November 2010

There are two deals available to get your holiday cards:

You can get 50 holiday cards from Vistaprint for $12.99.  Shipping is free.  This is only for 4×8 cards and they are quoting 7 day shipping!

That works out to about .25 a card.

**Vista tips- be careful you don’t add anything extra to your cart and at the end you actually need to select free shipping.  They will have it set to the slower shipping which is $6.

UPDATE!!!! Vista just sent out an apology note that the free shipping is not working.  If you hold off on ordering until tomorrow they should have it corrected.

You can also get 25 free cards from See Here with code: 25cards.  Each additional card is .48 and you will pay shipping of $5.  That works out to .20 per card.  I actually ordered about 27 from See Here and they arrived in less than a week.  You can see how my cards turned out here.

UPDATE: It looks like you can order 24 cards from See Here instead- use code 25cards and the total will be $2.50.  (Thanks For the Mommas)

Either way, tomorrow is December so time to get those orders in!

Groupon has a fun offer today.  You can get a $50 voucher to Dormzy for $25 and shipping is free.  Dormzy is primarily a food service company that specializes in sending care packages of essentials to college students.

At first I saw top ramen and Cheez Its on the site and I wasn’t that excited about this offer.  But then I noticed they carry laundry soap and pharmacy items as well.

So you might take a look, basically everything is half off and you get it shipped free.  So some prices are good and some are terrible.  If you do have a college student or an older kid on your shopping list, they might like one of these vouchers as a gift.  My 20 year old nephew just moved into his own apartment and I am thinking this will be a perfect birthday gift for him.

They do carry a few Olay, Herbal Essences and Secret Deodorant.  So you can also use the $50 voucher to buy those items and then submit the $20 rebate to P&G!

This could be a great deal for those that don’t use coupons:

{Deal Idea}

Buy 6 Olay Body Lotion at $4.99= $24.54
Buy 3 Herbal Essences Shampoo at $3.79= $35.91
Buy 2 Herbal Essences Conditioner at $4.09= $44.09
Buy 2 Secret at $3.29= $50.67

Pay with your $50 voucher, you will have spent $25 on the voucher plus $.67 and tax.
Then you get $20 back in a rebate, so the net price is $5.67 + tax or .44 an item

You must spend all $50 in one trip and the voucher expires Sept 2011.  Anyone in any city can purchase this offer.  Just log in or register at Groupon and click on view more cities and then  head over to Lexington.

Thanks Savvy Spending Meghan!

Reader Chi Chi passed on a great deal.  She found 30 packs of Duracell Batteries on sale at Home Depot for $5.00.  There is a $1.50/1 Duracell Batteries, exp. 12-31-10 (RP 11/14/10 #2) coupon available that would make them $3.50.

Now that is flat out a spectacular price.  I happen to be snobby about batteries so to get a name brand pack for this price is quite a deal.

This is featured on the last page of the weekly ad dated 11/25.  It is for AA batteries only.

*There is a chance some stores will have run out of inventory.  You might call your store before you head out just to be certain!

Staples and Office Depot both have free after rebate batteries as well.
