Amazon.com is having a huge Melissa & Doug sale. Most toys are at least 25% off, with some as much as 70% off!  Scroll down on the left-hand side to search by % off.

Purchase $25 or more to get free Super Saver Shipping. Amazon tends to sell out or changes prices quickly, so don’t wait on this deal.

I have four birthdays coming up so this is great timing.   Here are a few of my favorites:

Band in a Box $24.99 $18.10 I bought this 3 or 4 years ago and my kids still love it!

Wooden Family Doll Set $19.99 $14.50 Sassyfrass is getting this for her birthday.

Wooden Yo-Yo Kit $17.19 $5.75 Little Prince is getting this for his birthday.

Magnetic Calendar $19.99 14.98 I’m considering this for our morning calendar work.

Fish Bowl Puzzle $14.99 $8.40 Sweetpea might be getting this for her birthday.

What cute deals did you find?

When I saw the Yankee Candle email in my inbox this morning, I realized I haven’t shared one of my favorite deals. I am a candle addict, and Yankee Candles are some of the best. However, I only buy them when I can combine a coupon & a sale. (I recently got  32 votives & 3 car jars for $32.49 shipped!)

Use coupon code XF004E1 to save $10 off a $25 purchase, expires August 6th ($5 flat rate shipping).

Combine this with their sale for some great gifts.

The Discovery Channel Store is having a big sale on toys, books, DVDs and clothing.

Go through Ebates and get 5% back on your purchase (plus $5 for signing up if you are new).

It’s that time of year again….time for the deals to start rolling out.

Keep an eye out for the *jingle* and get a head start on your Christmas shopping without breaking the bank!

I really enjoyed posting the inexpensive Christmas gift deals that I came across. And judging from the feedback I received, many of you found them useful too.

I like to buy birthday and Christmas gifts all year long whenever I find a great sale. I am thinking about continuing my Jingle series all year long to help us all gear up for a year of debt-free giving.

Is anyone interested in me continuing the Jingle All the Way to the Bank posts? Leave me a comment and let me know!!
