If you are scrambling around at the last minute for some great gifts, Sears has a few offers running Friday and Saturday (12/23-12/24) that might be worth browsing.
First things first, make sure you grab the Savings Pass from the bottom of the weekly ad to get an extra 15% off Clothing, Intimates, Accessories, Fragrances and Cosmetics, or 10% off Bed, Bath, Housewares & Luggage!
Here are three deals that caught my eye:
- For the handy person on your list, save up to 50% on all Craftsman Mechanics tool sets.
- Get 65% off all sweaters, coats, and pajamas for the whole family.
- And if you are in need of more toys, they are all B1G1 – including brands like Lego, Barbie, Disney Princess, and K’Nex.
Shop Taste of Home has a great deal on calendars for 2012! All of their calendars are 91% off, making them 99¢.
They have kittens, puppies, country, country churches, and more!
Shipping is $5.99 for orders less than $10, so the more you buy the better of a deal you are getting. You could get 1 for $6.98 or 10 for $15.98 ($1.59 ea.).
They also have free shipping on orders over $20.
If you have completely exhausted your gift budget, but still have a gift or two to give, here is an idea for you: FREE magazine subscriptions!
My rule of thumb for a magazine is not to pay more than $5 for one year. Of course, FREE is always preferred around here and Recyclebank makes it really easy to earn great free magazines.
Right now they have tons of popular magazines for 115 points each:
Good Housekeeping, Whole Living Road & Track, Bazaar, Seventeen, Popular Mechanics, Town & Country, Everyday Food and Car & Driver
If you haven’t signed up for Recyclebank yet, you can easily earn enough points (a total of 490) for 4 free magazines by completing all the active point earning opportunities! (It will take a few minutes, but hey, it’s a free gift!)
Available Recyclebank Earn Opportunities

One tip if you want to give the magazine as a last minute stocking stuffer: Head to Amazon and search for the magazine you get with the Recyclebank points. Look for the line that says “Giving a gift?” and easily print a gift notification card like the one above to let your recipient know to expect their first issue. (They say Amazon on them, but the gift recipient doesn’t have to know it didn’t cost you anything!)

I wasn’t meaning to shop for me, but I found this cute dress for only $9 bucks. It can be worn a ton of different ways! I’m thinking this might be great for our Christmas Eve lunch.
