It’s Christmas time, and if you’re like me, you’re scrambling to figure out what you’re going to order for who, and how you can do it without having to step foot in a mall or major department store.

So the goal of today’s featured item is to provide you with some options for your shopping list.  First, we have the 1/4ct Diamond Prong Set Heart Pendant in White Gold from SuperJeweler.  At only $59, this represents a savings of 80% off the regular price.

Seriously, if you haven’t been to SuperJeweler yet, this is the place to go for jewelry for wives, girlfriends, moms, grandmas, etc.  This heart pendant is on sale for the next two days, so be sure to act quickly.

Other great items include the George Foreman Grill with Removeable Plates.  This is a great option for bachelors.  I practically lived on my Foreman Grill before getting married.  It was perfect for my apartment.

Last but not least, check out the sales going on at Linens N’ Things, where you can save 40% to 60% off everything in the store!  No wonder they filed chapter 11 with sales like this going on.

Have a great Thursday!

Don’t let Cyber Week pass you by without taking advantage of some of the great offers out there.  For example, at Dell Home, you can pick up this sweet DMA 2100 Media Center Extender for just $60, or 50% off the regular price of $120.  This allows you to stream media from your PC to your television.  In my case, I missed the first 3 episodes of the new season of 24 because we were out of town (and I forgot to set my DVR to record.. DOH!), so a media extender would come in handy.

Also, be sure to check out a couple of the great sales going on right now, starting with the Best Buy Cyber Week sale.  You can save on TVs, home theater products, appliances, and much, much more.  Or check out the Kohl’s 2-day sale, where products are reduced up to 60% off the list price (plus an additional 10% savings with coupon code HOLIDAY3416.

Enjoy!

This weekend, there’s some really great sale events going on at several top stores.  First, at Sears, we have the Sears Saturday Sale, where you can save on doorbuster deals (through noon).  There’s also other great deals going on throughout the day on items such as appliances, HD cameras, fitness equipment, and much, much more.

The J&R Pre-Black Friday Sale is on!  That’s right, in the latest trend in shopping genius, merchants are now pushing forward with pre-Black Friday sales.  I believe this is already the second or third pre-Black Friday sale from J&R.  Either way, who cares, because it means great savings for Christmas shoppers.

So check out this Fisher Slim-1600 Slim-Profile Audio System for $50, or 72% off the regular price of $180.  This stylish audio system includes an AM/FM radio, CD player, and remote control.

Also, be sure to take a peak at the Coby MPC-7054GB-BLK 4GB Super-Slim MP3 and Video Player with Touchpad Control they currently have on sale.  At $40, that represents a savings of $20 off the regular price.

You’ve been working all week, slaving for ‘da man, helping to build somebody else’s empire.  Now it’s time to retire to your own for the weekend.  However, your empire feels more like a crumbling dynasty of ruins.  Something just isn’t quite right about that.

It’s that time of year again.  This year, rather than dragging that 5-year old Christmas tree out of the attic that’s on its last leg, or dealing with Christmas tree stands and watering with a live tree, check out Sears instead.  They have this GE 7 foot Spruce Christmas Tree on sale for just $200, or $100 off the normal price of $300.

At 7 feet tall, this tree comes with multi-color lights and a frosted green color.  This tree also breaks down into 3 pieces, making for easy construction.

Last weekend I went to PetSmart and bought two 40 pound bags of dog food and a bottle of glucosamine, and at the end of it all, spent over $100.  While that was frustrating, it’s even more frustrating to turn around this week and see a coupon that would’ve saved me $15.

But, rather than hording this coupon to myself, or sweeping it under a rug hoping nobody will see it, I’ve decided to share with everyone.  So, yes, you can save 15% on orders of $60+ through the link on this page.  Just add the items to your cart and you should see the 15% discount at checkout.

And in case you almost forgot, it’s almost Christmas time.  Ho ho ho, check out the savings at Frederick’s of Hollywood, where you can save $10 off $75+, $20 off $100+, or $40 off $150+.  Just click the link on this page and proceed to stuff your cart full of stuff.  This is one of those places where it really does reinforce the old adage: it’s better to give than to receive.

Besides these two great offers, also check out the 20% off everything sale at Chico’s, good through tomorrow.  And how about the Sears 2-day sale, where you can save on Kenmore Appliances and floor care, as well as Craftsman power tools, lawn & garden, and much, much more.

Have a good weekend!

Whether it’s healthy or not, coffee has become a central part of my lifestyle.  The need to stay focused and alert throughout my day is a constant battle.  Through all of this, coffee and espresso have been my crutch, with the ease of making a cup of coffee and the cost being the limiting factors.

Recently, I’ve been turned on to a new concept in the realm of coffee.  While visiting some friends, we enjoyed using their automatic home-brewing system that uses packets for coffee, espresso, cream, and anything else you can possibly think of mixing in.  The ease of getting a decent cup of coffee–even if not quite as good as my espresso machine that uses ground coffee–is still a cool concept for someone looking for quantity and turnaround time over quality.

With that in mind, check out the Keurig B60 Special Edition Gourmet Single-Cup Home-Brewing System.  This little gizmo makes single cups of coffee, tea, or even hot chocolate.  With a 48 oz reservoir, you can create up to a 9.25 ounce serving of your favorite beverage.

You can even adjust temperature settings and brewing time.  So check it out today at Amazon, where it’s on sale for $145, or 28% off the list price.

Have a good Thursday!
