This is an online only sale at Ann Taylor Loft

Some prices dropped last night, but inventory seems to be limited and selling out quickly. A number of items are $3.88-$9.88 before the $25 off %50 discount. Shipping is a flat $6.

Use code 89400012 for $25 off $50. It’s valid on clearance, sale and regularly priced items.

Salute to Chocolate!

Posted by Lisa

Did y’all cash in on the Walgreen’s deal this week? With their store coupons (from the Sunday paper) and my manufacturer coupons, I was able to score 14 Dove Silky Smooth candy bars for 50c each. Just what my back side needs. Then I had a cashier and a store mgr. who didn’t know how to work it all into the system, so I ended up paying $3.28 for all 14 bars.

I’m munchin’ on one right now because today was a very difficult day for me. Sometimes the world’s a nicer place when I have a big ol’ hunk of chocolate in my hand. Nobody better touch my other 13.

Another Great Christmas Idea

Posted by Lisa

Botanic Choice has a 12-spice basket (contents) for $10. Add 2 to cart, and apply coupon code EMLJBB to get them both for $5 with free shipping.  You might have to put one in your cart, apply the coupon and then go back and change the quantity to 2.

So you get 2 baskets for $5!

Country Casserole

Posted by Lisa

I’m not a big fan of mushy food casseroles, but this looks and sounds so yummy.  How can I resist anything with noodles and cheese?  Throw in some chocolate and it would be the perfect and complete (dessert included) meal-in-one dish!
