The Disney Store is having some great sales online right now with 50% off select items -in addition, they are offering FREE shipping thru Monday, Labor Day. This makes for some great deals you can find!  For FREE shipping, all you need to do is use the coupon code: FREESHIP at checkout.

Some of the best deals you’ll find are the character backpacks & lunch boxes.  Of course, school has now started for most kids (or in the next week) so most likely you’ve already bought their bags.  However,  kids can be quite hard on items, so it might be good to buy an extra set to replace mid year at these prices!

Just head on over to the Disney Store & click on the 50% off sale graphics on the front page – or click on “Shop by Category” & then click on “Sale” to see all the items listed.  There are quite a few Toy Story items, which is quite popular right now with the kids after Toy Story 3 in the theaters (which will also be coming out in November via DVD/Blu-Ray)

Here are a few of the items I found:

Personalized Woody Backpack – $7.99 (Regularly $19.50)

Personalized Buzz Lightyear Backpack – $7.99 (Reg $19.50)

Birthday Mickey Eco Shopping Bag – $1.49 (Reg $2.50)

*My SIL brought little gifts for my girls when they were out a few weeks ago visiting from FL & she packaged them in these cute shopping bags! I thought this was such a great idea for wrapping a present – super fun for the kids & then a great bag to keep!

Minnie Mouse Lunch Tote – $3.99 (Reg $12.50)

Thanks for the great tip, FB Fan Rachel!

Sign up to receive a FREE sample of Pampers Dry Max Diapers from Sams Club – you do not need to enter a membership number to receive this sample.  They are offering Size 3 or 4.  I love getting diaper freebies in the mail – great for keeping as an extra in the car or diaper bag – or pass it along to a friend if you no longer have any kiddos in diapers.

Thanks Free Snatcher!

Update: Unfortunately this site has been having problems with the rush of people trying to get the freebie, so they have been having problems all day. Looks like we might need to try again tomorrow.

Wow, there’s a *hot* new coupon that was released today! This coupon is for $5 off when you buy 5 select Kraft cheese or dairy products.  When you use your coupon, Kraft will then donate 5 meals to Feeding America.  Make sure to hit the back arrow, refresh & print 2 coupons.

If you live near an Albertsons store, this coupon will pair up great with a sale starting today so you  can get FREE cheese – here’s how it will work:

Buy {5} Kraft Brick or Shredded Cheese  - $2/ea
Use the $5/5 printable Kraft coupon
Pay $5 for the cheese, Receive a $5 off catalina from the register (good on a future purchase)
Final Price: FREE

Update: I just tried this at my Albertson’s & wanted to emphasize that this deal will only work on the brick or shredded cheeses. The coupon also includes Sour cream & Cream Cheese. However, when I added Cream Cheese to try it, the Catalina did not print.

Just an FYI, I’ve found that shredded cheese freezes very well – I have quite a bit still in my freezer from the 10 cent cheese at Fred Meyer earlier.

Here’s a list of the participating products for the coupon (this coupon is valid from 9/1 – 11/7/10):

KRAFT Singles
