Hi Guys,
Things have been C-R-A-Z-Y for us with the in-laws from Germany coming and going, Disneyland, birthdays, illnesses, Halloween… and now I have 3 extra kids for the next week while some friends are out of town. I feel like I have been going a million miles an hour and I’m about to fall on my face!
Usually I set all my blog posts the night before, since my days are filled with homeschooling and special time with my family, but tonight (after all that Trick-or-Treating) I’m wiped out!
So, I’ll get the Target deals and any other hot deals going after I put all the kiddos to bed – assuming I don’t really fall on my face! 
Thanks for your patience!
I can’t wait until things slow down and I can start scoping out all the great Holiday sales, especially the Black Friday sales that are only a few weeks away!! I have a feeling the Holidays are going to feel like a whirlwind, too (ugh!).
Enjoy your Sunday, everyone… and I promise to get deals up on Monday!
Happy Savings and Many Blessings,
Rach

Are you ready for this? Stores are ramping up for your holiday dollars. Expect Black Friday circular leaks starting in week 2 of this month.
The important thing to remember is that although sales will be good before Black Friday, they will most likely be as good or better on BF and in December. There’s no no need to rush through your shopping in fear that you’ll miss a deal. The exception? Photo gifts and other custom items. You’ll find the best deals on them during the second half of this month.
I’ll be bringing you tons of money-saving shopping tips and gift ideas starting in week two.
Week 1:
- Look for a 30% off coupon code for Gymboree to appear within the next couple of days. They’ve released one for the past three years. We should also see one for about 20% off at Crazy 8.
- Baby gear closeout deals continue as stores try to clear out last year’s models. Look for big discounts from Fisher Price, Graco and more at various retailers. Expect 30% to 50% off.
- Target releases its toy coupons.
- I’ve got my eye out for a good code for The Children’s Place. They usually release one about this time.
Week 2:
- Look out for “friends and family” coupons to the tune of 20% to 30% off your purchase. Keep an eye on Gap brands, Kmart, and Sears
- The Babies R Us / Toys R Us Veterans Day sale typically offers some coupons and deals. I’ll post ‘em when I see ‘em.
- Expect several good coupon codes for shoes from retailers like Shoes.com, Shoebuy.com, and more. We’ve seen $20 off $50, 20% off, and others.
- Look for some good deals on photo gifts. Expect at least 25% off.
Week 3:
- The quiet before the storm. Some stores and sites will actually start their sales before Thanksgiving.
- Last year we saw a 30% off coupon for PBS.com around the 17th.
Week 4:
Black Friday. Need I say more?
- Expect big discounts on toys (25% off and more), a four-day baby sale, and 40% to 70% off kids’ shoes from Amazon.
- Old Navy’s Black Friday sales is one of the best out there. It’s my favorite time to stock up on Performance Fleece.
- Look for a 50% off sale at Kohls.
In December, week 1: Great deals on photo gifts and prints start in week 1 of December. 20% to 30% off.

Then you can get your choice of a Baby Einstein book, cd or 25% off a Little Einstein product of your choice at The Disney Store. Or you can redeem up to four dvds for full value of $15.99.
Check out this
website to get a full explanation as to how to get this refund. The Campaign for a Commercial free Childhood pushed Disney to offer this refund for claiming the Baby Einstein dvds were educational.

I hope everyone has a wonderful and SAFE Halloween! The kids are so excited. Pictures will be posted tonight!
Here is some fun photos of the kids carving out their pumpkins the other night. Gavyn loved it.
Zoe on the other hand made disgusted faces everytime she touched the pumpkin guts. She was not to impressed.
And the finished project. We let the kids tell us what they wanted for faces. Zoe insisted hearts.
