50% Off Barnes & Noble PLUS 315 Swagbucks

As if the fact that it's Mega Swagbucks Day isn't good enough, Swagbucks is making a great offer even better.

Through the weekend you can grab a $20 Barnes & Noble Gift Certificate for just $10 on Groupon (Chicago).  But, if you go through Swagbucks to buy it you will also get 315 Swagbucks, making this great deal even better.

So how does Swagbucks work?  Simply sign up then use their search engine to do the searches you normally do and you'll earn Swagbucks for doing them.  In addition you can earn Swagbucks for playing games, doing surveys and watching videos (among other things).  My favorite way to earn Swagbucks, however, is by purchasing the daily deals from Living Social and Groupon; deals I would have bought anyway.  Buying these Daily Deals via Swagbucks earns big returns; usually it's 280 Swagbucks but they bumped it up for this current Groupon deal to 315 Swagbucks.

So why earn Swagbucks? Because you can trade those bad boys in for some really great stuff.  I usually opt for the Amazon gift cards (it only takes 450 Swagbucks to earn a $5 Amazon gift card), but there are many other choices including other gift cards and items ranging from MP3 downloads to electronics.

Check Your Email for CVS Coupons

I just got a $5 off $30 coupon in my email this afternoon.  I swear they purposely send me those within the hour of when I've just left the store.  I could have really used that coupon earlier when I bought over $50 worth of razors for just $16ish (and only paid $11 out of pocket thanks to that $10 CVS card I picked up for $5 on WeShop.com a week or so ago.

And if you haven't used your BOGO Bic razor coupons yet, now would be a good time to do so, as they are B1G1 50% at CVS through Saturday.

If you enjoy Burt's Bees too, then you'll love this giveaway.  I'm passing along a fully loaded Burt's Bees lip balm gift tin.  This tin contains 4 lip balms and comes in a pretty cool tin that you can use reuse.
