Groupon is offering slightly over 50% off an Earth’s Trek Climbing experience.  This place is AWESOME!  My son went there with boy scouts once and has been hooked ever since!  This is a HUGE indoor climbing gym with tons of rock walls and thrilling stuff!  If you ask me, it is boy heaven!  This deal is for readers in the Baltimore, Washington DC, Annapolis Metropolitan area only as locations for Earth’s Trek are in Tomonium and Columbia.  We go to the Columbia Earth’s Trek from the Eastern Shore of Maryland and it is worth every minute of the commute.  I’m getting in on this deal because my kids need an outlet once the weather turns cold and before the snow hits the ground.  I have 3 boys that are big into ruff and tumble fun.  They provide all the climbing equipments etc.  Its big time FUN – especially for new climbers and thrill seekers!

Today was an AWESOME day of shopping with an AWESOME deal from Office Depot.. My sister and brother in law have a great printer and they only pay $4.99 for ink cartridges.  “What – $4.99?”  Well needless to say I was all ears, but I am still a frugal shopper so I was doing some store comparisons.   Office Depot had my printer on sale for $199.00..   Eeeks – $199.00!  I hadn’t  planned on spending that much!  I  may be frugal here, but I’m not foolish!  Here is what I found;

Office Depot runs these specials where you “give” them your old printer  and they will give you $50.00 towards your new printer.  It just so happened that my new Lexmark Pinnacle Professional Series  was part of their list of approved printers…  hum….  so my search for coupons to reduce the cost was on.  

Lets Make a Deal!

Retail Price on Printer $199.99
Gave them my old Printer for  $50.00 Credit
Gave them an Office Max Coupon for  $10.00 Credit
Gave them a Office Depot Coupon for  $10.00 Credit

Total Cost $132.72 (w/ taxes) that’s a savings of $67.27!  Score! 

Just in case you are unaware, most office supply stores accept competitors coupons. 

Let me give a big thank you to Ed @ Office Depot Store # 2148 for being so patient with all my questions and then all my coupons…Great Job!!! (thanks Amy & Charles!)

There is a **Hot** Groupon coupon available today for Lands End Canvas – A new site launched by Lands End that is being heavily promoted right now on line – hence this great coupon available today.  This deal is through Groupon.  A group buying site that helps everyone save with the power of purchasing in bulk for all kinds of things.   This Groupon deal today is good for $60.00 worth of products at Lands End Canvas and it will only cost you $30.00 through Groupon.  Now if you aren’t familiar with Groupon you need to know that these “fire sales” only last 1 day.  They are meant to create tons of buzz and lots of traffic to a retailer so they do a “fire sale” with a great deal that is hard to pass up for just 1 day.  I think we’ll see quite a bit of this sort of marketing tactic around the holidays.  You can use this coupon on line or in store if you live near a Lands End Canvas.

The fine print states: Expires Jan 9, 2011. Limit 2/person. Valid only at listed location and Landsendcanvas.com. No gift cards may be purchased with coupon. Savings may be deducted from return. Must use in 1 purchase of at least $60.01. No cash back. Tax/shipping not incl’d.
