The Daily Deal for Thursday, October 9, 2008: is "The Two Towers" DVD, for 88% off retail price.

One film to rule them all. One film to bind them. One film to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them.

We all know what film we're talking about here. Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings. Yes, it's a three-film series, based on J.R.R. Tolkien's immortal trilogy of the same name. And yes, today's Daily Deal involves only the second film, "The Two Towers."

Serious fans won't care. This DVD, filled with significant added footage and extras, including cut scenes that add 43 minutes to the original theater-length running time, is priced at the ridiculous sum of $3.49 (plus $4.99 shipping and handling). That's 88% off regular retail price, and so low even an Orc could afford it.

But pray thee hurry, ere this treasure most rare is sold out.

I love candles! They smell wonderful, create a wonderful atmosphere -- and they looked better than a can of air freshener. Kohl's is having a great sale on 17 ounce soy jar candles. Regularly priced at $9.99, they're being offered at $4.50 each with coupon code NEW425. Your entire order ships for 99 cents. Hat tip: SlickDeals.net

The Daily Deal for Saturday, October 4, 2008

My sweet husband has a problem with phones. Specifically, he loses them. He's lost his Blackberry and I've been tiring of paying the monthly fee for his account on the 'friends and family' plan, without having the benefit of being able to actually CALL HIM.

Perhaps we can remedy that without having to pay the rather large cost AT&T would charge us for replacing his equipment in less than 22 months. J&R.com has the refurbished Blackberry 7100 on its Weekend Sale for only $99.99; $17 less than Amazon.com's deal and $80 less than the regular discounted price (the list price is $349.99, but we all know no one pays retail for these things). The phone is unlocked, so you can use it on any cellular plan. This Blackberry utilizes the "SureType" keypad; I haven't used it but, according to RIM, it's the best evah.

SlickDeals reports that "Gamestop offers a Free Used Game withl your purchase of 2 used games (with code GSB2G1). The lowest price game will be the free one. This is valid in store and online both."

Another thing: if you like the idea of having a video game system but haven't wanted to spend the money, GameStop is also offering refurbished Nintendo GameCube systems for $30! You can get used games for under $10 and, with the coupon code, walk out with a GameCube and three games for less than one Ulysses S. Grant.

The Daily Deal for Saturday, September 27, 2008

Got grocery bags? If you're in Seattle, Washington or a number of other U.S. cities considering following the northwestern trailblazer, you might be replacing your plastic bags with something more permanent. The Gregory Gran Torino bag sounds like a great answer; it combines "the best features found in briefcases, messenger bags and urban backpacks and blends the functionality into a look that's distinctly contemporary and complete."

It's high praise from a bag manufacturer, of course, but it's a good deal so why not check it out? Other retailers had the bag listed at $74.95 to $128.95, so this is a screaming deal at $24.97 at Altrec.com. It includes a laptop sleeve, waterproof outers, and lots of room for books or groceries. Bike to class, bike to the coffee shop, bike to the grocery store, and your things will be fine. Best of all: no 20 cent surcharge to carry home your bagels and brussels sprouts.

The Daily Deal for Thursday, Sept. 25 is: Men's suits at up to 70% off.

Look. It's getting ugly out there, economy wise. It might be a smart use of your shrinking American dollars to buy yourself a new suit and ready yourself for the job market. You know, just in case.

The first place to go is Jos A Bank, purveyors of all that is manly and executive. The retailer is currently selling fine men's suits for up to 70% off retail prices.

Like this lovely specimen to your right, for example. It's a two-button, premium light wool suit and trouser blend, normally selling for $550, now on sale for $199. Can you afford not to make an investment in such a steal? Check out this and other fantastic suit deals here, and hurry, because the sale ends Sept. 26 or until supplies last.

There is a snap in the air in many parts of the U.S., which means leaf change is not far away. Sadly, leaf change is quickly followed by leaf fall, and the need to rake, pile, bag or mulch leaves. A leaf blower can make the job go much faster.

The Toro Ultra Vac 51599 was a Consumer Reports Best Buy for convenience, performance and durability. Amazon currently has the Toro on sale for $69.99, $10 to $20 less than most retail locations. The deal comes really comes to life with free shipping. Keep in mind that it'll cost you $.50 per mile to drive to a store to buy the same model. If you don't live in the heart of consumerville, free shipping could save you a lot of money.

The holidays are quickly approaching, and with them so is the need for a bigger memory card. Thankfully Kingston has come to the rescue, offering a 2 GB SD card for $6 with free shipping to boot. This is an excellent deal on a memory card and would be the perfect stocking stuffer for the budding photographer in your family. It would also make a great companion to the cheap digital picture frames that are predicted to be on sale on Black Friday!

A 2 GB SD card can hold somewhere in the range of 1,000 pictures depending on the quality you choose, providing more than enough space to capture all of your favorite holiday events, even those you'd rather forget, such as uncle Frank's gut busting turkey dinner! SD cards can also be used to save games on the Nintendo Wii which while overrated in some areas, has the most consumer friendly game save media.

Generally a 2 GB SD card from a name brand company such as Kingston will cost you at least $15 in a brick and mortar store or $11 plus shipping from another online store. Any time you can pick up three for the price of one qualifies as a good deal in my book!

Which is why this Daily Deal is so totally -- literally -- cool. This Coleman full-sized backpack cooler is 40% off suggested retail of $49.99, selling for a dirt cheap $29.99. Take it to the beach.

The Daily Deal for Thursday, Sept. 11: Cashmere bed socks

Sometimes we all want just a little comfort at the end of the day. A cup of tea. A nice fire. Some cashmere bed socks...

You heard me right. Cashmere bed socks. Maybe you haven't heard the term "bed socks" before, but use your imagination and roll that phrase over your tongue: bed socks.

Gives you a little tingle, doesn't it? Can't you just imagine the feel of your tired dogs slipped into the welcoming, ultra-soft cocoon of cashmere as you get into bed at the end of a long day?

Sure, perhaps a little profligate. A bit on the line with silken, lavender-filled eye shades and 1,000-count satin sheets. But when you're only paying $25 for an item that normally sells for $62.50 and up, it's a little luxury that you can afford to let change your life. Or at least your dream life.

And as long as we're being disgracefully pampered, buy two pairs (pick the color of your dreams as well), and stock up for the long cold winter. Your feet will thank you profusely.

AllPosters.com has a fantastic sale:many 24"x36" posters, and some larger. Click here to browse.
