This is a great deal for those wanting a more professional software option to keep up with their blogging business income. Oh, yes, blogging income is taxable income.

My thoughts on Peachtree

Honestly, I’m a Quickbooks person, but to me Peachtree and Quickbooks are similar enough that I would have no problem using either. Then again, my main experience with accounting software is organization specific and not off-the-shelf.

That said…

Peachtree helps you set up your chart of accounts, keep track of income received, expenses paid, then generate reports based on what you need to know. This makes life so much simpler come tax time.

Here’s the deal

1. Staples has Peachtree Pro Accounting 2011 on sale for $165
2. Purchase between 8/1 – 8/7 and get $165 back via mail-in rebate (limit 1 per household)
3. Mail in your receipt, proof of purchase and rebate form by 9/7/10.

Make this an even sweeter deal

As always, I recommend shopping through a site that pays you back whenever you choose to shop online. Big Crumbs (.8%),Cashbaq (0%), Ebates (2%),  Mr. Rebates (3%), & ShopAtHome (3%) are all highly recommended. Each one varies slightly ~ Big Crumbs has no limit on payment but some of the other sites offer sign on bonuses.

Save for college with UPromise (1%).

Additionally, be sure to look for more coupon codes at Retailmenot.com.

❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀
Disclosure statement: Affiliate links used for Big Crumbs, Cashbaq, Ebates, Mr. Rebates & ShopAtHome.  If you sign up through one of my links I benefit according to the affiliate terms of each site.

Not a lot gets me excited. Okay, that’s a lie. I get excited about way too much crap, but seeing this offer in my inbox made me a little giddy. I know, I know ~ DORK! With three teenagers you can imagine how they go through those cheap crappy binders that go on sale in the summer right before school begins. So, to be able to get good quality heavy duty binders for them for FREE, well, that is cause for posting!

Starting January 3 through January 9 you can buy [up to 4] Avery Heavy Duty View Binders [my ad says it includes ANY, meaning any size?] and get back 100% of the cost in Staples Rewards.

I know, you’re saying that’s not really ‘free’. Yes, you do have to have a Staples Rewards Card [ask your cashier for one if you don't have one] and you have to wait to get your reward, but you can spend your reward on a future purchase.

Let me explain

Last summer I bought Amanda a new book bag for school from Staples. The full purchase price was credited to me in the form of a Staples Rewards check and sent to me in early November. This check also included a percentage of ink and paper purchases for the previous quarter. I then learned about the free Duracell battery offer. I could have really stocked up here, but was quite lazy and only did this deal once. I’m not complaining. I took my rewards check and bought two packs of 20 batteries and a travel mug/warmer. All of this cost me a little over $8. I used one of my many [free] Visa gift cards therefore paying nothing out of pocket.

Lots of $1 Deals, Too

Pens, pencils, scissors, paper, and more. Yep, just one dollar each. Many of these items are $1 at the register, but a few are after Easy Rebate. Don’t let that stop you. When Staples says easy, they mean easy. Enter your information and track your progress online. The entire process takes up to 8 weeks to allow time for returns.

This is a great way to stock up on school or office supplies without a lot of cost out of pocket. The also have good copy and photo paper through this deal. See, and you thought it was too expensive to print your digital photos from home. To see more, just check out the ad.

On August 15th I posted about a $10 off $50 Staples coupon that is good through September 12th, giving you plenty of time to wait for a good deal to come along. I finally found one, sort of.

• Purchase 1 Sharp EL-525BBL calculator $6.99 ($6.99 ESR, limit 1)
• Purchase 1 Peachtree Pro Accounting 2010 $165.00 ($165.00 ESR, limit 1)
• Use $10 off $50 coupon
• $161.99 OOP (plus tax)
• Earn $171.99 ESR (takes 4 – 6 weeks to receive checks)

That is a lot to put out up front, so I would recommend only do this if you need it or can sell it.  If I ran my own bookkeeping or accounting business I would definitely work this deal.
