Got t-shirts?

If you’ve been lusting after a shirt or two from Threadless, you should know that today you can take 20% off more items with coupon code PDAY20.

Alternatively, Children’s Place is offering free shipping on every order today, with their President’s Day sale stuff including shirts that start at just $6. And in addition to that, you can apply coupon code T2G2012 for another 15% off.

Either way, you can get some cute shirts for the kids. Of course, if you go the Threadless route, you can get some cute shirts for you, too.

Another one-day goody, at Soft!

Oooooooh, one of my very favorite kids’ clothing stores ever is offering an incredible deal today—in honor of President’s Day, Soft Clothing is having a flash sale today only. Take 40% off your purchase with coupon code president12. 40%!! That’s 40% off almost everything, from their soft cotton flat-seamed clothing suitable for even the most picky sensory-sensitive kid in your life to their books and toys.

Heck, even if your kid doesn’t have sensory sensitivities, their stuff is just plain cute. And at 40% off, it’s a steal, too.

Crocs in the spotlight

One of the featured deals today at 6pm.com is up to 75% off Crocs, and that’s particularly good news if you have little ones, as most of the styles I was looking at for my kids are already sold out in all but toddler sizes. (Don’t worry, as the prices go up, more sizes are left.)

I have to say that I find there’s really no substitute for Crocs when we go camping, or when the kids play out in the woods. I think everything they wear should be easily hosed off after messy excursions. What?

Stock up while the getting’s good

I do love a good sale at Lands’ End, it’s true. The only thing I love more is when a good sale there also qualifies for an awesome coupon.

Right now you can use coupon code SPRINGSHIP with PIN 6212 to get free shipping and 25% off on any order! What’s even better is that it works on clearance and Canvas items, too.

I’m not admitting to anything, but if I had just purchased an adorable swimsuit and a raincoat for my very picky and hard-to-fit teenager because it’s rare for the Canvas stuff (which runs smaller/thinner) to be both on sale and coupon-eligible, theoretically I would’ve gotten a great deal. Just sayin’.

Scooter, anyone?

If you have a kid dying for a scooter, check out this Fuzion Hawk 2 version today at Amazon; the red one is only $20 (down from $50)!

My kids were never big on their scooters until we started taking them camping. Turns out that campgrounds are particularly good for… uhhh… scootering (?) around. (Also, I like to steal their scooters and ride around there, as well. I figure it’s a good balance of “Oh my gosh, Mom, you’re so embarrassing!” and people we’ll probably never see again.)

Train table, LEGO table, fun table

Did you happen to take a look at today’s deal over at Kids.Woot? You get a KidKraft self-storing 2-in-1 activity table, complete with the train set to use on one side of the board and LEGO-compatible blocks to use on the other side. It’s just $65 shipped, which is a nice savings (for comparison: Amazon’s current price is $90).

This is one of those big items where I feel like the savings are somehow magically doubled because it’s so heavy to ship. That may not be logical, but there you have it.

Hey, it’s Wednesday

I am slowly reacquainting myself with the actual calendar. Like, today is Wednesday! January something, right? No? Well, it is Wednesday, even if I did lose a few weeks in there somewhere.

Wednesday means Kohls, and that means everything’s on sale, plus there’s tons of ways to sweeten the deal.

For starters, everyone gets $10 Kohls Cash for every $50 spent, and shipping is automatically free on your $75+ order. (Don’t forget that you can do no-hassle returns to your local Kohls store of anything you buy online. I once ordered about a dozen pairs of jeans to try on in the comfort of my home, then returned the rejects.)

If you have a Kohls charge card, you can use code HEART30 for an extra 30% off your purchase, and code SWEETSHIP will give you free shipping on any purchase. No Kohls card? No problem—you can still use code SMS2019 for an extra 20% off your purchase.

It just makes Wednesdays a little more bearable, doesn’t it?

More fun than a bundle

The President’s Day Sale is on over at Scholastic, and that means you can take an additional 20% off everything (even sale items) with coupon code PRES12.

If your gift closet is feeling a little bare, search on fundles to find two great I Spy deals—The Pirate Treasure Fundle is filled with pirate-themed gaming, and the Riddle Master Fundle is perfect for your little wordplay fan. Each is just $9.99, or about $8 after coupon, and you can ship up to three sets for just $5.99 (so basically, buy three, and the coupon covers your shipping).

As an added bonus, “fundle” is entertaining to say. Especially if you say it over and over really quickly. I mean, I assume.

Nommy Valentines

My children are past the age of needing a big box o’ Valentine’s Day cards to take to school, but if they weren’t, you can bet I’d be buying a couple of boxes of Chocolate Scratch & Sniff cards from Amazon with free Prime shipping. Yum.

On the one hand, $8 delivered for 24 cards is more than the $3 or $4 I’d pay by hitting the store. On the other hand, 1) I don’t have to go to the store, and 2) they smell like chocolate. So.

Let them lounge around

I’m totally digging today’s Kids.Woot offering—it’s a KidKraft adjustable lounger, and I’m feeling like just hanging out and reading for a while every time I look at the pictures. Comfy!

Their price today is $60 + $5 for shipping, which is still $20 less than current Amazon price.

Remember: The more comfortable you can make it for the kids on the floor, the better the chance they won’t steal your spot on the couch.
