Thanks for the reminder, AbsolutePunk

Don’t forget that there’s only a little over 24 hours left to get $3 toward any MP3 download from Amazon.

I picked up the new Weezer, Raditude! I’m jammin to it as we speak. Helluva $2 deal, ya’ll.

When I used the promo code, I got a NEW 1-use promo code in my email towards a online video purchase. It says:

As someone who recently purchased $5 or more in the Amazon.com MP3 store, you have automatically qualified for $3 of credit on select TV content on Amazon Video On Demand. To use your credit please write down or copy the promotional code above and visit  http://www.amazon.com/tvpromo

Please Note: This offer is only valid on select TV shows. To browse eligible content go to http://www.amazon.com/tvpromo

I don’t know if I’ve posted in the past about Swagbucks, but I’m taking the opportunity to do so now. I signed up a while back at the suggestion of MoneySavingMom, because she has yet to steer me wrong. This one couldn’t be easier.

You earn ‘swagbucks’ a number of  ways, but the easiest way is through using swagbucks for searches. Now, the swagbucks search IS a google search, so it’s no skin off my back to go through their site. Random searches get swagbucks, its as easy as that.

You can trade in your swagbucks towards gift cards or a ton of other things.

The best way to use it is to install the toolbar, but only because then you’ll default to using their search instead of the one in your browser. Again, no sweat, and it shows you all of the time how many swagbucks you have. Occassionally, they’ll have Facebook and Twitter contests as well, so it’s worthwhile to check in on them. Swagbucks is not new, in fact I was surprised to find out how many people I know are using it.

So, that’s the speech. Sign up through this link and you’ll get some bucks to start out with, and I’ll get a pat on the bat for giving you the kool aid.

Free Duracell batteries (after rebate)

I hope everyone had a lovely holiday and has stuffed themselves to the point that they’re contemplating not eating until Christmas Eve. And that you’ve gotten your regular allotment of fights in with your parents/in-laws.  That is how the holidays should go, my friend.

From now through December 26, 2009, you can get free batteries at Staples! Just sign up for their Rewards card and then buy a 20-pack of Duracell batteries at $12.99 and you’ll get $12.99 back in Staples Rewards.

This deal can be done twice per week per customer. So by December 26, you should be good and stocked with batteries!
