The Children's Place is going to have all my money. Their $2.99 Fall Clearance Sale started yesterday at outlets stores only. What started as a quick peek turned into a monster deal of an evening. I snagged some great items to round out the man child's fall/winter wardrobe. And I shopped ahead to jump start the Spring. Then, it hit me, at these prices I'd be crazy not to shop for all the nieces and nephews. So I ended up Christmas shopping for 8 children, including my own.

Each niece and nephew will receive 3 shirts and 1 pair of shorts (even the newborn twins), not to mention the bag of clothes solely for the man child. I used a 20% off coupon and then was allowed to combine an additional 10% coupon from opening a charge card. 

I normally don't do store charge accounts because there isn't anything there I can't pay with cash but with The Children's Place card, you get 10% for opening, another 10% when you get your card in the mail, and when you spend $200 on the card you'll get 10% off for a year. And as you see I've been shopping a lot there lately, it seemed worth it...and today it totally was! Clothes for now, clothes for later, and clothes for Christmas, it was  a great day.

Today is the last day to cash in on the Restaurant.com 80% off sale. Just enter promo code: FUN at checkout for discount to be applied. The 10 gift cards I ordered, arrived in the mail on Saturday. I purchased 10 in an effort to offset Christmas spending. So my plan is to stick them in Christmas cards. Hope you can enjoy this deal too.

Kohl's is having a huge sale. The good news, shipping is only $.99. The bad news is that shipping is per item. So it's not the greatest but certainly not the worst either. You have a real chance at finding some sweet deals. This may also be a great avenue for back to school clothes, shoes, or even couponing for Christmas. Let me know what you pick up.

*Sources say, if you use the code JULYSHOP15, you can get an extra 15% off the already reduced prices. That really sweetens the deal. Happy Shopping! (thanks hiptosave)

Found our first great coupon for Christmas deal. Restaurants.com is offering 80% their restaurant certificates when you enter the promo code FUN. I love this promotion. I do, however, get the gift card instead of the individual certificates and I pay $3 for the $25 certificate instead of $2 (with discount). They make great gifts or can balance out your "eating out" budget. These are going to be great to put in Christmas cards to family. It's a gift for everyone and you avoid buying individual gifts!!! I scooped 10 of them! Whoo-hoo.

I have decided that I will coupon for Christmas. I think it's going to be a fun challenge to see if I can do Christmas for like ? people on a fixed budget. I've got to do a list of people we'll provide gifts for and then a fixed dollar amount like $75-$100. I haven't worked out the kinks but I think it will be challenging and a lot of fun considering some of the online fashion sales lately.

Of course I'll be sharing my finds. I think I'm going to set aside a box and just put everything in there: restaurant gift cards, games, and whatever else I find. Feel free to join me and let me know how you are meeting your challenge with the posts you're finding here.
