Last day for doorbusters at Kohls
I don’t know how I almost missed this one, but it’s another perfect time to shop at Kohls and reap aaaaaaaall the rewards. Check it out:
There’s thousands of doorbusters happening through the end of today. Pro tip: Still missing a few items for your college freshman? There’s tons of dorm deals, including lots of twinXL bedding.
Earn $10 of Kohls Cash for every $50 you spend (after coupons).
Shipping is free to your local store for pickup, or on $75+ for everyone to your home, or Kohls card holders can use code FREE4MVC for free home shipping on any size order.
Everyone can use code BACK2SCHOOL for 15% off, or Kohls card holders can use code SLUSHIE for an additional 30% off.
Am I a sucker for Kohls during these promotions? Absolutely. I spent $100, saved $180 between sales/coupons, and I’ll get $20 Kohls Cash for next time. Hard to argue with that.
Back-to-school cool for the tweens/teens
Nothing I do seems to sway my teen daughter from her love of all things Aeropostale. (And it’s not that I don’t like their stuff, it’s that I feel like an inordinate percentage of their stuff is simply an advertisement for their store. I don’t want a store name taking up the entire front of my shirt. Also, get off my lawn.)
Anyway! Get ready for back to school and make your kids happy—shop Aero today and you can take advantage of their “Employee Discount” pricing: code BTS30 will take an extra 30% off of absolutely everything. It even works on Clearance! This is a way to get them what they want without paying crazy prices.
Shipping is free on $75+. I’d like to suggest you spend less, but if your teens are anything like mine, yeah, good luck with that.
Get your guitar on
I’ve got a great option for budding guitar stars, today….
Check out the current offering at Electronics.Woot—they’ve got an acoustic Fender Squier bundle for just $99 + $5 shipping that has everything you need to get started. For comparison, that same bundle is currently $140 at Amazon, with an average 4.5 star review.
This isn’t a top-of-the-line model, obviously, but it’s a solid offering at a decent price, which makes it perfect for teens/beginners/hobbyists without having to spend a lot.
I’ve got your end-of-summer books right here
Whether you’ve never read the Outlander books or you haven’t read ’em recently, you’d be hard-pressed to beat this 7-book bundle on Kindle for just $1.99 at Amazon. (That’s the whole series except the last book.) Don’t believe me? With over 1,100 reviews the average score is… 5 stars.
These books are great. And cheap. Grab them before they change the price.
Up to half off, today only
I know that some of you are in the final countdown of getting kids ready to head off to college. *gulp* I am so completely paranoid forward-thinking that I am already shopping for my kid’s dorm… even though she’s not leaving for a year. (You think I’m kidding. I’m not! Hey, I’m taking advantage of the sales now.)
Anyway, I’ve been doing quite a bit of department store cruising around the last couple of weeks, and many of them seem to be doing one last sales push right now in the hopes of enticing just a bit more spending. Sneaky, but I won’t turn down the savings. Like, today (Monday, August 3rd) only, shop at Bon-Ton and take $50 off your $100+ order with coupon code ZAUG03SAV50. There’s a code on the site for free shipping on $75+, or you can stack code AUGBDAY for free shipping on $25+, too. (Or get free shipping if you have Shoprunner.)
If you’re not shopping for dorm stuff, no problem—$50 off is a great excuse to buy just about anything. Exclusions do apply—Bon-Ton always has a ton of exclusions with their coupons, like Yellow Dot markdowns or certain designer brands—but it’ll work on plenty of items, don’t worry.
Free shipping at Target? Yes, please!
If you’re starting to think about back-to-school (sad trombone), hopefully this one will ease your pain a little—right now Target is offering free shipping on any size order, plus they’ve got a ton of school supply deals (hello, 6-pack of Elmer’s purple-disappearing-glue sticks for $.99), plus when you spend $25 on qualifying supplies, you’ll get a $5 gift card.
Skip the crowds, grab the deals, get a bonus to spend later. I can find no flaws in this plan at all… I mean… other than the fact that my high schoolers don’t actually need glue sticks….
Thinking ahead to fall?
It was with great sadness this morning that I pulled out my younger teen’s next pair of sneakers. I’d been hoping the pair he was wearing would make it through the summer—and it was so close—but ’twas not to be. This was also a good reminder that soon we’re back to school and not too long after that, it’ll be getting cold again.
There’s a ton of new sale items over at UNIQLO, but of particular note are the “ultra light down” jackets and vests for both men and women—these are the lowest prices we’re going to see until the end-of-winter clearance, I’d guess.
Of course, they’ve also got cute t-shirts for the teens (or you; I don’t judge) and a variety of other goodies, too. Worth checking out. Shipping is free on your $50+ order.
Now’s the time for Chromecast
If you’ve been thinking about nabbing a Google Chromecast—the simple, inexpensive way to stream web content on your TV from your computer—today’s the day to do it: Right now Amazon is running a bonus promotion where you can get the $29.99 dongle and pick up a $10 Amazon gift card for free. That’s basically like getting 33% off, and it’s not like you’ll have to look too hard to find something to spend that gift card on later.
If you don’t have a Roku or an AppleTV, this is a cheap alternative. This is also a great way to make yourself very popular with a kid heading off to college next month.
Fun furniture for the kids
Looking for some bedroom furniture that the kids will love, but won’t break the bank? Try this—go on over to Home Depot and search on legare. You’ll find deep discounts on a variety of fun kids’ beds, desks, dressers, and other bedroom items.
My kids are too old for these things, but I’m pretty sure my daughter would’ve cheerfully sold a kidney for that purple car bed, back in the day.
Vamp up your Vera
If you love all things Vera Bradley, now’s the time to shop—they’re offering free shipping on all orders, plus free monogramming on eligible items.
They have some simply darling baby clothes and a bunny lovey that would look like very expensive gifts even though they’re marked way down. Just a suggestion.
