The Google Play Music store is full of Christmas freebies today, some of which are not necessarily Christmas themed (like the Katy Perry single, “Teenage Dream”) and other which are strictly Christmas. They are giving away three different Christmas albums that are a mix of classical music with just instrumentals and then songs that are solely vocals.

The first album, Play Classical: Christmas is a traditional mix of classical Christmas songs, and would be an excellent ambience soundtrack for your Christmas dinner as it does not compete with any dinner time conversation you may be trying to make.

The second offering from Google Play is called, YouTube Audio Library Holiday, and it includes both vocals and instrumental versions of the popular Christmas tunes you’ve come to know and love.

And the last album includes 14 of all the holiday favourites, sung in a joyous and pop like styling to appease the crowds during your holiday get togethers. This one is called, Play Classical: Christmas Favourites and it too, like all the other albums, are free. 

You can play these songs on an Android with the Google Play app, or simply listen to them from your web browser in your Google Library.

While FragranceX claims that their promo code for free worldwide shipping expires on December 9th, it is still live right now if you can catch it before it does expire. Simply enter the promo code, FSW, at the check out and your duty-free fragrance will ship for free to Canada, or anywhere else in the world you may be ordering from.

Plus, if this is your first time shopping with FragranceX you can enter your e-mail address and receive a limited time 72-hour coupon that will give you 10% off your order. For instance, I was able to grab my favourite Burberry Brit eau de toilette in a 50ml bottle for only $35.69. 

Burberry Brit normally sells at the Hudson’s Bay for $72 and on Amazon.ca for $47.99 in the same 50ml size. They’ve also got a wide selection of men’s cologne, skin care products (like Biotherm and Clinique) and women’s makeup.

Hush Puppies Canada has an extension on their employee discount offer of 60% off on all shoes and boots (just in time for the holidays!). All you have to do to qualify for this discount is enter the promo code, HPEMPLOYEEFREESHIP, and you’ll receive the 60% off plus get free shipping.

As a lot of you may already know, the Hudson’s Bay Canada also sells Hush Puppies and they are often discounted below the retailer’s own site, but I thought I’d do a comparison of some of the Bay’s top selling Hush Puppies and stack them up against the Hush Puppies selection with their employee discount to see what was cheaper.

These Jamie Kana Hush Puppies ankle boots are sold on the Hush Puppies site for $150, and on the Hudson’s Bay they are sold for $150 as well, but with the employee discount you can grab these booties for only $60.

I also saw these Lindy Chamber wide calf boots on the Hush Puppies site being sold for $230, which is the same price as the Hudson’s Bay, but they also had the extra option of buying them in either this dark chestnut brown or black. The Bay only gave you the option to choose from the plain black, and after the discount was applied to the boots they were only $92.

In addition to being lower priced and more selection than the Bay, Hush Puppies is offering free-shipping on all orders, whereas the Hudson’s Bay requires you to spend a minimum of $99.

Hush Puppies is offering this extension until December 15th, so you only have a few more days to take advantage of this deal!

J. Crew Canada will be giving both in-store shoppers and online shoppers the chance to save on some last minute Christmas goodies this week until December 15th, at 11:59pm EST where when you enter the code, GIVETHIS, at the check out you will be discounted 30% off.

The only catch that J. Crew has is that only the full-price items with the “30% off with code GIVETHIS” written beneath them will be applicable. Though some select sale items will also be included in the sale, they too will be advertised with “Extra 30% off with code GIVETHIS“.

This box pleat skirt in fiery red was originally being sold for $98 USD, but was on sale for $69.99 and then with your promo code of an extra 30% off it will only be $48.99; nearly 50% off the original retail value.

Or for the men, again within the sale section, you can find really nice dress shirts like this slim secret wash with embroidered white arrows, which is only $24.49 with your extra 30% off (though its retail value is $92.50!)

J. Crew will also be giving you free-shipping in this offer GIVETHIS, which will also finish up on December 15th at 11:59pm EST. But before you start doing your happy dance, you should know that J. Crew does not include the customs tax in the clothing price, so when you go through check out you will be docked an extra $10-$15 depending on your order size.

Trying to think of what you can make for dinner? I might have a quick, easy and affordable solution for you! Right now, Food Basics Canada has an excellent offer listed in their flyer.

For a limited time, or while quantities last, you can shop at your local Food Basics Canada store and stock up on Ristorante Thin Crust Pizzas for only $2.88! This is a hot offer compared to their regular price of $5.99 each. At this price, I would fill my freezer! These pizzas are great to just pop in the oven and please the entire family.

There are different flavour and topping choices to please everyone in your family. Choose from Mozzarella, Chicken, Vegetable, Pesto Pepperoni and more. There are also the Shrimp and Salmon ones but I do not believe they are included in this offer. Not my first choice of Pizza Type anyway, yech!

This offer expires on December 11th, 2014 so make sure you stock up now!

TOMS Canada will continue with their 12 days of giving promotion until December 13th, where you can save more on TOMS when you spend more and use the corresponding promo code, GIVEMORE, at the checkout.

These red plaid seasonal TOMS slip-ons, which can also be functional for spring and summer with the little hiccups of aqua blue you see scattered in the pattern, are only $65 and would make an excellent present for yourself or best-friend.

Or if you’re looking for a present that is functional for both winter and summer, you could add-on these warm shear lined rust coloured TOMS, which with the red plaid slip-ons will give you options for every season. These toasty slip-ons are also only $65, meaning your order total would come to $130 so you would qualify for the 20% off GIVEMORE discount.

After entering your promo code, TOMS will discount your order $26, making the total cart order $119.60 as they also include the VAT tax at checkout. Shipping will be free as well, and what’s even better about TOMS is their One-for-One charity that with each purchase of shoes, they will match and give a person in need a pair of shoes. It’s always nice to save money at this time of year, but it also makes you feel good when you know that you’re money is going towards helping someone in need as well.

Microsoft Store Canada is having an amazing deal within their 12 days of Deals this morning. Just announced at 8am, Microsoft will be selling their Xbox One Bundles for $50 off their retail price plus you will be able to pick a free game to be included in your bundle. Unlike other sites that are selling these bundles for $50 off, such as Amazon.ca who also has the Xbox One Kinect bundle for $449, Microsoft is including a free game of your choice, with some of the selections being worth $69.

The full selection of games you’ll have to choose from include:

• Destiny for Xbox One- $69.99
• Forza Horizon 2 Day One for Xbox One- $64.99
• Minecraft for Xbox One- $19.99
• Forza Motorsport Game of the Year Edition-$49.99

• Sunset Overdrive- $64.99
• Assassin’s Creed Unity- $69.99
• NHL 15- $69.99
• Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare- $39.99

The best bang for your buck would probably be to invest in an Xbox One Limited Edition Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare bundle, which would include a download of the game which alone costs $69.99 on Amazon.ca, and then adding Halo: The Master Chief Collection as your free game as it too is being sold for $69.99 on Amazon.ca.

This deal is live now on Microsoft but won’t last for long, as it is the hottest combination of games and system you will find on the Xbox One right now. Plus, Microsoft Store will ship to your home for free, even if you’re shipping within Canada.

Remember to check back in tomorrow at 8am to see what Microsoft’s next offer in the 12 days of deals will be.

Home Outfitters Canada has launched a new “Daily Deal Reveal” on their Facebook Page!

They have announced their one day only offer that will be valid on Sunday December 14th, 2014. So head into your local Home Outfitters Canada store on Sunday and you can enjoy the following daily deals for the Holiday Season:

• Save 60% off Gluckstein Home Lux, Pantone, and Charisma Towels
• Save 50% off of the home Studio Recliner

This Home Studio Recliner looks perfect for watching movies with a bowl of popcorn! Growing up, my parents each had their own designated chair in the living room. Looking at this, I kind of want one of my own!

On the less expensive side, the towels on sale also look great. There is a wide variety of colours and options available to match whatever decor direction you decided to go with for your bathroom. I personally have Gluckstein Home towels and they have lasted well. The colour has faded a little bit, but I have had them for quite some time.

Bluenotes Canada is having a buy-one-get-one 50% off sale on all regular priced merchandise, which is really good news if you’re shopping within the lounge and sleepwear section where sets are starting as low as $10 at their regular price. In addition to this great savings event, you can also receive free-shipping on all orders within Canada when you spend $50 or more.

The PJ and sleepwear set collection at Bluenotes has some really good finds, particularly when you stack sets so you can qualify for the 50% discount. For instance, this girl’s rib tank and capri PJ set is only $10 and would be an adorable (and affordable) gift to give to your teenage daughter to open on Christmas eve so she may wear them to open presents on Christmas morning.

If you also have a hard to please teenage boy in the house, then you should look no further then these festive and ‘cool’ boys’ ‘nutcracker’ lounge pants which are only $12. If you were to get both of these sets, then your total would come to just $22.05, as Bluenotes will discount the cheaper item in your bag, which in this case is the $12 lounge pants.

Home Depot Canada is having their 12 Days of Holiday Tool Deals promotion right now. You can shop online at Home Depot every day to enjoy a brand new 24 hour daily deal. This is an excellent offer to take advantage of if you need any last minute Christmas gifts for the Handyman (or woman) in your household.

Today’s Home Depot Canada Holiday Tool Deal is as follows:

Unfortunately shipping is not included in this particular Home Depot Canada offer, but the shipping cost only looks to be estimated at $7.48 (in the Greater Toronto Area). This product boasts a 5 out of 5 star review average, which is great!

The reviews say that this Jig Saw has great torque, sharp and superbly designed saber! The variable speed dial will enable to user to adjust the cutting speed depending on your materials etc. The soft start motor even gradually increases speed which eliminates that annoying start up shock!

Enjoy!

Right now until the end of today, you can buy this Silicon Power S70 240GB SATA 3 SSD card from NCIX.com for only $99.99, which is $30 off of the regular price of $129.99. 

You’ll remember earlier today how we posted about a Crucial 240GB SSD card that was also being sold for the amazing price of $89.99. This Silicon SSD card, however, has a maximum write transfer write of 550MB/s and a maximum read transfer rate of 557MB/s whereas the Crucial SSD card has a sequential read of 500 MB/s and a sequential write of 50 MB/s.

Both are good deals, but the decision between the two will come down to what you value in your SSD card. NCIX.com does offer free-shipping too, so the price of $99.99 is the final price you will pay.
