Free $15 Credit at One Kings Lane (good toward shipping too) Makes Some Super Cheap Things!

If you sign up for a new account at One Kings Lane through this link, you automatically get a $15 credit. The cool thing is that it counts toward shipping as well. There are some cool bamboo kitchen things (cutting boards, salad tongs, etc) that are on sale for $7-$10 (and some for more) making them only a few dollars (and you can pay through PayPal, so you don't even have to get up and grab your wallet)! I bought a 6 piece utensil set (it was a tough choice though, I almost got the salad tongs). Anyway, check it out, because things are going fast!

Indianapolis Children's Museum Annual Pass for $60

If you sign up on My Savvy Source (a site kind of like groupon, but specializing in family friendly fun) and check out the Indianapolis deal, you can get an annual family pass to the Indianapolis Children's Museum for $60, which is half off the regular price!

Go here to sign up, then click on Local Savings, the Indianapolis. The deal expires at the end of the day on Thursday.

Cheap Rechargeable Batteries, Razor Blades, and More

I don't know if you've heard of Groupon or not, but I thought I'd pass along a good deal I saw today. Groupon is a site where there is a special deal each day for each major city area. They are often times local restaurants, entertainment, stores, etc that offer gift certificates for 50-90% off face value as long as enough people buy in (which pretty much always happens pretty quickly). You have to purchase the groupon the day it is offered, but the actual certificate is good for much longer.

The deal I saw today is actually an online deal posted on the under Long Island in the list of cities. You can buy a $20 gift certificate to soap.com for $10. I took a look at soap.com to see if it was anything I would be interested in and found that they have all sorts of household and personal products at regular store prices. That didn't excite me too much because I usually get really good deals on those sorts of things. I looked around the site for things that I can't usually find on sale, that would be good to buy essentially at 50% off. I was so excited to find rechargeable AA and AAA batteries since that is something I was actually going to shop for today anyway! The other thing I looked for that we always need but I rarely find on sale is razor blades for my husband (he is particular about those and they aren't cheap). Take a look and see if there is anything that you would be interested in, then sign up on Groupon and buy the soap.com groupon (available only today, but the groupon certificate you buy is good through Dec 23rd). Oh, this groupon also includes free 1-2 day shipping, so you really can't go wrong.

Personalized Plates for Gifts or for Fun! $5

Personalized Plates for Gifts or for Fun! $5

I accidentally ordered a teacher kit for my kids to make make-a-plates, so I have 100 make-a-plates. If you would like to make some of these for your kids or have your kids draw on them and use them as Christmas gifts to grandparents or anything like that, let me know.

I have to send the order in all together and I am not in too big a hurry. I think if we sent in in by October 15, that would give plenty of precessing time before the holidays. Their turn-around time is 3 weeks, and then that would give you time to ship some gifts if you need to.

Anyway, each plate would be $5 (including shipping and everything), so if you want to make any, you can contact me at 351-8176 and marileejohnson@gmail.com to get your special circle paper to draw on, and then we send them in to have the plates made. I will be sending this in October 15.
