Ready for Summer!

I don't know about you but I'm ready for summer. Flip flops. The pool. The smell of sunscreen. My teaching partner has already started counting down the days. Every year around this time I feel like my students and I just hit a wall... this year, it's a case of full blown summer fever! So of course, you have to decide on the perfect suit. Even those of us that loathe the swimsuit buying humiliation/process... it's a necessary evil!

If you've been eying a suit at Target, they have several great offers on already marked down swimwear. Target is offering a 20% off one swim item and a $5 dollar off a $20 dollar or more Merona purchase. Making many suits under $30 dollars for the complete ensemble! You can grab both coupons on Target's website or find them here.

Lands End is also offering some great deals on their more pricey swimwear. Many styles are up to 50% off and you get free shipping with orders over $50 dollars. You can claim that deal by entering the code FSAFF and using the pin 2121. Lands End is definitely higher quality than Target, so you get what you pay for! This budgeting gal, decided to go with quality, a 30% off coupon, and last year's discounted style over total price. You can always ask for a free swatch from Lands End if you're conflicted. You also may want to check out the "on the counter" section of the site. They offer various products and discount further as the week progresses. Last week they had a ruffled tankini top for only $6.95! The pink tankini top featured above is on sale for only $32.99 (retail $54) this week!

Lastly, if you have a more rockin' bod than I, Victoria Secret is offering a swim promotion through midnight! Enter code Swim20 and receive an 20% off clearance swimwear! You can go here to see all the clearance styles.

Shoe string lesson: Never pay full price, especially if you prefer the online dressing room to the actual store. Always check out sites like Retail-Me-Not to find coupon codes for discounts and free shipping!

Let the countdown to summer begin!
