Petara's Prerogative

Tomorrow, July 12th, Chili's will be offering a free Molten Lava dessert with the purchase of any adult entree.  I will be posting the printable coupon, so keep your eyes open.

Do you have course books from last semester laying around the house or a pair of shoes that you purchased that you can't find the receipt for and no longer want?  I know I have plenty of things that I need to get rid of.  I had always sold my old books on Amazon.com but I have also started selling items on eBay.  It is a great way to get a little extra money in your pockets and clear the clutter in your home.  It is also a lot easier than you would think to set up accounts to sell, receive money and to ship packages.  Give it a try! It is also easy to find a near by consignment shop to sell items for you.  You will have to share the profits but will not have to do much work. It is also always a blessing to donate items to a charity.  Sometimes, it does seem easier to just throw things away when cleaning but it doesn't take a lot of effort to load up your trunk and make a quick stop.  Remember, one man's trash is another man's treasure.

Today kicks off the additional 30% off clearance at Dillard's. Macy's is offering an additonal 25% off clearance online and if you use the promo code Fourth you will get an additional 15% off.  There is also a savings pass for an additional15% off clearance in-store. Don't you just love a good deal?

Dillard's will offer an additional 30% off clearance starting tomorrow, June 30th.  It started today for Dillard's cardholders. Macy's is also offering an additional percentage off clearance for their 4th of July sale.

If you need to take the GRE sometime in the near future, you may want to schedule to take it in either August or September.  The GRE will be replaced with an updated test so for those two months you can take it 50% off.  Scores will not be available until November, but that is still in time to submit them for the spring semester.  This is a great deal that I plan to take advantage of and I hope you will as well.  Good luck!

Macy's has started their Memorial Day sale.  Go to Macys.com to print out a savings pass.  Also, remember when a price tage ends with $.97 the price is always lower than the price on the tag.  I went to Target this week with my coupons and got some great deals.  The Magnum ice cream bars are on sale for $3.29.  I got a $1.00 off coupon from this past Sunday newspaper and also printed a $1.00 off coupon off Target.com.  Remember,  Target lets you use one manufacturer coupon and one Target coupon for each item.  I ended up paying $1.29 for each box of ice cream I purchased.  The Suave body wash is also on sale for $1.59 this week at Target.  There was a buy one, get one free coupon in the newspaper.  When the cashier swiped the coupons, they came up as $3.00 off.  I also had a coupon that was $.75 off the body wash so I ended up getting six bottles for FREE.  I also had buy one, get one free Degree deodorant coupo...

Do you use Cantu Shea Butter products?  If so, you need to head to Walgreen's this week.  The products are $4.99 but you get a $4.00 Register Reward for the purchase.  You can use Register Rewards on later purchases in the store.  If you buy more than one product make sure you pay for them separately because they will only give you one coupon per purchase.  Gas is also $3.59 a gallon at Sam's Club in Temple, Texas with a membership card.  It is $3.79 without the card.  I have been informed of similar prices in different states so check in your area especially if you plan to travel for Memorial Day and need to fill up the tank.
