The last time I posted a Victoria’s Secret deal, many of you wrote in to tell me how it saved you money – so naturally I had to share this one with you as well! For today only, March 12th, Victoria’s Secret is offering free shipping when you use coupon code SHIPFREE. There are lots of items on clearance, and every order will receive a “Secret Rewards Card”, which is a store credit that you can use online or in-store from April 1st through the 30th. You won’t know the amount of the gift card until you make a purchase with it, but it will be valued between $10, $50, $100, or $500 – so at the very least, you’ll get a $10 credit with your order. More details on the Secret Rewards program can be found here. I’m not sure how redeeming it will work, since it says the value is not revealed until checkout, but I imagine you’d be able to edit your order during the checkout process – IE, if I buy a $10 bra and find out that my credit is worth $50, I would think that I could click “continue shopping” or something of that nature and add other products to the order. However, I’ll have no way of knowing until I try it, so fair warning!!

Here’s some deal ideas:

1. Head over to either Ebates or ShopAtHome, as they both offer 2% cashback at Victoria’s Secret. If you are new to these sites, you will also receive a $5 bonus for signing up – read my article “How I Save Money With Online Rebates” for more info.

2. Click over to the clearance section of Victoria’s Secret and check out the prices. They have panties on sale for 5/$15, clearance beauty items for $2.99 and up, and lots of other stuff.

3. Use coupon code SHIPFREE at checkout.

4. Receive inexpensive clothing and the Secret Rewards Card for $10 or higher.

To the best of my knowledge, Victoria’s Secret enforces a limit on these promotions to one per customer; so if you plan on buying five items, you will receive one rewards card. From what I understand, you cannot split your order into five transactions to get five rewards cards – your orders would be canceled. Just FYI!

This deal came at just the right time for me, because I was at Ross earlier in the week looking for a hoodie. I really need a new one, but I’ve been having a hard time finding any that suit my style. I found a hoodie in the PINK line for $14.99 that I really like – and the hoodies I saw at Ross were $20+, so it’s cheaper as well. (I just hope the zipper on this one is a little more durable than the last VS hoodie I bought!) I will also get a small rebate from Ebates, as well as the mystery gift card – I’ll keep you updated and let you know if the card results in any good deals.

Big thanks to Common Sense With Money for the info on this deal!
