Bargains to Quell Back-to-Work Woes

Posted by The Editorial Desk / Monday, January 4th, 2010

Good morning, shoppers! Here’s hoping you’re staying warm. For those of you heading back to work for the first day after a long vacay, as well as for those of you who, like me, still had a bit of a tough time adjusting to an early-morning alarm after a long weekend, I figured today would be the perfect time to share a bit of sweet sale news.

Did you recently snap some amazing holiday photos that you can’t wait to get printed? Snapfish.com is offering 50 4 x 6 prints for 50 cents (additional prints are 9 cents each) with the code “NEWYEAR50″ through this Thursday, Jan. 7. Also, you can score a free photo calendar (not including tax and shipping) at shutterfly.com with the code “CALENDAR2010″ through this Wednesday, Jan. 6.

Have beauty products on the brain thanks to skin that dislikes the cold weather as much as the rest of your body does? Good news: Sephora is now offering several jumbo sizes of best-selling beauty products, including Smashbox Jumbo Photo Finish Foundation Primer (50 percent bigger than usual), a $72 value for $49. Also, on page five of our January issue — on newsstands now, showcasing our redesign — you’ll find exclusive beauty deals from PR at Partners, makeup artist to the stars Victoria Stiles, paintandpowderstore.com and Bellacara. That is  not to mention other fab deals from favorite stores like National Jean Company.

Plan to heat up your stove a lot more now that it’s super-cold outside? Perhaps some new All-Clad cookware could help? If so, visit williams-sonoma.com, which is now offering amazing deals on the new All-Clad d5 collection.

Could you use some new warm and cuddly clothes, too? It’s time for the Semi-Annual Sale at Ann Taylor stores and anntaylor.com, featuring 30- to 70-percent savings.

Then again, if nothing makes you feel better than brightening someone else’s day, perhaps flowers are what you’re after? If so, Proflowers is offering 15 assorted tulips for $19.99 or a 25-percent discount site-wide with the code “NEWYEAR25″  (minimum $29 order).

Happy shopping! Stay warm.
