Our Favorite Online Deals Right Now – October 2020

October 8, 2020 by LifeBalance

Our Marketing & Communications Director Nicole highlights some of the deals that our staff, and members, have been most excited about.

Well Before – N95 masks are virtually impossible to find right now, and Well Before (formerly Honest PPE) has some — plus face shields, disposable masks, sanitizer, and other important PPE. Grab yours now.

LeafFilter – The leaves are coming. Spare yourself the treacherous trek up the ladder to unclog your downspouts with LeafFilter. Save 10%.

HalloweenCosplayer – If you’re looking for something super creepy that will freak the kids out on Halloween, look no further. HalloweenCosplayer has a variety of terrifying “helmet” (essentially, mask) options, as well ask masks that will let you impersonate a demigorgon, or Bane, or Boba Fett, or Mike Myers…and the list goes on and on. Save 15%.

Chewy – Given all this year has brought, it’s time to ask yourself an important question: is there any reason NOT to dress your dog in a unicorn costume for Halloween? Perhaps only if you’d prefer a shark costume, or a pirate, or hot dog, or baby Yoda. Chewy’s got all of those and more for dogs and cats of all sizes. Save $15 on your first purchase over $49.

Drinkpod – We’re digging Drinkpod’s JAVApod (similar to a Keurig machine, and more affordable), Fizzpod (like Soda Steam, only it looks way cooler), touchless sanitizer/soap dispensers (my friends have one, and it’s awesome), and more! Save 15%.

The Mountain – Need a new epic wolf shirt? An eagle facemask? A cat-as-Tom-Cruise-in-Top-Gun shirt? The answer, of course, is yes. You also need to make sure you take time to explore everything The Mountain offers, because from beautiful artwork to completely-over-the-top designs, this site is full of gold. I’ve already pulled the trigger on a few holiday presents for the family, and saved 25%.

1Thrive – The family calendar never looked so gosh darn cute! We love the stylish wall organizers from 1Thrive. If you’re looking to keep the family organized, or just add some charming-but-functional decor, it’s definitely worth checking out. Save 10%.

Ritual + Fancy – Our colleague Erin got us some Ritual + Fancy candles, and I didn’t expect to love mine as much as I do! The scents are beautiful, but not overpowering. As we move indoors for the winter, these — as well as the company’s bath teas and shower spritzers — are a great choice for creating a cozy, relaxing home environment.

Chaco – Our colleague Olin has been wearing the same pair of Chaco Z/2 sandals every summer since 2012, and they’re holding up great! Nowadays Chaco makes shoes and boots as well, so you can continue enjoying their famed comfort and exceptional durability when cooler weather rolls in. Save an extra 20% on over one hundred already-discounted sale products.

Iron Flask – Stainless steel, double-walled water bottles and tumblers at 15% off! We like that this offer is applicable to any Iron Flask product, so you can get the size, shape and color you want, and still get the products cheaper than you might pay for some similar ones in-store or online. And they give you a few different lids with your bottle, so you don’t have to pay extra to get the one that works right for you.

Our Favorite Online Deals Right Now – September 2020

September 10, 2020 by LifeBalance

You may have noticed that we’ve been adding all kinds of online savings to the LifeBalance Program! We’re excited to have more options that all members can take advantage of!

Les Mills On Demand – Missing some of those 24 Hour Fitness workout classes? Longing for a new home fitness routine? Either way, you might love the 15% off of dues from Les Mills On Demand! I loved their BodyCombat and BodyPump classes, and from yoga to cardio to dance classes, you’ll enjoy a variety of options with their On Demand membership. 

OFit – Thinking of upping your home gym game? Check out treadmills, bikes, benches, pull up bars, and more from OFitsports. Save 10%.

SunPower – We’re all about lowering our bills AND living sustainably. With their highly efficient solar panels, SunPower lets you do both — all while offering a $1,000 rebate!

Honest Company – I know lots of folks love this brand for baby care products, so I’m excited that we have a 20% discount! I didn’t know they had such a wide variety of products for adults, too. I also dig their commitment to social responsibility. Already ordered a few products to try myself!

Acer – Great news on the tech front: We’ve now got 10% savings on Acer laptops, monitors, keyboards, projectors, and other electronics!

Logitech – Don’t have a Logitech wireless mouse yet? Trust us; you’re gonna love it. Save 25% on mice, keyboards, and other great tech-cessories with Logitech.

The Halloween Spot – They’re creepy and they’re cooky! We got a giggle out of some of the getups you can find at The Halloween Spot! Plus, some of the kids/toddler costumes are pretty gosh darn cute. If you’re gonna pass on hitting the Halloween Superstores this year, check out 20% savings with The Halloween Spot.

illy – We’re thrilled that the iconic Italian coffee brand is now offering our members 15% off! Save on drip coffee, espresso, and even home coffee and espresso machines.

Ginsu: Need some legit kitchen knives? Premium Japanese steak knives that are renowned for quality, low maintenance, AND affordable? That’s a tough combo to beat, especially with 10% off.

Kemper Snowboards – Once one of the top early snowboard brands, Kemper has been brought back after a long hiatus! It might feel a little early to think about snow, but not with 25% off, this might be your chance to grab a high-quality snowboard at an amazing price.

Raddish – Help kids develop an important life skill – cooking — with a subscription from Raddish! Each month, you’ll get new recipes to try and culinary lessons to impart. They also get aprons, select kitchen tools, and grocery lists to go with it. And they have to clean the kitchen after (or so you should tell them). Save $17 on a 6-month subscription.

Buckle-Down – From Disney to DC Comics, Harry Potter to High School Musical, Buckle Down makes all kinds of super fun, themed accessories. Shop belts, dog collars and leashes, wallets, bandanas, and much, much more. Save 10%.

Our Favorite Online Deals Right Now – August 2020

August 5, 2020 by LifeBalance

You may have noticed that we’ve been adding all kinds of online savings to the LifeBalance Program! We’re excited to have more options that all members can take advantage of! Our Marketing & Communications Director Nicole highlights some of the deals that our staff, and members, have been most excited about.

Chewy – If you haven’t ordered your meds or pet supplies from Chewy before, it’s worth giving them a try! Their products (especially meds) always seem a little more affordable, and I swear they show up on my door before I’ve even plugged in my credit card info. (Ok not literally, but it’s always speedy delivery.) Save $15 on your first order of $49 or more.

Grammarly – Help the kids get through their essays and papers, or improve your own written communication, with Grammarly. I love that Grammarly doesn’t just point out little typos, but provides thoughtful suggestions for clarity, confidence, brevity, and tone. It’s like having your own personal writing teacher. Save 20% on any plan.

Discount School Supply – Whatever your school year is going to look like, Discount School Supply seems to have you covered. From the usual pens and glue sticks to home desk set-ups and curriculum resources, they’re stocked with supplies for all ages. We especially like their “budget bundles”, STEM curriculum tools, and emotional intelligence products. Save $15-$20 on purchases over $100.

Quiksilver – Quiksilver has some great sales on men’s apparel at the moment. No one is about to accuse me of being hip, but I feel like kids these days might like some of the hats, backpacks, and shirts on sale right now. Also if you’re looking ahead to snow season, the prices for snow jackets and pants seem pretty reasonable. Save 30% on three or more sale items.

Reebok – Act quickly; now through August 28, Reebok is offering a whopping 40% off sitewide, PLUS an extra 10% on kid’s shoes. That’s just tough to beat.

DC Shoes – Like Quiksilver, this iconic skating brand is offering us 30% on at least three sale items. Your skater kids will be, like, totally stoked about their sick new gear, homie.

Casper – People rave about their comfy Casper mattresses, and about the company’s try-it-free policy. Basically, Casper ships a mattress to you in a remarkably manageable box, and you get to take it out and watch it expand like those little grow toys you’d put in water as a kid. Then you get to sleep on it for 100 nights, and if you aren’t happy, you can just have them come take it away — and somehow that’s all free. Save up to $200.

CrazyCap – I love the CrazyCap concept — their UV-sterilizing bottle cap can give you clean water from darn near any source. I was skeptical, but I confirmed with their customer service team that CrazyCap’s “Crazy mode” UV setting will kill parasites like Giardia. (They even sent me a link to a study proving it, which I’ll pretend to understand.) A great option for your outdoor adventures, or for your emergency preparedness kit. Save 10%.

BodyRock – BodyRock has both a great variety of guided home workouts AND home workout gear. Their prices are affordable, especially with our 10% discount. Call me a product of the 80s, but I still appreciate a good pair of ankle weights, which I’ll be ordering with our 10% discount.

Runderwear –  If you’re guessing this made the list because of the brand name, you’re mostly right. (Our coworker, Heather, said “I keep reading this name and hearing Scooby Doo”, so now I can’t un-hear it.) BUT if you’re a runner or walker, you know that having the right rundergarments is no laughing matter. Runderwear’s chafe-free guarantee applies to their underwear, sports bras (which, by the way, look incredibly supportive), shorts, socks, and accessories. Save 15%.

Our Favorite Online Deals Right Now – July 2020

July 1, 2020 by LifeBalance Staff

You may have noticed that we’ve been adding all kinds of online savings to the LifeBalance Program! We’re excited to have more options that all members can take advantage of! Our Marketing & Communications Director Nicole highlights some of the deals that our staff, and members, have been most excited about.

Turnkey Vacation Rentals – If you’re wanting to get away but hoping to limit contact, Turnkey Vacation Rentals offers a great solution. You can  make your own meals, enjoy lots of space, and take advantage of the extra amenities — from board games to bikes to Jacuzzis — that so many vacation homes provide. Save 10% on midweek or 7-day-plus stays.

Priceline – We’re so excited that Priceline is now in our discount network! We’ve all turned to them before for cheap hotel stays in the past, and now they’re even more affordable because of our new exclusive savings. Whether or not you’re up for staying in a hotel yet, this is one to keep in mind for future travels!

Face Masks Now A good mask is hard to find, but not only does Face Masks Now have ‘em, they also have “Masks for Good” — masks with positive messages printed on them, and a $5 charitable donation made when you buy them. Plus they have youth sizes (no promise the kids will keep them on, but at least they’ll fit). Save 10%.

Quicken Loans – Rates are so low right now! For many homeowners, it makes sense to refinance, and for prospective buyers, it’s a great time if you’re shooting to secure low interest rates. If you’ve been thinking of refinancing or buying, it’s tough to beat Quicken’s $1000 closing cost credit and $500 cashback.

Sunglass Warehouse – Maybe it’s because we listened to a lot of ZZ Top growing up. Maybe it’s because I don’t like to baby a pair of shades like they’re fine china. Either way, I long ago vowed to never pay for a pair of designer sunglasses. That’s why this deal speaks to my aviator-loving soul. Sunglass Warehouse’s prices are affordable, and we get 15% off.

Body Glove – Just in time for the summer heat, we’ve got 15% off from Body Glove! I’ve got a pair of their water shoes that have held up for years, and I was excited to see they offer everything from swim wear to life vests to inflatable kayaks and paddle boards. Cool off with 15% savings.

Sun Jack  – Getting away from it all? Sun Jack’s solar power banks and flashlights are portable and rugged enough to go with you anywhere. Great for outdoor adventures AND your emergency preparedness kit. Save 10%.

Merrell – From comfy sandals to sturdy hikers to non-slips for work, Merrell has a wide selection of great footwear. They’ve also got a good selection of apparel for the great outdoors or when you’re simply out and about. Save 15%.

International Open Academy  –  Wanna learn how to train your dog? How to write code? How to garden? International Open Academy has all kinds of online courses on everything from business to cooking to mastering your golf game, and most of them are $19 with our new discount. 

Lumen Metabolism Tracker – We haven’t tried this one ourselves, but we’re all intrigued! Lumen provides a small, hand-help metabolism tracker and an app. SImply blow into the tracker and it can not only help you understand how you’re metabolising, but also provide nutrition suggestions. Members save 25%.

Our Favorite Online Deals Right Now – June 2020

June 2, 2020 by LifeBalance

You may have noticed that we’ve been adding all kinds of online savings to the LifeBalance Program! We’re excited to have more options that all members can take advantage of! Our Marketing & Communications Director Nicole highlights some of the deals that our staff, and members, have been most excited about.

Baleaf Sports – I’m a lifelong athlete with a firm motto: Do not overpay for workout gear. I discovered Baleaf’s products about a year ago, and they’ve proven to be as affordable, comfortable, and durable as anything I’ve ever gotten from a more widely-recognizable brand. Ditch the $80 leggings and $50 shorts, and give these a try for your summer walks, runs, and workouts. Save 20%.

Stanley – Stanley was doing vacuum-insulated steel beverage and food containers long before it was cool. We love their wide variety of cups, mugs, and cookware – especially their camping crock pot, french press, and the epic stein pictured below (which, by the way, would make a great Father’s Day gift).

39DollarGlasses – Our colleague, Erin, bought a pair of glasses from 39DollarGlasses and had a great experience. “The whole process was pretty cool,” she told us. “You can try them on and do a fitting virtually.” Plus you can’t beat the prices. Members save 15%. 

Z Grills – If you’ve always wanted a wood pellet smoker, but just can’t justify the prices, now might be the time. Act fast before these offers are gone! Z Grills has made grills for other bigger-name brands for years, and decided to finally sell under their own brand — at great prices. From mouthwatering meats to perfect pizzas to the best roasted veggies you’ve ever had, you’ll be amazed at how a pellet smoker/grill can change your culinary game!

Dyper – Eco-friendly diapers delivered to your door? Almost sounds too good to be true, but it’s not with Dyper’s new monthly diaper subscription (with free shipping). Better for you, better for baby, and better for the planet. Save 30%, but act quickly! Offer expires June 19.

Putterball – Need some new entertainment? Putterball looks like a fun way to liven up your backyard! The putterball set is portable, so you can pack it with you when heading out for your summer adventures. Save 10%.

Yoga Download  – At home workouts are our jam right now, and Yoga Download has that and more! You can access hundreds of fitness AND mindfulness sessions. From meditations to cardio sessions to classes designed to tone specific areas of the body, Yoga Download has something for everyone. With our discount, it’s just $60 for an entire year.

THiNK OUTSiDE BOXES  –  THiNK OUTSiDE BOXES is a Parent’s Choice Award winner, and we can see why! The monthly subscription program encourages exploration, physical activity, and learning about the natural world. With different monthly themes like stargazing, shelter building, weather, and more, THiNK OUTSiDE’s boxes will help keep kids learning and give them reasons to embrace the outdoors this summer.

Cardboard Cutout Standees – “Because my parents can’t see their grandchildren right now, my sister and I are using this to send them cardboard cutouts of each of the grandkids,” our colleague Erin noted. We love the idea of sending these to loved ones — if nothing else for a laugh at a time when we could all use one.

MyMedic – You can never be too prepared. From pandemic kits including masks and gloves for your home or car, to first aid kids for your camping, boating, hunting, or hiking trips, MyMedic provides compact, portable first aid kits for any situation. They also offer a variety of a la carte supplies like lifestraws, splint kits, and more. Save 15%.
