Tips for Shopping Coach Factory Stores + Coupon

Who says you can't enjoy luxury on a budget? I know some of you simply don't understand the allure of Coach, or any other designer handbag for that matter, and I get where you're coming from (pssst!  this post is for you). However, this post is geared towards those of you who do, and a few things I've learned about what to look for when searching for bargains.

Coach Factory Stores basically stock two kinds of merchandise: items that had been in full-price retails stores prior seasons and are getting clearanced out, or items that are created specifically for the outlets. The items created specifically for the outlets take up the vast majority of floor space there. They are labeled with an "F" in the serial number.

The items created specifically for the outlets are based on best-selling full-price Coach bags. They're all made with the same quality of materials as full-price Coach. But, they often don't have the same amount of detail work such as hardware, stitching, closures, etc. Because of that difference, when you pick them up they often feel lighter.

The best way to tell which bags had previously been in retail boutiques is to ask an associate. I did notice a couple things: They didn't have the "F" in the serial number, but had a target sign stamped on it instead. Also, the prices on the boutique merchandise tended to be a little higher. It was 30-40% off while most of the factory merchandise was 50% off.

Think there's nothing but spendy, overpriced merchandise in the Coach stores? Think again! You can often pick up cute accessories for under $30 (even less after coupon savings). They make great gifts for babysitters, sisters, moms, and teen daughters.

Now through March 21st, save 20-30% on your outlet purchase. Here's a link to print the coupon. Valid 3/17/10 - 3/21/10.

St. Patrick's Day Grocery Bargains

Grocery bargains revolve around holidays and special events, and this week is a good one! All those yummy Irish foods like corned beef, cabbage, and potatoes are going to be promoted as loss-leaders. If you've never prepared a corned beef brisket, it's simple and SO YUMMY. Leftovers taste great in sandwiches, too.
Here's how:  Place the brisket in a large Dutch oven. Pour a 12-ounce bottle or can of beer over the beef, to use as a simmeriing liquid. Add 3-4 cloves of garlic, whole, peppercorns and a bay leaf. Simmer for 3 hours on low. Cook vegetables like carrots, cabbage and potatoes in the remaining liquid until tender. Let the brisket rest for 10 minutes then slice or shred to serve.

Your search for bargains can be after the holiday itself. Look for meat to get reduced for quick sale right after the holiday passes, and stock up for your freezer.
Easter bargains are next, so be on the lookout for ham, eggs and other holiday favorites.

Target Launches First-Ever Scannable Mobile Coupon Program

MINNEAPOLIS (March 10, 2010) – Target is the first national retailer to offer a scannable mobile coupon program that allows guests to receive exclusive offers directly on their mobile phones. Coupons are redeemed by scanning a barcode on the phone at checkout.

“At Target, we know that mobile phones are an integral part of our guests’ lives, and mobile coupons are just another way we’re providing convenient, on-the-go shopping solutions,” said Steve Eastman, president of Target.com.
Guests can opt-in to the program on their PC at Target.com/mobile, on their phone at m.target.com or by texting COUPONS to 827438 (TARGET). After opt-in, guests receive a text message with a link to a mobile Web page that contains multiple offers, all accessible through a single barcode. Offers are single use and expire on the date listed.

Target’s point-of-sale scanning technology makes mobile coupons possible, and Target is the first major retailer with the ability to scan mobile barcodes in all of its stores. A leader in mobile retail, Target continues to offer innovative mobile solutions for guests. In addition to using the new mobile coupons, Target guests can access their Target Mobile GiftCards, view online assortments, check product availability and store locations, manage their Target gift registry and lists, browse the weekly ad, and receive text and e-mail notifications of great deals – all via their mobile phones.
