A friend posted this on a message board I frequent, and I thought I would pass it along here as well. Apparently Hearst Magazines does this periodically during the year, and it was last done before the holidays. For $5 you can subscribe to some very popular magazines, but I believe this is only good through Valentine's Day (don't quote me though...LOL!) I am looking at trying Country Living. For $5, it is hard to say no. Enjoy!

Toy Savings At Target
If you plan on purchasing any toys for holiday gifts, you may want to check out the coupons available from Target at the link below.

There are many coupons available for a wide variety of toys. Holiday gifts add up, so save some money by using a few coupons. I hope there are a few that will work for you.
Later this week I will give some of my favorite sites for finding good deals on baby and kids products including holiday gift reviews and ideas. Stay tuned!

Finding a Bargain
I have been searching for a few items lately that I really want, but I don't want to spend a lot of money.
1) A Halloween Costume-Yes, Halloween seems forever away, but I learned the hard way last year that you have to shop early if you are looking for a particular costume. Last year I fell in love with the pirate costume from Old Navy, I waited for an upcoming sale, went to the store to save on shipping, and then found out the costume was only available online and was now sold out. I should have just ordered it earlier and not worried about the sale in this case. My desire to get the costume at a lower price caused me to miss out...almost. I did end up finding a used pirate costume from the same store on ebay, but I paid almost the same as a new one to get it and have it shipped. I just had to fall in love with the hot costume for toddlers!
This year, I started looking earlier. We picked a Thomas costume that I found online at Target. It retails for almost $30 plus shipping on their site! This time ebay is my friend. I am getting the costume for less than half that price and shipping is very reasonable.
2) A Purse-I fell in love with a Vera Bradley microfiber purse. I was shocked at the price tag of $90. I again went to ebay and was able to find it for a slight discount including the shipping.
No, I don't buy everything off of ebay, but there are some good deals there if you know what you are looking for. I do comparison shop frequently between online stores, brick and mortar stores, catalogs, and ebay. Saving a few dollars is always worth the extra effort.
B. is going to be such a cute Thomas the Tank Engine! I can only imagine how excited he will be when we show him the costume.
I am off to count the days until my purse arrives!
