Labor Day blowout at Lands’ End

There’s no rest for weary shoppers this Labor Day weekend.

Lands’ End is offering 35% off all new arrivals in its holiday weekend blowout. Yup, the fall fashions, including such seasonal must-haves as cable-knit sweaters and windbreakers.

The before-season sale also means you don’t have to wait until the end of fall to get a deal and have to settle for the colors nobody likes or discover your size is sold out.

Shipping? Not to worry. It’s on the house for orders of $50 or more, after the discount is applied.

If you shop at your favorite brick-and-mortar store you won’t have to wait for the postman. In-store merchandise is marked down 30% across the board.

 

 

 

 

Merry Free Shipping Day

Today is Free Shipping Day, another made-up phony-baloney event.

Golly, it’s not like it’s Black Friday, a REAL holiday.

But, hey, there’s something in it for you.

Simply head to your favorite online retailer. Think Land’s End, Pottery Barn, Williams-Sonoma, Neiman Marcus. Shop away. Then hit the send button.

Your goodies will arrive in time for Santa to place them under the tree. For free.

 

 

Old school look for a new age from Land’s End

High tech meets tradition in the needlepoint iPad case from Land’s End.

The sturdy sleeve is embellished with anchors, which gives it a nautical vibe and makes it a good choice for guys or gals. There’s an option for monogramming, should you desire the personal touch, dear chap.

While the case will protect your tablet from getting dinged while transporting  it from home to the Wifi cafe, this isn’t one of those cases you can use as a stand. Consider it a low-tech solution, an old school art form that will keep your iPad comfy, cozy and safe.

The case is currently sale priced at $39.99.

Like the look? You also can get a plaid needlepoint case for your Kindle or Nook e-reader.
