Rise and Shine is my way of starting the day with you – almost as if we’re chatting over a hot cup of coffee or tea! I share my favorite deals of the day, highlights from yesterday, and anything else that might help you save time, money or energy. Published in the morning on Monday through Friday – as I’m able.
Good morning! TGIF. . .lots going on today. Any plans today or this weekend? I’m home with a sick kiddo – sore throat, red eyes – hoping it’s just a virus but we’ll be spending the day snuggling on the couch watching cooking shows and movies (and posting deals, of course).
My FAVORITE deal of the day today is this REI sale. The prices are really incredible because they are taking an EXTRA 25% off the clearance price. I picked up that KAVU hat (bottom left corner of photo) for my hubby for around $8 and I got some strappy Chaco leather sandals for about $33 (reg. $100!). You’ll also find kid’s rain boots for under $9. See a round-up of deals and shop the REI sale here.
Yesterday Living Social rolled out Great Wolf Lodge discounts up to 50% off – as low as $119, depending on your location. If you’re in the Pacific Northwest, the Grand Mound Great Wolf Lodge location in Washington has a ton of choices, starting as low as $159. There are locations nationwide!
And this deal is still one of my FAVORITES right now – get Rachael Ray Everyday, Better Homes & Gardens & Martha Stewart all for only $12 with coupon code QUEENBEE at checkout. This comes out to $1 a month (or 33 cents an issue!) – amazing price, this would retail for $48.99! Valid through October 3. This deal is HOT!
