Common Sense With Money

Update, this deal is no longer available.

Have a tween or teen who loves to dance on your gift list? Amazon has Dance Dance Revolution Hottest Party 2 with Dance Mat for Wii for $24.99. Bump your order up to over $25 and get free shipping. If you are interested on this deal, make sure to order from Amazon. While the landing page may show a price of $59.99, look on the right under “More Buying Choices”, and you will see that Amazon itself is selling this for $24.99.

I am not a tween or teen but I love to dance and I just jumped on this HOT deal! It should provide some good cardio exercise for me and I need that. I also can imagine the fun it provides watching others and myself dance.

Take advantage of FREE Shipping when you shop Victoria’s Secret.com.  Just use the code SHIPFREE (code is good TODAY 11/6 ONLY).  PLUS, on any orders over $10 a Secret Rewards Card with a minimum value of $10 (and as much as $500) will be added to your order. You won’t know the value of your order until you get your package in the mail. But if you order something around $10, with free shipping, and get a Rewards Card of at least $10, that’s a pretty great deal think.

OK, here’s my confession, I know that you can order and combine codes when you shop VS online, but I have never done this. I want to hear your scenarios if you are an experienced Victoria’s Secret buyer. Please share with us in the comments section.

Here are a three codes that could be used. You can use up to three codes per order:

VSPINKBAG – Free limited edition tote with any Victoria’s Secret Pink purchase. Automatically added to your purchase at checkout exp 11/18/09
FREERUSH – Free lipgloss with purchase of sweaters ($21 value). Automatically added to your purchase at checkout exp 11/18/09
CLOTH20 – to get 20% off one piece of clothing

Here’s a scenario shared by Vicky:

• Order sweater $19
• Apply the following codes –

SHIPFREE
CLOTH20
FREERUSH

• Paid $15.64 for the sweater, got the gloss free ($21 value) and free shipping.

Plus if you are new to Ebates and go through them to complete this purchase you get $5 bonus and 4% Cash back.  Pretty sweet deal!  Thanks Vicky!
