Holiday Deals? Gift Cards, DVD, Soda Stream...so many

What holiday deals have you been getting?

I used this coupon at HEB to get a ton of gift cards:
We got $600 in Amazon since we use that site for everything in our house. We also got $900 in a "home improvement" gift card that works at Lowe's and Home Depot. We're going to do a lot of changes to our home an will need the supplies. These two purchases have saved us $250.

I saw SodaStream's deal:
FF2012 for 50% off a soda maker and then FREEFIZZ for free shipping. So I got the not so pretty red sodastream for $40. It came with a free sampler of 12 flavors. So getting an item in a funky color worth saving $40? We'll see. I figure if we don't use it, we'll just give it to someone.
Apparently if you want 50% off you can get anything from this site: sodastream's FF There's still some units on there but not the $80 one.

My husband loved the batman movie so I went out to get the DVD. There was an excellent comparison chart on where to get it from:
The Three Disc DVD/Blu-ray Combo Pack + Ultraviolet Digital Copy

My local wal-mart had this (apparently it's kind of rare now). Apparently for all versions of this set, Wa-Mart has the best prices (at least for this week). 


As great as these deals were, this was all I've gotten. It's a strange mix of good deals out there of items I'm not really interested in getting. I guess I wish there were more gift card deals that were at least 15% off. 

There is Target's deal of $10 gift card with $50 in purchases but it won't work for gift cards. So I need to find enough items to buy there now (expires in three days) and they don't allow you to buy ANY gift cards. Meh.
