Mamapedia: 50% off The Organized Parent

Today's Mamapedia (new group buying site) sweet deal is $15 for $30 worth of merchandise from The Organized Parent.  This is a national deal that is actually available for 2 more days.  Here is some of the fine print: must be used in full, not good toward tax or shipping, expires in April 2011.  The Organized Parent has a wide variety of products, from dry erase family calendars, to personalized water bottles to a "budgeting bank" for kids. (Thanks to reader Marcie for the heads up on all the great products offered.)

A great thing about Mamapedia is that a % of your purchase is donated to you local school.  Buy today's deal and your family can get more organized and your school will earn $0.75.  I know that doesn't seem like much, but pass this deal along to other families in your school and the donations will start to add up.

$5 Leapfrog Tag Books= Possible Free Books!

 

I think we may have alerted you to this  $5 off Leapfrog Tag books printable a few weeks back.  If you haven't printed it yet, do so now  to use next week (don't forget to hit back button to print second time).  Target will have these on sale buy one get one free starting 11/21 or as low as 2/$9.99.  You may be able to use one coupon per book (depending on your cashier) so you may be able to get TWO free.  But even if you can only use one, you are looking at 2/$4.99.  That is only $2.49 each!

If you want to take a risk, you could buy them this week (to ensure you get the ones you want) and try and get a price adjustment next week.  I am going to buy a Tag tomorrow to make use of the $10 Target coupon and $5 Leapfrog Coupon (exp 11/18) stack.  That would make it only $24.99.  This is the price it will be during Black Friday weekend, but this way you won't have to fight the crowds.

Thanks to Common Sense with Money for the reminder on this great printable.
