I can’t escape the food today
I’m still full from yesterday, but the food, it seems to be stalking me today.
Like this: For the entire month of September, buy $39+ of qualifying Stacy’s snacks at Amazon and take $15 off with coupon code PITAFUN3. The Pita Chips are currently 42% off, anyway, giving you two cases of them for about a buck a bag.
Perhaps this will make it up to those of you who weren’t able to get in on last week’s animal cracker deal. (Hey, at least pita chips you can eat without feeling silly, right?)
I know, I know
If you ate half as much as I did yesterday, you’re not even going to want to think about food today. I’m sorry. Truly.
But I’ve got this here Restaurant.com code and some restaurants only ever have certificates available at the beginning of the month, so I thought I’d better share it just in case you’ve been waiting for an early-in-the-month code. Use LABOR to take 50% off your dining certificate purchase—that’ll give you $25 worth of dining out for just $5. The code is valid through September 9th, 2007.
This assumes you ever want to eat again, of course.
If you’ve been waiting for a deal on a Dyson
Today may be your lucky day.
I get emails asking for deals on a Dyson more often than just about any other request. Apparently it is the vacuum to have. (I wouldn’t know, because I have a Kirby. I love my Kirby, because it keeps my biceps toned. I turn up my nose at vacuums you can actually lift without breaking into a sweat.)
If you’re wanting a Dyson, go enter Dyson in the search box at Target and check it out: All Dysons are currently shipping free, and come with a $100 Target gift card.
Not enough for you? Oh, alright. Go ahead and use coupon code TGTENTZY to take another 10% off your order. With the coupon, the DC07s will be just over $359 ($259 if you count the gift card), and the top-of-the-line DC17 just over $494 ($394 if you count the gift card). (Pssssst! Apparently $80 from the purchase of a pink one goes towards breast cancer research, too. I could totally justify a purchase on that alone.)
And really, if you can’t celebrate Labor Day by buying a new vacuum, what else would be appropriate?
Labor Day savings
Are your fingers currently holding a nicely charred hunk of animal flesh to celebrate the holiday? No? Are they itching to do some shopping, then?
Save up to 70% at the Eddie Bauer Outlet
Save on just about everything at SmartBargains this weekend. (And don’t forget that the $25 off $50 Paypal promo is still going on.)
Doing some baby shopping? (I mean, baby gear shopping. Want Not does not condone human trade.) Save up to 50% storewide at BabyCenter’s Labor Day Sale, plus I believe they’re offering free shipping on all orders, plus you can save another 10% by using coupon code SAVE10MORE.
Get free Shipping on orders over $100 at Linens ‘N’ Things all week, plus they’re having Buy One, Get One Half Price on a bunch of stuff.
Over at ShopNBC, jewelry and watches are only $1.99 to ship, plus there’s other deals afoot; plus save 10% on any order with coupon code YWLDC when you spend $75 or more.
The EMS.com Up to 70% off Labor Day Sale is still going on. In case you love your grill so much that you want to camp out next to it, or something.
As usual, everything’s on sale over at Overstock, plus you can take an additional 5% off your order through that there link.
Have a great long weekend, everyone!
Take your lunch, do good
We all know it’s cheaper to pack your lunch than it is to eat out. (As a general rule, anyway. Do not send me email about your company’s cheap cafeteria.)
Normally I wouldn’t suggest spending $10 on a lunch bag, but today I’m going to. That’s because for every $9.95 you spend on one of these, $5 goes back to the Susan G. Komen Foundation.
Plus the bags are really pretty. So. Just something to consider.
Kid clothes for the weekend
Hey, did you know that for Labor Day The Children’s Place has marked everything in the Outlet down an additional 25%? Did you know that you can use coupon code FMR77 for another 25% off on top of that?
Well, now you do.
Friday, don’t fail me now
I want nothing more than to sit down and go through the Amazon Friday Sale, but I suppose I should get these kids of mine fed and packed off to school, first. Feel free to do some surfing on your own, or sit tight and I’ll be back with highlights in a bit.
Okay, I’m back. (Through the magic of technology, I’ll bet you didn’t even know I was gone!)
I see that Brigitte already has her eye on this cock trap, and I don’t really know how to tell her that I don’t think it’s quite what she thinks it is. (But if it’s any consolation, I’m guessing you could probably do something dirty with this bike stand
. Just sayin’.)
Warning: Don’t wear this t-shirt to work. (Unless you’re self-employed, Like me. I could wear it, I guess. In which case… hey!)
You almost never see Chacos sandals discounted like this. (If you’re unfamiliar, Chacos have excellent arch support, which is unusual in a sandal. Good for people with foot problems.) If you like those (and pay attention, because only some colors are on sale), I’d urge you to buy them from Zappos
and do a price match. You’ll save a little more, and have free returns if you need ’em.
The other moms at the PTA will make fun of me if I tool around on a big tricycle, right? Oh well. Maybe in thirty years.
Pardon me, as I haven’t said this in a while and I’m a bit excited. But: SCOOBA!!
A luxury palace for your ferrets. No, really. (And here’s one for your dog
, too.)
I’ve been wanting to try bamboo towels ever since I heard of them, and here they are at a great price. (Get your eco-friendly warm fuzzies and save some dough. Awesome.)
Ooooh, my favorite sheets are on sale again. Where else can you get 600 thread count king sets for under $30? Nowhere, that’s where.
I am both fascinated and horrified by these pillows. Do I want gel inside my pillows? I do not know.
Two words: gift closet.
I love this breakfast set, partly because it ships free, partly because it’s made my “Winsome Wood” and only a little because of the actual item.
Alright, I’m tapped. Happy shopping and stay safe this holiday weekend. (That means don’t got all hopped up on hamburgers and accidentally pay full price for something, yo.)
Big clearance at The Company Store
I love this place, high prices aside. But when it’s clearance time, I’m all over it. Check out The Company Store for Labor Day clearance, and don’t forget to click through to Company Kids for more of those great bargains on adorable stuff for the little ones.
I may or may not have just run upstairs to measure my daughter’s window for curtains. I plead the fifth.
Just a reminder
I’ve gotten emails from a lot of you about the Barnes & Noble Paypal deal that I posted last week. I don’t know whether to be flattered that y’all want to make sure I know about this great deal or offended that somehow I posted it but apparently none of you saw it. Heh. Regardless, please do go back to the original post to read the details if you like; the bottom line is that you can go buy $40+ worth of books at Barnes & Noble and take $10 off if you pay via Paypal and use coupon code D9U3D3W. It’s a great deal.
It would be an even better deal if I could find that misplaced gift card I know I have around here, somewhere. Have you seen it?
Just in case. . .
… you bought the table saw from the other day—or you or someone you love (maybe someone you live with who doesn’t always put their dirty socks in the hamper, even) enjoys woodworking—here’s a free subscription to Woodcraft Magazine for you.
(I’ve done magazines through this site before with no problems at all, and they always come.)
