Those who know me, know I'm a lover of any kind of travel. One of my favorite spots is Hawaii. I have been there on three different occasions and I still long to go back.

Superhero Cape Decorating Kit - $9.00

This is a cute idea! What kid doesn't love to dress up like a powerful super hero? It's all my kids do around here it seems! Now they can not only personalize, but decorate, their very own cape. This $9 (+$2.50 shipping) Superhero Decorating Kit comes with:
1 cape (you choose the color)
1 large star and a piece of self adhesive felt to cut out your own initial
1 glitter glue stick for decorating
various smaller adhesive backed felt shapes (stars, glitter stars, hearts, lightning bolts, basketballs, footballs, baseballs, soccer balls, flowers, and any other fun shapes we can get our hands on!)

Christmas idea? Have a super hero birthday party coming up? These would make a great party activity idea and a great party favor--the kids would love going home with their own cape and mask!

And now you can get an entire year subscription for just $5.99 (cover price $29.90). Click the picture below to get yours now (sale ends tonight)!

I love a good flat iron just as much as the next person. In fact, I can't live without a good flat iron. Not being completely fashion savvy, I honestly don't know enough about this brand, but someone out there might think this is a killer deal. It is for a KQC X-Heat Tourmaline Ceramic Flat Iron (1" inch) for only $143.95! (MSRP $249.95). Not too shabby when you look at the starting price. Plus, you get free shipping! Check it out. Price

These cute little pets-gone-pillows were all the rage last year for Christmas (and still are!) and my kids were lucky enough to each get one, thanks to Grandma. But Grandma paid about twice as much as they are offered here! They are only available for a limited time (Panda through today and Turtle through tomorrow) so get yours while they last! Your kids are sure to love them as much as mine.

Park City and Leather Wallet deals

I have recently discovered the beauty of staying in a vacation rental when our family travels, rather than a hotel. It is heaven! It is more private, roomy and with a size of my family, much more affordable than getting 2 hotels rooms. Sometimes I like to travel with another family and many of the homes on today's deal can accommodate that option. Today's deal is 20% off an Abode Park City condo or house rental. There are many to choose from and though I haven't personally stayed there, I'll just say these places look NICE! Need a place to stay for Fall break? How about Thanksgiving? Check it out. All rooms must be booked by Sept. 30 and used by Dec. 15, 2011.






Another great deal today is a Mundi Men's Black Leather Passcase Wallet. It retails for $30, but today is only $9.99! Hubby got a birthday coming up? Or need another manly stocking stuffer? How about just because you think he's super studly? Grab this genuine leather wallet before it's gone!

Cute Slap-On Gear Watch over half off--only $7!!!

I'm giving the deal-finding bug a whirl once again, just because I can't stay away--you know me! Check back often as the postings will most likely be random.

Check out this first deal that just became available! These Slap Watches are convenient, comfortable and super-cute! If you are like me, you know that it is never too early to pick up a few stocking stuffers--after all, Christmas is just around the corner! These retail for $15 each, but if you click on this link, you can get yours for only $7!!! Slap yourself silly, it's a stinkin' good deal!

Caribbean Vacay

Stop the presses, hold onto your butts and shake off the cobwebs--I'm back! After having the baby, life has been hectic and I just simply had to put things on hold. I'm sort of toying with the idea of making this a strictly travel deal site. Yes? No? What do you think?

We are talking an all-inclusive resort for only $10 per person per day, that includes, meals, beverages and entertainment in the Dominican Republic. What? That's what I said. Sounds too good to be true, but is legit. Details can be found at this link.
