February 14th is rapidly approaching. Still don’t have that perfect gift for him? Still don’t have a clue as to what you’ll buy or what he would appreciate? Once again, Dealio is here to help! We have asked some of the top men’s retailer’s for hot gift ideas for him this Valentine’s Day. Now here we are, passing the savings and information on to you. You’re welcome! 
Let’s talk undies. Does he think he’s “too sexy”? Give him a fun and unique gift with these boxers from Webundies.com. These boxer shorts are made of 100% cotton and come in sizes small through extra-large. As an added bonus, the company always offers free shipping to men and women in the military. Send someone you love a fun gift!
Or… perhaps the man in your life is a new daddy? Does he like carrying around that pink floral diaper bag when he takes the baby girl out for a day trip? I thought not! Here is a great gift for that guy… the Diaper Dude Bag! Any dad or dad-to-be would appreciate this functional, manly gift. And Diaper Dude is offering a discount on their RED bag for Valentine’s Day. How appropriate.

Still need ideas? Dealio found this gift that is surely to be a one-of-a-kind! The Joy Ergonomic Mouse is practical and it’s exclusive! I know your guy will enjoy having something no one else does. This computer mouse offers 5 control buttons (as opposed to the standard 3) and was actually named “a sexy tool for your hand” by one of their online reviewers. This is a fantastic gift for someone who works on his computer all day due to it’s ergonomic design. The company that makes the Joy Ergonomic Mouse actually sold out of them over Christmas, but we found it on sale at Amazon.com just in time for February 14th.

Amazon Coupon Alert: 20% off Eco-Friendly gDiapers
Posted by Colleen on January 26, 2009 in Daily Deals, Eco-Friendly
Eco-minded parents, listen up! As you know over the last 40 years there have only been two choices when it comes to diapers: cloth or disposable. Now though, you have a third option in gDiapers; the best of cloth diapers and disposable in one eco-friendly diaper. gDiapers put waste where it belongs, down the toilet, not the landfill.
gDiapers are a unique and safe choice for parents concerned about the health of their children and the health of our planet. They have no elemental chlorine, no perfumes, and no odor which means no guilt. In fact, gDiaper flushables are so gentle on the Earth you can even garden compost the wet ones. (i.e. please don’t compost the poopy diapers.) Just think of the round of applause you’ll be getting from our planet.
Not really comfortable flushing a diaper down your toilet? Never fear! Due to the natural fiber material in gDiapers you can also feel confident simply tossing them in the garbage. Everything that goes into making up the gDiaper is 100% biodegradable and will be reabsorbed by our planet. Again, no guilt!
Here’s how it works, I recommend purchasing this starter kit from gDiapers. The gDiapers Starter Kit is a great way to sample gDiapers because it contains two pairs of ‘little g’ pants, 10 flushable diaper refills, and a H.U.G (Handy User’s Guide). The liners are made of breathable polyurethane coated nylon, not pvc like many diaper covers. They are easy to change and rinse out. They are also breathable which helps prevent diaper rash. Everything has been designed with little one’s comfort and dryness in mind. And let’s not forget the importance of the flushables which hold up to 100 times their weight in liquid and fit snugly inside the liner.
These diapers are a bit pricier, but lucky for you we found a great Amazon coupon code. Buy any two gDiapers products from Amazon (already discounted) and save an additional 20%.
Amazon Coupon Code: GDIAPIO9
Expires: 1/31/09
Be sure to comment and let us know how gDiapers work for you and your family. And take a peek at this blog for comments from real gDiapers users to learn more!

Drink Freebie: Free Starbucks Coffee For Community Service
Posted by Sammiekat on January 23, 2009 in Daily Deals
Starbucks is again proving that they are about more than just great coffee. In their latest “I’m In” campaign with HandsOn Network, which was inspired by President Obama’s call for national service, Starbucks is asking everyone to pledge at least five hours of community service at a local volunteer opportunity of their choice. Each person who pledges their time to service will be honored with a free tall brewed coffee. To participate, visit a participating Starbucks location and fill out an “I’m In” pledge card with your five hour commitment to volunteer, place the “I’m In” sticker on your shirt and you’ll receive your free cup of coffee. You can log on to pledge5.starbucks.com to record your hours, find local volunteer opportunities through HandsOn Network, and receive updates on the campaign. Hurry, as this offer is valid ends on January 25th. Starbucks has set a goal to raise more than one million hours of service all across the nation. Find more information on the “I’m In” campaign here. Find more information on HandsOn Network here.

Chic for Cheap: Thakoon for Target
Posted by Julia on January 22, 2009 in Fashion
Next time you’re at Target make sure to check out their new designer labels in addition to the newly released Hayden Hartnett line! Thakoon Panichgul, an American designer of Thai descent, has designed a chic new collection for Target’s GO International line. “Colors, prints, details –this collection is extravagant in style. Not price.” But hurry, most items are under $50, and the line is only available until the end of the month. The designer, usually known as Thakoon featured classic silhouettes with bold prints.
I’ve noticed that the Go International designers are creating pieces which nearly replicate pieces from their couture line. Take for instance the Shibori dress above from Thakoon’s Spring 2008 line, retails for $1,350 (yes, that’s a comma…not a period). The dress created for Target is just $39.99, less than 10% of the “original”. This has caused some controversy amongst Thakoon loyalists and fashionistas. After all, why shell out thousands when you can get something comparable for considerably less? Lucky for you – the choice if for you to make. Unlucky for you, the dress below is sold-out online. You can snag one on eBay for around $70 or so. If you’re a fan of the print, you can still snag a Shibori print shirt for $14.99.
