeouts sale currently going on, and the current GearBucks promotion ($20 card for every $100 spent). It’s a veritable savingspalooza, even if looking at their site does just make me tired.

All aboard!

Okay, this is a deal only in the sense that it’s 50% off, not in the sense that it’s actually cheap. Still, if you are as charmed by this Lego holiday trainicon as I am, now would be the time to grab it… it’s marked down to $44.98.

I’m done shopping for my kids, but if my son found this under the tree I’m pretty sure he would become delirious with glee.

I can always use some hairapy

Oh, wait. Maybe it’s that I can always use some therapy. I’m always getting those two confused!

Regardless, if you’re feeling like you could use a little hairapy, go get some free Sunsilk.

They’ll send you a trio of Hydra TLC products, which sounds like an extra-caring version of a monster from Greek mythology, to me, but what do I know. (Clearly I need hairapy.)

Free shipping at J. Crew, today only

Whoops, I somehow missed this one when it came out a couple of days ago. Through today only (November 28th, 2007) ship your entire J. Crew order for free with coupon code FS1126. No minimum necessary, so if you had your eye on one little thing this would be the time to snap it up.

Sorry for the late notice. The deals! They’re overwhelming me! Can’t… keep… up…. (Oh, okay. You caught me—I have been having a life on the side, here. It won’t happen again.)

. . . on a bicycle built for two

Tandem bikes are one of those things I always look at and think would be kind of neat to have, but it seems like a ridiculous extravagance.

Today I’ve been looking at this Kent dual drive tandem bike, which is down to just $199 with free shipping. That’s less than you can get a regular bike for, most of the time. The reviews are mixed (the main complaint seems to be difficulty putting it together), so definitely read through them if you’re considering it.

My nearly-eight-year-old seems determined to never learn how to ride a bike. I wonder if we could do family rides if I put him on the back of one of these? On the other hand, maybe I should save the $199 for further therapy for him. Decisions, decisions….

Buy 1, Get 1 at Catherines

Looking to stock up on some plus-size clothing? The big Buy 1, Get 1 Free sale at Catherines is on now through December 4th, 2007. The usual exclusions apply (read the fine print), but much of their inventory qualifies. There’s over 500 items in their clearance section, alone!

Make it even better with a code: 776874307 gives you 20% off an order of any size, 776874406 gives you $20 off $75+, and 776874505 gives you free shipping on orders of $70 or more.

Free shipping for a limited time

Novica is offering free shipping on jewelry and gifts, and boy do they have some neat stuff. I’m not even sure how to describe them. World crafts? I don’t know; just check it out.

Make it a sweet deal with a coupon: Use NGS555 for $15 off $30+ or NOVICA243 for $10 off with no minimum.

You can sort by price so it should be easy to maximize your savings. Just don’t blame me if you find yourself falling in love with all sorts of things over there.

Get cash instead of magazines

If you’ve been shopping at Amazon lately (and lord knows I have; how exactly did we survive when every purchase meant you had to go to the store and actually walk around looking for things?), you’ve probably noticed that a lot of items are coming with a bonus magazine subscription when you spend a certain amount.

I don’t know about you, but I have enough magazines.

When you get your reminder email to redeem the offer and select which title you’d like to receive, down at the bottom in itty, bitty fine print it gives you the address to which you can send your order receipt for a refund of the magazine subscription price. That’s like a nice little $10 rebate you weren’t expecting. (Lose the email? No worries. The fine print for Home & Garden eligible purchases is here, and for Apparel & Shoes it’s here.)

Don’t just blow it off; it’s money you’re entitled to. Make sure you get it.
