Deal for Barbie Girls

No frugal mom would ever go for this deal, but those wonderful aunties and grandparents who completely overdo would flip over it.  It’s great if you have multiple little girls to buy for at Christmas.

Spend $100 on Barbie products (*listed on the site), and you can get a $50 Barbie pre-paid Visa card.

Just print the certificate, shop online or at a retail store, save receipt and upc, complete certificate and send it all in. Expires 12/31/2008. Available only in the US.  Details here.

Restaurant Gift Certificate Bonus

If you frequent any of these places, it might behoove you to buy a gift card for yourself.

Buy a $25 gift certificate and receive another $5 off which may come as another gift card good immediately or next visit. Deals may vary slightly.

Applebee’s, Denny’s, Uno, O’Charley’s, Logan’s Roadhouse, Buffalo Wild Wings, Stake N Shake, Moe’s Southwest Grill, Red Robin, Taco Cabana, Texas Roadhouse, IHOP

Now I haven’t confirmed all these deals, it’s just internet buzz. You might want to call before you go. Also, check to see if there is an expiration date.  It would be a great idea to start asking at every restaurant you frequent.  These deals are always on.

Borders.com Coupon Codes for Discounts

Borders.com has a deal going on. Here are the coupon codes.

DMB5387A 40% off any book
DML5388Y 30% off any item (#1)
RMA1116Z 30% off any item (#2)
BRR5489A 30% off any item (#3)
RMX1116Y 30% off any item (#4)

Coupons take discounts off “list price”. Borders never offers free shipping codes, but shipping is free if you have it shipped to a store near you. Great offer, but I would suggest you still check Amazon.

Hey, couple this deal with the current Coinstar deal and you’ll get an extra $10 gift certificate! Just trade in your coins for a Borders gift certificate. Check the Coinstar website though. Not all machines give out Borders gift certificates.

$10 Bonus from Coinstar if you have over $40 in Change

If you have the change and a Coinstar machine around, what a deal!  Look here for more info and to find a change machine in a store near you.

Grocery Store Deals Starting 11/12/08

In my neck of the woods, here are the great deals. Don’t just look here though. Scour the sale ads for yourself and find more/better deals. I like researching my favorite sites, but it seems I always find several better deals (for our family) all on my own. This list will definitely help you though.

Albertsons deals can be found here.
Kroger deals can be found here. My favorite this week.
Tom Thumb/Safeway deals can be found here.

Walgreens $5 Off $20 Purchase Coupon

Another wonderful coupon for you Wags shoppers. In case you don’t know, Walgreens has an awesome rebate program, and I know plenty of people who get tons of things for free. I don’t do the rebate thing because they seem like a hassle to keep up with. It is well worth it to many others though. However, I do love their weekly/monthly deals, and just may use this coupon , good Friday & Saturday.

Central Market - Free Gallon of Milk with $30 Purchase

Click here for the coupon.  I don’t know how anyone could walk out of that incredible store without spending less than $30.  So, if you’re lucky enough to live by one and will be going soon, don’t forget to take your coupon.  Good through Sunday, 11/16. (Thanks for the tip, Sherri)

Gaga’s Online 90% Off

Gaga’s is an online formal clothing rental site for children.  They’re going out of business and selling formal wear for cheap, cheap, cheap!  Suits and tuxes for boys are about $12-15.  Formal dresses for girls are around the same.  If you have a child who needs a spiffy new outfit for Christmas, a wedding, or any formal occasion, check it out.  With prices that low, I can’t imagine stock will last long.
