Bissell 1200B SpotBot Carpet Cleaner
$124.88 before $25 coupon, at Amazon.com
(click the image or link above to go to Amazon’s product page)

Amazon again has a great price on the Bissell 1200B SpotBot Hands-Free Compact Deep Cleaner Carpet Cleaner. At $99.88 after a $25 coupon, it’s the lowest price you’ll find online. There’s one catch, though — the $25 coupon is only for purchases of at least $125. That means you’ll have to add an additional item from the kitchen & housewares or bed & bath section at Amazon to bring the total over $125.

By the way, you’ll also get Free Shipping on this order and for most states there is no sales tax, so that makes the deal even better.

The coupon code is CLEAROUT and you enter it during the checkout process to get $25 off $125. You can find more details on the coupon here (link opens in new window).

If you need some suggestions for items to bring your total over $125, here are some ideas:
Bissell Grab ‘n Go Cleaner - $9.99
Bissell Little Green Formula 3-pack - $13.99
more Kitchen & Housewares bestsellers under $25

Jan 16 update: It looks like the price dropped by $10 today… so the information below has been updated accordingly.

Cuisinart MCP-12 Multiclad Pro Stainless-Steel 12-Piece Cookware Set - $228.88 before $25 coupon at Amazon.com
(see coupon details below)

One of the great things about Amazon.com is that it allows consumers like us to add comments about the products that are listed on the site. So we can get a relatively non-biased opinion of whether a product is worthwhile.

If you look at the reviews for the Cuisinart MCP-12 Multiclad Pro Stainless-Steel 12-Piece Cookware Set, they’re so good that you might be convinced to replace your current set of cookware even if there’s nothing wrong with them. Most of the reviews mention that they looked at other brands like All-Clad and Calphalon before choosing Cuisinart, and they’ve been very happy with their purchase. Even one of the reviews for a Calphalon set (see link at the bottom) says: “if you want a great set that cooks great, looks great and will last a very long time, get the Cuisinart Multiclad”.

And at its current price of $203.88 after a $25 coupon, the Cuisinart set certainly is tempting. Amazon is also offering Free Shipping on this item, and there’s no tax for most states. Also, if you purchase $150 or more in Cuisinart products from Amazon, you can also send in the rebate offer to get a free Mini Mate chopper ($50 value). That sweetens the deal even more!

To get this cookware set for $203.88, click on the image above to go to Amazon.com and then add the item to your cart. During the checkout process, apply the promo code CLEAROUT to get a $25 discount. The final price should be $213.88.

If you’re interested in comparing to Calphalon and All-Clad, here are the links for their cookware sets at Amazon:

Calphalon Tri-Ply Stainless-Steel 13-Piece Cookware Set - $399.95

All-Clad Stainless 9-Piece Cookware Set - $539.95

Sporting a sleek, contemporary design, this electric grill features 84 square inches of cooking surface and endless cooking options. Five removable grill plates allow for making waffles, cooking Paninis, and grilling veggies, along with baking and griddle cooking. The appliance’s appeal lies in its simplicity and countertop convenience–not to mention its fat-fighting ability. Exclusive George Tough triple-coated, scratch-resistant, nonstick coating protects each grill plate, providing the option for low-fat cooking and ensuring easy food release. The unit’s generous handles stay cool to the touch, and the grilling plates are dishwasher-safe for quick cleanup. The grill measures 17-1/2 by 12-1/4 by 6-1/2 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
