Ebates

I've been using Ebates for years, almost every time I shop online. They work with lots of retailers I love, like Sephora, Target, and Old Navy, to give you rebates on your online purchases. Right now they are running a fabulous sweepstakes that you enter by sending emails from their special referral page. I'd love to refer you! If you will leave me your email address, I will send you an email with my referral link. Or if you prefer, you can just follow the hotlinks above.

Since joining Ebates, I have received back $1956.33. In cash! How amazing is that?

Happy Birthday Ebates!

We've chatted about Ebates before, and just how much I love shopping through them. In honor of their 15th birthday, Ebates.com is offering up a crazy 15% cash back through May 19th at over 100 stores including some of my favorites like Sephora, Macy's, Avon, and Lancôme!

Spring = Baseball!

Y'all I am ready for some baseball! (Had to throw in this pic of my favorite Cubbie, picture taken by moi, thankyouverymuch.)



This morning I got an email from Old Navy about their new MLB line, and it is so cute and affordable. Just placed an order for some Cubs shirts to support P's team, going thru ebates of course for 2% back, and using code TUESDAYS for 10% on Tuesdays (duh) when you use your Old Navy or Gap card. I threw in some Yankee garb too, since they are my personal fave.

Hurry up baseball season!

Kisses to Buford Betty!

Buford Betty, I am giving you big smooches today! You are my fashion hero!

I wear black slacks and dress shoes most days to work, so I am always on the lookout for a cute, comfy shoe with some sort of heel- being only 5'2", I need a little height. And last March I posted about my latest find, the Madden Upskale pump.

They are absolutely darling and so so comfy. I love the little ruffle and think it gives it a little "something".

Last week Buford Betty posted about some of her baby shower outfits (yay for the soon-to-arrive Buford Betty Baby!), and LOOK LOOK LOOK, she found the same shoe, called Sondra Ruffle, at Target in PEWTER! And RED! AND ONLY $20!!!!!!!

I am sure it goes without saying to say that I ordered them. In two colors.

They arrived last night and fit PERFECT and are exactly like the $50 Maddens. So today I am sporting the Pewter ones along with a company grey cardi and I look FAB. Well, as fab as you can look in company garb.

So I just wanted to give Buford Betty a big shout-out and pass on this fabulous find.

One quick on-line shopping note: Ebates offers 3% back for shopping at Target, so be sure and start your shopping there. And if you are new to Ebates, we'll each get a sign-up bonus of at least $5. (Disclosure: The link to Ebates is a referral link.)

Ebates 12th Birthday

It's still super busy around here, but wanted to make sure all my online shopping friends know about this fabulous deal.

Ebates is turning 12 years old and they are celebrating by offering 12% back at 114 stores. And I don't know if you noticed, but my favorite store of all, Sephora, is included....... Squee!

Ebates will be sending me my latest Big Fat Check on Sunday, and that brings my total rebates from Ebates to...... $1198.59, and that's CASH folks. Can't beat that!

Target Deal of the Day

Target has a great "Deal of the Day" today. These darling rain boots are $20 with free shipping! Quite a few places in the US are getting snow right now and these would be perfect.

Don't forget to go thru ebates for 3% back! (And if you are new to ebates, we both get a $5 referral bonus!)

Newest Foundation Find

Too Faced Amazing Face SPF Foundation Powder ($32 at Sephora)

For the past week or so, I've been trying out Too Faced's new powder foundation, which I purchased from Sephora, and I LOVE it!

Description from Sephora.com:

Go from sheer and natural to full and flawless with this flexible-coverage foundation. The weightless pigments float over imperfections to minimize the appearance of pores and fine lines, while instantly improving tone and texture. The formula contains the innovative Regu-Seb, which helps to control and reduce oil production and leaves skin looking fresh. It also features Bamboo Silk, a nutrient-rich ingredient that revives and renews the skintone to promote a balanced texture and impart a comfortable-feeling finish.

Rather than use the sponge it came with for application, I've been using a flat top brush and love the coverage it gives me- heavy enough to even out my skintone, but still light enough to look natural.

What foundation are you loving right now?

By the way, if you ever do order from Sephora, don't forget to go thru ebates for 4% back. And if you are new to ebates and register using my link, we each get $5 cash.

This Cheered Me Up a Bit

The poor Politician is in bed.... not feeling well at all. His birthday party has been cancelled.... poor guy.

And our anniversary is today and we had plans for a night out, which also won't be happening.

So here I sit feeling sorry for the Sashas. What terrible timing this stomach virus is. Big picture is "This too shall pass" so I am sure we will find another day to celebrate.

And I did just get an email from ebates that my Big Fat Check is on the way. And it's $57.13 this quarter! Fab!

Surely you are an ebates member... surely! If not, head on over there and sign up, get your $5 bonus, and then refer all *your* friends to build your check even more- you get $5 for each friend who refer. I am so appreciative to all those who have signed up under me over the last few years.

Avon Nail Polish

I know not everyone is as nail-polish crazy as I am, but just in case you are.... thought I'd share a recent Avon order. I just placed an Avon order for some of their new colors- Avon is such an affordable brand- I love trying their new products.

Right now their polish is "Buy one for $5, get one for $0.99", so it's basically $3 per polish. I chose the two new green shades, Jade and Olive Green. Green is really hot right now, and if we know one thing, it's that I'm totally up with current trends (kidding, but I do think these look pretty).

I also ordered the three new Color Trend Ice Sheers Nail Enamels shown below- these are only $3 and they are scented. Fun!

My Avon rep, Valeri, is always so nice to let my readers use a free shipping code! Please follow these steps so you can use the code and give Valeri credit.

1. Visit Valeri's site to make her your default rep
2. Log into ebates to get 5% back and go through them to get to the Avon site
3. Once the Avon site pulls up again, you should see Valeri's name near the top of the site
4. Choose your products and then use code FSANY or REPFS to get free shipping

Happy Shopping!

Fresh Sugar Plum Lip Treatment

(photo from Sephora)

One of my favorite lip balms, Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment, is now available in Plum and of course I just ordered it because I am absolutely obsessed with all things plum. It's a bit pricy at $22.50, but it's a worthwhile luxury to me. I also have the Rose and Clear and have repurchased several times.

Sephora has a code for 10% off for their VIBers good through June 7th... V436CB

And good Lord, don't forget to go thru ebates.... 4% back.

The Tote That Will Change the World

How darling is this tote from Avon?

It was designed by Marimekko® exclusively for the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade. It's 100% cotton canvas with enamel pink-ribbon-motif zipper pull. The size is 16 1/2" L x 13 1/2" H x 6 1/2" D.

100% of the net profits ($6.24) will be donated to the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade.

At $10, I think this is a fabulous deal!

GDA: Boys Mocs at Lands' End

Boys All Weather Mocs from Lands' End

I am such a creature of habit! I've been buying these exact same mocs in mahogany for P for church shoes for the past 4 years! They are comfy, reasonably-priced at $29.50, and oh-so-cute!

Here's the best part: if you happen to need a 9, 10, 11 or 2, they are on sale for $14.99! I snatched up a pair of 13s for P last night, but they appear to be out of stock in that size today.

And here's a free shipping code for someone to use (expires today): Enter the Promotion Code OCT6 and the PIN 1006 in the space provided.

And if that code happens to not work, just click on "Get Live Help- Chat Online" and sweetly ask if they have a free shipping code since the one you have doesn't work, and they might just give you one!

By all means, don't you forget to go through ebates! I'm approaching $900 in cash back since I joined and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!

Sephora Sun Kit + Bonus Ebates Cash Back!

Sephora Sun Safety Kit $22.50 ($110 value)

I had two fabulous things in my email box today.

The above Sun Safety kit from Sephora, which I totally mean to order every year, but am totally doing today. Girls, take care of your skin! I always had a savage tan back in the day, but I am paying dearly for it- my face looks terrible- hyperpigmentation, freckles, wrinkles.... I am so mad at myself! I use sunscreen every day now.

And on top of that........

This weekend, Ebates is doubling cash back from purchases at Sephora!!!! Fabulous- you get 8% back! Sign up under me and we'll both get $5!

Also, use code JUICE to get a 1 oz oil free moisturizer sample. And shipping is always free on $50.

Ebates Daily Double is Avon today!

Fabulous Sasha Says reader Erin G pointed out to me that Avon is today's Ebates Daily Double! That means they are offering 10% back rather than the usual 5%, today only. If you saw my Avon post last week (free shipping codes included!) and haven't gotten around to ordering yet, today's definitely the day.

Now, if you have yet registered for Ebates, what in the world are you waiting for? I got an email this morning that my quarterly check is on the way- and it's $173! Ebates is wonderful about referrals- if you sign up under me, we'll both get $5. And then you can refer all your friends and family members and get $5 for each of them that signs up! Such a win-win situation!

Let me know if you have any questions.

Happy shopping!
