New Music
The Grammy Awards will celebrate some of the world's top music acts this weekend. But don't forget, you can do the same every day of the week.
For starters, you'll want a nice digital music player to fill with your favorite songs. BestBuy.com is the place to shop for the latest iPod models and more. Check out the Featured Deals for free headphones, gift cards, discounted speakers and other offers. The 1% ConsumerClub.com discount you can earn here will be music to your ears.
Not a day goes by that I don't open up iTunes for music, video clips, etc. I love stocking up on new sounds and creating my own play lists one song at a time. Download the program at iTunes.com. Then start enjoying a 3% ConsumerClub.com discount that will add up fast as your digital music collection grows.
Stickin' to your CDs? Buy more of them at low prices from TowerRecords.com. Check out the list of "Top 100 Best Sellers." Or search by genre, new releases, deals of the moment and other criteria. No matter how you search, you'll find awesome deals and a 2% ConsumerClub.com rebate to boot.

Treat your feet.
Missing flip-flop season? Your feet probably are too. All that walking in warm socks and winter shoes has probably earned yours a reward. How about an at-home pedicure? A simple soak? Or a new scrub and lotion? A little bit of pampering can go a long way.
H20plus.com has the Softening Mint Rub, Retexturizing Seaweed Therapy, the Pedi-Perfector, the three-step Feet Treats (now on sale) and even special Moisture Therapy Socks that seal in moisture overnight. Shopping here can be good for your soles and your pocketbook. You'll earn a 4% ConsumerClub.com rebate as you go.
Norstrom.com can pamper your feet just as well as it can the rest of you. Luxuriant lotions found here include L'Occitane Exfoliating Foot Care, Lippman Collection "Get Off" Callus Softener, Bliss (my favorite body brand) Foot Patrol and AHAVA Mineral Foot Cream. You'll also find Lippman Collection "Footloose" Loofah Insoles to exfoliate your soles as you walk around the house. And you'll earn a 3% ConsumerClub.com rebate as you shop.

Movie Night
Between the recent Golden Globes, the current Sundance Film Festival and the upcoming Academy Awards, one could definitely be inspired to start a film-watching frenzy. Whether you're preparing for a night of heartening documentaries (my recommendation) or exhilarating action flicks, you'll want to get all the movies you can for a great price.
BarnesandNoble.com has an incredible After-Holiday Sale going. Among other incredible offers, it allows you to buy two DVDs or Blu-Ray discs and get the 3rd one free. Shop a selection of 35,000 titles online. You'll earn a 3% ConsumerClub.com rebate as you go.
You'll always find great movies at low prices on Target.com, in addition to any new electronics and other treats you may need to make movie night just right. Add (or subtract) your 4% ConsumerClub.com rebate and you can easily stay in line with your New Year's resolutions on saving.
I like to keep the DVDs coming - and watch unlimited movies streaming on my laptop - so I subscribe to Netflix.com for an incredibly low price each month. There are more than 100,000 titles to choose from, and more are added all the time. As a bonus you'll earn a $5 ConsumerClub.com rebate just for joining.

Set the Table
I've been looking at the same forks, spoons and knives for 15 years. And while I know flatware can last for generations, mine simply doesn't fit my style anymore. So I've sought out some possible replacements that you might like too.
I started with Crate and Barrel's funky, affordable CB2.com, where I discovered the beautiful Pattern 123 flatware. Four dishwasher-safe 5-piece place settings were just $59.95. Not bad for pieces that look like they belong in the Museum of Modern Art.
Target.com didn't disappoint either. Maybe that's why it's one of my favorite stores. Hard to believe you can get the simple, modern 78-piece stainless steel Catalina flatware set for just $59.99. And that's not even factoring in the 4% ConsumerClub.com rebate you can earn here.

Food for Thought
Here's a New Year's resolution that might have gotten lost in the shuffle to lose holiday pounds: Exercising your mind. Start the year with your head in the right place by investing in a few good books (the self-help variety counts too).
Save money and time by shopping BN.com. Browse books that open your eyes to history, teach you new skills, take you away to imaginary lands or just make it easier to fall asleep at night. You won't need a book on saving while you shop. All your purchases here will earn you a 3% ConsumerClub.com rebate.
Keep the fun coming all year long with BooksOnline.com. Here you can join the Book-of-the-Month Club for grownups or kids and get best-sellers at incredibly low prices, along with free shipping. There's a $5 ConsumerClub.com rebate waiting for you here too.
Treat your children to a year of educational reading material, fun games, brain teasers and more with a subscription to Highlights magazine or one of the many Highlights Book Clubs For Kids available on Highlights.com. The clubs focus on math, geography, adventure stories, puzzles and more. And you'll earn a 5% ConsumerClub.com rebate while also earning a little extra thanks from your favorite kids.

On a Platter
New Year's Eve parties are a great time to bring out your best serving platters. They're also a great excuse to invest in new ones. I've found more than I could choose from this year in all shapes and sizes.
Cooking.com is serving up platters too beautiful to miss. Nambe's are stunning in silver. Nigella Lawson's nest nicely. See for yourself what style suits your own. It's waiting for you on Cooking.com, where you'll earn a 3% ConsumerClub.com rebate as you shop.
Wrapables.com surprised me with a charming array of serving dishes. I fancy the beautiful ceramic Bird Nest platter. But the Artist Palette and Clover Glass platters caught my eye as well. And we can't forget the 5% ConsumerClub.com rebate this site offers.
SurLaTable.com has a stunning selection of serving dishes. Not that we would expect anything less. I'm loving the Rustic Olive Relief and the Antiqued Green Italian Ceramic platters. The Wood Serving Plates are gorgeous too. And I also appreciate the 4% ConsumerClub.com rebate I earn on all my purchases here.
Now, what's on the menu?

Shuffling around the house is so much more comfortable when your feet aren't freezing. And socks can rarely keep you warm like a comfy pair of slippers. There are so many to choose from:
