My Mother told me that she doesn't shop online because she loves using coupons. I felt obligated to inform her that coupons have been prevalent on the web for quite some time. And the best part is that you'll never get a paper cut "clipping" a coupon online. Taking advantage of an online coupon is one of the easier things to do on your computer. If you can copy the coupon and paste it in to a box, you'll get the discount. Before I could explain this to Mom, I saw that she was smiling innocently, and I realized that I was looking at the one person on Earth who would never shop online. So I surrendered and kissed her on the cheek.

On our site, we regularly post coupon codes for all sorts of great retailers. This week we feature a 50% off Clearance Coupon for Nautica, a 70% off Clearance Coupon from Lane Bryant, Coupons that get you cheap magazine subscriptions, a 15% off Coupon for Kohl's, and many more. But our favorites lately have come from Amazon, where no coupon code is required.

This week alone, we've highlighted very low prices from Amazon on dish Liquid, Dove Face Care products, Cheer Detergent, the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and more. The deals change daily, but we are finding very good ones every day. The Subscribe & Save Service there saves you even more, giving you an additional 5% discount and automatic free shipping with no minimum required. There is no code to copy and paste to use a coupon at Amazon. You simply scroll down on the item page and click the "Clip this Coupon" link to get your extra discount.

So bookmark Crazytowndeals.com and check back often to save on everything from apparel to trash bags. Your wallet and your fingers will thank you!

If I had to do it all over again.....

There isn’t much I would change about my wedding day.  After almost ten years of marriage I’m sure there are certain things I would do differently because things change over a decade.  Styles evolve, new trends emerge and tastes can change.  But for the most part everything was really nice.  But if I truly had it to do all over again, I probably would have taken the money and ran!  My parents graciously paid for my wedding, but offered to let me use that money elsewhere if we just wanted to have a small destination wedding instead.  Knowing what I know now (and being in the wedding industry has probably jaded me) and being more practical I probably would have jumped on the opportunity.  Not that weddings shouldn’t be celebrated and enjoyed, but the amount of money wasted on frivolous things could really be much better spent! 

But as long as little girls dream of their fairytale weddings and the industry continues to grow, flourish and dominate the media, money will be spent on lavish events.  Hopefully, the next generation of brides will learn to be smart with their spending and won’t go in to debt to pull off a dream wedding.  Maybe the eco-friendly wedding trend will take off and brides will pay more attention to the environmental consequences of their choices. And maybe, just maybe, brides will begin to cherish the reason behind the big party and work harder on their actual marriage than they
do on planning their wedding.  Wishful thinking?

Don't over-accessorize your wedding look

It’s all about the dress, right?  So why do so many brides want to take attention away from themselves and their beautiful gowns by wearing too much, too big and too gaudy jewelry and accessories?  There’s no doubt about it; there is such a thing as too much bling!  Sure, it’s all about your individual style and personality, but try not to go overboard with your jewels.  A simple, unadorned gown may look fantastic with a fancy beaded belt and matching necklace, but don’t feel the need to wear it all.  A tiara, earrings, necklace, bracelet and belt may be overdoing it.  Choose the pieces that complement your gown, not compete with it.

If you’ve chosen a highly ornate gown with a lot of beading, embroidery or lace, you may want to skip a lot of accessories all together.  Maybe a nice chandelier earring if your hair is pulled back.  But a bare neck may be in order so as not to overshadow the details of the gown.  You want to shine on your wedding day, but you don’t want to blind your guests!  Remember the adage; sometimes less is more.

What to do when the party (wedding) is over!

Congratulations!  You’re married!  Hopefully it was as magical as you always dreamed and your months of planning came off without a hitch.  While you bask in the glow of married life and slowly return to normalcy, there are a few things you should ensure happen to “close out” your wedding.

First, make sure all your vendors have been paid.  You probably took care of all the deposits and final payments before the wedding, but if you owe any outstanding balances, be sure they are paid promptly. Next, return any items that you may have borrowed.  Maybe your best friend loaned you her veil for the ceremony or your aunt let you wear her heirloom pearls.  Make sure you give them back promptly so they don’t have to track you down. 

Don’t forget to send thank you notes promptly.  Be sure to keep a list of who gave what as you open the gifts so you can easily jot off notes to all those  who attended the wedding.  Also, get your gown cleaned as soon as possible.  Stains that are not set in are much easier to remove, so the sooner you take it to your drycleaner, the better!

Finally, if you are changing your name, make sure to contact all the necessary agencies to do so.  You can easily find a list online.  Start with DMV, but don’t forget all your other accounts.  You’ve been practicing your married signature for months…now’s the time to make it official!

In case of emergency...

Weddings have lots of components.  There are florists, caterers, musicians, cake bakers, venue coordinators, and so on.  With so many parts coming together to make one function happen, there’s bound to be a glitch or two. Not to mention family and wedding party members who don’t
always follow your plans or show up on time.  You cannot control everything and the sooner you accept that all your hard work may not come together flawlessly, the better off you will be.  Always be prepared with back-up plans or be ready to adapt when things don’t go your way.  Limo drivers get stuck in traffic, bridesmaids go in to early labor, flower girls refuse to walk down the aisle, and cakes get delivered to the wrong location.  S*** happens!

Your best preparation can often be just being prepared for things to go wrong.  If they don’t, great!  But having the right attitude and realizing it is not the end of the world if the florist gives you white roses instead of red could save your sanity.  Remember; it could always be worse.  Just think of all
the poor brides who had weddings literally washed away during Hurricane Sandy last week. 

Another smart option: find your calmest, smartest and most organized friend and put them in charge of any last minute calamities.  Having a trusted source to make problems go away and keep them from you on your wedding day can be the best wedding gift of all.

Kindle 3.0 (Kindle Fire HD) ((New Kindles just in time for Christmas!))

 

Kindle 3.0

Actually, it's official name is Kindle Fire HD. But it's hard not to think that this shiny new device introduced by Amazon recently is more of an upgrade from the Kindle Fire than a unique, original piece of technology, isn't it? After all, it looks alot like the last Kindle Fire, plays movies, books, and completes the task of being an ereader (that was it's original "purpose", remember?) like the last Kindle Fire, and gives you access to tons of Amazon's content you can play on it - just like the last Fire. But the more we look at it, the more we think the new Kindle Fire HD is a true original, and is about to shake up the world of tablets in a big way.

We figure when Jeff Bezos writes a letter, we should read it. And we did. You can read it yourself at Amazon, of course. In it, he introduces us to the new Kindle Fire HD in all of it's glory, and the man who built the world's best place to shop online gives us all of the reasons we should Pre-order one now. What we found most interesting though is that he also says the new device "isn't just the best tablet for the price, it's the best tablet." When the original Fire was released, the company was clear to point out that it was not meant to compete with the iPad. Clearly, the man in charge thinks this one can, and if the sale of the original Fire is any indication, it will.

We will leave the side by side comparisons to those more technologically savvy, but we can't help but think that the new Kindle Fire HD, which tops out at a relatively low $599 for the 64GB version (compared to $829 for the most expensive iPad with similar specs) is about to give Apple's much heralded device a serious run for it's money. Amazon's now well established history as not only a retailer, but as an innovator in the world of ereaders, combined with the "world's best customer service", can only help their cause.

The new Fire comes in 3 different editions. The 8.9", 4G Fire HD is available in 32GB ($499) and64 GB ($599) renditions. Also 8.9", the Wi-Fi Fire HD comes in 16GB ($299) and 32GB ($369) versions, as does the 7" Fire HD ($199 for 16GB and $249 for 32GB). Leaving no stone unturned, Amazon has also released it's new Kindle Paperwhite Readers, starting at just $119. The specs of that new device are impressive to be sure, and include a new lighting display that looks very interesting. But we just couldn't take our eye off the new Fire HD, to be honest. We are betting that you, and anyone else who likes the idea of holding a small media powerhouse in your hands, can't either.

Choosing the right music can set the tone for your wedding

When I heard Justin Timberlake serenaded his bride Jessica Biel at their recent Italian wedding, I could almost picture the crowd weeping.  That is a moment his bride will always remember.  Now we can’t all be pop superstars, but you can choose music and performers that will set the perfect
tone to fit your personality.  For some that’s doing a classic wedding march down the aisle, a waltz for your first dance and sof jazz throughout the reception.  For others it’s an upbeat quirky tune to enter, a choreographed Lady Gaga routine for the first dance, and the “wobble” for all of your guests to get down to.

Whether you enjoy a good chicken dance, electric slide or the twist, choosing the music to set the mood for your event is key.  Be it a live band, DJ or pre-planned IPod tunes, you can really control the tone of the party with the right music.  So choose what makes you happy, but also keep your guests in mind.  If 50% of the attendees are older relatives, you may want to throw in some classic tunes in addition to the top 40 hits for your friends.  Maybe start out more mellow and then crank it up as the night progresses and the older crowd departs.  Great Aunt Ethel may not appreciate a good Jay-Z beat as much as you think!
