Stop walking through life on your tip toes. Feel secure and grounded as you stomp and sashay with confidence. Even penny-pinchers will click their heels together at the Payless Bogo Sale.

Buy one pair of shoes and get one free when you use the coupon. You’ll also get free standard ground shipping and handling with any order of at least $50! Now that’s something to get excited about! But don’t dilly-dally because these two offers are only available until September 4.

If you splurge on one pair of shoes this season, ladies, make it the Jill Kitten Heel. Sexy sirens blare through all-night dancing in these practical, stunning shoes with slightly-pointed toes and thin straps. (One peak at this baby left me purring! I love it in the candy-apple color.)

Aren’t you ‘plaid’ you went shopping at Payless? (Har har har. I know. I won’t quit my day job.) I absolutely love the cute Airwalk Cosmic Skimmer because they feature a red-plaid print that can appeal to both punks and A students.

Rummaging through every shoe store looking for The One that fits your tender tootsies and matches your outfit? The Love Satin Dyeable Peep-Toe Pump comes in white, but can be colored to the perfect hue of your dreams. (And the best part about it? Now you won’t have to worry about wearing the same shoes to the party as your arch-nemesis.)

Payless carries much more than shoes too! You’ll also find backpacks, socks, handbags, watches, and more. And even though I’ve mentioned a few showstoppers for women, Payless also has footwear and accessories for the men, girls, and boys on your list.

Run off with your coupon to Payless today and have a happy ending filled with great deals!

Many people fear change because it disrupts our comfort zone. It mixes things up like Life’s Blender on purée. But when monotony strikes, we’re itching for something new that is perhaps a little dangerous. (Who hasn’t experienced the thrill of taking a risk?)

Stop playing it safe with personality-free white walls. Dare to incorporate textures, colors, and prints into your home with throw pillows and funky slipcovers! Rise to the challenge and follow your decorating dreams to fruition.

Unsure which direction you should chart your course? Check out The Bombay Company’s Labor Day Sale for lots of fantastic finds. Use your coupon to get 30% off all regular-priced items! And enjoy an extra 25% off all clearance products. Take advantage of these two offers by September 3.

Memorable interior décor starts with an inspiration that may or may not hit you between your eyes (ouch). Sometimes it’s the family heirloom that inspires and other times, it could be the texture of the sweater you saw on the cute redhead at work.

No matter where you get your decorating vision, run with it, play with colors, and dare to reinvent your space. Break out of the cycle and embrace novel ideas.

I really love the Oxblood Goddess. It’s exotic and would give my living room a more worldly touch. And the Jeweled Turtle Magnifying Glass and Letter Opener is fully functional, but conveniently also acts as decorative pieces.

For my friend, Maggie, who’s big into abstract (and dare I say ‘trippy art’), the Oyster Platter would rock her world with a psychedelic wash of hues.

Head to The Bombay Company and add personality, style, and substance to any room in your home!

National Trail Mix Day - I’ve known some big trail mix fans in my time. I mean, it’s great for snacking on, and if you throw in some M&M’s, BAM, you’ve got dessert. Anyway, I’ve got a coupon for you REAL fans: get $30 off trail mix orders of $150 or more at Office Depot. I know what you’re thinking - buying $150 worth of trail mix is freakin’ extreme. But I bet there’s still one person out there who’s seriously contemplating this deal. Yeah, you know who you are.

Love Litigating Lawyers Day - Lawyers are fierce. They’re smart. They’re observant. And, most of the time, they’re way too focussed to stop and smell the roses - so send them some! If you’ve got a lawyer in your life (and you love them), order them a great rose bouquet for 10% off at ProFlowers. Attach a cute note insisting they sit back, relax and take things in. Even if it -is- only for 2 minutes.

When September rolls around, you know what that means - the kids are going back to school. But there’s something more important (not that your kids aren’t important) - you have limited time to fire up the grill!

If you don’t get your last grilling session in, you’ll have to wait until next year before your nose can experience that smell of juicy barbecued ribs and tender burgers. Oh and grilled corn on the cob? Sure, you won’t miss the kernels getting stuck in your teeth, but surely, you’ll miss the sweet juices that squirt in your mouth when you take a bite!

My mouth’s watering. My tummy’s growling. And if you’re itching to have another BBQ like me, you should scoot over to Barbecues.com now and scoop up 10% off all orders over $199.

It’s not just grills you’ll save on. You’ll find fireplaces, stoves, outdoor furniture, outdoor lighting, outdoor accents…should I go on listing what else they sell? Why not check it out for yourself at Barbecues.com? Sale ends September 4th.

Tiger Woods, Stefi Graf, Phil Mickelson, and Maria Sharapova are just some of the many famous names that come to mind when you think of golf and tennis. They rose to the top of the competitive totem pole thanks to their talent, determination, and choice of sports equipment.

Choosing the right racquet and putter can make a world of difference in your performance. Golfsmith offers a wide spectrum of golf and tennis equipment suitable for everyone from the curious beginner to the powerhouse pros.

When I first started playing tennis with my brother back when I was in elementary school, many of the balls ended up on the rooftop, so purchase a whole bunch before going on your tennis tangent.

Even the greats didn’t pop out from the womb with incredible aim or a strong serve. At some point they had to learn to resist the urge to un-cock their wrists too early on the downswing and to slightly direct the ball downwards. Before they got it right, they got it wrong.

Increase your performance potential and practice with the proper equipment when you shop at Golfsmith for your irons, wedges, and drivers. And don’t forget to pick up a few balls with a low-compression core for maximum energy and more control from tee to green. It’s about time you start yelling “Ace!” more and “Fore!” less.

Save big at Golfsmith and exercise your athletic muscles on the court and on the green!

More Herbs, Less Salt Day - Consuming too much salt is linked to high blood pressure, heart disease and stroke, so why is it such a popular seasoning flavor? It’s easy to avoid salt by replacing it with fresh herbs. For example, instead of using salt on your popcorn, just sprinkle on some dill. There is no substitute for fresh flavoring, so head over to Park Seed and buy a Culinary Herb Garden. Now you can grow your own dill, English thyme, oregano, chives, spearmint, sweet marjoram, basil, parsley and Cilantro. Use FabulousSavings coupons to get 10% off everything at Park Seed.

National Whiskey Sour Day - The Whiskey Sour is a mixed drink containing bourbon whiskey, lemon juice and sugar. Like all cocktails, a sour is best experienced outdoors on a hot summer day. Before the weather cools, buy a new patio bar at Wal-Mart and get everyday low prices. At Wal-Mart, you can find any style of patio set to compliment your backyard.

For many years when I was a little kid, I searched high and low for Dorothy Gale’s ruby slippers. (Not the actual ones, but look-a-likes, of course!) Guess what? Now in my 20s, I’ve finally found pretty good ones at SmartBargains - Carlos by Carlos Santana Flirt Red Sequin Flats.

Who says that blazers have to be stuffy and all business? Take a walk on the 70s-inspired side with the groovy Calvin Klein Brown Velvet 3-Button Blazer. Oh yeah, baby!

Crackers Over the Keyboard Day - We all give into eating at the computer at some point, and crumbs inevitably fallen between the keys/cracks. (One time I actually knocked orange juice onto my laptop. It was a sad day.) But crackers… well, cracker crumbs can be safely removed by gently vacuuming your keyboard with the soft brush attachment. Can we try to keep the crumbs away from the keyboard next time? Invest in some awesome plates for 11% off at Oneida. You’ll also get free shipping on orders of $100 or more.
