This has definitely been the week for FREE tax preparation offers – probably because the end of January has come and gone and now you should have all the paperwork you need to file your taxes! Are you done yet? If not, then you might want to check out the offers from both H&R Block and Turbo Tax. As we mentioned before, this might be a good time to create your FREE account and lock in the deal for your FREE taxes.
Plus, don’t miss this week’s share on making your own laundry detergent – this time the scented version. Thank you for your kind comments regarding our sensitive skin laundry detergent and mentions how it has worked for you! We’re glad you love it and love the scented version just as well!
We have gone through each of the following deals with a fine-toothed comb so you can know these deals are still available (some prices may have changed a bit but are still close to the original posting price)! Make sure to check the list twice so you don’t miss anything this weekend!
Walmart has a great Value of the Day deal today for those of you looking for a nice Valentine’s gift for your spouse. Most of our special occasion budgets are around $20, so something like this is PERFECT, fits into the budget and priceless. And if you have followed us for very long, you know that they photo deals are some of our favorites to give and get!
Personalize this frame to commemorate your wedding day, anniversary, or any other occasion, you can now cherish that special moment forever. Designed to hold a beautiful 4″x6″ picture, this frame has elegant beveled edges and a classic easel back. You can engrave your names on the frame to highlight the photo. You have the option of adding gift wrap to this couple photo frame in white tissue paper finished with a gold cord ribbon. You can also include a personal note.
Walmart is also guaranteeing delivery by Valentine’s Day. So with these factors, we thought that this was worth mentioning as a nice gift option for Valentine’s Day at a decent price! We’re not sure if you can find a gift like this for less because the ones we have seen are a lot more!
Here’s the deal:
The above pictured photo frame is on sale right now for $16 (down from $20)
You can order it HERE and personalize it with your own names and the names will be etched in the glass

Alex knows that I don’t enjoy any gifts he gives me (like jewelry or flowers!) unless he got a good deal and didn’t spend very much because he is doing a two things: thinking about me and thinking about our future. There isn’t too many things more romantic than that
So with that in mind, you can grab a good deal for a charm bracelet that is designer inspired without that hefty price. This would also be perfect for the daughters, or as a gift to a friend, or even a gift exchange that your little girls might have with their friends! The possibilities are endless when it is so cheap especially!
The above Gold Charm bracelet is on sale for $1.28 plus .89 shipping = final is $2.17 shipped!
In addition, you can also get a similar deal on the same bracelet but Silver in color. It is on sale for $2.39 plus FREE shipping = final is $2.39 shipped!
We are reposting this deal as we posted it yesterday not knowing how long it was good for, but we discovered that this is good until 2/6 or while supplies last!
YAY – so excited that American Greetings is offering this deal again as it is such a sweet deal! This is a super sweet one and one to definitely not miss even if you don’t have any special occasions coming up but just simply as a “just because” and really make someone’s day!
For .99, you can take just a minute or two and create a personalized greeting card to a special someone. You CAN pick and occasion (like Valentine’s Day) or just simply a card for no reason but because you care! The best part is, they make this super easy as there site is easy to use, you will pay .99, then they will send your personalized card to your recipient and the .99 includes the cost of the stamp.
You cannot get a personalized greeting card for under .99 mailed to your recipient!
It is worth grabbing right now and then enjoy the rest of your day!
Plus, don’t miss the homemade laundry detergent recipe we mentioned this week! We know that many of you were excited and have been making the detergent! Don’t forget that one of the steps is a great science experiment for the kids – but no matter what it looks like, don’t eat the meringue-looking ingredient. You better check it out to see what we mean.
Have you been noticing that we reference ALL YOU coupons for many of our store matchups but at the same time knew the $19.95 annual subscription price was a bit high to “try a magazine”? The good news is ALL YOU is offering their magazine for a 6-month subscription at $1 per magazine for just a few days longer!

This is a very high value for this product. Pillsbury coupons are usually a lower value or this value, but off three, etc. So to get a $1.10 discount is great!
These cookie shapes can be nice to have for quick last minute dessert needs, but better yet, this coupon expires 2/26/12 if printed today (and you will want to do so as it will disappear very quickly!). So with the expiration date being after Valentine’s Day, the Valentine’s shape cookies will go on clearance and then with your coupon you might be able to get nearly FREE cookies! Print your coupon now and wait until after Valentine’s Day to get the best deals!

This is my absolute FAVORITE candy! It is a special treat to have. So I was excited to see that it is cheap on Amazon right now at only $4.37 each 15-ct. box shipped FREE with Amazon Prime or a $25 or more purchase. This comes as a shipment of 3 15-ct. boxes and so you have 3 special people that you can give one too!
This one is bit tricky to find, but a good deal is sometimes that way
Here’s how to get 3 15-ct. boxes of Ferrero Rocher Chocolates for $13.10 ($4.37 each box) shipped!
You will see the sale price of $20.75 for all three.
Underneath the price, look for this option for other prices:
Then click on the “3 new” and scroll down until you see the Amazon Warehouse deal of a pack of three 15 ct. for $13.10 shipped FREE with Amazon Prime or a $25 or more purchase and add it to your cart and checkout = final is $4.37 each box!
Please note: The 15% discount is for the Subscribe and Save option. Amazon states that you can cancel subscribe and save at any time, including right after the order. So if you do not intend to continue having them automatically delivered, cancel the subscribe and save soon after so you do not forget (wait for your items to ship before canceling as it will cancel your current order)!
We shared this really, really, cute idea for Valentines last year and wanted to share this idea again! This will cost you very little out of pocket, but make quite an impression! It would be so cute for friends and family!
So the idea you can do to make these even more fun is to take a picture of your child with their hand outstretched. Then when your FREE cards arrive, just cut a slit in the top and bottom of where the picture of the hand is and slip a sucker in the picture card!
This has been a crazy week of giveaways if you’ve been following closely! We thought we would award them all here and minimize the suspense for you. We want to thank you all for entering and making this week so much fun! So without more ado, let’s get the drumroll started…
