Eligible travel runs through May 22, and the discount is only valid for passengers traveling together on the same itinerary. You must use promo code “FLYFREE” in order to get the BOGO deal.

📦 Spring Sales Happening This Week Only

I wanted to do a quick roundup of all the special spring sales that are happening this week only. Since these random sales don’t often offer anything extraordinary, I won’t be making a dedicated video, but, I still wanted provide a helpful roundup as an exclusive for my newsletter subscribers!

🚨 NEW Shopping Info You NEED To Know!

⛽️ Costco just made filling up a little easier: Costco has extended its gas station hours at many locations across the U.S.

Most are now opening as early as 6 a.m. and staying open as late as 10 p.m. on weekdays. Weekend hours vary slightly, with most closing by 8:30 p.m. on Saturdays and 7:30 p.m. on Sundays.

📦 Amazon returns at Kohl’s? Not a guarantee anymore: Kohl’s is scaling back its Amazon returns program in select stores, confirming it's “no longer available in a small number of locations.”

The company says it’s still committed to the partnership, but it’s clear the days of universal drop-offs may be numbered.

🛒 Old Navy steps up for special occasions. Old Navy has quietly introduced "The Occasion" a new line of affordable dresses designated weddings, parties, and proms.

With prices starting around $25, this collection aims to fill the gap between casual wear and formal attire.

🥤 How to Score DQ Blizzards UNDER $1

Craving a Blizzard? You’ll be able to grab one for just 85 cents.

Dairy Queen is celebrating its 85th birthday by bringing back its fan-favorite Blizzard deal, but only for a limited time. From March 28 through April 14, you can score a small Blizzard for 85 cents when you order through the DQ app.

The offer is limited to one per person and only applies to app orders, so you’ll need to download the app and create an account if you haven’t already.

👉 The promo goes live March 28, so mark your calendar (and maybe clear some freezer space).
