Yep, it's for real! :) Just be sure to follow the instructions listed on the blog so you order the one sold directly from Amazon and not one from a 3rd party seller. Here is the link to the correct product on Amazon.com. You just have to purchase it for $50, select free shipping, and then fill out the rebate form. We desperately need this for our laptops at home!

Good Excuse to Eat Out :)

For the entire month of May, T.G.I.Friday's has $5 salads & sandwiches! This was actually where Mike and I had our first date and we were just talking about how we never go there anymore... so I'm thinking we'll have to pay them a visit sometime this month! I love their Pecan-Crusted Chicken Salad. And that's as cheap as eating fast-food! You can check-out the promotion here.

The Best Kind of Shopping!

Have you ever gone up to a register to pay full-price for something only to be pleasantly surprised that it is on sale and costs less than you expected? Well, yesterday, my friend/co-worker, Senneca, and I went to BabiesRUs on our lunchbreak so she could help me add a few things to my registry. The brown lamp I wanted to add was the last one in the store and was being discontinued, so I decided to just go ahead and buy it... for $44.99. It rang up $11.75...and then we noticed the sales people whispering and we heard them say "are we discontinuing all the Amy Coe stuff? so it's 75% off?" Well, that's all Senneca and I needed to hear... we rushed back to the Amy Coe (modern designer for BRU) section and filled a cart to the brim with tons of stuff we had been eyeing but never wanted to pay full price for... most things were now ringing up between $2-5, even though they were marked full-price! Everything I got was part of two collections that go perfectly with the bedding I already have. We had so much fun!! And we could tell that the sales people were shocked that we discovered this unmarked sale before they could get back there and grab it all for themselves! It was a bargain shopper's dream day! So here's what I ended up with:

1 Large Brown Area Rug
1 Wall Art Canvas
1 Baby Hamper
3 Decorative Storage Boxes
6 Receiving Blankets
1 Chenille Blanket
1 Waste Basket
2 Lamps with Shades
3 Crib Sheets
1 Changing Pad Cover

Total Price: $98.15
Total Savings: $294.45!!

The feeling of finding an awesome deal that no one else knew about yet: Priceless.
