Savings on athletic gear

Love sporting goods? Have a little Christmas money burning a hole in your pocket? Eastbay’s Year End Clearance is going on now.

Sweeten the deal: Use coupon code EMEB6222 for an additional $10 off your order of $10+.

Most of the stuff in the outlet is 50% or more off, already. It’s a great time to scoop up a deal on some fancy sneakers or whatever.

Half off, through Thursday EDITED

Now through Thursday, December 28th, take half off your total purchase at Coldwater Creek with coupon code WJH4532. Through December 31st, take 70% off with code WJH4537! Remember to check out the outlet for the best deals.

(Sorry for the light posting the last few days; we’re recovering from the holiday and languishing with germs, now. I’ll try to be back on top of things ASAP.)

They don’t get any cheaper than this

Remember all of those flannel sheet deals at Amazon? Now you can get Pike Street flannel sheet sets in any size for just $5.99 with free Super Saver Shipping.

Sizes and colors are limited, but there’s not too bad of a selection left.

I never thought the day would come when I’d be grumbling that I’d paid too much when I spent $16 on a set of king sheets.

Fa la la la restaurant.com

For those of you who love the cheapie certificates from Restaurant.com, now through December 29th you can take 70% off your total order with coupon code CHEERS.

If you’ve checked them out before and not been able to find restaurants in your area, keep in mind that merchants are added all the time; it may be worth checking back.

If you’re brave enough to shop today. . .

… there are certainly some deals to be had. I, myself, could not be paid enough to venture into a mall today, but that’s me.

If you’re headed to Macy’s, you might want this 15% off savings pass. Consider it my small and inconsequential after-Christmas gift to you.

Oh, and Target is not only 50% off on Christmas stuff today, they’ve begun their annual toy clearance at most stores. Just in case your gift closet needs replenishing.

Merry Christmas one and all!

From my house to yours, a very merry Christmas to each and every one of you.

(Not Christian? That’s okay. Save an eggroll for me, please.)

I hope everyone is enjoying family and friends and just generally having a wonderful weekend. Should anyone in your house want to keep an eye on him, remember that you can track Santa’s progress tonight as he covers the globe. (Now there‘s a guy who knows how to shop!)

Baby go zoom zoom

I know, I know; I said I was all done shopping. And I am. (Believe you me. I went shopping last night with someone who wasn’t yet done shopping *coughMENcough* and it reminded me of why I always finish shopping early—preferably from home, in my pajamas.)

But I was poking around and happened to come across this Combi stroller. Not only is it a great price at 35% off—because the Combis and Peg Peregos and other high-end strollers are almost never marked down—but it’s a really neat design. Sort of half-stroller, half-jogger. Highly maneuverable.

Anyway, ’tis a nice find if you’re in the market for such a thing. Now get off of the computer and go finish wrapping your presents.

I never want to shop again

I daresay today is the culmination of a frenzy of bargain-hunting and last-minute gift getting. Me, I’m done. Done. I’d like to take some time off from shopping and just, I don’t know, rest.

(But I would also like a maid and a billion dollars; sometimes we don’t get what we want.)

Anyway, I can’t skip the Amazon Friday Sale. I’m pretty sure that would be un-American. Besides, I flipped open the sale and beheld an omen.

That’s right. Right there—staring me in the face!—was the MIR scarf. (Hey, it’s cashmere!)

This looks interesting (great reviews and 56% off) especially for the post-sugarplum season. Nothing says “I had a merry Christmas” like shiny teeth! (Okay, that may have been reaching, just a little.)

There’s that Circulon set again, under $140 after coupon HOHOSAVE. I would tell you what I paid for my Circulon back in the day, but I don’t want to start crying. (Seriously? $140? That’s an insane deal.)

Anyway, poke around if you’re so inclined. Me, I have some wrapping to do….

In-flight snacks

Mmmm… snacks.

Hello Lovely Pretty Mir!

My question pertains to a family trip (9hour flight) we’re taking mid-January with three kids under age 9 — one with a peanut allergy. I need some suggestions for snacks in their carry-ons that won’t have them all sugar-high half way through the flight, and that won’t cause a need to break out the Epi-pen. Every kind of snack/cereal bar I look at is either loaded with high fructose corn syrup, or may contain peanuts.

I remember you mentioned packing your own snacks when you went to BlogHer, and I recall Monkey was a no-nut kid as well. So I’m hoping you’ll have some great suggestion that I’m obviously overlooking. I’m limited to regular supermarkets — no Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods within an hour of me.

Any other flight tips are welcome as well!

Thanks,
Nancy

Start your car from the couch

This is a great one for people who 1) like gadgets or 2) are lazy.

(Do not send me email saying you’re not lazy and really in Timbuktu or wherever you live, a remote car starter is a necessity. I’m sure you’re not and that it is. I am just chatting, here.)

The deal of the day at Graveyard Mall is a Bulldog Security Remote Car Starter Kit. It comes with everything you need for just $39.99, and it ships for free today only.

You can use it to start the car while you’re busy spraying on your unmentionables. Ha!
