To be completely honest, I’m a first time Q’er 
. I just tested this out, and the code covers your entire purchase total at QVC (including shipping) up to $10. Some of the items have free shipping, some items are under $10 – huge variety in items and costs (they even sell food?!).

Yes, I know we’ve all just barely put away the Christmas decorations, but since I missed the iMommies Christmas season in 2008…I think I should keep a keen eye out for 2009! If you just can’t bring yourself to shop for an event 11 months in advance, there are plenty of other holiday items on sale at Oriental Trading Company through February 9th. The sales items are too vast to list, but here’s what I found this evening…just a little something fun to put away for NEXT Christmas.
Two adult-sized Gingerbread Aprons, one child-sized Gingerbread Apron, and a box of Christmas resealable sandwich bags…with an online coupon code, my total came to $7.95. Just $7.95 for a fun afternoon of Christmas crafts (uhhh 11 months from now), three cute aprons for each of the kids while baking (and they’ll look adorable hanging on the kitchen hooks during non-baking holiday times), and 150 festive sandwich bags for school lunches and holiday party favors. Who can resist that?!

Chase Bank offers rewards to Chase Visa debit card holders via a point system. Each dollar spent is worth one point, and as those points add up, you can redeem them to purchase products or gift certificates from an online catalog. (Chase actually has two reward programs and this one is completely free…the other program rewards three points for each dollar spent, though there is a small monthly fee.)
Enroll your Chase Visa debit card in the Chase Visa Extras free reward program and receive 5,500 free points as an enrollment bonus. The bonus will be added to your point balance no later than April 14th, 2009, and can be redeemed at any point after that. What’s an extra 5,500 points worth? A free $10 gift card to CVS, Target, JC Penney, Chili’s, Barnes & Noble, Starbucks, etc.!
In addition to the free 5,500 points, you’ll automatically earn a point for every dollar spent when using the “Credit” option during any transaction.
