    One reason I absolutely love Dr. Seuss’s books is they are great for everyone of all ages! In fact, one of my favorite books, Oh, the Places You’ll Go, is a gift I like to give to high school and college graduates and it is always well-appreciated. March is unofficially Dr. Seuss’s month since his birthday is March 2nd, and right now, you can get 5 books by Dr. Seuss plus a FREE backpack for only $5.95 shipped when you join the Dr. Seuss & His Friends book club! The 5 hardcover books you’ll receive are:

    • The Cat in the Hat
    • Mr. Brown Can Moo
    • Ten Apples On Top

    By joining the Dr. Seuss & His Friends book club, you’ll receive 3 hardcover books by Dr. Seuss per month for less than $5 per book. You can control your membership online and cancel anytime. They also guarantee 100% satisfaction, so if you are unhappy with your purchase, you can return the books (but keep the backpack) for a full refund.

    Important: This is a monthly book club that will automatically charge your account and send you books each month unless you cancel your membership (if you only want the 5 books and backpack for $5.95, make sure to cancel your membership when you receive your products).

    Save!: Photo Book Deals Round-Up 2/18

    I absolutely LOVE this picture from my wedding almost 5 years ago. Unfortunately, along with many other wedding photos, it still has not made it’s way into any sort of photo album for my husband and I to look at and reminisce about that wonderful day. I have prints, a nice wedding scrapbook, and a bunch of wedding embellishments with maybe 3 scrapbook pages completed…somewhere. So, yes, it has taken me almost 5 years to finally admit that I will never have time to finish our wedding scrapbook, and I might as well put our favorite photos into a photo book. Has this ever happened to you?

    Luckily for me, at the same moment I thought of making a photo book of my wedding, a good number of websites are having photo book sales, yay! Here’s what I found:

    • Mixbook: Up to 40% off everything through Monday, 2/18, with coupon code LOVEMX.
    • Walgreens Photo: 12×12 custom cover photo book for only $22 (reg. $49.99) through Wednesday, 2/20, with coupon code CUSTOM12X12. Make sure to check out all of their special offers for details.
    • Picaboo: 50% off classic books, cards, calendars, and canvas prints through Wednesday, 2/20, with code PRESIDENT50. New customers get 55% off photo books.
    • Shutterfly: Up to 30% off photo books through Wednesday, 2/20. Also, get FREE shipping on orders of $30 or more with code SHIP30, and save 20% on canvas prints, acrylic prints, dimensional wall art, magnets, and mouse pads (make sure to check out all of their special offers).
    • Tiny Prints: Up to 30% off photo books through Wednesday, 2/20. Also, get FREE shipping on orders of $30 or more with code fship30, and save 15% sitewide through Tuesday, 2/19, with code 15febsw.
    • Wedding Paper Divas: Up to 30% off wedding photo books through Wednesday, 2/20. Also, get FREE shipping on orders of $30 or more with code FSHIP30.
    • My Publisher: 50% off photo books and canvas prints orders over $100 or 25% off photo books and canvas prints orders over $50 through Tuesday, February 19th, with code FEB2550. New customers also get a FREE copy of their photo book with their first order.
    • Smilebooks: 40% off all photo books soft covers through Sunday, 3/17, with coupon code CRAZYPATRICK40.
    • *Snapfish: 60% off 2 or more photo books through Monday, 2/25, with coupon code PRESBOOKS; 40% off additional photo book pages through Thursday, 2/28, with coupon code 40PAGES; and FREE shipping on orders of $30 or more through 2/28 with coupon code FEBFS30 (*Updated 2/20 – Thanks Katie!)

    Leave me a comment below if you know of any other great photo book deals I’ve missed! I would also love to know what you’re next photo book or scrapbook project is! After I finish our wedding, I will be putting together some photo books of my daughter: newborn photos, her first year, her second year, and maybe one for each birthday party. I would also like to maybe put one together of my honeymoon.

    Save & Give!: Restaurant.com Double Deals Program & Feed It Forward

    November 29, 2012 Filled under Deals/Discounts, Food Joy, Pay It Forward, Restaurants, Savings Joy
    No Comments

    A few weeks ago, I had the privilege of attending an event at Restaurant.com‘s headquarters to learn more about the company, their website, and some great offers they have going on for the holidays. In case you are unfamiliar with Restaurant.com, they offer restaurant gift certificates at a discounted price. For example, most $25 restaurant gift certificates only cost $10. They also often have promo codes to get an even deeper discount. I especially love to purchase gift certificates from Restaurant.com for gifts! You can choose gift certificates for specific restaurants (over 18,000 nationwide) or get general gift cards or eGift cards to send by email.

    I have been using Restaurant.com for a few years now, but I thought it was interesting to learn that there is no money passed between the company and the restaurants. Restaurant.com is simply a way for restaurants to attract more customers by offering their gift certificates at a discounted rate. The cost is controlled by putting a minimum for each purchase when a gift certificate is used. I think the idea is pretty clever!

    I have not used a Restaurant.com gift certificate for myself in awhile (we usually buy them for gifts to others), but I was happy to find out that they now have restaurant reviews on their website. The neat thing about it is that they are able to verify whether or not a reviewer actually ate at a restaurant and will only let a review be submitted if that reviewer used a Restaurant.com gift certificate at that particular restaurant. This ensures that the review is really authentic and trustworthy!

    Restaurant.com has a couple of exciting things happening right now:

    Double Deals Program

    Restaurant.com just launched their Double Deals program which allows you to buy a $25 Restaurant.com eGift card and a $25 voucher to use a participating Double Deals business ($50 worth in gift cards) for just $25. This is a great deal just in time for the holidays! Click here for more information.

    Feed It Forward: Celebrate the Spirit of Giving

    Every year, Restaurant.com runs a program called Feed It Forward, which allows you to send FREE $10 Restaurant.com eGift cards to anyone on your list! This year, the promotion runs from today, November 29th, through January 1st, 2013, and you can send up to 100 $10 Restaurant.com eGift cards per day for FREE by accessing the Feed It Forward website and either logging into your Restaurant.com or sending them through Facebook! I have done this every year for the past 3 years and it feels great being able to give pretty much everyone I know a gift for the holidays. Head over to the Feed It Forward website to participate.
