I am pretty pleased with this deal: get a set of 2 Spindle book ends at Chapters Canada for 50% off – now $19.95, regularly $39.50. Not only that, they quality for free shipping (when you hit $25 min). It is less than $10 per book end.

What totally tickles my fancy about these is that they qualify for free shipping!! Almost all other book ends at Chapters Canada get thrown into the heavy/oversized categories and it would cost you an arm and a leg for shipping (like $8.75). This set of books ends are not considered overweight so you can get free shipping if your cart reaches the minimum $25.

So I was thinking: Order 2 sets which will total $39.90, and qualifies for free shipping. Then use the coupon code MARCH032012 (as the order is over $30) and get an extra $5 off. Then you will have 2 lovely matching sets for $34.90 and get free shipping.

I price compared with Amazon Canada where it is priced at $44.99. You are saving an additional $4, which is equivalent to 10% the sale price.

This series is well loved so far, with great ratings like this one from Amazon:

I will freely admit to not being a fan of many HBO shows. I loved Entourage, but that was it for my HBO fandom. Then along comes Game of Thrones. As an avid sci-fi and fantasy fan, I was a little skeptical…but I have to admit that this show was brilliant from top to bottom. The sets, the storyline…the acting. All top notch!

I have never seen the show, have you?

So I have a whole cart load of books I am planning on buying, and I would like to share my current wish list with you. I am big into fashion so Second Skin: The Erotic Art Of Lingerie and 100 Ideas that Changed Fashion are on my to-buy list. I am also a big manga/anime fan so getting the next March Story, Vol. 3 is certainly big on my list. We are going to Paris, France for vacation this summer and Eyewitness is a great travel guide, so Eyewitness Travel Guides Paris is a must-have (also a great deal at 34% off). Last but not least I want to get Vampire Empire Book 1 because I have heard really good things about it.

What is on your wish list?

Chapters Canada has a great sale of for an entire month.  From now until 1st April 2012, they have select “Dummies” books on sale at 50% off the regular prices.

• Click here to shop the “Dummies” sale @ Chapters

I personally love this series of books.  There are a couple of the books that i am interested in buying.  One of them is the Gluten-free Cooking for Dummies on sale for $11.99 (regular price is $23.99).  So many people that I know are on this special diet and I would love to have a few of these recipes handy.  Another one that caught my eye was a recommendation from a friend.  They told me that they bought the Guitar for Dummies book and they play very well now.  I was told that it is easy to follow and really works!  It is on sale right now for $14.99 (regular price is $29.99).  For someone who just wants to learn, to play for fun, this book is an inexpensive way of learning.

In addition to this great deal, they have a promotion to go along with it.  Until 1st April 2012,plum rewards and irewards members can enter to win 1 of 4 cash prizes of $5,000 with the purchase of one of the “Dummies” books. Check out Chapters Canada for the rules and regulations.

Chapters Canada has a very good deal on decorative pillows. Pick out a Snowflake Sparkle Pillow in either grey or purple. Originally priced at $49.50 each, they are on sale for $12.37 – a savings of $37! You can also pick up a Fireworks Pillow for the same discount… 75% off!

• Click here to get a couple Snowflake Sparkle Pillows

• Click here for a Fireworks Pillow

The great thing about the snowflake pillows is they do not look Christmas-y at all, in fact they barely look winter-y. They have a beautiful pattern+ colour that would be suitable for the couch or the bedroom anytime. I think they would go well on a bay window seat.

All the pillows have a 100% silk cover – which is just lovely to touch and really speaks of quality. They are a 20 x 20 pillow and come with the pillow insert.

Free shipping on orders of $25 and don’t forget our coupon code for $5 off $30.

Chapters Canada has select DVD and Blu-ray movies and TV shows on clearance for up to 86% off the regular prices.  There are movies as low as just $5 for a limited time only.

Here is a peak at some of the titles you can choose from:

• Sisterhood of the traveling pants $5
• The Noteboook $9
• Glee The Complete First Season $40

My husband and I love to watch movies at home because it is an inexpensive form of entertainment for us.  You can rent movies from various places on the web and cable providers but they can cost over $10 a movie.  Chapters Canada has an awesome movie and TV show clearance section with many items as low as $5.  It makes more sense to buy the movies you love or are interested in seeing rather than renting.  That way you can watch them over and over again or even share them with others.  This is a limited time offer and I noticed that these movies are selling out really fast so you will have to be quick to snap up your favorites!

You may think I am absolutely CRAZY to be posting about Christmas Candy in February – but Jan and Feb are the BEST times to buy Christmas candy, it is so cheap! Right now you can get 75% off Hammond’s Nostalgic Christmas Mix Candy in Giftable Tin! You will pay only $4.25 per tin, instead of the original $17! The tin itself is probably worth that price.

The tin holds 1.25 lbs of hard candy – wow! The great thing with hard candy is it stays fresh for quite a while – like into February. Yum yum! I am such a candy lover, and I prefer hard candies because I tend not to eat them as quick.

This lovely tin of candy has a 4/5 star rating with 6 reviews.

Expiry: when this sells out (which will probably be quick).

Something I’ve been wanting for a while are the Steig Larsson Girl with a dragon tattoo books (not to be confused with The Dragon With The Girl Tattoo!!) Having seen all the movies in their original Swedish version, I’m looking forward to reading the Millenium Trilogy. It’s my birthday next week… maybe I’ll get a literary surprise.

This section caught my eye on Chapters front page though – The Ultimate Must Lists. I’d be curious to know how many destinations I’ve visited in the 501 Must Visit Destinations for $14.99. I’d say I’ve probably seen about 10… things like the Great Barrier Reef, The Eiffel Tower, Taj Mahal, Grand Canyon… I’ve still got a lot to see though!

By the way usquebaugh, by sharing a deal on the Bargainmoose forums, you’re eligible for an extra contest entry to win the $75 La Senza gift card.

Chapters Canada has a great deal on right now for their Kobo Touch e Readers.  Buy 1 and save $20 or buy 2 and save $50.  This deal will be valid until 15th February 2012.

• Click here to shop at Chapters Canada

These Kobo Touch eReaders are on sale for just $119 each (regular price is $139).  If you buy 2 of them, the price for each becomes just $114, which is $25 off the regular price.  I did some price comparison to make sure that this sale is a great price. Remember just because something is on sale does not make it a great price!  I found the same eReader at Best Buy for $139.99, I found it at Staples for $139, and I also found it at Walmart for $129.99.  I could not find it less expensive than the sale at Chapters.

Here is a customer review of the Kobo Touch eReader:

I got my eReader for a Xmas present this year and I absolutely love it. I’ve read more books since I got this ereader than I have in a couple of years. AND I’m still reading books from the free library. I haven’t bought any books for it yet cause the selection is great.

The great thing about this deal is that if you know someone else that is looking for an eReader you can get 2 and save even more.  Or maybe you and your spouse like to read a lot and would each use one.
