Alas, there doesn’t seem to be much of a post-Easter sale frenzy. I was hoping for some good deals today, and the bargains, they are disappointing me.

Thankfully we can always rely on Amazon to have some sort of sale for no particular reason. Today it’s the Kitchen and Home One-Day Sale! Woo!

Click through the tabs to see all the options. Like the Friday Sale, there are some awesome deals and some not-so-great deals. Have a look if there’s something you need.

Here’s a quick deal tip before I go collapse in a ham-and-chocolate stupor from the day’s festivities….

Need silverware? Amazon has three Wallace sets—complete service for 8, including serving pieces—marked down to $39.99 (84% off).

Wallace Twill silverware
Wallace Riviera silverware
and
Wallace Montre silverware

In fact, I hear that if you eat Reese’s peanut butter eggs with a knife and fork, the calories totally don’t count. Think about it.

It’s another big sale weekend at Kohls, with all manner of bonus buys and markdowns through Saturday, April 7th. They’ve also got the $5 shipping going on right now, although that also ends when the sale does (and then their shipping goes back to some insane amount), so hurry up.

Sweeten the deal: Use coupon code MARPICK15 for 15% off when you use your Kohls Charge, or coupon code NEW6925 for 10% off for everyone. (Psssst! Kohls sent out coupon flyers recently. If you have a Kohls Charge it’s possible you received a code for even more than 15% off. You should check.)

Ah, the Friday before Easter. The birds are singing. The sun is shining. And I need to shovel my driveway. (Global warming, my a**.)

Oh well. At least I’ll have the Amazon Friday Sale no matter what the weather.

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Do not buy these cookies. They are deadly delicious and it’s impossible to eat just one. And the fact that you can buy two 25-packs right now and save an additional $10 with coupon code BAHLSEN5 just makes it more dangerous. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

The bike lift is back! Suitable for small misbehaving children! (Not really. Don’t do that.)

Not so much a concern here in the Land of Snow, but perhaps you need some shorts for your guy? And what man doesn’t want clothing that comes in the color “tarmac?”

Everyone should own a stick blender. Yes, everyone. However, the wine cellar is optional.

I am oddly drawn to these glasses. I don’t know why. Maybe they remind me of Weebles, because they don’t have stems.

My beloved and I looked at titanium wedding rings, but I didn’t know there was also titanium cookware. Pretty cool, as it’s dishwasher safe (my main requirement in cookware these days).

I’m not a crafter, so I swallowed my tongue when I saw the price on this sewing machine, but then I saw the original price and suddenly it seemed okay. Sort of.

Finally, no Friday Sale would be complete without really nice sheets.

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone! Don’t eat too many jellybeans!

I apologize for the lack of posts this morning. Guess which of the following things I have?

1) A foot of snow.
2) No power.
3) No internet.
4) Children home from school.
5) Did I mention no heat?
6) All of the above (pass the chocolate).

Ding! Ding! Ding! Very good. We are currently hanging out at Panera. Good times.

Anyway, you are probably not cold and slushy, and you probably want some deals. I’ll see what I can do.

Start with this: From now until its official release on April 17th, you can listen to Year Zero (the newest album from Nine Inch Nails) in its entirety right here. It may not be your kind of thing, but maybe it is. Or maybe you have teens who’d be into it. Or maybe it’s of absolutely no use to you at all and you wish I was still stuck at home, in which case I am lobbing a snowball at you right now.
