We here at The Coupon Project recognize how overwhelming it can be to navigate Amazon for the holidays. With so many deals happening all at once, it can be easy to miss the very best ones. Over the years, I’ve tinkered with the best way to communicate Amazon deals with you, particularly as a deal blogger that focuses on quality over quantity.

A few years ago, I arrived at a solution: a simple collection of our favorite deals on Amazon, updated daily. Think of it like an “editors’ picks” list. This worked so well for the past couple years that we’ve decided to continue it for the 2018 shopping season. Here’s what you can expect:

Updated daily. We’ll target having the post updated each morning through Christmas Eve. Starting today!
Deals can come from any category. Toys, kitchen, sporting goods, housewares, apparel.
We’re not going to worry about hitting an arbitrary number of deals per day. Some days it may be 5, others 20. We’re more concerned with sharing deals that are truly that – deals.
We’ll focus on all-time price lows and popular items for the 2018 holiday season. We’ll also make sure to share why each item tops our list.

One last caveat. I need to remind you and emphasize that pricing and availability on Amazon can change at any time. We see an uptick of moving prices during this time of year, too. So even though we are honestly sharing prices we are finding on the deals below, you might find a different price by the time you click through. Our advice is to not wait if the price is right.

Simmons Whitetail Classic Trail & Game Camera: $29.99 (reg. $49.99) – 12/13 only
Why we like this deal: This is the lowest price that this trail & game camera has ever been. This would make a fun gift for an older child or maybe a family.

Why we like this deal: Get your favorite college on a cute water bottle!

Amazon has done it again! They’ve released another $5 off $20 book promotion! Just use coupon code GIFTBOOK18 at checkout. I was so happy to find this available today because I still have lots of shopping to do and my son had asked for violin music. Perfect timing. This code is good through December 21st 11:59pm PST.

Run Fast. Cook Fast. Eat Slow. $16.50 (Hardcover)

Becoming: $18.38 (Hardcover)
This popular book is now a bestseller and has a 5 star average rating after 1,100 reviews! In fact, Amazon Charts has it listed as THE #1 most read book right now!

Best Prices on Ham at Grocery Stores

Many people enjoy a festive ham for Easter! If you’re in the same boat, you might be interested in the best prices currently available. Around Thanksgiving, I offer a popular best turkey prices roundup, so this spring I decided to bring back a roundup for the best ham prices at Puget Sound area grocery stores.

Remember when comparing ham prices, that there are different cuts of ham. To make this easier for you, I’ve organized my post by ham type as opposed to store.

We typically see the best ham prices during Easter and Christmas. Here’s a little context of the best prices we’ve seen in recent years:

2016 Christmas Season: $1.47/lb
2017 Easter Season: $1.37/lb
2017 Christmas Season: $1.27/lb

It’s absolutely worth mentioning that many grocery stores will have a surplus of hams that they will mark down immediately following Christmas. I’ve found spiral sliced hams for as low as $0.99/lb. If you don’t mind having ham for New Year’s or later, then make sure to check out your store in the days following Christmas!

My Favorite Ham Deal this Week

This is my favorite ham deal at the moment! It’s the advertised price good through 12/18 at Fred Meyer stores and it matches the lowest price I found for 2017. I don’t see a stated limit you can buy in the ad, but be prepared: it’s possible there’s a limit of 1 or 2 when you get to the store.

Spiral Sliced Ham Prices

Fred Meyer: $1.27/lb Kroger Spiral Ham, Bone-in (brown sugar or honey) – through 12/18
Fred Meyer: $4.99/lb FG Meyer Flame Crafted Spiral Ham – through 12/18
QFC: $1.49/lb Hormel 81 Cure Spiral Ham, Bone-in (limit 2) – through 12/18
Costco: I will check this in the next day or so. Last year, readers reported $2.59/lb for Kirkland Signature Mastercarve Half Ham and another for $1.99/lb for Kirkland Spiral Sliced Half Ham
Trader Joe’s: Maple Bourbon Flavored Glazed Uncured Ham $5.99/lb
Safeway/Albertsons: have not advertised ham yet (I’m honestly a bit surprised)
Tacoma Boys: prices not listed, but they are taking orders – see website for contact information
HoneyBaked Ham: you can also purchase a HoneyBaked Ham. They are not cheap, but they are delicious. See the Tacoma store for information on ordering.

Macy’s: Martha Stewart Dutch Oven just $39.99 after rebate (reg. $179.99)!

12/13/18

Disclosure: the post below may contain affiliate links. When you make a purchase or take action using these links, the site makes commission. For more information, please see my Disclosure Policy.

For a limited time only, Macy’s offers this beautiful Martha Stewart Enameled Cast Iron 6 Quart Dutch Oven for just $59.99 – 66% off the regular retail price of $179.99. It comes 6 punchy colors and is very well rated – well over 4.5 starts after nearly 800 customer reviews! This Dutch Oven is perfect for casseroles, soups, stews, and browning and braising meat.

But here’s how it gets better: you can submit for a $20 mail-in rebate if you make the online purchase by December 17th. You can do this deal up to two times for the Dutch oven (there are additional rebate products available).

Check out what some of the reviewers had to say about this Dutch Oven:

We loved this Dutch oven so much that we bought 3 more for gifts. Been using mine for 4 years and still looks great.

I purchased the 6qt. round Dutch Oven because I always wanted something like this to go from stove top to oven. I made a chuck roast with vegetables and it was delicious. I was able to brown my vegetables and meat on the stove top and then put the lid on and stick it in the oven. It also took less time too cook also. The clean up was so easy, I put warm water in and sprayed the side of the pan and the stuff just rinsed off. I am so glad I purchased these pots

I have been shopping for enameled Dutch ovens for some time and considered Le Creuset, but the cost deterred me. Then I discovered the Martha Stewart collection and purchased my first one, indigo blue, on sale. I have used it for everything and it cooks extremely well from soups, bread and roasted chicken! I could not believe how easy it was to clean…I used a soft cloth with soap and water and it has been consistently effortless! I have just purchased my third one in this collection. They look beautiful. I would highly recommend this product and am so happy that I discovered this collection. I would give this product more stars if possible.

Shipping is free with your order of $25 or more at Macy’s right now, so this purchase would qualify!

The Best ClickList Coupon Offers

12/12/18

Disclosure: the post below may contain affiliate links. When you make a purchase or take action using these links, the site makes commission. For more information, please see my Disclosure Policy.

I’ve been a huge fan of Kroger’s ClickList service for awhile now, for so many reasons. It saves time because you don’t have to go into the store to shop for your groceries and check out. It’s convenient because you can shop from home, as you build your menu list for the week and see what you need from your pantry. I’ve found it also saves money because it absolutely eliminates impulse purchases (this also encourages more healthful, mindful shopping and spending).

Over the past year, I’ve noticed a definite uptick of exclusive ClickList offers. It felt right to me to start a feature that highlights these, because I’m not sure that one exists elsewhere. To be clear, these offers are exclusive for ClickList, meaning there is no other way you can access them! So in February 2018, I launched this post which captures all the best ClickList offers, deals, and highlights in one place. In general, I update it once or twice a month to keep with current offers.

Last updated: December 12th, 2018

Getting Started with ClickList

If you are completely new to ClickList, wait! You should read my post on how to get started with ClickList first, just so you understand the nuts and bolts. After that, you might want to read my post of FAQs I get about ClickList (can I use coupons? but do they give you good produce?).

When you’re ready to give it a try (and I do hope you will!), just head on over to ClickList to see if there’s a participating Kroger store near you. In my neck of the woods, there is a Fred Meyer store. But you might have it at your Kroger, QFC, King Soopers, or other Kroger-chain store.

You might also find it helpful to read a post I wrote called How to Place a ClickList Order (from start to finish.) If you like step-by-step help, make sure to check out that post!
