Gettingready for fall: Jeans

The temperature outside is getting cooler and before we know it all of our shorts and tank tops will be put away until next year. One staple for fall wear, weather you’re a parent or a child, is a good pair of jeans. Or three. Old Navy is having their fall jeans sale right now, with adult sizes starting at $19 and kids’ jeans starting at $12. They way my boys blow holes in the knees, I’ll be grabbing a few pairs.

Sure, you’re already scooping up the various summer clearance sales going on right now—why not stock up in the next size or two, while the getting’s cheap?—but even non-seasonal stores are hopping on the seasonal bandwagon. Don’t ask me to explain; just go with it.

Like this: Right now Oneida is having their summer clearance, and it means unbeatable deals on everything from silverware to baby shower gifts. Shipping is a flat $2.99 per order, or free if you spend $99+. And to make it even better, coupon code RETME11 takes an additional 11% off any clearance item, while code BABY takes an additional 20% off baby items.

The bottom line is some really great deals, seasonal or no.

Hair help: Moroccan Oil

My daughter has long, thick hair with a bit of curl to it. We’ve been spending every day at the beach and she spends the bulk of time swimming in the water. In no time at all, the undersides of her hair become a matted, tangled mess. Bathtime is a treat, as you can well imagine. A girlfriend told me about Moroccan Oil yesterday. She washes and conditions her daughter’s curly hair, then puts a small amount of Moroccan Oil in her hand and spreads it through her hair. She no longer gets tangled hair. Sold!

Whether you feel like summer’s just begun or like it’s flying by, the fact is that the kids will be back to school sooner rather than later. Of course you’ll want to wrap up some of that back-to-school shopping at Amazon, so if you have a Discover Card, they have a special shipping deal for you—for two weeks, shop eligible items, pay with your Discover Card, and coupon code DSCVRFSP will get you free one-day shipping!

I don’t know about you, but to me that sound like a much better deal than swarming my local big box store with the rest of humanity.
