Does The Internet REALLY Know What Day It Is?

I know Mondays’ posts are reserved for my Weekly Spending Recap and Eye Candy.  However, today is Cyber Monday on the Innerwebs.  And I would be a Very Naughty Cheap Chick if I didn’t share with you the amazing sales/giveaways/freebies folks emailed me about all last week.

So with no further babbling, here is just a smattering of the deals that await you on the World Wide Web.

There are deals aplenty at Sleep Number Beds, as sent to me via email from the lovely Natasha:

Do you love Isaac Mizrahi?  Shouldn’t you?  I do, and soon he will be launching his latest lower-priced line on QVC, according to Kisha:

“I think your readers might find this interesting (sure they will!).  This December, get up close and personal with the lifestyle collection from award-winning fashion designer, accomplished author, and television personality, Isaac Mizrahi on QVC.  Add some dazzle to your life, style, and home with clothing, accessories, home decor, and even delicious food from Isaac.

I also got an email from Cathy at Balsam Hill – “We’re holding a giveaway contest to help one lucky family celebrate Christmas. We are giving away a Colorado Mountain Spruce Christmas tree valued at $799.”  And if the winner comes from my website, I guess I win $500.  Does that make it a win-win?  Why yes, I believe it does.  Go here for more details.

Last, but certainly NOT the least at all – EddieBauer.com’s Cyber Monday sale is blowing my frigging mind.  You’ll get 25% off your entire offer, plus free shipping, no minimum purchase.  Holy.  Moly.  Someone PLEASE go there now and start shopping, it’s too good to pass up.

One final thought:  in these countdown-to-Chrismakwanzika day, let’s all take a moment to pass, breathe deeply, and remember that the holidays are supposed to be ENJOYABLE.  So start having fun, dammit.
