This week’s round up of Michaels Arts and Crafts Store coupons have been released, and within each coupon there is a different starting and ending date for when each of them will be valid; so make sure to read these guys before you print them off and rush off to the store.

The first coupon, arguably the better of the three, is an offer of receiving 20% off your entire purchase – including sale items. This coupon will be valid on Friday, January 9th only and will exclude certain products and collections, such as:

• as seen on T.V. products
• Silhouette and Circuit brands
• custom special order products
• services and package pricing
• Rainbow Loom products
• 3Doodler 3D printing pen and accessories
• sewing machines
• starlight ornaments
• books, magazines, DVDs/CDs
• gift cards
• clearance or buy and get items

The second coupon gives you the chance to take 50% off any one regular priced item at Michaels. This 50% off coupon will be valid starting tomorrow and will expire on Thursday, January 15th. The same restrictions as to what you can apply this discount towards are the same as the ones listed above for the 20% off coupon.

The last coupon from Michaels this week will give you 55% off on Modern Day Design Custom Framing, plus receive an extra 20% off on the sale priced items. This coupon excludes Custom Frames Express options and you must purchase a moulding from the outlined collection.

Each of these coupons must be printed off and surrendered upon paying for your items.

Walmart Canada has added some hot new Transformers toys to both their rollback and clearance section, but stock on these items is selling out fast. Having checked through the list of toys included as of this posting though, there were still some really good deals to be bought.

Other Transformer toys included in this sale that you can order online include:

Dairy Queen Canada will be having their annual customer appreciation day in the next coming weeks, and depending on your local store, it will fall on either Wednesday, January 21st or on Saturday, January 24th. Though they are yet to update the Canadian site with the participating locations, if you call your nearest Dairy Queen location they will have probably been given the dates for their store to confirm when and if they will be part of the promotion.

You can use your 50% off customer appreciation discount on almost anything in-store, including both hot and cold treats, though I know I personally would go for their current running promotional Blizzard of the Month: The Birthday Cake Oreo Blizzard.

Technology is getting so ‘smart’ nowadays, especially within the world of kitchen appliances, that soon you may be able to remove the cook entirely from the kitchen (at least I hope not, for my brother’s, the chef, sake). If you take a look at the recent generation of Instant Pot’s, the Instant Pot Smart Bluetooth-Enabled Multifunctional Pressure Cooker you’ll understand why one would begin to see where technology is heading in terms of cooking without needing to actually be present.

This Instant Pot Smart multifunctional cooker not only has 7 built in different cooking modes (pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, saute, steamer, and yogurt maker) but also includes 14 different micro-processor controlled programs:

• meat/stew
• soup
• saute
• poultry
• bean/chili
• steam
• multigrain
• porridge
• rice and slow cook
• keep-warm
• yogurt
• pasteurize
• fermented rice

What sets this Instant Pot Smart model apart from its predecessors, which have already been met with rave reviews, is that it can be programmed with specific scripts for each cook’s individual recipes – all of which can be controlled through your iPhone/iPad (Android will be available in March 2015). Simply download the app, and you can either download previously loaded scripts or create your own script which can include up to 15 steps that will determine the time, temperature and pressure you wish to cook for at each stage.

While this Instant Pot pressure cooker is a tad more pricey than the previous models, the convenience and control supplied through the smart technology is something that gives it that extra edge and, in my opinion, justifies the extra money. Plus, when you use the promo code, hipipot, at the check out you will receive $60 off your Instant Pot Smart, making it cost just $229.95 USD (in Canadian, that would be about $271.83). This promo code will only be available for the next two weeks.

Instant Pot offers free-shipping for all orders placed within Canada and the U.S.

I received a nice surprise the other morning when I was browsing through my e-mails to discover that Starbucks Canada will be offering a freebie for the winter rewards program, if you’re already a registered card member already that is. The rewards program, as the e-mail describes, will give you a free $4 eGift card when you buy 3 or more espresso drinks with your registered card between January 6th-January 12th.

$4 from Starbucks is enough to buy a couple of coffees, or one of those handcrafted espressos you would have purchased earlier to qualify for the card (as there is no restriction on what size the beverage has to be).

Your eGift card will be sent to you via e-mail by January 26th in which more directions pertaining to how the card can be used will be attached.

This offer may be an exclusive one that may only be available to certain card holders, but if you are a registered member of the Starbucks Reward program I’d suggest checking your e-mail just to be safe!

Sears Canada has been keeping their Boxing Week sale prices up for quite some time, but like everything else in life, all good things must come to an end, including Boxing Week sales. Today is your last chance to snatch up any of the deals you may have missed in the hectic swirl of post-holiday buzz, with select products being up to 45% off.

Sears is selling this Samsung Front Loading Super Capacity washer, measuring 4.8 cu. ft. it is one of the tallest front-loading washers on the market – making for a tumble cycle that is more effective overall. Plus, with the VRT technology your washer will be running so quietly you will barely notice that it is running (in addition to the fact that this unique technology also balances the drum to make for shorter wash times). The washer has currently been reduced to 40% off, and is now just $849.99 which means you’ll save a total of $550.

And for today only, you can pick up the Kenmore/MD 22 cu. ft. bottom freezer refrigerator for $600 off the original price, now just $999.99.

Sears isn’t just selling off their major appliances at Boxing Day prices, but they are also including some bedroom sets and larger furniture pieces as well at the 45% off discount. I was able to find this highly positive reviewed Simmons Beautyrest ”Boundless” Tight Top Mattress for $880 off the previous price of $1,599.99, as it is now only $719.99 for a double size mattress.

Sears Canada will continuing their extended Boxing Week sale until the end of the day, or if you’re shopping online then until 11:59pm EST.

Chapters Indigo Canada is carrying over their giving spirit into the New Year with some amazing deals and discounts on both children’s toys and seasonal Christmas decor. In both sections, products are starting at 50% off their original price, and, in some specific instances, being discounted up to 78% off.

One of the better finds within this sale at Chapters, was on the KidKraft Deluxe Fire Rescue Set which is now just $90 (an almost 50% discount from the previous listing of $179.95). What’s even better about the KidKraft Fire Rescue set, apart from the extensive details included in the hand crafted wooden set, is that it is probably the lowest price available on the market right now. After checking Costco.ca, Amazon.ca, and a site called CoolToysforTots.ca, I was able to determine that Chapters Indigo was offering the lowest price by at least $20.

And while most of us never want to see another jingle bell or mistletoe for at the very least another six months, nor even hear the mention of a string of garland, this sale on seasonal decor at Chapters may force you to break your pact to keep away from Christmas decorations. For instance, this White Porcelain Owl ornament is now just $2, which is a whopping 78% off the regular price of $9.50.

Indigo seemed to have a large selection of winter wonderland woodland creatures for their Christmas decor this year, as you can also pick up this felt brown bear ornament for 73% off the original price, now just $2.50.

Not all of these items are available for online purchase, so you may have to track them down at your nearest retail location (which just means you won’t have to pay for shipping and handling!)

East Side Mario’s Canada is serving up some tasty, hot deals this January in their coupon offers that will aid you in getting through this very cold, and very long, month. The first one they are giving away will ensure that you don’t have to even leave the comfort of your cozy home, as it is an exclusive coupon for online orders.

This online coupon from East Side Mario’s will give you $10 off on all online orders that exceed $35 after you enter the promo code, MARIO10, at the checkout. You can redeem this coupon until March 1st, 2015 and cannot be combine with any other ongoing promotion or coupon.

The second coupon that’s being offered this month doesn’t have quite as long a running time as the first one, and it can only be used in-store. However, if used correctly, you could get lunch for you and a friend for a little as $12.98. When you head into East Side Mario’s to redeem this coupon, you will have to go between 11am-3pm on a weekday before February 27th, 2015 and order two qualifying entrees from the lunch menu, after which you will receive $5 off. Be sure to present your coupon prior to placing your order, otherwise it could be considered void!

And with this last coupon, you can plan an inexpensive date night for you and your significant other as it qualifies for 50% off on your second pizza when you buy 2 beverages. This is a great coupon for couples who find though their romantic stars may be aligned, but their tastebuds are entirely polar opposites (opposites attract, isn’t that the saying?) East Side Mario’s will be offering this couples coupon until March 1st, 2015, but it will only be available for dine-in only.

Currently, everything is active related at Old Navy is on sale with the maximum discounts going all the way up to 50% off, but if you add on the current promo code offer (exclusive to online shoppers) you will receive an extra 15% off on your order.

To qualify for this promo code, you will have to enter the code, ONSHOP, at the checkout and you will not be able to apply it to Hot Deals or Everyday Steals.

You can combine this promo code offer of 15% off with current sale items, like the current activewear sale. However, since the promo code is only valid until tonight at 11:59pm EST you will have to act fast if you want to take full advantage of these sales.

These Old Navy women’s Active Compression Capris (19″) are just $12.33 when you add on the ONSHOP code, as they were previously reduced to $14.50 from $29.94.

Walmart Canada clearance sale is including these great Mainstays Tables for just $9.88 and $13.88, depending on which wash you decide to get your table in (as they are available in both espresso and white).

The first table, the espresso washed colour, is currently being sold for $9.88, marked down from $13.88. This would make for an excellent accent piece in your living room, or function well as a bedside table.

The white variety of the Mainstays Tablets from Walmart Canada is being sold for a little bit more, but just barely, at $13.88 (regularly $17.47). This white colour would obviously not be practical for a kids room, but perhaps would work well in your bathroom to store all those extra accessories and personal care items that don’t fit behind your mirror.

Walmart Canada offers free-shipping on these items, since there is no minimum fee for your order to qualify for free-shipping.

The Body Shop Canada has reduced almost all of their gift stock to be 50% off the original retail value. While some of the options may be pretty holiday intensive (*cough the Candy Cane Kisses package) there is a solid selection of skin care products that could be used (or even gifted!) year round.

I personally love the smell of coconut, as it brings back memories of sunscreen and by extension summer, and who wouldn’t want to be dreaming of a palm tree as they brave the windchill and the negative 22 degrees celsius conditions? This Coconut Festive Picks package at the Body Shop Canada is just the antidote you’ll need to kick your winter chills away (or at least lull you into a false sense of security), and it’s only being sold for $12.50 (regularly $25).

This Moringa Ultimate Luxuries collection is indulgence at its finest, the whole set containing 3 moisturizers, a fragrance eau de toilette and oil. This full set is valued at $80, and would normally cost $55, but right now you can pick it up for just $27.50.

A sweet little retreat, this Wild Argan Oil Beauty Bag contains all the spoils you’ll need to cleanse your dry and cracked winter skin, all of which is made from organic Community Fair-Trade argan oil from Morocco. The Body Shop normally sells this beauty bag for $15, but right now you can pick it up, or order it online, for just $7.50.

The 50% off on select gift is available in-store or online at the Body Shop, but keep in mind that orders before $50 will not qualify for the free-shipping.

Air Canada is once again having one of those awesome worldwide seat sales, that are really only conditionally awesome should you not be too picky about your dates and places that you are travelling to. Otherwise, you can really find some hot offers in this seat sale! All you have to know is the standard booking rules, that the only dates that the best prices will be available on are: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. You also have to book before January 12th, at 11:59pm EST.

If you’re looking for some international European travel options, then you should check out the flights to Dublin. It’s a pretty central location in Europe, so you’ll be able to find flights and train options to other countries for relatively cheap – should you want to leave the green isle (which I doubt you will once you land). I was able to find a roundtrip ticket departing from Toronto for just $756.80, and it was during one Dublin’s most popular times of travel: St. Patrick’s Day.

Alternatively, if you’re looking for a less ambitious travel destination, but are still wanting to escape this winter for a getaway, then you should also check out the U.S. destinations available in this deal (with some one-way flights being as low as $197, depending upon where you’re departing from). I was able to get a roundtrip ticket from Montreal in the slump of winter (February 24th-March 3rd) to Orlando for just $399.71.

Amazon.ca has some really good deals this morning – should you be able to pick them up before they all sell out! – on both the Aukey Amzdeal Multi Port USB Charger Charging Station USB Wall Charger and the Aukey External Battery Pack Portable Power Bank Charger 10000mAh. Both of these deals are already over 50% off their original price, but when you add on the extra savings promo code specific to each product, then you can pay as little as $23.99 for one of these hot products.

The Aukey External Battery Pack Portable Power Bank Charger is typically sold for $79.99, but has been reduced on Amazon.ca to just $29.99. Plus, when you enter in the promo code, M22FW8B3, it will be further reduced to just $24.99; saving you a total of $55.

The second Aukey product included in today’s deals at Amazon.ca is the Amzdeal Multi Port USB Charger Charging Station USB Wall Charger, which is also being sold for just $29.99, though before it was being sold for $59.99 (50% off the regular price). When you enter the promo code, XRNOU92E, you will be able to take an extra $6 off, meaning you’ll only pay $23.99.

As you can see from both of my carts, though Amazon.ca offers free-shipping on orders that exceed $25, since these orders were above $25 before the promo code was applied you will still qualify for free-shipping!
