Hello All-
If you ever shop at Build a Bear or might or need a gift, read this post!
Costco is offering a $50 gift card for $39.99, you get one gift card with a $50 value on it. This is a 20% discount!
If you belong to the Build a Bear Stuff for Stuff Club chances are you get coupons or rebates on purchases, so pair these together for even more savings.
These gift cards don't expire, so it is a good deal if you will be shopping there. Last time these sold out quickly and haven't been back for over 6 months, so plan ahead! They are available in near the HUGE orange waterslide toy that is in the seasonal section.
Happy Saving!

Caution/Savings Tip-Macy's Information
Hello All-
I am seeing too many changes in coupons and how sales are applied at a variety of stores and I learned a valuable lesson this weekend at Macy's that I want to share.
I am a past Macy's employee and it is not my intention to speak ill of them, but I just want you to be a savvy shopper, so here is my savings tip/caution!
They offer some great coupons, but half the time they exclude all types of items, if you don't see the exclusion clearly listed, ask to see a manager, often they will honor the discount if it isn't spelled out on the coupon, but they also use generic language like "designer" which encompasses MANY items...these coupons are a bit difficult to use. If you are a Macy's card holder you will get more coupons with fewer exclusions and this is a nice perk!
This weekend I was looking for a new bedding set for my daughter, I found a Tommy Hilfiger set that I liked, but they didn't have it at my local store (found out from a phone call), but some one had returned the throw pillows to the store, so I could check out the print there and buy the rest of the pieces on-line through Macy's. I got to the store and purchased the pillows. I thought the price seemed higher than on-line, but I thought I was confused, so I went home to check. Sure enough, the price on-line was MUCH cheaper than in the store....aaaah!!! So, I called the store and they were happy to price match if I brought the print-out from the website into the store, but I had to do it within 1 day because the sale was ending, so I have opted to just return these to the store and I purchased the other pillows on-line. I was advised by the store I would be looking at shipping charges, which is true, but it was free shipping this weekend, so I did save money shopping on-line. Before you make a major purchase at Macy's either check the price and print out the item before you go to the store because if it is cheaper on-line they will match it or at least check a purchase when you get home and if it is cheaper go back for a price adjustment!
Also, the bedding that goes with the TH set I was looking at I found at Overstock.com for $100 less than Macy's was charging!!! This is a great reminder that it is good to do a search for a product to see who is selling it for cheaper! I got a $550 set for $89, a great savings!

Steal-Robeez 0-2Y, Nordstrom.com +Free Ship
Hello All-
I always debate sharing deals when I am partaking in them because I don't want people to think I am cheap when they receive a gift I have wrote about on my blog, but then I am budget restricted, so with that said I have to share this deal!
Nordstrom.com which normally offers $8 flat rate shipping on all orders, is offering a special promotion right now where if you buy 1 pair of shoes with an order, they ship your whole order for free! Use promo code "SHOES" in the promo field.
Right now they have Robeez for ages 0-2 years for 40% off! This is about 5-6 different styles and I doubt this will last long (missed out on the crocs deal a few weeks ago) so don't delay if interested.
Do a search for Robeez and then click on "sale first" tab to have those pop up first, they are adorable styles for boys and girls. I have stocked up for upcoming baby showers. They are a versatile gift and at around $15, are right in my gift budget, down from $28 which is typically over my budget, so this is a great option! Pair it with promo code above and you get free shipping too, even if you buy more things too!

I always forget about this great discount resource, so before I forget again, I want to share it with you!
REI.com has a tab on their homepage for outlet items, typically items from last year they are closing out. However, the savings are fabulous!
I love to save up gifts for the holidays and pace my buying throughout the year. This year I am being very strict on dollar amounts, so this site is allowing me to get great deals within budget!
They also offer free "ship to store", where you can have the items shipped directly to the closest REI or to the one of your choice for free! They send you an email when your order has arrived in store and you can pick it up, great service!
