Now that the
Republican National Convention and the
Democratic Convention are over, let's focus on how much money we can save. Truth be told, a lot of people were tuning into the convention hoping for answers about their financial future.
If there is one thing we can do for ourselves, it's to be financially conscious. And one way to go about it is to start changing our shopping habits. Whether it's cutting back, using coupons or only shopping the sale and clearance sections, we ultimately have the power and choice on how we are going to spend our hard earned money.
To make things easier for you, I've compiled a list of the 5 best deals on our site this week. We hope to make your shopping experience easier, save you time and ultimately empower you to take charge of your financial future.

Saddle bags have returned to fashion, and in a big way. This style of bag marries the preppy trend, the equestrian trend, the collegiate trend and the military trend perfectly. Not only that, a saddle bag is a classic look that can dress up and down with ease and will still look chic seasons after the trend leaves the runway and your glossy fashion magazines.
Changing your bag is a great way to look on-trend for the season without having to revamp your entire wardrobe. Imagine a simple black turtleneck sweater and dark straight jeans with an oversized clutch. Now envision with a slouchy blue leather hobo bag. See that same outfit with a classic saddle bag--amazing how the change of your purse can totally change your personal style!
While there are designer saddle bags available for hundreds of dollars, you can get this same look for far less without sacrificing style. Here are some of my favorite budget-friendly saddle bags.

It's officially Fall! I'm not sure if you've ventured out into your local shopping centers, but the displays, mannequins, decor in stores have all switched to fit the season. I now see lots of pumpkins, orange colored candles, Halloween themed decorative accessories, cinnamon apple wreaths and more.
With Fall in full force, now is the time to start making your shopping lists for the holidays. Try to plan early and you'll be able to maximize your savings, save time and be the person who kicks back and sips hot chocolate while everyone else is running around like chickens with their heads cut off on Christmas Eve.
Every week leading up to the holidays and more, we will have the top 5 deals from our site just for you. We've got some great deals that will help you on your holiday shopping extravaganza.

Whether you're following
Hurricane Issac or tuning into the
Republican National Convention, there's lots of events going on this week. Plus, Labor Day caps off our long weekend - Yay! With that in mind, we have incredible deals that are being posted as we speak and I've picked the 5 best deals for you to take advantage of.
Deal #1: Do you like shopping at deal sites? I enjoy a plethora of them because they all have something to offer at a deeply discounted price.
Gilt City has a coupon for 50% off everything you purchase. Now that's what I'm talking about. But don't snooze, the deal ends
TODAY!
Deal #2: I like my smoothies and so do my kids. Buying it from the store is not cost-effective when it comes to buying it for 2 adults and 2 kids, but I do love the convenience of it when I can grab one on the go. Right now, sign up to be a
Jamba Juice Insider and get a printable coupon for a sixteen ounce smoothie for just $2 (
enter your zip code and you'll be directed to the sign up page). Within 24 hours of signing up you should receive the coupon via email.
Limited time offer.
