It is that time of year again. The time of year that all your beer drinking, football watching, junk food eating dreams become a reality. Whether you’re all about the game or all about the party, we’ve got 10 stores to help make all of your Super Bowl fantasies come true.

Tiger Direct

Do you have a recurring dream of seeing Eli Manning throw an 85 yard pass to win the game? Does your dream include watching it on a big, shiny, new TV? We recommend checking out Tiger Direct. We’ve seen a Sony 32″ Google TV for $420, a 46″ 3D Samsung TV for $1300, a Vizio 55″ TV for $900 and more. We can’t guarantee a new TV will make your team win, but even losing is better on a 55″ screen.

NFL Shop

What if we told you it was a GOOD thing your team didn’t make it to the Super Bowl this year? Before you get crazy, think about all the amazing sales you can get on apparel for teams that are not in the big game. Plus, through 2/29 you can use our exclusive code BRADSDEALS7 to get 7% off sitewide! The NFL Shop has Reebok replica jerseys, customizable jerseys in your favorite team colors, hats, collectibles and anything else you’ll need to become the envy of football-lovers everywhere.

Kegerator.com

No Super Bowl fantasy is complete without beer. And yes, this is really a store. Kegerator.com has a selection of kegerators, beer coolers, bar accessories and even furniture. Even if your team is losing at halftime, you can at least rest easy knowing that nobody wants to trash-talk the beer provider.

2. $30 off Weight Watchers Online: If you’re looking to get back into shape, maybe drop a couple of “El Bees” then we’ve got a good deal for you.

3. Crocs Women’s Sandals $15 Shipped: These sandals drop to web-wide low prices, just in time for Spring. These aren’t your kids Crocs. Thank goodness, cause their feet are too small.

It would make a great Valentine’s Day gift for the guy in your life as well. He gets to feel comfortable, you get him out of his old, hole-filled college hoodie. Win-win!

Spring seems so far away. Winter is doing it’s typical teeth-kicking routine here in the Midwest, and it’s no fun. At least we have our tech deals to put a little spring back in our step, and this week we bring you some doozies.

We have a deal on Wii Fit Plus, a 14MP digital camera, some touchscreen gloves for an awesome price, and even some great tech coupons to round out Brad’s Tech Tuesdays for this week.

So think warm thoughts, don’t leave your house to shop, and just wait it out. Spring will be here soon enough, even if your perpetual goosebumps beg to differ! On to the deals…

Top Tech Deals:

1) Pogoplug Pro Wireless Sharing Device $25: Put this nice little device on your wireless network, and gain access to your computer or external hard drives from basically any internet enabled device. Have your tablet with you on the road but need that one important document that you left on your home computer? If you have this Pogoplug, you could get that file from your tablet, from anywhere in the world. Plus, it’s the lowest price we’ve ever seen on this model.

2) Women’s SmartTouch Gloves $16 Shipped: Winter gloves in a tech blog? Yep, when they’re this tech savvy, you know we have to include them. These gloves allow you to use touchscreen devices (iPhone, iPod, Android devices, tablets, iPad, etc) without exposing your finger-piggies to the cold. And as is always the case with any deal we post, this is the best price we could find anywhere. Save some dough, and your digital dexterity!

3) Garmin nuvi 2300LM 4.3″ GPS $120 Shipped: This GPS unit has a huge screen and turn-by-turn directions. It’s a current best price, and comes with lifetime map updates. Plus, if you ask it nicely, it will take you right past your gym and to the donut shop, cause let’s face it, that’s where you’d rather be anyway. Stupid gym.

4) Nikon Coolpix 14MP Camera $100 Shipped: This camera can shoot HD video, and it comes in four colors. No plain silver or black for you, no way. Plus, it supports the new SDXC card format, meaning you can get memory cards for this camera up to 128GB! That’s enough for hundreds of thousands of pics, and hours of video. You won’t fill that card, but we dare you to try!

5) Wii Fit Plus w/ Balance Board $92 Shipped: This game for the Nintendo Wii system is designed to get you moving, and to help you track your workouts. The included balance board tracks your progress. Hopefully, your GPS system doesn’t tell your Wii that you went to the donut shop. Hopefully…

No need to be cold with deals that are this hot, hot, hot!

Sorry, that was too “used car commercial” even for us, and we wrote it. Yuck. The sentiment is true, though. We did find for you the top 5 deals, top 5 coupons and top 5 reader comments of the week in this, the latest edition of The Best of BradsDeals. We’ve got sweaters, shoes, laptop bags, text books, clothes, and that’s just the stuff sitting on our desk!

Now, to the deals…

Top 5 Online Deals:

1. Reebok Shoes from $25 Shipped: Let’s face it, it’s resolution time. No one likes it, everyone does it. If you have decided that this is the year to hit the gym more, do it with some new Reebok kicks. Most styles are at current price lows…just because you’re getting ripped, doesn’t mean you have to get ripped off!

2. LOFT: 60% Off Sale Sweaters: The sweater you got for Christmas from your third-cousin Sue…the one with the applique reindeer with the Christmas light nose…yeah, that’s gotta go. Replace it with one of these gorg sweaters, some of which drop to $14! They don’t light up like Sue’s sweet gift, but hey, we all have to make tradeoffs!

3. Garmin Nuvi 1200CS 3.5″ GPS $80 Shipped: Over the river and through the woods, to grandmother’s house we go. Nuvi knows the way, to pilot your sleigh, and at this price, you’ll save some dough, oh!

4. Power Pack Laptop Backpack $50 Shipped: This laptop backpack is at a BradsDeals exclusive price, and the best of the web by $14. We stole a bunch of them off the back of a truck found this great deal just for you, so now you and your laptop can roam free, the way nature intended.

Your dentist totally doesn’t want you to read this. Neither does your personal trainer. And it certainly won’t help any of your New Years resolutions. But hey, we all crave something sweet from time to time. So why not treat yourself? Inspired by our own case of the afternoon munchies, here are some of the most delicious online stores we know.

Fairytale Brownies takes the traditional brownie to a whole new level of tastiness.

Fairytale Brownies

Do you love brownies? I mean, REALLY love brownies? Then Fairytale Brownies is the place for you. These guys offer gooey, chocolaty, gourmet brownies to die for, and using coupon code SAVE10 for 10% off your order definitely sweetens the deal.

Shari’s Berries

I have three words for you: Chocolate. Covered. Strawberries. Whether drizzled with chocolate, dipped in sprinkles or rolled in colored sugar, these scrumptious berries are so pretty you’ll almost feel guilty eating them. But just like biting the head off of your chocolate Easter bunny when you were a kid, you’ll totally get over it.  Especially when your order of $29 or more nets you a 15% discount.

Edible Arrangements

Although they’re best known for cleverly arranged fruit bouquets, one look at the Edible Arrangements homepage makes it clear that you can get your fruit with a side of chocolate. If the calories bother you, just remember that chocolate is a mood-booster and full of antioxidants. Their “Gifts under $50″ page makes it easy to find something that fits your budget, and you can take an additional $3 off with coupon code HBPC0103.

The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is currently underway in Las Vegas. They exhibit the future of all things tech, from the newest cell phones, to televisions, to laptops and robots (we hope). Most of the items on display aren’t yet available to the public, so what is a tried and true techie such as yourself to do? Get the best deals on all of the best consumer-ready tech out there right now.

That’s where we come in, with this week’s edition of Brad’s Tech Tuesdays: the top 10 tech deals and tech coupons of the week. So you couldn’t make it to Vegas…who cares! We’ll bring the best tech deals around right to you, free of charge. Plus, you’ll save on airfare, gambling, and whatever else you might waste money on in Vegas (a 99 cent buffet may seem cheap at first, but you really pay for it later!).

Top Tech Deals:

1) Zenith 50″ Plasma HDTV $500: This plasma is well-sized, perfect for a big room. It is well reviewed, and $150 off the list price. Plus, at CES 2062, you can turn it in for free admission to the show (not sure if that’s true, but write us back in 50 years and let us know how it goes! Good luck!).

2) Intouch Wireless Internet Radio Cube $34: This cute little cube uses Wi-fi to access internet radio stations. It also has an alarm clock, a touch screen, and a terrestrial radio (a traditional FM radio to the layperson…we’re sooo savvy!).

3) Garmin nuvi 4.3″ GPS Navigation $110: This GPS system features a big touchscreen, turn by turn navigation, and free lifetime traffic updates. “Hey nuvi, what’s my commute gonna look like tomorrow? Should I take the highway or stay on the surface streets?” Oh, wait, it can’t predict the future…yet!

4) HP 16″ i7 Blu-ray Laptop $735 Shipped: This laptop features a 1GB graphics card for seamless video, a Blu-ray player for seamless HD video on-the-go, a Quad-core Intel Processor for seamless multitasking, and, hopefully, a seamless thesaurus that works nicer than ours. Ours keeps suggesting seamless. Argh!

5) HTC Evo Design 4G + 4GB Card Free: This sweet phone has a dual-core processor, and with our exclusive code, you get a bonus 4GB memory card to expand the phone’s capabilities. Oh, and it’s free, with a confirmed upgrade to the latest Android Operating System, Ice Cream Sandwich. Yep, Android rolls out new versions of their OS fairly often, and they’re all named after sweet treats. We’re waiting until they have an OS called Crunch Berry before we get a new phone. Fingers crossed!

Top Tech Coupons:

1) HP: $450 off Select Customized HP Laptops via code NBQE3876

2) Dell: $100 off Dell XPS 15 or 17 Laptops via code 932N$0ZCCHWZB9
