Free $5 Credit at Eversave

Saturday, December 18th, 2010

Eversave

Eversave is a website similar to Groupon that offers discounted vouchers to retailers. If you register for their site and sign up for their daily email list before December 31st, they will add a $5 credit to your account that you can use to purchase a coupon of your choice with. I definitely think it’s worth signing up to snag the credit now, as you can likely use it to get a good deal later. Thanks, Money Saving Mom and Just Married With Coupons!

NoMoreRack ***Expired***

NoMoreRack

I normally don’t post a lot of “Refer to earn” deals, but I’m going to make an exception for this one because I think it’s worthwhile. NoMoreRack is an online retailer that offers daily deals on a variety of items. Each day, NoMoreRack posts 8 new deals. To spread the word about their company, they are offering a free $10 gift card when you sign up, which can be redeemed on your purchase of $20 or higher; shipping is a flat rate of $2 per item. And if 35 of your friends sign up through you before noon EST on December 16th, you will also receive an iPod Shuffle! Here’s the details:

1. Click here to sign up for NoMoreRack.
2. Click on “My Profile”, then select “Redeem a Gift Card”.
3. Type in code P1070 (They will also show you this code on the confirmation page when you register)
4. Your $10 off $20 credit will be added to your account.
5. To refer friends, click on “Invite friends” and send them your referral link. If 35 of your friends sign up, you will receive an iPod Shuffle; if even more of your friends sign up, you can select another product (All the way up to an iPad for 400 friends). This referral promotion ends December 16th at noon EST.

NoMoreRack is a legitimate site that has been featured on CBS – click here to watch their segment mentioning NoMoreRack. I think this offer could be valuable to many of you for Christmas shopping – the $10 off $20 gift code could come in handy for reducing the cost of a present for someone on your list. Many of you may have friends that would be interested in signing up, and 35 referrals is not a huge number; it’s worth a shot, because an iPod Shuffle would certainly make a great Christmas present! If you have any questions about signing up, just leave a comment below or email me.

Thanks to Money Saving Mom for the tip!

I have another Bluetooth headset deal for you! Right now, NewEgg has this LG HBM-235 Bluetooth 3.0 Headset for $20.01 with a $20 mail-in-rebate and free shipping. The rebate form is posted directly on the product page. Make sure to shop via Ebates or ShopatHome, as they both offer 2% cashback, which will give you .40 cents back on the purchase.

Maybelline Define-A-Line Eyeliner Maybelline Express Finish Nail Enamel

This deal came at a great time for me, because I just noticed the other day that the eyeliner pencil from my Allergy SuperStore order is about to run out. I live in black eyeliner, and the type I buy normally retails for around $7 per pencil. Using this deal, I was able to purchase five Maybelline Define-A-Line Eyeliner pencils and one Maybelline Express Finish Nail Enamel for a total of $7.37 shipped – that averages out to $1.23 per item. In addition to the 50% off discount, I also had a $5 credit in my account, so it was a great deal!

Shopping Trip, December 9th – Free Chicken Nuggets

Saturday, December 11th, 2010

Because of my knee injury, I’m not doing a ton of shopping expeditions at the moment. And thanks to my Dormzy order, Jai picking up the odd gallon of milk or half and half when we run out, and what we have on hand, there’s not too much that we need. However, I made a brief trip to Safeway on Thursday so that I could use a few coupons:

Shopping Trip, December 9th

Total spent: $5.48
Total before coupons: $20.96
View receipt

Got:

2 bags of Tyson chicken nuggets – regularly $6.99 each, used two free product coupons. Final price: Free! Tyson sent me these free coupons because we have a giveaway for Super Coupon Girl readers in the works – so stay tuned for your chance to win some great free coupons of your own!
1 package of Kotex – price: $3.49
1 package of Stayfree – regularly $3.49, used a $1.00/1 coupon from the February 2010 issue of Family Circle magazine, which I got through a free subscription offer. This coupon also doubled, making the final price $1.99.

My Dormzy Order

Friday, December 10th, 2010

It’s certainly been an eventful few weeks. My knee injury has gotten worse, so I’ve actually had to start using a wheelchair temporarily. I can still stand and walk short distances, but I need to use the chair for longer treks, and I also use it around the house as much as I can so that I can keep as much weight off my knees as possible. Jai has been taking care of everything for me while my knees heal – errands, chores, cooking, you name it – he is truly the greatest! I can’t tell you how lucky I am to have such caring people in my life looking out for me.

Suffice to say, I want to keep shopping and cooking as easy as possible right now – so I was especially happy about the Dormzy deal last week! I placed my order last Thursday, and got a giant box in the mail earlier in the week. Here’s what I ordered:

Dormzy

After using my $50 gift certificate from Groupon, my total out of pocket was .11 cents. I spent $25 to buy the gift certificate, so my final cost was $25.11 for 69 items – here’s what I got:

2 cans of Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup
1 can of Campbell’s Tomato Soup
1 can of Del Monte New Whole Potatoes
1 box of Hefty One Zip Freezer Bags, Quart, 18 Count
