Friends and family promotion by invite only? Psh~ I’m all about the “sharing is caring.” Especially when it’s a promotion based on the concept of ‘friends & family.’ Nothing says I care about you more than helping a loved one save.

Bloomingdales is hosting their annual Friends & Family sale. Little brown bag? psh! Big brown bag, thank you very much. Shop now online at bloomingdales.com and use promo code HOLIDAY. Rather see it in person? In-store sale begins November 11th, 2009. A real savvy fashionista would first select her prime choices via website and go in store with a plan. Time is precious, waste not.

Need a personal invite? MissChicgeek can help. Simply email me your request at info@misschicgeek.com.

Any savvy online shopper knows the cardinal rule of online shopping is ALWAYS search for a coupon code prior to purchase. We’ve all been to RetailMeNot, SlickDeals.net, CouponCabin and DealCatcher to search for a money saving coupon posted by a good hearted soul. Finally the benefits can go both ways. While I was searching for an airline code, I stumbled upon CouponChief. As I investigated, I realized that every day people can earn money by posting coupon codes of their favorite online stores. CouponChief is an online destination for any savvy online shopper. Best part is that CouponChief has this “pay-2-share” program. For every coupon code used, CouponChief will give the user who posted the coupon 2% of the sales. 2% of a sale just for posting a coupon code that anyone else can get online? Sign me up! From clothing stores like Tobi and Piperlime to cosmetic stores like Sephora and Benefit and even hardware stores like Home Depot, CouponChief’s got you covered. Why not give back to the person who saved you 10% off your purchase?

Next time you’re looking for a coupon code, hit up CouponChief and give back to the person who just saved you a pretty penny on your latest online buy.
