Children's Place 15% off Code

I love the colorful clothing designs for kids at the The Children's Place. I try to buy clothes to fit my kids for the following summer. In this way, I have been able to snag some new clothes for cheaper-than-thrift-store-prices!


Right now there is a sale going on at The Children's Place on many of their summer items. Sizes and quantities are limited. Many items are just $3.99 or less.


Use one of these codes to take an additional 15% off FA79 (can only be used on one order) or the one I found today PARENTING79 - good through 9/7/09. Shipping (no matter the size of the order) is always $5.00


If you are a member of My Points, you can also receive 2 points per dollar spent at this store. If your credit card has a similar rewards program, this is almost a steal.


Please share how you save money shopping for kids clothes (or yours).

Retail Store Closings

Buyer Beware!

If you're planning on buying gift cards for Christmas this year, read this list to make sure that store isn't going to go out of business.


I wanted to give everyone a heads up that if you tend to give gift cards around the holidays, you need to be careful that the cards will not be honored after the holidays. Stores that are planning to close after Christmas are still selling the cards through the holidays even though the cards will be worthless January 1. There is no law preventing them from doing this. On the contrary, it is referred to as 'Bankruptcy Planning).

Below is a partial list of stores that you need to be cautious about.
