TODAY ONLY! $30 for $100 Worth of Personalized Photo Books, Cards and Calendars From Picaboo

Bookmark and Share 

————————————————————-
On a personal note:  I bought a similar Picaboo offer the last time it was on Groupon  and was so happy with the quality and savings (it’s even cheaper today ~ probably because this deal comes direct from Picaboo). Since I don’t have the time to dedicate to traditional scrapbook projects, I have found  that Picaboo photo books are an easy way for me to capture photos and family memories.  I really like the “coffee table” quality of their books and their easy-to-personalize designs for archiving my photos ~ the end result looked like a professional put this together (but it had nothing to do with my lame skills).  All that to say, at $30 for $100 worth of Picaboo products…

This is a REALLY GREAT deal you might want to consider!
————————————————————-

Save 70% OFF With Today’s Picaboo Photo Deal!

 Just in time to preserve your summer vacation and end-of-school photos and memories, Picaboo has launched a great offer of 70% OFF the regular price of any photo books, cards, and calendars from their site!  For $30 you get $100 worth of products.  Offer must be purchased today, but can be used through December 30, 2012.

Not familiar with Picaboo? Check out their collection of customizable photo products at their website here.

How to find and get the offer:

  1. Go here to sign up for a Picaboo account if you don’t already have one.
  2. Buy the $30 for $100 deal from Picaboo before the end of the day ~ Thursday, June 14, 2012.  You do have until December 30, 2012 to create your personalized items with this deal, so this could be a great way to get a head start on some creative Christmas gifts, too!

Savings Tip:  If you miss this deal today, be sure to check out Picaboo’s “Specials” section of their website.  They almost always have a coupon code for some sort of savings on their products.  I’ve yet to see anything as good as this deal, though (so I hope you don’t miss out).

Don’t Miss 50% OFF The Classic Cafe in Roanoke

Bookmark and Share

Woo-hoo ~ The 50% OFF Classic Cafe Offer Is Back!

On a personal note: This is one of the few offers that we have seen repeated on Groupon over the last couple of years. We have purchased it every time, and are so happy to see this Groupon roll back around! The food at Classic Cafe is melt-in-your-mouth incredible and service always great.  There is a nice range of choices on the menu and most of their ingredients are locally sourced. I particularly like knowing that their beef is hormone- and antibiotic-free and all grain-fed.  You really can taste the difference. 

In a nutshell, getting a meal at Classic Cafe at half price is a steal. Don’t miss this one…

Groupon launched a savings offer of 50% OFF Lunch or Dinner at The  Classic Cafe in Roanoke. When you buy today’s Groupon for $10, you will get a gift certificate for $20 towards lunch or for $30 you will get $60 towards dinner at The Classic Cafe ~ valid until October 24, 2012.

How to get the Offer:

  1. Go here to sign up for today’s 50% OFF deal.
  2. Select Fort Worth as Your Groupon City and choose whether you want the Lunch or Dinner deal (or you can purchase both if you wish).  If the deal doesn’t show up on the front page, go to the “All Deals” menu and navigate to the offer.
  3. Buy your Groupon before the end of the day.
    You do have until October 24 to use your Groupon. Since there is a limited quantity of these certificates available, I would recommend not waiting too long to make your purchase.

Enjoy and Share! :)

Dads & Grads Sale: Up to 60% OFF GPS Units at Amazon

Bookmark and Share

Looking for the perfect Father’s Day or Graduation Gift?  For a limited time, pop over to this link to save up to 60% on Amazon’s GPS special saleThere are lots of great choices, but from our experience, we recommend you look for a GPS unit that includes lifetime map and traffic updates.  It generally doesn’t cost a lot more to add this feature (i.e. add $10 to the base cost for this model).  With all the construction changes happening around DFW, it is worth it to pay a little extra to stay up-to-date. 

Here is a sample of some of the great GPS deals we found that also include FREE Shipping (be sure to select Amazon as the merchant to get free shipping):

 

FREE Shipping Tip:  If you need your GPS unit faster than what the standard free shipping provides, you might want to consider a FREE 1-month trial of Amazon Prime which will get you FREE 2-day shipping on almost anything with no minimum order. There are other nifty benefits like unlimited instant streaming of thousands of movies and TV shows with Prime instant videos and FREE check-out of Kindle Books. Find out more here.

GREAT OFFER: $50 Gets You An Eye Exam and $150 Towards Prescription Glasses at Eyes Nouveau (Southlake or Hulen)

Bookmark and Share

Personally speaking: I bought this deal at the end of last year myself, and can highly recommend Eyes Nouveau ~ they have a great selection of fashion frames, state-of-the-art exam technology, and a really helpful staff.  This is a fantastic deal if new specs or an eye check-up are on your “to buy/to do” list ~ especially since the voucher from Groupon Fort Worth is good for a year. Here’s the scoop…

Groupon has a terrific offer this week if you are in need of new glasses.  For $50 you get a $99 Eye Exam and $150 towards Prescription Glasses at Eyes Nouveau.  And, if you don’t need an eye exam, you can instead use the voucher to get $200 towards any in-store frames with prescription lenses.

Do note that you do have to buy this offer by the end of this week, but the Groupon voucher is valid through next year (through June 5, 2013). Use at either of 2 locations in Southlake or in Fort Worth off Hulen Street.

Here are the easy steps for getting this great deal:

  1. Go here to learn more about today’s Eyes Nouveau Groupon deal.
  2. Select Fort Worth as Your Groupon City.
  3. If the Eyes Nouveau deal doesn’t pop up on the front page, find the offer by clicking on the “All Deals ” menu at the top of the page.  Navigate to the “Eyes Nouveau” offer.
  4. Make your appointment with Eyes Nouveau. You have a year to use this voucher and order your new specs (voucher expires June 5, 2013).
  5. That’s it! Easy-breezy, right?
