Frugal Family Deals: Office Supplies, Food, and Fitness

With these sales, supplies are running out fast.

Check out all deals we have this week for our frugal families. Every Wednesday, we set you on the path towards savings. And, don't forget to share your deals and steals in the comments.

1.

Deal: Ten percent off everything you can hold or carry out of the Fairfax store. Papers, pens, supplies, everything a small business needs in this crazy mixed-up world. Sorry, services like faxing and copying not included, but don’t miss out on this fantastic opportunity to get all your supplies in a one-stop shop.

Deal: “No Excuses” initiation fee is only $33. And, really, with a price like that, (normally it is $100) you have no excuses. So, head on down and take care of that New Year's resolution before bathing suit season begins.

Good Through: No expiration date, but you do have to sign up for a year ($45 a month) with automatic fund withdrawal.

3.

Deal: Feeling lucky? Have an extra rabbit’s foot you need to put to good use? Rubbed the Buddha’s belly lately? If the stars are aligned you should enter the Fairfax Cyclery’s raffle to win a $5,000 bicycle. For only $10, the bike of your dreams could be just a ticket away!

Good Through: When 500 tickets are sold and the winning stub is drawn.

4. 

Deal: Is the thought of roasting a chicken overwhelming? Try something a little different, like Cornish Game Hen for only $3.98 per pound, the drumsticks are adorable! Steam up fresh green beans for 98 cents per pound, and toss a salad with Earth Bound lettuce for $2.98 for a five-ounce package and dinner is served. Dice up a yummy fruit salad with 88-cent mangos and $1.98 for 16 ounces of strawberries; all sipped down with Tejava tea for $1.28 a bottle. And a wonderful and healthy meal can be had for about $25 dollars.

5. Patrick & Co.

Deal: Does your back ache while sitting at your desk? Looking for some wheels? Check out the incredible sale on an incredible office chair that is normally $438 for only $188! It’s a deal you shouldn’t pass up to ensure that you are sitting at the top of your game for all your office tasks. And, while you’re there, check out the table of Crane paper goods all marked down to phenomenal prices. Stock up now for “Thank You’s” later.

Good Through: While supplies last!
