Save 30% on Elf on a Shelf!

November 30, 2010 by

Barnes and Noble has a printable coupon here to save 30% on the Elf on a Shelf!   Deals on this little guy are hard to come by, so this is a great offer!  It is valid in store only and expires on 12/6/10.

We got our Elf on a Shelf two years ago.  If you’re not familiar with Elf on a Shelf, he’s an elf that comes from the North Pole during the holiday season to watch over your family.  He reports back to Santa each night and returns in a different place in the house the next morning.  It comes with a cute book that explains the whole story.  Sometimes he does some silly things along the way!  My daughter started asking before Halloween if and when our Elf was going to come back.  It’s a really fun tradition.

Here’s our Elf hiding:

Here are some sites with fun ideas for things you can do with your Elf:

ING is having a Black Friday sale of their own.

I have had ING accounts for almost 7 years now and I love them!  I opened an Electric Orange account a few years ago under a similar promotion.  I put my Christmas savings there and then I have money in an account and can use the debit card to buy Christmas presents which helps me stay within my budget!

You can also jump start your kids savings when you open a new Kids Savings Account through ING.  There is no minimum deposit required, and you get a $25 bonus just for opening the account!  This offer is only valid for new customers.  Details are here.  I have opened a savings account through ING for each of my kids when they were born.  It’s a great way to get help your kids learn how to start saving money!
