Save on Fun Learning Toys From Melissa & Doug (Through Thursday, December 15)

Hopefully you were able to get the $10 Credit at Rue La La last week.   If so, don’t forget to use it to get something free or really cheap before it expires December 31!  Here’s an idea…

Hurry over to  Rue La La‘s kids boutique to find some great Melissa and Doug Toy bargains through Thursday evening. Plus, you can stack your savings with last week’s $10 credit and save up to 75% OFF ~ the Melissa & Doug toys pictured below end up discounted to $5.90 after applying the $10 Credit  (Reg. $24.99).

How to get the offer:

  1. Sign in to Rue La La or join here for FREE. Once you are signed up/signed in…
  2. Find and select the Little Rue “boutique” by scrolling through the discount “boutiques” listed (look for the image below).
  3. Go to the boutique button labeled “Melissa & Doug – Toys” and select the boutique
  4. Make your purchase before 9pm Thursday. There are limited quantities of these items available, so I would recommend not waiting too long to make your purchase.
  5. If you received last week’s $10 Rue La La credit, it will be applied to your total when you check out.

New to Rue La La?

It is worth checking out this flash/daily deal site (owned by PayPal) which offers every day quality brands (like Ariat Boots, Crocs Shoes and Cuisinart Kitchen products) to very high-end items from boutiques (such as Halston, Louis Vuitton, Vera Bradley, Gucci and Stuart Weitzman) ~ all at discount outlet store prices. Every day you’ll find new bargains including beautiful clothes, magazine-page worthy home decor, toys, housewares and lots more!

Rue La La describes themselves as “an exclusive, invitation-only online destination where Members discover premier-brand, private sale Boutiques, each open for just a brief window of time. Our focus is a well-edited collection of sought-after offerings from the best brand names in the world – combined with helpful service.” Membership is invitation-only. And, joining is FREE.

Enjoy and share! :)

Back to School Monday: Save on Educational Toys From Melissa & Doug (Through Wed. August 24)

Did you happen to buy the One Kings Lane Groupon we talked about  last month?  This is your opportunity to stack up your savings on Melissa and Doug Educational Toys that are nicely discounted for the next couple of days at One Kings Lane.  Even if you didn’t get the Groupon, you may want to check out this back-to-school sale toy sale that takes place now through August 24.

Not familiar with One Kings Lane?  OKL is a by-invitation-only daily deals site (free to join) that has been featured for their great bargains on Bravo’s Million Dollar Decorators, People Magazine, Good Housekeeping and more.  Their sales change daily, so it’s a fun place for bargain shoppers looking for great quality and prices on home decor, housewares, shoes, toys, clothing and more. You do have to be quick, as the sales last 2-3 days and items often sell out quickly.  Membership to One Kings Lane is FREE, but you have to be invited to join (and you are officially invited by Frugal in Fort Worth!).

——————————————–

Being the frugal folks we are: as with all purchases and daily deals, we recommend comparing product prices to other online sellers like Amazon or Google Shopping to make sure you are getting the lowest overall price including shipping and taxes.

Enjoy and share! :)

Posted on September 15, 2009 | Leave a comment

I love the American Girl line (great toy concept, attention to detail/quality…not to mention my niece loves this line!). 

A year ago, we took my niece to the AG store and soda shop in Dallas (what a treat, and what an amazing store!).  I think I was as wide-eyed as my niece…two floors full of dolls and all the accessories to match for any occasion.  Their product team has thought of everything it seems (yet they keep coming out with more)!   

I just discovered THREE GREAT SALES (limited time) for American Girl.  These are such GREAT deals (and rare to find this many AG items on sale)!  This is a good time for some early Birthday/Christmas shopping for that special little girl on your list!  The discoveries:

  

Sale #1:  Up to 50% OFF American Girl BOOKS & DOLLS, at Amazon.com (Over 500 American Girl products on Sale)!   Check it out here.  Not only that, but…

Sale #2:  Amazon is also running a BUY 3 GET THE 4TH FREE American Girl Book Sale on a select group of books.  Go here for the sale.  

Sale #3:  And last but not least: The American Girl Store has DVD Videos on Sale for $5/each (ends Sept. 30)!   Click here for the link.

DVD Titles on sale include:

  • Kit Kittredge: An American Girl DVD & Book
  • Molly: An American Girl on the Home Front

PASS IT ON!  Share this post & discovery with friends, parents, and grandparents who would benefit.
