Find the perfect furnishing touch
Furnishing touch, get it? Finishing touch, furnishing touch…? I’ve had a little extra coffee today.
Anyhoo, today if you shop at Home Decorators Collection for everything your home needs, you’ll get an extra 25% off and free shipping on over a thousand already-marked-down items. The sale ends at midnight tonight, so hop to it if you’re interested.
There are more items in my house from HDC than I should probably admit. Every time they have a big sale like this, I find something else we need, and usually at a ridiculous discount.
All the cool stuff, no mall overwhelm
If I’m being perfectly honest, sure, Hot Topic is not exactly my favorite store. Some of the stuff they carry is… ahhh… interesting… and not at all my style (and maybe would evoke a “Over my dead body!” if my teen asked). And the store at the mall is just… loud. Crowded. Unfun.
But days like today—when they’re having a flash sale and everything is marked an extra 30% off (even clearance)—I can get behind a little online shopping. This means I can get that one super-cool t-shirt my kid is coveting, plus maybe some stocking stuffers, and it’s inexpensive and I don’t have to go to the mall. Awesome.
Shipping is a flat $4.95/order. You should be able to make that up in savings, easy.
Get a great little fan, cheap
The last time I posted this Honeywell TurboForce Fan, it was down to $14.79—its lowest price ever, at the time—and I went ahead and bought one for myself and it was promptly commandeered by one of my kids (and has been in faithful service ever since). Today, it’s down to $12.79, the new lowest price ever, and it’s an even better deal.
This is the perfect little bedroom fan if you need one. At this price, it’s a no-brainer.
It’s like spotting an endangered animal
On these rare occasions when 6pm.com releases a coupon, I always feel like I just saw a snow leopard in the Himalayas. So rare! So beautiful!!
Okay, fine, maybe a snow leopard would be a little more exciting. But 6pm coupons are good, too.
Anyway! Shop today and you can use code HQ7TOJYEK7 for an additional 10% off your order. It’s not a huge amount, sure, but on top of their already clearance-worthy prices, it’s nice. Plus they’ve got everything the kids need to dress for back-to-school and now with the extra savings you don’t have to feel guilty about scooping up a little something for yourself, too.
[Note: As with all 6pm coupons, this one is limited to a certain number of uses—usually 10,000—or until midnight. Order sooner rather than later to make sure you get the deal.]
Bag better savings at Bloomies
Yes, sure, most of the time, Bloomingdale’s is too rich for my blood, but they do have pretty awesome clearance, plus right now you can use coupon code SUNSHINE to take an additional $20 off every $50 you spend on already-reduced merchandise. So, shipping is free on $150+, and you’d save an extra $60 on a $150 purchase. Nice!
There is a list of excluded items/brands, but if you can find stuff that’s covered by the additional discount, it’s a pretty sweet deal.
Still not schooled on Schoola? Here you go!
Surely by now you are sick of me singing Schoola‘s praises, but seriously, if you haven’t tried them yet, you’re missing out.
Right now—in addition to the $15 credit you’ll get just for signing up through my link—they’re offering 50% off your entire order and free shipping with coupon code BACKTOSCHOOLA. That’s crazy, given that many of their prices are already 80% off retail. I’ve ordered with them probably half a dozen times, now, and in addition to great deals and money going to schools, I’d say we’ve only had maybe 2 or 3 items that were misses out of around… oh… 30.
Why, just now I placed another order with the coupon. It’s true, sometimes I get clothes for myself, but mostly I stick to buying stuff for my rapidly-growing and adult-sized children who seem to need new clothes constantly. I spent about $38 ($37.99, if you must know) on 10 items; the kids are getting 1 skirt, 1 pair of jeans, 4 pairs of shorts, 3 shirts, and 1 jacket. That’s better than I can do at Goodwill, frankly. (Plus my son is going to look great in that skirt.) (I kid! It’s not his size!)
For the graphic novel crowd
If you have teens who are into graphic novels, you may share my frustration in finding good ones at reasonable prices. (Not that we don’t love the library, of course.) Right now Amazon has Wytches Volume 1 (that’s issues 1-6) by Scott Snyder for just $4.99 shipped if you have Prime.
That’s a great price on a well-reviewed collection by a very popular author, and to me, it’s a no-brainer. One caveat: This is not for the younger or easily disturbed crowd. Wytches is horror and is characterized in one review as “the most terrifying comic you’ll ever read.” So, you know, proceed with caution. If it’s your jam, though, the price is unbeatable.
Even more secondhand bargains
Love all the deals for online gently-used clothing? Check out Twice today—the day before they are acquired by eBay—and you’ll get a $10 credit through my referral link, plus you can use coupon code FINAL30 to take an additional 30% off clearance items.
I’m finding the site a little slow, but there’s definitely goodies to be had. The coupon will work through 11:59 p.m. tonight, Pacific time.
Stock up on essential back-to-school gear
I know, some of you aren’t back to school for another couple of months, but back to school will be here before you know it, regardless. And everyone—even the grown-ups!—needs new socks and undies, right? Right. So hop on over to Hanes right now for their biggest sale of the season on essentials and get everyone outfitted before school starts and Junior fesses up that he can only find three pairs of underwear, and really, he has no idea what happened to the other ones.
Shipping is automatically free on your $60+ order, or use code 89404 for $1.99 shipping on any size order.
Stop fighting for the charger
Now that we’re a 4-phone family, it seems like everyone is muscling in for charger space in the kitchen (no matter how many times or ways I try to arrange alternate charging “stations” elsewhere in the house). My latest attempt at a solution? This Anker Multi Port USB Wall Charger Charging Station Portable Power Adapter, which has great reviews and is currently at its all-time-low price of just $5.99 delivered from Amazon (if you have Prime). It’ll charge 4 USB devices at a time, so everyone can plug their phones in, or we can charge a couple of phones and an iPad and a Nook or whatever. The point is that one outlet now gets me 4 USB cords and rapid charging, so maybe my rotten children won’t constantly be squabbling over who gets to plug in.
[And while I’m at it, here’s a pro tip for cord squabbles: Buy different color cords. It completely ended the whole “But that’s my cord!” shenanigans (we even used to flag the white cords with different tapes and my teens started accusing each other of tampering with it). We have these and I’ve been very happy with ’em.]
