Quick Post

Just thought I'd throw up, well, not THROW up, but PUT up some deals I just got.

RT airfare from SLC to Las Vegas, though not my favorite place to go, is now just $60 through Southwest.
RT from SLC to Washington DC (now there is a place I'd like to go!) is only just $157 through Frontier.
And Calgary, Alberta (my old home) is a mere $302 through United if you can travel next weekend!

There's some good deals for music-lovers: the top 50 albums of 2008 mp3 downloads on Amazon for only $5 each.

Ah, After-Christmas Sales. . .

I know it has been a while and I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. As I recover from strep (NO FUN!!!), I thought I'd take a look at the deals that are to be had.

Ann Taylor Loft has a 70% off sale, plus there is a section of sale items that are an additional 30% off. Nice clothes at a much-needed discounted price!

GAP is having a great sale and today is the last day for an additional 25% off with code SALE.

Old Navy is having a 75% clearance sale online only.

A great place for shoes, I've discovered, is a place called 6PM. It has almost everything you could possibly want and right now they are having some great sales. Just for an example, they have Privo (made by Clarks) Hop 2 shoes, that used to be $64, are now $13.80. Yes, I've tried these on at Dillards and yes they are very comfy. Anyway, check it out and browse to your hearts content. Most likely you'll get lost in this site since there is so much to see!

Christmas Frenzy

The top story headline in the Salt Lake Tribune this morning read "Retailers Crank up the Deals" so I guess for those of you who procrastinated, you are in luck!

Deseret Book has started their after-Christmas sale, including 50% off calendars, nativities, Christmas books, CDs, DVDs and more. So, get on to your nearest store or, if you need to, you could always pay more for a speedy shipping. Not to be competitive, but I also heard on the radio that Seagull Book is having a 40-60% off in their store as well. I don't see anything too excited on their website, but you can check it out for yourself here.

Everything at Aeropostale is 50-70% off, in-store and online.

Don't know much about it, but it has high ratings, the Smart-e-Bear, with software is on sale at Amazon for $19.99 (orig. $79.99!). Check it out here.

Old Navy has last minute 60% off deals. Also their doorbusters for tomorrow are their performance fleece blankets for $3. Neighbor gifts maybe? Perfect for that hard-to-shop-for person on your list?

Merry Deals, Merry Deals

I know with all I have to do in the morning, I won't have time to post much, but my sister-in-law just tipped me off to a site that's kind of like another site she tipped me off to before. Both these sites work by highlighting one deeply discounted deal at a time, for about an hour or until sold out I think. You have to check back frequently, but sometimes the deals are worth it! Since I'm a sports nut, they are sports-oriented:

Steep and Cheap is having a women's theme tomorrow, which means they will have only deals for women. Wahoo! Something for us ladies! So, check back hourly if you want to see what is highlighted.

The other site is Chain Love, which is mostly cycling gear, but some great deals, for all those cycling enthusiasts.

I LOVE when Restaurant.com runs these deals. They have $25 gift certificates (or other amounts) to various establishments in your town, marked down to $10, then with the code SANTA, you get 80% off, making a $25 gift certificate only $2! There are some restrictions, so read the small print, but all in all you can't beat it!

Monday's Edition

Shopping has slowed, maybe all you have left are stocking stuffers or, like me, just a few teacher/neighbor gifts to assemble. Anyway you have it, there are still a few deals to be had and most places are offering great shipping deals in order to get it to you before Christmas.

Today only, once again, American Eagle is having a buy one, get one 50% off on EVERYTHING and, this is the best part, FREE SHIPPING! It's just for today.

Also, Old Navy is offering free shipping on any order right now (with promo code JOY)and an extra 10% with promo code ONHOLIDAY (on orders more than $75).

I saw some great deals in the Walgreens ad. Quite honestly, every year this is where we end up getting most our stocking stuffers and wrapping paper. You can also get any sort of gift card you want from here. Strange yes, but can you say one-stop shopping? Thought I'd mention my favorite coupon deals: My kids LOVE to color and coloring books are 3/$1, girls tights are 99 cents, Colgate toothbrush or toothpaste is 99 cents and Blistex 3-pack lip balm 2/$5 or Chapstick 2/$3. If you don't have the ad, walk into any Walgreens and they will have a bundle right by the door, with the coupons you need.

A while back I posted a deal for Orlando, round-trip from SLC. It's not down to $99 like it was, but it got down to $136 today. Still not bad. It is through United, but you can also book it through Tavelocity or CheapAir. Other good deals include from SLC round-trip to New York for $215 (US Airways) and $98 rt to Vegas (Southwest).


The Deseret Book deal for day 5 of their 12 Days of Christmas is 43% off "The Mortal Messiah" by Bruce R. McConkie for today only, making it $19.99.

Shoes.com is having a HUGE 50% off sale this Saturday only. On top of that, you can also use this 10% off coupon code: CATALOG8. It goes from 5 a.m. to midnight.


Okay, so I've watched this Kota dinosaur go from $299, to $199 and now $99 in the matter of weeks. I feel bad because it's actually a cute toy with some cool movements, but it really was the wrong year to have it come out, with the recession and all. I think the company must not be selling as they predicted and now they are dropping the price right before Christmas in hopes of selling a few more. So, it is now $99 at Toys R Us with free shipping. It is also found almost everywhere else for about the same price now.

Wonderful Wednesday Deals

Deseret Book is doing a 12-days of Christmas, with a deal everyday. Today is day 3 and I'm loving the deal, just because I love Elder Maxwell. It is his book entitled "The Promise of Discipleship", hardcover, for a mere $5.99. The catch is that it is online only and for today only and, of course, shipping. Still looks like a great addition to any Christian library.

REI, what can I say, I'm a fan! If you have ever browsed their outlet, there are some really good deals. They are offering an extra 20% off just until tomorrow with the code OUTLET25. Instead of paying shipping, you can also opt to have it sent to the store for free. I've done it before and it works great!

Also, for today only, you can print out a coupon for Old Navy for an extra 40% off in-store, on one item.

Here's a Borders coupon for 25% off plus free shipping. Use this code IPL1255 at checkout.

Lost anyone?

Okay, I'm totally excited about the first STL today! I'm a HUGE fan of the LOST TV series. I was saying to my hubby just the other day that it would be fun to own all of them. Amazon's deal of the day is seasons 1-3 (4 just came out too, but is not included) that were regularly $180, now only $58.99. That's a huge chunk off. Alas, still to much for us to bite off now, but I thought I'd pass along the love for any other LOST fans out there--I know you're out there!

Macy's has a cute BCX big button trench coat that used to be $68, but is now only $9.99 plus shipping. There are only size M left, however, but it's cute nonetheless, don't you think?

For the campers out there, Boscov's has a 3-piece set of cast iron skillets for $9.97 plus shipping (originally $50).

My sis was saying she wanted more children's books; well, here's a deal for her: Weekly Reader Publishing is offering 10 hard cover Caldecott winner classics for $24.95. Free shipping code is 134424, item number WRB532. They work out to be about $2.50 each, and that's hardback!

I thought "Cyber Monday" was last week, but apparently KMart decided to have another one. Various deals today only and free shipping over $29.

American Eagle is having free shipping today and tomorrow, plus use this code for an extra 20% off: 64592371.

NICE STLs TODAY!!

After a lull in good deals this week, I'm happy to post some nice deals for you! Hold on, here we go:

Gymboree is having 25% off sale on their entire site, including sale items. Free shipping too! Cute clothes at a much cheaper price.

Today is the last day for an extra 25% off at Leapfrog. They also have 40% off on some bundles and some nice clearance items. Free shipping over $50. I love Leapfrog!

Need jeans? Saturday only doorbusters at Old Navy include $12 jeans for the entire family. Plus, sweaters up to 40% off.

Who runs? I love Nike Shox, but normally they are about $100 or more. Finsih Line has them on sale, men's and women's, some for $60, BUT there is a coupon code GOOGLE20 that will give you 20% off, making them $48. You can get free shipping over $75.

Timberland is a high-end outdoorsy brand that can be pricey. They are having a friends and family sale for 40% off with code FFRIEND1 on everything.

Because my daughter wants an iPod for Christmas (she's 6! can you believe it?) and I didn't want to spend what iPods cost, I've been doing research on MP3s. I'm looking for a 2 GB, but a sale came up on a 8 GB that I thought I'd tell you about because normally these are crazy expensive. It's the Sony Walkman MP3 is actually rated really good. Normally $140 almost anywhere, you can get it half off for $70 with code WLKMN50 with free shipping.

Keep posted, it's early so I may find more deal to post later.

PJs, Games and Muppets

Traditionally we will open one gift on Christmas Eve. In our family, it is a new pair of pajamas. Many others have this tradition. If you have yet to get your cozy pair, Figleaves is having a great sale on pjs, like 90% off! AND they are offering free shipping with code WEL5.

A favorite family game, thanks to my Grandmother, is Scrabble. Amazon has the Diamond Anniversary Edition for $14.99 (orig. $35). It looks like a cool edition, so for those of you who don't have it yet (especially in my extended family) go get it!


Need anything at Joanns? Here is a 50% off coupon code: EFD341 They are having a 3-day sale right now.

I debated whether to put this on, but as I listened to some of the songs, and watched my kids dance in delight, it brought back memories from yesteryear. Amazon also has The Muppets: A Green and Red Christmas MP3--the entire thing for a dollar! So, go here and see if you likey.

Update on below

I guess the one-day only free shipping deal is not only good at Gap, but also Old Navy and Banana Republic! Happy day today! Old Navy is also offering a 20% off total purchase with code SAVENOW.

Also Finish Line is also having a free shipping day today only. Here's a 15% off code for sale items: COMEBACK
