Delaware Deal Finder

  The Nordstrom anniversary sale went live today for card holders to access the sale before the general public. The sale opens to the public on July 15th, but you can still preview the sale online and add items to your wish list!  It’s a rainy day here in Delaware, so my daughter and I decided to check out the sale in store and here are some of the kids items we snagged during the early access sale:  Boys : The North face Peril Glacier is an item I buy about every other year during the sale, and we’ve just been sizing up! This is a toddler size item so it goes up to 6T. If you have older boys check out the other north face options in bigger sizes . The Nike star runner 3 sneaker for my little guy is perfect because it’s lightweight mesh and has a Velcro closure. Toddler and little kid sizes for this one!  The Quicksilver kids rainy season long-sleeve cotton graphic tee comes in sizes from toddler to big boy it’s a great item for a rainy summer day like today, th...

Prime Day 2022 is right around the corner! If you've been considering joining Amazon Prime, now is the time to do it. It's a membership program that offers a lot of extras for an annual fee of $119. It can seem like an expensive proposition compared to other services, but there are plenty of benefits that make signing up worth it – especially if you're a frequent Amazon shopper. If you're on the fence about whether to pay the annual fee and join Prime, here are some reasons why we think it's worth your while: Free Two Day Shipping As a Prime member, you get free two-day shipping on millions of items. And if you're not in a rush, select items qualify for free one-day delivery—even on the weekends. Free Video Streaming Stream thousands of movies and TV shows from Amazon Prime Video. Amazon Prime Video has a lot of exclusive content, just like other streaming services. Amazon original content includes shows such as The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Free Mu...

Target announced they plan to revive a sale from 2018 that offers teachers a weeklong 15% discount on select items. The sale starts July 13th and will include school supplies and other essentials for classrooms, like disinfecting wipes and tissues (I can't imagine how many teachers go through!), but some new items are going to be included this year. Target announced that Pillowfort furniture and Bullseye's Playground items are going to be included, but I think the biggest benefit is that men and women's clothing is also going to be included, plus shoes! I think that is totally awesome that this expanded selection is included and Target has a lot of professional clothing to pick from. Electronics, backpacks and lunch boxes are excluded at this time, but I'm sure there will be back to school sales available to all later in the summer where you can snag these items for a discount. As mentioned this sale is for teachers and geared towards K-12, but any teach...

Who is ready to go broke in mid July? Just me? I mentioned in an earlier blog post  about how a lot of retailers will have sales of their own to complete with Amazon Prime Day which is July 15-16 (48 hours!). Let's take a look at what retailers are going to compete with Amazon's Prime Day . Target Target is going to have it's own July " Deal Days " on both July 15th and July 16th. A draw to this online sale is that shoppers can pick up orders on the same day in the store if you can't wait for Amazon's 2-day shipping. Also, if you have a Target card, you will save another 5% if you use the card for payment. I love Target's in house brands, so I'm going to be watching this sale closely! Walmart Walmart has revealed that they are planning to offer thousands of deals on July 15th. Last year they joined in by offering free two-day shipping without memerbership fees and also promoted same-day pickup on a wide variety of items. They also he...

June was a busy month! School ended and my oldest was home for her first summer break now that she is older. Work kept me busy, and with juggling all the summer activities and social events, I leaned hard on Amazon this month to help me with all my shopping needs. Here are some of my purchases from June: Swimsuits I ordered LOTS of swim suits the past 2 weeks from a few retailers. I fell in love with this One Shoulder one piec e which is just $29.99! It was so flattering and this blue color looks great on me, but there are tons of color options! Amazon.com This two piece set gets a lot of rave reviews, and I can see why, at just $26.99 it's a great price point! It would look great if you want a two piece with some modesty and the quality was really nice. I think it would look fantastic on those of you that are a A-C cup, but I looked larger than I wanted on top the way it fit on me. There are a lot of options and prints to check out. Oh, did I mention the bottom...

photo credit: Amazon Are you ready for a shopping day as big as Black Friday? Last year over 100 million items were purchased! Prime "day" (it's a 36 hour event) is predicted to start Monday, July 15th and continue through July 16th for 2019, although the official date is yet to be announced. So what is the big deal with this sale anyway? Amazon started holding a mid-summer sale back in 2015 and now it's turned into a summer black Friday event. After the first years, other retailers caught on and now offer their own deals and price matching, so there are tons of shopping deals across retailer if you aren't an Amazon shopper. For those who are not yet Amazon prime members, you can get Prime day deals by signing up for a free 30 day trial . I cannot live without my Amazon Prime membership. To get the full scoop on the benefits, click here and visit my blog post and check out the Subscribe and Save guide  (one of my favorite features!) Last year, a p...

It's been a while coming, the living room was due for a makeover. The furniture is from Pottery Barn and had a good 10 year run, but is now full of dings and scratches, since having kids means we can't have anything nice. About two years ago we bought a big cheap sectional because we were not ready to invest in a nice sofa with two little ones, and it's been used as a tumble track moreso than a sofa. We painted about 6 months ago but despite a pinterest board full of ideas, I wasn't making any real progress buying new furniture. I had an idea in my head, but really did not have time to search various websites and try to come up with a cohesive design. After some googling, I decided to try out Havenly , it's an app that pairs you with a designer to tackle your home design requests. There are a few different packages to pick from, depending on your needs. Click here to save $50 off a Full room design or $20 off a Mini room design!!! I chose the Full...

As much as I love shopping with my sister or a friend, there is one thing I never shop without - my phone! Sure, it can't tell me if I look fat in a certain outfit I'm trying on (well...pics don't lie), but I give it a pass because it can still provide some awesome benefits. There are savings apps, there are coupon apps, each store has an app...how do you know what is worth taking up precious memory on your phone? It can be overwhelming, but I've divided my breakdown into certain sections. Start with downloading the app for the stores you shop at most. Stores: Cartwheel: This is Target's app. I keep it open as I shop so I can scan my items as I shop to see if there is a discount. If so I add it to my list. The app has a barcode in it that you simply have the cashier scan prior to payment and it takes off whatever percent savings were available for your purchases. You can prep ahead of time but searching through the categories to find what items have discoun...
