CMM's 2017 Holiday Gift Guide - Part 2


Welcome to Coupon Mama Massachusetts' 2017 Holiday Gift Guide

Need some gift-giving ideas? I've compiled a list of products I've either reviewed here on the blog or personally use and love. I hope you find it helpful in your quest to find the best gifts for your loved ones.


I absolutely love this Food Storage Container Set by Ozeri! Reduce your kitchen waste and keep foodstuff fresher for longer with this self-vacuum sealing storage containers. BPA free and they nest within each other when you're not using them! This is a must have for every kitchen. Check out how much I loved this set.


If you're looking for a gift that will make the recipient's life so much easier, I highly suggest the Roomba. Yes, it's pricey,  but there are tons of great sales going on for Black Friday. We have a Roomba - we even named him Chewy - and we love him! It is 110% worth every penny we invested in it.



Need a stocking stuffer for your significant other? I am just obsessed with Ralph Lauren's Polo cologne. It makes my hubby smell super yummy! Smaller bottles fit perfectly in a Christmas stocking. And it's self-serving - you'll be sure to have a great smelling spouse!



Wood watches are such timeless pieces. JORD creates the most amazing watches out of exotic woods, some I haven't even heard of! These are totally worth the money. Check out what my husband and I thought about these watches. And save 25% with the code cynthiashannon at checkout.




If your darling is a handy-man or an aspiring handy-man, new tools are sure to brighten his day. I asked my husband for his #1 recommendation. His choice? This DeWalt Cordless Drill. The cheapest price I've found is on Amazon, but be sure to keep an eye out for this or a similar item in your Black Friday sales flyers.


My husband is a movie geek and when he had more time to lounge, a real gamer, too. Consider some new movies or games. My husband's favorite is Guardians of the Galaxy, although Vol. 2 was not as funny as the original.


Or how about an XBox Live Card? Strangely, a physical card is a few bucks less than the digital code - AND free shipping!


I love myself some glamorous jewelry but I'm too afraid to wear the real stuff to work. But when I can get the real stuff for that costume-jewelry price, I'm all for it! Check out these great Swarovski crystal earrings by Cate & Chloe. And until 11/30, you can get an additional 30% off with the exclusive codes found on my previous post.






Help destress that beautiful lady in your life with this Innogear Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser. Your lady can lie in bed and relax to any of 7 soothing color mood lights and two mist settings. Don't forget to get her the Onepure Aromatherapy Essential Oils Gift Set - purchase both at the same time and save 10% on your oils!


Consider making a purchase that will help give back to a charity your lady loves and/or supports. I have two gorgeous bracelets from Ashes for Hope, which donates a portion of its proceeds to various animal welfare agencies.

Or how about a beautiful, yet comfy, bra? Coobie bras are amazingly comfortable AND pretty! There is a wide selection of styles, colors and patterns so it may be hard to choose just one! And right now you can get 30% off your Coobies bra purchase with the promo code USFG at checkout.





Feeling crafty? How about this cute DIY Mommy's Sippycup?! An inexpensive, yet thoughtful and cute gift, particularly for moms with younger children who might find this "sippycup" extra useful.


I love yard saling and thrifting and when I come across unique mugs and teacups that may not have their matching pieces, I pick them up anyway and turn them into really cute soy candles. You can pick up the candle making supplies on Amazon or use all of those great 50% off one item coupons at places like Michaels and AC Moore. You can melt soy wax in the microwave, so you really just need a wick, a scent and/or color (optional) and the wax pieces.



A dear friend of mine is a fellow cat-lover so I made her this hysterically entertaining (in my opinion) cat butt ornament for her tree! You really only need felt, thread and a sewing needle to complete this project.





Have you been collecting gig upon gig of family photos? Put them together into a gorgeous photo book. Adoramapix offers the most amazing finishes for their photobooks, including leather and faux leather covers in a variety of colors! Check out the book I made for my husband last year.

Shop through Ebates and get 3% back on your purchase.



Looking for photo gifts but are on a tighter budget? Try Mixbook - high quality personalized gifts for a reasonable price. The best part is their online interface is super easy to use. And right now you can get up to 10% back if you shop through Ebates!




Don't forget to check out Part 1 of my Holiday Gift Guide, chock full of gifts for the kids, the infants/toddlers, and the animal lovers in your life.

It's **TIME** for a Giveaway: Timeless JORD Wood Watches

My husband has never been great at time management - he has a habit of being late to everything. And with the holiday season fast approaching, time seems to be a precious commodity, so it's even more important that he keep track of his time. But now my husband can work to improve his time management skills in style with his new Wood Watch by JORD.




When I was invited to partner with JORD to share their gorgeous wood watches with my readers, I immediately knew my husband would be ecstatic to be gifted one to review. He's mentioned quite a few times how much he wanted a watch, but particularly a handcrafted wood watch. My husband dabbles in woodworking so he knows the time and attention to detail required of such a stunning piece.




JORD hand crafts both men and women's watches from a variety of stunning and exotic woods, like Purpleheart, Koa and Zebrawood.  The folks at JORD value sustainability, efficiency, and experiential living and focus on creating timepieces that are modeled after a modern lifestyle. These watches are a truly breathtaking work of art.

My husband chose the Fieldcrest watch in dark sandalwood, which arrived in a gorgeous wooden box. The wooden watch band is a deep, rich chocolate color and the face is a large, yet simple statement piece. The craftsmanship is simply stunning and it's such a unique piece to add to my husband's slowly growing watch collection.

 





JORD wood watches are splash proof and come with a one year warranty. JORD offers free shipping worldwide and you can personalize your watch and/or the box it arrives in. The holidays are fast approaching - this would make the perfect gift and here's how you can save on it!

JORD Watch Giveaway
I’ve partnered with JORD to bring my readers an amazing giveaway! One lucky winner will receive a $100 JORD gift certificate towards the JORD watch of your choice.



Not feeling lucky? All of my readers can get 25% off your purchase. Just use my exclusive code cynthiashannon at checkout.

CMM's 2017 Holiday Gift Guide - Part 1


Welcome to Coupon Mama Massachusetts' 2017 Holiday Gift Guide

Need some gift-giving ideas? I've compiled a list of products I've either reviewed here on the blog or personally use and love. I hope you find it helpful in your quest to find the best gifts for your loved ones.


SmitCo offers a wide variety of great products geared towards the little princess in your life. You can save 20% off your purchase of SmitCo products by using promo code N3CQD6AE. Some of my favorites include:


  • Light-Up Unicorn Journal - I was just stunned to see that this journal really does light up in the most magical way! What a great gift for a little girl. Check out my review of this fabulous "Be Magical" journal!


Why not try a Brick Loot subscription? If your child enjoys Legos and building things, then this would make the perfect gift. You can get a 1 month, 3 month or 6 month subscription - save 10% off with the coupon code usfamily.



Need a great story to read with your child? My dear friend, Neal Bogosian, authored this wonderful novel, The Adventures of Chip Doolin, available in paperback as well as a Kindle edition. 




How about this adorable Little Golden Book: The Little Grumpy Cat that Wouldn't?




Itty Bittys make great, inexpensive stocking stuffers. There's an Itty Bitty for everyone - from Peanuts to Star Wars to the Walking Dead and just about every pop culture icon in between. Check out the cool Spiderman Itty Bitty I have!





Grossed out by the thought of putting your munchkin on the floor? All those germs give me the heeby jeebies. Squishy Mats are a great way to keep your baby off the germy floor while allowing him or her the opportunity to play. My pup, Riley, and I reviewed this product - check out what we had to say. Use the promo code USFAMILY at checkout to save 15%.



Need something a bit more portable than the Squishy Mat? Check out the Monkey Mat - great especially for the outdoors. And it's seriously barely bigger than a CD case so it'd barely make a dent in your diaper bag.



Leap Frog makes so many great learning toys for the young ones. A favorite I give for baby showers is the Leap Frog My Pal - Violet or Pal.




Whenever I see an Eric Carle book, I get all teary-eyed and nostalgic. The illustrations are just amazing. This hardcover set is great for little fingers.





This 2018 Lil Bub calendar is an absolute must for any animal lover. Why buy this?

1. Lil Bub is an amazing rescue story
2. Lil Bub is just so darn cute
3. Lil Bub is an advocate for homeless and special needs animals - she has helped raise over $200,000 for the ASPCA




I have this "Sorry I Can't. I Have Plans With My Cat." t-shirt and wear it on a regular basis.




How about this great t-shirt, perfect for the whole family! "Adopted is my Favorite Breed" superimposed over a cute dog silhouette - available in men's, women's and youth sizes! And right now, order through Amazon and get free returns in case it doesn't fit!



My husband and I currently have this Woof frame on our floating shelf; it holds the most ridiculous photo of our pup, Riley.



These cute kitty socks make great stocking stuffers!



There are so many adorable kitty earrings. Get a pair or two or ten (!) of kitty earrings for the Crazy Cat Lady (like me!) in your life. Here are a few of my favorites:

       

There are a variety of animal coloring books, but this Creative Cats one is my favorite. I keep it on my nightstand to help me Zen out when I'm stressed.

Save Money by Throwing Less Away - Ozeri Instavac Container Set HALF OFF!

Obviously you know I'm frugal. So my husband and I do our best to not waste food, but sometimes it's so tough! Zippy bags and plastic containers often let my fruit and veggies go moldy or over-ripened very quickly. So I was sooo excited when Ozeri sent me a complimentary Ozeri INSTAVAC Nesting Food Storage Container Set to try out.


This storage set is a really cool way to manually "vacuum seal" your stored goodies. Simply close the lid, then press down on the center of the lid. Your pressure will force the air out of the container through the one-way valve on the top. This removes excess air, which reduces the chances of bacteria growing.


As you push down, air squeezes out through the one-way valve.
The date dial is a nifty addition.




Some really cool features:

  • wave pattern on the bottom elevates fruits and veggies, keeping them out of water and juices, which often causes them to prematurely soften and mold
  • date dial on the top to record the storage date and keep track of how long your leftovers have been in the fridge
  • it is made of BPA-free, stain resistant, shatter-proof plastic
  • it is freezer, microwave AND dishwasher safe!!
  • the set of 4 containers nest within each other to minimize storage space when not in use


And as of the date of this posting, you can order yours for HALF OFF! Yes, that's right - it's listed on Amazon for 50% off the original price! If you have Prime, you'll get free shipping, too!

Save up to 50% Off your Aspen Ski Vacation!

My husband has been begging to take a trip to Colorado to ski. And now we can save up to 50%!!

Book your Aspen Vacation for Early or Late Ski Season & Save up to 50% off high season rates.

Aspen Square's warmly welcoming personality, ideal location across from the base of Aspen Mountain, and full hotel-style services and amenities combine to make our property a great choice for a memorable vacation year round.



  • Booking a stay at Aspen Square during the off peak winter season has many advantages for a frugal traveler. 
  • Early and late season rates can be as much as 50% lower than high season, for the same room type
  • More rooms are available in the lower seasons, so even hard to book rooms like our one-bedrooms or three-bedrooms are more likely to be open for booking.
  • Guests receive the same outstanding services and amenities as the high season guest
  • Smaller crowds translates to shorter lift lines, easier access to restaurant and event tickets
  • Pre-holiday stays allow guests to enjoy the festive ambiance without the crowds and costs associated with holiday rates and costs in town
  • End of season snow is sometimes the best of the entire winter season, with longer ski days in late March and early April

Young Girls' Gifts for 20% Off - Shop Early for the Holidays!

Can you believe there are less than 120 days until Christmas?! For me, that's right around the corner - I like my holiday shopping list to be complete BY December!

And one of my favorite ways to shop is from my sofa, in my pajamas. Online shopping has been a huge game changer. Want to shop SmitCo online too? Check the bottom for a 20% coupon code!

And I found the perfect gift online for my mermaid-loving niece, Elin.

SmitCo was kind enough to send me their new Top Secret Journal Set. And it's MERMAID THEMED! I just know Elin will love this gift - not only does she love mermaids, but she is obsessed with arts and crafts and doodling. This is the best of both worlds!





This journal set comes with a gorgeous mermaid-themed journal, a star shaped ballpoint pen with invisible ink (!), and an LED clip-on book light. There is also a sheet of sparkly mermaid stickers to use in the journal.

I was so impressed with the quality of the journal. Many for young girls are shoddily bound, but this one features a hard cover front and back and is really sturdy. And I can't wait to see what kinds of secret messages Elin plans to write with the invisible ink!

SmitCo also asked that I check out their exfoliating gloves, so they sent me a 2-pack to try out. Oddly enough, they came in my favorite colors - purple and green.


If you know me in real life, you know I'm not really a "girly girl." I've only ever had a pedicure twice in my life (once was for my wedding). So I had no idea how to use these gloves. But after a bit of research, I realized that they're in place of your loofah or whatever other shower tool you use.

These. Are. Awesome! They seem like they're only for tiny hands, but once they get wet, they stretch a bit. They don't fall off because there's a pretty secure elastic band at the wrist. Best part? You can run them through the washer and dryer. I can't even imagine how germ-y my loofah is... so being able to clean these is just awesome.

You can buy these in packs of 2, 4, 8 or 12. They make great gifts, so why not buy a larger pack and split them up among your friends? They come in a clear, plastic zip container that would be perfect to put your carry-on travel products in when going on vacation.

SmitCo offers many quality, affordable gifts for girls ages 2 to 12. They have several different locked diary sets for girls in Emoji, Diva and Mermaid themes, as well as scrapbook, nail and play dress up sets and party favors and to offer hours of fun.

If you're looking more for some glitz and glam, SmitCo products also include rose gold, gold or rhodium plated jewelry and sets, as well as very popular stretch sets for little girls - all packed in cute gift boxes.
