Whether you're following Hurricane Issac or tuning into the Republican National Convention, there's lots of events going on this week.  Plus, Labor Day caps off our long weekend - Yay!  With that in mind, we have incredible deals that are being posted as we speak and I've picked the 5 best deals for you to take advantage of.

Deal #1: Do you like shopping at deal sites?  I enjoy a plethora of them because they all have something to offer at a deeply discounted price.  Gilt City has a coupon for 50% off everything you purchase.  Now that's what I'm talking about.  But don't snooze, the deal ends TODAY!

Deal #2:  I like my smoothies and so do my kids.  Buying it from the store is not cost-effective when it comes to buying it for 2 adults and 2 kids, but I do love the convenience of it when I can grab one on the go.  Right now, sign up to be a Jamba Juice Insider and get a printable coupon for a sixteen ounce smoothie for just $2 (enter your zip code and you'll be directed to the sign up page).  Within 24 hours of signing up you should receive the coupon via email. Limited time offer. 

Deal #3:  I love KitchenAid mixers and their food processors, however, it's rare to come by a really great deal.  I remember Sears offering a gift card with purchase that was really good, but I haven't seen a great sitewide deal until now.  ShopKitchenAid.com has a coupon that gives you 30% off your entire purchase (sweet deal for cooks or bakers).  Limited time offer.

Deal #4: Looking for some "rad" looking boardshorts, swimwear, wetsuits and more?  If you are or aren't,KillerDana.com has a discount for 60% off everything.  They also have lifestyle clothing that's just too cute to pass up and with the discount you'd be crazy not to eye-shop, at the very least.  They are offering this incredible deal because they are changing ownership.  So it's the perfect time to score an amazing deal. Limited time offer.

Deal #5: OriginalPenguin.com has a coupon for 30% off Sitewide and they also include free shipping.  My husband bought some polos from them and I love the sleek style (it definitely has that contemporary casual feel to it).  Expires 12/31.

Have fun maximizing your savings this week and enjoy your Labor Day weekend!
