Earth Day Deals

With Earth Day approaching, there are lots of deals out there.
Here are some of my favorites:

Starbucks - bring in a reuseable mug and get a free tea or coffee on April 22.

Caribou Coffee - bring in your mug and get a free coffee of the day on April 22.  Get $.50 off every other day when you bring in your own mug.

Evos - is offering a free organic milkshake on April 22.

Kudos to Evos for their environment-friendly policies.  Evos offsets their energy usage with renewable wind energy, prints on recycled paper with vegetable-based inks (vs. petroleum inks), and uses biodegradable plastic bags among other earth-loving practices.

Disney is offering a reusable shopping bag when you bring in 5 plastic bags for recycling on April 22.
Isn't that bag cute?

Lowes is giving away 1 million trees on April 23.  Trees reduce toxins in the air, making our world healthier for all.  Can't use a tree yourself?  Donate it to a local park or neighbor.

The Sierra Club is giving away a trip for 2 to Vieques Island to one lucky winner.  To enter, take their pledge to do one small thing for our earth (and feel free to do many more).  

The National Parks are FREE April 16 - April 24.  Get out, enjoy our earth, and do something healthy for yourself.  Bonus points if you can bike to your park.

Happy Earth Day everyone!  If you hear of other great deals, feel free to let me know.

Free Pete Yorn Song!


So, hottie Pete Yorn is offering 'Life on a Chain' FREE on amazon.com here.  This song started Yorn's career in 2001, and is being re-releasing in celebration.  I already own the cd (because it rocks), and am thrilled to let everyone know about this deal.  If you haven't heard 'Life on a Chain,' you are in for a treat.  If you have heard it, you know that the song is a "must have" for your collection.  Sexy, soulful, and a rock delight!
