I posted previously here about the new JC Penney rewards program. I got a $10 off a $10 purchase certificate e-mailed to me last week, which I used to get some super cheap capri pants (I live in Texas so even though it’s “winter” you can wear capris one day and sweaters the next).
If you haven’t signed up for JC Penney Rewards yet, there is a new offer:
Get a $5 off $5 or more coupon valid for online and in-store purchases when you sign up for JC Penney Rewards using source code 3008 or 3050 and this link.
You will be prompted to register a credit card, which is required to earn future rewards, but it’s not required to get the $5 certificate. Just submit without a credit card. After signing up, log into your account and then go to rewards to print out the reward certificate.
Here are some good deals I’ve seen this week:
Fannie posted a coupon for Rainforest Cafe. My kids love to eat here, but we don’t go often because the food is expensive and doesn’t taste all that great. This link is for a $10 off $25 purchase coupon and for a free Volcano dessert with a purchase of $25 or more. It expires on 2/28.
Fannie also shared a Ruby Tuesday BOGO free coupon which you can access here.
High School Musical 3 – click here to get a coupon for $5 off the DVD (or $10 off if you are buying it on Blu Ray)
There is also a $5 MIR offer: $5 Rebate offer

GOOD LUCK!
If you’re new to bargain hunting, you may think that it will never happen to you because you’re on such a bargain high, but eventually it is a phenomenon that happens and I like to call it “bargain burn out.” If you find that your coupon inserts have been stacking up for the last week or two or you can’t find the energy to drag yourself out to CVS to do the deals, you may be suffering from bargain burn-out and that’s OK!
Here are a few tips for dealing with bargain burn-out:
Ask yourself “Do I really need this?” and “Will I really use it?”
If you’re feeling burned out, and that “to go or not to go” argument is running through your mind, ask yourself if the “deal” is something you really need. Also consider how great of a deal it really is and the likelihood that you’ll even be able to find it when you go out looking for it. Prioritizing is important. If it’s not a “critical” item, then it’s OK. Another deal will come along before you know it, and even if it doesn’t, you’ll be OK because it wasn’t something you really needed in the first place.
Give yourself permission to take a break
I’ve been a bargain hunter for several years now, and I’ve learned through the years that you don’t have to do every single deal that comes along (in fact, when you do this, you drive yourself to burn out) and it’s OK to take a break from hard core bargain hunting every now and then. Give yourself permission to take some time off because there will be plenty of other deals down the road.
Take time for yourself
Bargain hunting can sometimes seem like a full time job. Don’t forget to take time for yourself to do something else that you love.
