Free Hallmark card + postage.
Hallmark is really pushing their new paper card service, where you can create and customize a paper card online, then pay them to mail it for you. You can try it for free by using promo code APRILCARD at checkout. Just create your card and choose "I Want Hallmark to Mail My Card For Me." Get your Mother's Day duties out of the way early!
I tried to make an Easter card the last time they offered a promotion like this, and first it censored my swear words out of the card, and then it apparently never sent the thing. So I'm not sure if this offer actually works, but I'll try it again and let you know. If you try it and the card actually arrives, leave a note in the comments!

Free museum days sponsored by Target.
Not to be outdone by B of A's free museum days, Target says YES HUH THEY CAN DO THAT TOO IN FACT THEY TOTALLY THOUGHT OF IT FIRST. However, theirs isn't clustered around a particular weekend of the month, but spread out on different dates, which makes it a little more complicated to remember.
There are quite a few offerings in California and Chicago, but just one for Seattleites: free First Saturdays at the Asian Art Museum. The SAAM also offers free First Thursdays for everyone and free First Fridays for old people, so there's really no reason you should ever have to pay for admission if you plan carefully.

2009 Entertainment Books are now $15!
I don't need to tell you AGAIN what a great deal the Entertainment Book is, right? First of all, it has hundreds and hundreds of coupons in there for restaurants, museums, attractions, movie tickets, and so on, so you can't tell me there's nothing in there for you.
Second, now that it's on sale for $15 with free shipping, it'll pay for itself in no time! One example: use the BOGO coupon for admission to Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo, where tickets are $16.50 per adult. In one fell swoop, you've made your money back, so you can kick back and leisurely peruse the book for all the other great savings. (I also like the discount movie ticket coupons, which take tickets from $10+ to $7.)
Get thee to Entertainment.com and order your book already! Don't make me tell you again.

$5 off $10 at ThinkGeek.
ThinkGeek is chock-full of crazy, amazing, awesome geeky gifts, and browsing through their site is like letting me loose in a geek candy store... until it comes to checkout time and their outrrrageous shipping slaps me in the face. Ouch!
Now you can use a couple of handy coupon codes to mitigate that pain. $5 off $10, which is a pretty good deal, or $10 off $40, which is still 25% off. Don't put off purchasing that popping edamame keychain any longer!
Coupon code: 9C4 ($5 OFF $10)
Coupon code: PUZZLING ($10 OFF $40)

Free 12 oz. coffee drink, 40% off a book at Borders.
Well, this is a pretty good coupon... you can get a free 12 oz coffee beverage from the Seattle's Best Coffee kiosk inside Borders. Downtown Seattleites, it just so happens that the Borders at 4th and Pike has a coffee kiosk in it, so you know what to do.
It doesn't explicitly say so here, but I think you might need to be a Borders Rewards member in order to use this. But aren't you already? You get great coupons and deals all the time, and it's free!
While I'm at it, here's a coupon for 40% off any book, so you can get something to read while you're sipping on that iced latte. This one you definitely have to be a Rewards member to use, so sign up! See, I told you you get good stuff...

Caress/Degree/Hellman's/Pond's freebies up again.
Yesterday the Interwebs were going nuts about this four-in-one sampleganza - so much so that the site crashed. Not to worry, today it's back, and you can get your samples of Caress body wash, Hellman's mayo, Degree perfume, and Pond's moisturizer in one visit! Just click on the brand name and then the orange "Free Sample" button.
You can also ask "Rocco" your burning beauty questions, so really, you can't lose.
