Liquidation Sale - Sheets, Quilts,Cookware, etc. 11/7/2008 12:21:17 AM

Available at:   Linens ‘n Things stores & www.lnt.com

What I think:   It's always a shame to see stores go out of business and Linens ‘n Things is no exception.  Yet there can be an upside for consumers in the form of deeply discounted items for the home.

Everything is on sale now at their website and remaining stores - with no return policy, of course. 

Now here's an interesting twist:  Linens ‘n Things is no longer accepting their own off coupons - but other sellers, liked Bed, Bath & Beyond are accepting them as "competitor coupons."  Go figure.

So, as I mentioned in a recent blog, never toss out those coupons, no matter who they come from, no matter what the date.  If you have saved the Linens ‘n Things coupons, you can still use them at Bed & Bath, just as I did yesterday.

I used 12 Linens'nThings coupons shopping at Bed, Bath & Beyond, and saved 20% on everything I bought!  That let me keep my Bed&Bath coupons for future use.  I thought that was kind of brilliant if I must say so myself.

Once Linens ‘n Things becomes history, those coupons won't work, so use whatever ones you've got now!

Do you Freecycle? 9/27/2008 3:24:47 PM

We all know that we should recycle, but do you know that you can also freecyle usable items that you would otherwise place in the trash? Freecyling is a grassroots and entirely nonprofit movement of people who are giving (& getting) stuff for free. It's all about reuse and keeping good stuff out of landfills. Membership is free. To sign up, go to our local community freecycling group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/akronfreecyclecafe/

Here members can:

  • Share community resources, including "freebies" as well as "nearly free" resources, for example, thrift stores, yard sales.
  • Request info. If you've got a "How do I?" or a "Where can I find?" question, feel free to ask your helpful members!
  • Ask for help. Local Freecycle™ members can offer you great advice on all sorts of subjects.
  • Offer Services. Want to volunteer or exchange your services for a needy cause or a worthwhile fellow member? This is the place! Nonprofits can also seek volunteer help here. 

Have fun freecycling!
