Shop Green: Ecoist Recycled Handbags on Sale
Posted by Sammiekat on October 23, 2008 in Eco-Friendly
We usually consider the look of purse as the final deciding factor, not what goes into making the purse. It’s sale time at the Ecoist, a fashion and forward thinking company, redefining and restyling the ultimate woman’s accessory: the purse. Made from repurposed materials like food packages, soda bottle labels, rice bags, soda can pull-tabs, candy wrappers, and even movie billboards, these bags make a statement in more than one way. And with sales at 70% off, it’s hard to resist the call this season to buy something recycled and flashy. We love this bag, made from recycled candy wrappers that is not only cute, but sturdy and water resistant. “The Tote”. Sale $98 (Orig. $168)

Baby Scoop: Micro Sensations Handmade Heating Bags
Posted by Sammiekat on October 20, 2008 in Babies & Kids
Micro Sensations is a company based in Canada that creates handmade heating bags for a variety of uses, but their “warm baby” bags are not only must-have baby items, but are also too cute to resist! The adorable heating pads come in heart, star, moon, frog, and square shapes. Once you heat the bag in the microwave, you can put it in the crib with your little one to provide them with warmth and comfort while they sleep. Best of all, it is quick and easy to get started.
And when the older siblings see it and want one too, don’t fret! They also make “hot pets,” heating bags in the shapes of fun animals like lizards, sting rays, and butterflies that are perfect to keep kids warm and snuggly all night long. These are perfect for the cold nights that we have just started to have! The warm baby bags that are normally $29.99 are on sale for $24.99, and hot pets, normally $39.99, are on sale for $29.99!

Free Drink: Complimentary Starbucks Coffee at Barnes and Noble Stores
Posted by missmelon on October 17, 2008 in Daily Deals
Wow, either Starbucks must be really losing market share or Barnes & Noble is trying to drive people into their stores (or perhaps both). Whatever the reason, the benefit to you is AWESOME! Get a FREE Starbucks coffee valued up to $3.20 at all Barnes and Noble bookstores (except for Barnes & Noble college bookstores). While this isn’t as convenient as heading down to your nearest 10 local Starbucks (over-saturated much?), you can probably very easily find a Barnes & Noble near you. So in reading the fine print, I noticed that you don’t have to get a cappuccino. The offer is good for lattes, house coffee and tea as well. It’s valid until 10/31/08 so that’s 15 days of free Starbucks coffee for you to take advantage of (that’s a savings of $48).
While you’re in-store, drinking your free coffee, wander around because along with the free Starbucks printable coupon is also a 15% off one item Barnes & Noble coupon.

Baby Scoop: Fun, Affordable Hippie Clippies Baby Hair Clips
Posted by Sammiekat on October 16, 2008 in Babies & Kids
Is there anything that I love more than cute products made in the USA? Yes! All of the above and products that are hand-made by a mother of two who knows what little girls need!
Hippie Clippies carries adorable and affordable hair accessories for little girls. They have flower headbands, booties, pacifier clips, and more. My favorite are the non-slip hair clips, which are perfect for even the finest baby hair. They come in adorable designs, from girly to punky, and she even has a Halloween line right now! Another, perhaps unconventional purpose is that they are great for making it obvious to people that your baby is a girl, even if she is not wearing a pink tutu (moms, you know what I mean!). For older girls, they are wonderful because the no-slip design keeps her hair in place through even the most awesome playing. Use coupon code WORDOFMOUTH to get 50% off!
Robin’s Favorite Picks:
Bubble Gum Clippie – $.75
Embellished Checkered Stars - $1.50
Embellished Punk Skulls in Hot Pink – $1.25
Pacifier Clip – $1.50
