*savings alert*

Hibachi

Our fav, restaurant.com, is having another sale. (In case you haven’t picked up on the trend, gift certificates start to go on sale about 10 days into every month, and the savings increase as the month continues.)

Now through April 13, you’ll get 60% off when you use the code “SEASON” at the checkout.

Anyone else feel like the site is becoming more and more popular? For two months in a row, the certificates I want to purchase are sold out before I can use any saving codes. But if that means that more of you are snagging up the great deals, I’m still a happy camper.

kmart . . . seriously

Kmart shop

I was reading my free subscription to Glamour last night, and I happened across a Kmart ad for spring dresses. And I really liked some of them. And that surprised me a little.

I’ve been a big fan of Target since, well, my first trip there. But Kmart has always fallen short of the “chic” allure that Target (pronounced “tar-jhay,” obviously) hits so easily. But maybe a change is coming? Maybe the recession has sent designers hunting more anywhere to showcase their work?

Only time will tell, but for now, I may get this adorable white spring dress. (I am a sucker for any cute shirtdress in white or navy.)  If you’d like one too, make sure you visit Kmart.com/fashion-able for a free $10 coupon.
