If you haven’t heard of the Canadian web retailer brand, Alexa Pope, before today, then you’re in for a real treat in this post. Alexa Pope is a Canadian distributor of high-end and affordable apparel that caters to a vast range of fashionistas tastes, all the way from the city slicker to the laid back San Francisco hippy.What’s even better about this brand is, unlike the U.S. counterparts who will charge you an arm and a leg in customs fees, these girls are Canadian so you won’t have to pay any hidden taxes (yay!) when your package is delivered. Plus, they always guarantee free-shipping within Canada; a rarefied offer, but yes it’s true.

In today’s offer, we are giving you a chance to try out the clothing offered at Alexa Pope- if you haven’t already- by offering you a 20% off promo code that will be valid until January 1st, 2015. You can use this promo code, SC20AP, as many times as you like, and it will (conveniently) be around long enough for you to buy yourself a either a holiday dress or a New Year’s outfit (or both!) at a discounted price.

Of course you don’t have to use your Alexa Pope promo code on their dresses, though I highly recommend you do as they’ve got a wonderful selection to choose from. This Red Alert Embellished dress would suit any holiday party with its fiery red attention grabbing fit, plus it’s only $82. After you apply your SC20AP promo code, the dress will only be $65.60 before taxes, which is a steal for a beautiful dress like this.

The sale section has some good finds as well, though some of the sizes may be a bit picked over, it’s worth peeling through to see if there’s any goodies that both fit you and your budget.

I personally love the smell of the frosted cranberry limited edition products from the Body Shop, and believe that its seasonal scent would transition nicely between winter and spring. When I combined the frosted cranberry body butter, now on sale for $10 (was $20), with the frosted cranberry shower gel and lip balm I was able to get them all at 30% off.

 Originally, these three products would’ve cost me $25, but with my discount the total was only $20.50. Shipping and handling is not free unless you spend $75, without which it will be $7.50.

However you can use this promo code, GIFT4U, to take $10 off your order if you spend over $20, which will essentially cover the shipping and handling on your order and a little bit extra. When I applied it to my previous order, it worked out to only costing $18.45 with the shipping and handling included.

Browns Canada is combining their free-shipping offer on all orders (i.e. no minimums!) with their 70% off sale, which is ongoing both in-store and online, but if you can order from the comfort of your home for free, then why bother heading into a crazy busy shopping mall?

Free-shipping will only be offered for a limited time, and the 70% off sale is only on select styles, but there is still a great selection to choose from at Browns.

These women’s B2 knee-high black leather boots, with a wide heel are only $119.98, which is a 60% reduction from their original price of $298.

Or if you’re in need of a pair of more functional winter boots to get you through your morning commute in the city, without completely dragging down your style, then you should check out these B2 Leather combat boots, which are now only $58.98 (was $198).

Get your Canadian tuxedo this weekend at Penningtons Canada, either online or in-store, in their buy one, get one pair of jeans free sale. You’ll have a choice of straight leg fitting jeans, along with flare fit, but if you’re really wanting to double up on the denim you could even pick up this distressed denim dress shirt in the sale, which is only $46.

However, if you’re wanting to maximize your savings then your best bet would be to grab two pairs of jeans, like these curvy fit straight leg jeans in a dark denim wash (only $65). And to then pair them with a pair of jeans of equal or lesser value, like these savvy fit straight leg jeans in charcoal grey, which are also $65.

When you combine the two, you will only end up paying $65 plus the $7.50 shipping and handling fee from Penningtons, which is still only $72.50 for two pairs of pants making each pair of pants work out to cost $36.25.

Penningtons Canada is offering free-shipping on orders that exceed $100, but with this deal on denim the extra $7.50 is a negligible amount considering how much you’re saving already.

While you may think that Mark’s Canada is a retailer that mainly specializes in work gear, you will be quickly corrected in their winter sale going on this weekend where they have a buy one, get one free sale on women’s fashion sweaters (and men’s too) and their buy one pair of jeans, get one pair 50% off. The jean selection that you’ll have to choose from ranges from high-quality jean brands like Levis all the way to Silver Jeans.

These dark wash men’s slim fitting Levi’s are $79.50, but if you were to get a second pair of Levi’s, like these slim straight ice cap jeans, then you would only pay $119.25, which is $39.75 lower than what you would’ve paid.

And in the buy one, get one sweater free you could get this long-sleeve wrap front cardigan for only $54.99 and then get a second sweater of equal or lesser value for free; like this long-sleeve leather trim cardigan, which is also $54.99.

In addition to these two “buy one, get one” sales, Mark’s is also reducing all Denver Hayes boots and shoes up to 30% off. That means that these slip-on dress shoes, which were previously being sold for $89.99 are now only $67.49.

And if you spend over $50 at Mark’s, you will receive free-shipping on your order and you will also qualify for a $10 off promo code when you enter, DECSAVINGS2014, at checkout. This $10 off will only really make sense to use if you are $10 above the $50 requirement, otherwise it will put you below the minimum purchase for free-shipping and you’ll end up paying for the shipping.

For instance, if you were to just get these Denver Hayes slip-on dress shoes, and use your $10 off promo code, you would only pay $57.49 and you would still qualify for free-shipping.

On NCIX.com you can get yourself a solid pair of bluetooth headphones rather inexpensively, that is if you don’t mind waiting a bit of time for them to be ordered in and to receive your mail-in rebate. If you don’t consider waiting to be a deterrent, then you should consider buying these Antec A.M.P Wireless Mobile Bluetooth Over-Ear Headphones (in Black) as they are only $39.99 with a mail-in rebate, and even $79.99 without the rebate-which is still a pretty good deal considering they were originally $199.99.

Since this was such a hot deal, the Antec A.M.P wireless mobile Bluetooth over-ear headphones (in black) have sold out of stock, but you can still order them on back order and they will be shipped once they are back in stock. This special pricing deal will only be available until December 17th, so you only have a few more days to take advantage of it.

The shipping and handling will not be free on this item, but even with the shipping this is still significantly cheaper than most Bluetooth wireless headphones on the market.

To get the discount, you’ll just have to add the black headphones to your cart (note, other colours are not being sold at this price) and then to receive the $40 off mail-in rebate you will have to fill out this form and print-off a copy of your confirmation when you register your claim online at www.antecrebates.com. You will also have to send in a copy of the original receipt, then you will receive your rebate in the form of a pre-paid $40 VISA card.

The Microsoft Store Canada deal for today in the 12 days of deals is not the Jawbone Mini Jambox portable speakers, which are normally $129 but till 8am tomorrow (which I doubt they’ll last until) they will only be $69.

The only colour left in this sale, because it is super hot in its price reduction of almost 50% off, is the red dot Jawbone mini jambox. These are great little speakers that pack a lot of punch of sound considering their size, all due to the two front-facing proprietary drivers which direct sound to you and the passive bass radiator.

You can also connect these Jawbone mini jambox speakers to any Bluetooth enabled device within 10 metres to stream music, or it can also be connected to any device that has compatible headphone outlets.

The Microsoft Store will ship these little guys to your house for free, but you had better act fast as the graphite hex and aqua colour have already sold out-and the sale just started at 8am EST today!

Addition Elle Canada is jumping on the Canadian free-shipping offer today as well, and they are also having to awesome sales on dresses and footwear where select regular priced styles are 50% off.

Their selection for 50% off footwear ranges from sleek, black suede rounded toe pumps to these Sam Edelman booties, which are only $92.50 (was $185). The footwear sale ends today, so if you were thinking of taking advantage of the free-shipping offer then I’d suggest checking out the footwear sale as well.

The options for 50% off dresses in this sale, which is only on until December 15th, is pretty slim but I was still able to find this ivory coloured lace v-neckline dress for only $60 (was $120).

If you wanted to break from the tradition this year on New Year’s eve and don a jumpsuit in lieu of the little black dress, then you could really make a statement in this belted black jumpsuit from Addition Elle, which is now only $65 (was $130).

Free-shipping is only going to be offered with no minimum purchase until 11:59pm EST tonight.
