Friends, deal hounds, bargain hunters, lend me your ears; if ye don't know about the best coupon site on the web, bar none, then this will indeed be a most glorious day for thee (sorry, I'm really not Shakespeare). But in all seriousness, there is one site I have bookmarked that I visit before I buy anything online, ever. And you should, too.

Thumb Up

As some of you are aware, I experienced the wait of all waits at Papa Murphy’s recently. Over one hour for a phone order, which left me fuming (partly at my own politeness for not having said something sooner). Anyway, I informed Papa Murphy’s of my story and got a nice result.

free ball

A quick deal for you everyone. I'm not sure how bad or good your bowling is, but mine is rotten. I don't blame the balls, I blame myself for not doing it often enough. Oh, and I'm a Brit. But anyway, this deal is for those of you who don't care about getting a stellar ball but would like a nice beginner's ball all of your own for free.

40% off at The W Store - ends Aug 31

W Store
Quick deal for you. For the next two weeks the W Store is accepting a coupon that takes 40% off your entire purchase. Now, I'm not one to usually shop there, it's a bit overpriced, but the coupon means there are some very good deals to take advantage of. My personal favorite is shown below. An Android Sonic Radar watch , rrp $115 but with the coupon it's around $70. Not a bad price for such a fine watch. If you're willing to spend a little more cash, you can buy a very nice mattress.

Coupon of the month! $30 off a $30 purchase at ShopNBC.

shopNBC
It's not often a deal of this magnitude comes along, so grab it while you can folks. Right now (for a limited time, but I don't know how long...sorry) ShopNBC accepts a coupon that takes $30 off a minmium purchase of $30. Basically, it's $30 for free. Gratis. Nada. The only stipulation I can find is that the $30 has to be spent on one item, not a bunch of items that add up to $30. No problem for me though, there's plenty on ShopNBC that I can pick up for just a little more than that price, making the item almost free.

Did Office Max hire an accountant with an I.Q. of 62?

Posted 50 weeks ago by Paul Michael

Filed Under: Consumer Affairs

Dunce

I think I may be losing my grip on reality.

Recently I received four coupons in the mail from my local Office Max. Two coupons were for $10 off a purchase of $10. I'm not the best number-cruncher but I figured that meant I got two $10 items for free. I was right. I strolled into Office Max, picked out two $10 items (pack of batteries, paper supplies) and after tax the grand total came to around $1.40 for $20 worth of product.

open gift

I love these discounts. It makes you feel special knowing you're getting, say, 30% off when every other sucker is paying full price. But being a Wisebread blogger I have to share the wealth with my readers. After all, I can't keep a clean conscience knowing I'm letting you guys pay full price for something, ever. So, without further ado, here's a bunch of great discount codes (some just in time for Mother's Day...hey, nothing wrong with getting Mom more for your money), and the applicable dates if known. Shop till you drop my fine frugal friends.

Why is it so expensive to be healthy?

Posted 1 year ago by Andrea Dickson

Filed Under: Food and Drink, Health and Beauty

Why are poor people in America so fat? Would you believe that farm subsidies have something to do with it?

Walmart is where lower income consumers come to shop. Why? Because you get the most bang for your buck. Walmart is also notorious for having the fattest customers. Why? It comes back to value - it turns out that unhealthiest food also gives you the most caloric bang for your buck.

Don't pretend you don't know what I'm talking about
