Real Simple magazine $5.00 for 1 year!



I love Real Simple magazine.  It's chock full of all kinds of good ideas for decorating, organizing, cooking, etc. 

Real Simple is a bigger magazine than most others and also carries the bigger price tag to match.  A 1 year subscription usually goes for about $22 or so.  But... today and tomorrow only you can score Real Simple magazine... for 1 year... for just $5.00!!! 

What a deal! Look here to find it. Also, look here to check out the other magazine subscriptions that you can scoop up for just $5 during this promo.

This is a fantastic price and would also make a fantastic gift! 

Simply purchase the subscription as a gift for someone and then buy one issue from a store.  Then you can wrap up that one magazine along with a note stating that they will soon be receiving their 1 year subsription in their mailbox!  Love it!

Jump on it because these $5 subscription deals are only available 11/30/09 and 12/1/09.

Stock up on batteries...

There's nothing worse than your kids opening up Christmas gifts, getting all excited to play with their new toys, only for you to discover that you don't have the right size or quantity of batteries needed.

Been there, done that. And it sure sucks the fun right out from under the Christmas tree.

Anyway, make sure you stock up on batteries before Christmas. It's also a great idea to give batteries with gifts that you're giving to other children besides your own. That way you know they will have what they need to enjoy your gift right away!

I remember when my parents would put batteries in our stockings and we'd open them first and wonder what the batteries were for. It kept up the anticipation as we opened each gift waiting to see what the batteries went to.

Ok, so anyway, if you're looking for a good deal on all kinds of batteries, check out Batteries.com. Right now they are offering up a great coupon code that will take 20% off everything on their site!

Simply use coupon code: THANKS09 at checkout. Code expires 11/19/09.
