Now's the time!

This time of year, end of the holiday season, beginning of the new year, many retailers are hosting their semi-annual or end-of-season sales. This is a great time to shop!! You'll find many sales sometimes equal to or better than Black Friday ones. And although I love to shop amidst the craziness and hunt for a great deal and the instant satisfaction of the tangible item in my hands, there are days that I just can't muster the energy to load up and drag along 3 little minions and all the stuff that comes with them - diapers, snacks, toys, etc. I would rather sit amidst the craziness of the children at home where there is no one to judge the tantrums and breakdowns from all of us.

Luckily there are a few retailers making that extremely easy for us. Here are 3 of my favorites.

Express - Today is the last day they are offering $25 off of $75 purchase, $50 off $150 and $75 off $225. Don't worry these deals come and go regularly, but they are also offering 50% off of all their clearance items!!! You can also get free shipping on purchases totaling over $125, but don't feel obligated to have to purchase that much just for the free shipping...that's how they get you. :) However, you should go here for some fun date night apparel or work ensembles.

Bath & Body Works - The stores semi-annual sale is quickly coming to an end. Hit them up for items marked up to 75% off. Last I checked you could get wallflower bulbs for $2.50 (a Black Friday price) or the 2 packs for $6. You can also get their amazing 3 wick candles for only $8 (regularly $20). And on top of all that you can find a coupon online for $10 off of $40 purchase. You can also show them this post as long as the coupon code is easy to read.

Williams-Sonoma - Best known for their high quality kitchen gadgets, you can find some awesomely functional products as well as cool to have products that you may not have thought existed. This retailer is offering an extra 25% off of their clearance items. I recently found a grill tray that we have been needing for a pretty decent price considering its size and quality in their clearance selection. And icing on the cake - they are offering free shipping on all orders with no minimum purchase requirement with code FREESHIP.

Happy Shopping!!!
