The lazy shopper’s guide to Black Friday deals

November 29, 2013

The video footage of the brawls at Walmart last night . . . I cannot even. While people are going shopping in droves, I’m hiding out home in a panic, hoping that no emergency could possibly force me into a store today.  (Or this month.) I am truly hoping that I can avoid going to the mall altogether from now until Christmas. I hate the crowds. That being said, there are some stellar online deals happening right now, and I did take advantage of some sales from the comfort of my living room this morning. Dresses at Tea Collection are $15. I repeat. Dresses at Tea Collection are $15. People often ask me how I can afford to outfit the girls in these clothes. This is how. I usually stock up for the season when they have these sales, and buy ahead for the following season as well. Durable, adorable dresses from a globally-minded company. Love. image Gap is having a site-wide sale of 50% off with the code BLKFRIDAY. My friend Amber says that this black pencil skirt is awesomely flattering for curvy girls, and based on the reviews it seems many agree. I just got it half off for $25. image   Banana Republic is also having a site-wide sale at 40% off everything. The code is BRGIVING. I’ve had my eye on this dress for months. It was originally $110, then went down to $89, and I got it for 40% off that. Happy dance. image   The Land of Nod has FREE Shipping and 15% off your entire order now thru Monday. You can make a Blurb book from your instagram photos. They’ve got 30% on printed books with the code SAVE30. Tiny Prints, a great source for Christmas cards and photo books, has a site-wide sale with 50% off. Everything is always on sale at Zulily. Pottery Barn has a sale on a lot of gifty-type items right now, as does Pottery Barn Kids. Old Navy also has a ton of stuff on sale. V-Neck sweaters are only $20. Madewell has a 25% site-wide sale going on right now. I am in love with their easy slip-on dresses. I may have three of the same dress in different colors. J. Crew is having a site-wide sale (30% off with the code HOLIDAY) but their less expensive Factory Store is 50% off everything. What what. India has this dress in coral and I just snagged it in turquoise for $25.   image If you are looking for toys, Yoox has a ton of really unique toys and the site is 15% with the code THANKYOU. And Melissa and Doug are a great source for educational toys . . . they’ve got 50% select items and free shipping. These are some of the stores I perused this evening. Have you found any other online sales that are worth checking out?
