Deal Alert: Sur La Table Friends And Family Sale

Sur-La-Table-Friends-And-Family-2012

I know I know - I didn't do a Fab Friday this week.   I haven't been in much of a shoppy mood.  However, I go a lovely little email that I couldn't wait to share with y'all - namely, the Sur La Table Friends and Family sale. From now until Nov. 12th, we're talking 20% off of most items so you know this gal is going to get her shop on this weekend.  Quite the very "happy birthday" to moi incentive no?  Now - to decide what to scoop up - that's going to be the tough part. So - what … [Read more...]



Making The Most of Cyber Monday

OnlineShopping-Small

I hope everyone had a fabulous holiday and didn't go TOO crazy on Black Friday.  Having lost my sense of fun for Black Friday some years ago (and, by news reports, it seems to have only gotten crazier - who the heck pepper sprays people for an XBox?!?!) , I decided to play it safe and did not brave the chaos of Cherry Hill or King of Prussia.  I did, however, participate in Small Business Saturday with a nice excursion to the Italian Market for fab. coffee, spices, panettone for holiday … [Read more...]



Shopping In Stilettos: Fab Monday – The Big 4-0 Edition

Yes, you guessed right, this gal hit the big 4-0 late last week and, I swear, with age comes memory loss. It's been chaos this weekend in between a retro Dancin' on Air taping for a special that will be airing this Thanksgiving on PHL17 to getting the SousPug ready for his stitch removal (hopefully this is the final stretch with his major health issues and he can just rest for a change). I definitely foresee some Cruzan in my immediate future after this roller coaster of a year. Over the … [Read more...]



Guilty of Idiocy: MoreRebates.com

Dollar Sign

As you all know, when things are good - I tell you and when things, quite frankly, stink - I'll tell you. Such is the case with MoreRebates.com. When our relationship started, it was good. We went through our honeymoon phase with me testing their program and actually loving the fact that they give rebates for sites that might not be on the typical cash back path. Well, as you know I maintain more than one blog and I use one specific hosting program for them that I ADORE called Hostgator. When … [Read more...]

Deal Alert: Dean & Deluca Double Cash Back – TODAY ONLY!

I adore Dean & Deluca - their spices are some of the best I've ever used.  Heck, if Barefoot Contessa uses them, why shouldn't we.   However the closest D&D to me is in NYC so I have to be content with shopping online.  When I moved to Philly, the first thing I did was order some new spices and their shipping was lightening fast.  Normally I shop through Ebates and I adore getting 5% cash back on all of my D&D needs.  However, Ebates is giving DOUBLE cash back on all Dean … [Read more...]



Colin Cowie’s New Summer Line for HSN…

Spice Collection

Colin Cowie debuted his Spring/Summer line for HSN today and, I have to confess, I spent quite a bit of time with my jaw to the floor going over the products. Some of the products, I had heard about in advance but my poor wallet is screaming at me.   Thankfully I was able to get cash back from Mr. Rebates but still... eeeks!  I did, however, control myself with a couple purchases I'm still thinking about. When it comes to entertaining, I swear by his products.  I've found that they are … [Read more...]
