My Private Obsession

Check out the Nordstrom saleUp to 50% off women's and children's clothes.  Some great bargains on  dresses like this sexy DVF Brea Dress  or this Carmen Marc Valvo stunner.  And you can't go wrong with Marc Jacobs and a wrap dress!

There's a sale on Men too. 

And, I'm so loving this satchel bag for only $109 (reg. $398). Hint, hint <wink>

Oh the Weather Outside is Frightful...

And one last deal before I slowly walk away from the computer...

Coldwater Creek. 50% off everything.  Including their outlet.  But act fast because this stuff is flying out of the store.

Silk Beaded Evening bag $14.99, now $7.50
Brown Stitched Leather Boots $89 now $45
Amethyst Velvet Jacket $34, now $17 and matching Gored Velvet Long Skirt $22, now $11
Amber Pendant Necklace $150, now $75 -- you HAVE to see this handmade beauty!

50% discount is applied automatically during checkout to the lowest price currently displayed on the Web site or use Offer Code WEB50. You have to checkout until the last page before your lower price is displayed (I tried it and it works).  Ends Thursday, December 28, 2006, midnight (ET).

Stay Waarrrrmmmm

Need a warm winter jacket in a bright, light color?  Time to treat yourself.

LL Bean has their Wildcat 3 in 1 jacket on sale for a steal at $38.95 (reg. $99).  I love the Thistle and Raspberry colors. Free shipping too.  Use code: 2333950.

If funky and stylish is more your scene, check out this washable suede, snap front jacket on amazon for $12.90.
Shipping is $4.98 or free with a $25.00 purchase. If you buy two, you'll get them for $25.80 shipped.

Toys, toys, toys

HUGE clearance sale at KB Toys through Dec 26th.  Up to 60% off.

Got a kid who is begging for a dog?  Try this Amazing Pets Cold Nose Yorkie for $24.99.  And for people who don't have kids, yes this toy really has a cold nose and yes, it's a little freaky what kids toys can do today.

This is a nice Miele play oven for under $30.  Although I don't think it's fair that my 4-year old should have a fancy Euro cooker before I do!

Durable baby walker and activity center -- this toy has it all and a steal for $29.99.  This would make a great 1st birthday gift.

Let the Sales Begin!

One of my favorite virtual stores, Red Envelope is having a 75% off winter merchandise sale.  Snap up this cute set of  4 mugs and matching plates.  Each one is $15.99 for the set.  Or this set of 2 candles for $15.99, reg. $48.  Red is always good for Valentine's Day and green for St Patrick's Day.

Airmail

Aeropostale, that brand inexplicably sought after by teenagers, is having a 50% off sale.  Cute hoodies and jeans just in time for the holidays.  Oh, and those prices?  Those are the sale prices.

Go For Broke

WHY was I messing around on the Gap sale site when I could have been drooling over these yummy sweaters for him and scrumptious handbags for her on sale at e-luxury???  I really like this D&G Leather/Tweed bag for $387 (reg. $645). 

I know...there's the college education thing to think about.  <sigh>  Times 3.  <bigger sigh>.  The mortgage.  Retirement.

Decisions, decisions.

Gap = Generic American Paraphernalia

Gap is having a 50% off sale.

Pretty good prices on basics like jeans for men, parkas for her (although I'm not sure if "Squirrel" refers to the color or the collar) and adorable shearling boots for girls.  I don't have boys but it looks like they have some deals there too.

Sleep like a King (or Queen)

So when is $299 on a sheet set one of the best deals I've seen in the last month?

When it's a Pratesi King-size sheet set.  If you don't know Pratesi, they are they Rolls-Royce of bedding.  The Ritz-Carlton uses them in their Executive Suites.  They are 100% Egyptian cotton which does mean that you will need to rescue them from the dryer when very damp and iron them to dry.

How's this:  save 12% through December 14th AND FREE SHIPPING. 

What ARE you waiting for?  Christmas?

Almighty Elmo

Walmart has managed to score 4,000 TMX Elmos and they are selling them for $39.95 every day at noon this week.  Which is a great deal if you happen to have a toddler in love with the zealous red puppet and don't want to pay, like, $1,000,000 on eBay.

And, according to CNN Money, Walmart's sales have been less than stellar this holiday season.

So I ask you: coincidence or cynical marketing ploy?
