My Father’s Day Gift

I have been trying to come up with a unique Father’s Day gift for my hubs that wasn’t too expensive and then I saw this offer from Groupon today!

There is a full day white water rafting trip available in my city for $59 today- normally $119.

My husband is going to love this (and thank goodness he doesn’t read MFA) and $59 is totally worth a very unique experience.

So I am excited and if you haven’t checked out Living Social or Groupon you might see what offers come up in your city!  I have a feeling they will have a lot of Father’s Day themed activities in the next week.

Barnes and Noble 3 Books for $9.99 Sale

Barnes and Noble is offering selected children’s and adult books at a great price right now- get 3 for $9.99!

It looks like shipping is about $6 unless you spend $25 in which case it is free.

You can try codes: Y8H7P3C for 15% off  or Y3V4U3X for 30% off if you have other shopping to do.  I don’t think it will work for the 3/$9.99 sale.

This might be a good time to select the summer reading books for the kiddos!  Don’t forget the free books you can get from Barnes and Noble and Borders !

Crocs has free shipping right now plus they have a new 15% off code- CROCSFRIENDS15.

They have several sandals and flip flops that are marked down as well as a lot of different styles in the outlet.

The new spring line from Crocs is also pretty cute- like these Genna shoes.

Catherines.com: $20 off $25 Order plus Free Shipping!

Well there is a really deal available right now at Catherines.com. They are offering a $20 off a $25 purchase promo code: 777006560.

Now this is a plus size store but I tested this on the wallet and socks above and it did work for me. The items I selected had free shipping and it looks like you can also select free ship to store.  (EDITED: I think the shipping might be $7 unless you pick it up in store.)

They have Buy One Get One 50% off jewelry as well.

So head on over HERE to have a look- my grand total when I tested this was $5.41 for both items!  You can use Ebates for 3% back.

As always with these deals there is a chance they will cancel orders but I would just cross those fingers and hope for a nice surprise in the mailbox!

Thanks Bucktown Bargains!

Super Hot Stationary Deal is Back!

I was just writing a note yesterday and kicking myself for not ordering more cards the last time Expressionery had a sale!

If you missed out last time this is such a good deal- you can head over to Expressionery and have a look at all sorts of custom stationary items.  Take an extra 60% off AND get free shipping with promo code: DB2010.

Now this includes clearance merchandise so you can get little note cards for as low as $6.72 shipped!  You can customize everything with your name, company name etc..

Last time I made birthday invitations, blank note cards from our family and different ones from the girls as well as some for MFA- oh and thank you notes too!

These either come in a nice box or a plastic sleeve (depending on the quantity you order) so they will make a nice gift as well!  I think this would be a perfect inexpensive gift for any weddings you might have this summer!

This was part of my order from last time and I was pretty happy with the overall quality.

PS:  I go through tons of cards so I ordered 50 of the ones above and my total was $15.73.  If you order 25 it should be about $6-7.

Thanks Bucktown Bargains!

6pm: Designer Sunglasses Sale & Miz Mootz Shoes!

I will warn you now these are absolutely not super cheap deals but I like to post items that are just good deals every so often for those that want to splurge a little.

Today 6pm.com has designer sunglasses on sale- these are not inexpensive but I think they are a great price for the brands you get like Theory and Lucky brand.  I was thinking a teenage girl that is graduating might really like a great pair of sunglasses.  You can click HERE to have a look.

Beyond the Rack has a ton of different sales today but I was looking at these Miz Mootz shoes.  They have several different styles priced around $45 which is more than half off.  These things sell out FAST though so you have to hurry.  You should also get a $10 credit off your first order which covers the shipping cost.
