Enter to win an iPad!! Brad’s Deals Savings Tournament — SEMI-FINALS!!

Wow — semi-finals!!  It is a new week in the Brad’s Deals tournament!     Head over and vote here and you get entered to win an iPad!

I cannot tell you enough how honored I am to be participating with all of these excellent bloggers and each round has definitely gotten more difficult — thank you to everyone that has been voting for me!

This week my savings was not as high but I really wanted to concentrate on things that I NEED — like clothes for the kiddos!

This week I had two things to tackle: A) The kids need more clothes, they are growing so fast that I swear I have to get new clothes every couple months. B) Business! I needed more business cards and goodies to hand out to promote Wheel n Deal Mama.

For the kids I stopped by Totsy as they have some great items marked way down AND, if you spend $65, you can get $15 off using the promo code VIPMOM. I got 6 items, totaling $66.60, I applied the promo code VIPMOM dropping my total to just $51.60. Shipping was $7.95. Retail for all of the items was $202 and I paid $51.60 plus shipping.

Next I shopped at Kohls.com to pick up a few more items using the 20% off and free shipping. I snagged 4 items for the kids and a Scene it? Game as a gift for just $34.07 shipped. Retail was $113.99.

Vistaprint is offering several items for FREE right now you just have to pay shipping and this is perfect for me to get some items that I needed for the blog. I snagged 250 business cards, a pen, sticky notes and a car magnet for FREE!! Shipping was $6.25.

Lastly I am about to go on a road trip in about a week and I figured an audio book would be a great way to pass the time! I snagged a FREE Audible one-month membership and got one free book! I signed up for the membership with NO out of pocket cost — the one month trial being worth $14.99 and the book $27.99!

In all, including shipping I spent: $85.67 on product and $14.20 on shipping. Retail cost was $384.93.

Your votes are greatly appreciated! 🙂
