Saving Money Online – Healthy Deals (And Learn How I Scored a Pair of Champion Sweat Pants for 15¢!)
By
~ I just got a pair of nice Champion brand sweat pants from thredUp for our son Elias for just 15¢! I am so excited!
How did I do this? Since I just heard about thredUP, I was able to sign up and get a $10 referral credit. Plus, this month they are offering a 20% discount when you use the code AUGUST20. Here’s how to score an awesome deal like this:
- Click through and sign up for an account at thredUp. $10 will immediately be put into your account.
- Place item(s) of choice into your cart - boys and girls clothes from infant all the way up to size 20!! If you choose something that costs $3.80 or less, with your $10 credit and the 20% discount, you’ll get the item completely free. (Elias’ pants were $3.99, so I had to pay 15¢ after all said and done!)
- Head to checkout. Your $10 will be automatically deducted. Click on the “promo code” option to enter the code AUGUST20. 20% of the total price will then be knocked off.
- Share your own referral code with friends on facebook and through email if you’re interested in earning more credit.
~ If you go through a lot of Real Maple Syrup, I found that you can get a half gallon jug for $36.00 at Amazon. You’ll need to click on the “Grade B” option to receive this price. I prefer Grade B as it is slightly less processed, therefore contains more nutrients.
~ Tropical Traditions is offering a 10% coupon code, valid through Monday, August 20. (Minimum order $16) Use the code 21282 at checkout to receive the discount. Their Expeller Pressed Coconut Oil is buy one get one free right now so you can get two – 32 ounce jars for $25, plus the 10% discount. Expeller Pressed Coconut Oil is flavorless – a perfect way to consume this healthy oil if you aren’t a fan of coconut flavor.
~ I was excited to see that iHerb is offering a $10 discount to new customers with an order over $40, or a $5 discount to new customers with an order under $40. Use my referral code: BID487 to receive this discount. Plus, orders over $20 ship free! I really like ordering my Enjoy Life Soy Free Chocolate Chips through iHerb. :)

You just reminded me that yesterday I found coconut oil at Costco for I think 20 cents per ounce. I’ve never seen it at Costco before and thought some of your readers would like to know.

I thought the coconut oil looked like a good price but then I realized it is refined. Do you recommend refined or unrefined coconut oil? thanks.

The refined from Tropical Traditions is just as healthy for you as the virgin oil. It is just processed differently so it doesn’t taste coconutty. I like the virgin (which tastes like coconut) for baking, and the expeller pressed for frying or for recipes that I don’t want to taste coconutty. :)

Laura, I’ve learned a lot from your website, and you make cooking healthfully so much simpler! Just to let you know, I grew up making maple syrup with my family in Michigan. At least here, the Grade B is processed exactly the same way as Grade A. As the season progresses, the syrup just naturally turns darker and stronger and is graded by color. Grade A makes good table syrup. I like Grade B for cooking because of the more intense flavor, but both are healthful.

For anyone with a Trader Joes near them, they have a great deal on maple syrup too. At mine, a 32 oz jug is $17. (We’re in the Central Ohio area).
