Sports Illustrated for Kids $5 for a year!

I just got back from a weekend away, and am trying to catch up. I've found one quick deal that I will share, then I will come back later with a lot more. I noticed that the 1 year subscription WITHOUT auto-renewal is the same price, even though the one that comes up in the link has the auto-renew.

Enjoy!

Great Kids' Ride-On Deals!

I noticed this at the top of the movers and shakers list on Amazon, its sales have increased 1000% today.  Looking to see if it was a great deal, I noticed tons of other great ride-on toy bargains, so I thought I should share.



If you look on the Wheelbarrow link, you will see the following deal.  Buy any Fisher Price items from this list... and get this cute little Fisher Price vehicle free.  It looks like some of the items are $11-15 each, the same price as the freebie car.  A lot of the Fisher Price items are 30% off right now as well.

Firecracker Bargains

I'm going to be very busy this weekend with the 4th coming up, but I notice there are a lot of great sales and coupon codes out right now. I'll leave you with a roundup of all the deals from my inbox.

• 20% off everything and free shipping from Woman Within with code WW45388 through July 5.
• JCPenney huge online sale and free shipping over $49 with code 49FLARES.
• Not a sale, but I don't have time to make another new post.  Free Kindle app for the PC.  And some Pride and Prejudice free, which should link you to the other free classic books.
• Some Toys R Us coupons, and they're doing free lunch kit with backpack purchase.  I was in Target today and they have the school supplies out already! 
• Don't know if you can stack coupons at Kohls.com, but they sent me two codes.  TOPSECRET will give you 20% off everything, and SEND2ME for free shipping when you spend over $75.
• Two good Borders coupons HERE and HERE
• July Casey's coupons for the locals.
• Use code GAPJULY4 for 25% off at gap.com
• Old Navy's having a huge sale, and $1 flip flops July 3 only.  Print this coupon to take in.
• Quizno's coupons 2 sandwiches for $5
• Kmart will be doubling coupons--with a bunch of caveats--7/4-7/10.  Just the first 5 coupons you use, and only health and beauty.  It looks like the Ames store is included in this event.  HERE is the list for other stores.

Everyone have a safe and happy 4th of July!  I'll be back on the 5th with more deals.

By Request, Some Diaper Deals

I have a friend with triplets who wants to know how to save money on diapers. I know of a few different deals going on right now at various places, so I want to share.

I know everyone has a different preference for diapers.  I never had luck with anything but Pampers and Luvs, but I think it depends on the baby which works best for you.  Some people get really good deals at the warehouse club stores, but I find much better deals combining coupons with sales at different stores.  If you've read my blog for a while, you know my discount department store of choice is Target.

SO...

At Target right now, they have the big boxes for $29.99 each, and you get a $10 gift card when you buy two of them.  This is on Pampers and Huggies, but the Huggies coupons are HUGE right now.  Target has store coupons for Huggies that can be stacked with the manufacturer's coupons.  I find that if you have enough of the coupons, it's a better deal to buy the smaller packs because you save the same amount off with the coupons.  As an example:

The "jumbo" packs (usually around 20-40 diapers, depending on the size) are $9.99 right now.  There are various $1-$3 off manufacturer's coupons available from the Sunday paper and printables, PLUS a $3 Target coupon.  Stack those together, and you've got a bag of diapers for $5 or under.

Printable coupons for Huggies:

• $3 off Huggies, $2.50 off Huggies Natural, $2 off wipes at this link  (hit the back button to print another set)
• These two printables may work if you haven't printed them yet.  HERE and HERE.  (hit the back button to print another set, too)
• Coupons com printables can be found on the banner above the post.  I made it so you could just open up their coupons, check the ones you want, then print.  Scroll through them all to make sure you find them.  There were 3 different Huggies diaper and wipe coupons up there earlier.

There were also a lot of Huggies coupons in recent Sunday ads.  I collect coupons I will use and save them to match the sales, but if you don't have a ton of them, you are able to buy coupons through ebay and (my favorite) The Coupon Clippers.  While it seems silly to pay for coupons, paying 10 cents to save $1.50 makes good financial sense in some situations.

Also, Amazon has a couple of deals going on for Pampers and Luvs.  Right now, there is a coupon code that gets you 15% off the total, AND you can get an additional 15% off when you do their subscribe and save.  You can set up the regular shipment of diapers for any length of time you want, and you can cancel it whenever you like.  The best part?  They ship them right to your house with free super saver shipping.  Check out the deals by clicking on your brand and checking the message about special offers.


I know I posted this before, but I wanted to hit it again while it's still available.  I've read that if you do this offer, they will also offer you a 3 month free membership to their Prime shipping, which saves you so much money and time on shipping.

New Month, New Amazon Deals

The first of the month excites me for many reasons, but I really love the new Amazon deals and freebies. Because I watch Amazon a lot, I know that if there's anything I want from them, it's only a matter of time before it gets hugely discounted.  I load up my cart with things that interest me and I wait. 

I know I have fellow magazine lovers.  I love to have a wide variety of magazines for when I'm supervising the kids outside.  It's hard to get enough time to read a book, but one article at a time, I can finish a magazine.  There are also some great coupons to be found in many of the magazines.

• Looking at the magazine deals, I see Popular Science is $5 for 1 year, but only through July 3.  You should be able to buy multiple years for the same $5, and that's about as good as the price will ever get.

• The rest of the deals are new and through the end of July.  They are all either $5 or $10 off at checkout, so the price under them doesn't reflect the discount.  Some are 2 year subscriptions for that very low price.

Entertainment Weekly, $15 for one year or $30 for two.  Popular Photography is $9 for 1 year, Marie Claire is $7 for two years, Sports Illustrated will be $28.95 for a year, and Eating Well will be $14.97 for TWO years.  There are more great deals at $5 off and $10 off, so check them out.  These are just my favorites.

Don't forget to check out the free Kindle book downloads.  They've lowered the price on the Kindle itself, so if you've been waiting it may be the right time for it.  There are literally thousands of free books available for download, so check out the list from low to high price. 

There are also loads of free MP3 downloads and they have $5 whole album downloads often, so take a look down this list as well.  I have been able to get some great new albums for $5 or lower just from their deals page.

I'll be back with more new items for July soon.  Hope everyone is enjoying their summer as much as we are, and continue to check the calendar for free events.
