My daughter isn't quite old enough to start reading my blog yet, so I can let you in on a little secret.
My wife and I just ordered a bunch of stuff online from The Disney Store for Christmas and her birthday. She's really into princesses. 🙂
Anyway, after my wife picked out the items, I asked her to check out Mr. Rebates before placing the order. We were glad we did. Not only did Mr. Rebates offer cash back for purchases at The Disney Store, but they've bumped up their cash back percentage for that store to 7% for the holidays. (Normally it's 3%.) Plus, there was a coupon for free shipping on orders over $75, which knocked another $15 off of our total!
Just a reminder to check Mr. Rebates to see if your favorite stores participate. You can end up putting out less money for your holiday purchases, as well as for your purchases during the rest of the year. (The $5 signup bonus makes reaching the low $10 payout threshold super-easy as well!)
Just something your daughter might love – a local artist who made a set of three hand screenprinted “princess prints” for his own daughter. 18×24″, all three for $25. http://adamturman.com/index.php?p=10&s=9 Has nothing to do with anything except that, as a PF blogger, you might love the great deal for some cool decor!
Good idea-but I am so overwhelmed with keeping track of rebates and coupons, that I must go back and evaluate the time spent versus the monetary value of my time. I can replace money, not time! Decisions … Decisions
