Black Friday Ads

Just want to make sure you all had a link all the Black Friday Ads!

Kids Eat Free

You know how restaurants have those "kids eat free" nights? There is a site called KidsEatFor that actually has the lists of all the deals! Just put in your zip and they can organize your week;). It doesn't have every one in my area but it does have a spot where you can add ones they don't have.

It seems like a good resource!

Amazon Starts Black Friday Early!

I am on the Black Friday hunt because we need things like a tv and a camera but I don't know if it is in the budget this year. I also don't want to be at the sales at 4am so I am checking out the online deals!
One of the best things is that you can sign up for an Amazon Prime free trial for a month. This way you get 2 day delivery for free anywhere you need to send it. I did this last year and shipped my dad and my stepdad's gift last year. I also took part of a lot of 1 day cheap bargains threw the month. So when I wanted that $5 movie I didn't need to spend $25 for the free delivery. When you sign up you can click a button to not renew once the month is over.

The good deals are starting to roll in on Amazon's sales so I am just going to post a few ads. Threw the week I am also going to post the deals as I see them!

Super Saving Saturday: Free Wipes

I got all these flushable toddler wipes for free! My friend Jessica alerted me to this deal. Organic Grocery Deals has a Target coupon for $1 off 1 package of baby wipes or diapers. It doesn't say toddler wipes but (obviously) it works for those too. At some of the Targets the refills for toddler wipes is 97 cents. So you get it for free. I am printing these out by the pages (you can print multiples at once) and using them every time I go by a Target. They expire December 5th so you have time to go get some freebies! Some checkers will only let you use 1 at a time but I have never had that problem.

But be on the look out! One Target (at Riverpark) had the refills for $1.27 but another (Willow and Herndon) had them for only 97 cents. So make sure you check prices!!!

Philosophy Freebie

Philosophy is giving away free samples of their Gingerbread Foaming Shower Gel. All you have to do is first become a fan of theirs on Facebook, then click Go to Application (big blue button on top right) and fill out a form. Then they send it to you in a few weeks. I tried going straight to the form and it doesn't work.

This would be a great treat for yourself or round out a basket or stocking!

Loan-A-Tool

I can say one of the reasons that we take our car to a mechanic for little things is because we don't have the tools or the knowledge. We can get the knowledge for free online or in a library book but not the tools. Well, now we have a free solution to that problem!

Auto Zone has a Loan A Tool program! They have over 60 tools for various car systems that are free to use. You just place a deposit, use the tool and then return the tool and receive 100% of the deposit back! That is it!

Go check out the list on the website. How cool is that?

SC Johnson Rebate

This is one of the easiest rebates ever! All you have to do is buy 3 SC Johnson products (Glade, Windex, Raid and a ton more) between 10/1/09 and 6/30/10. Then just fill out the form and mail it in! Now the only down side is that multi packs count as 1 but that isn't really a problem;). It is a pdf that will need to be downloaded.

Combine this with a couple of coupons and a sale and I think there is a good chance we will all be getting free product!
