This Week's Best Deals: Free 'Minions' Tickets, Amazing July 4 Sales

There's no need to wait until the holiday weekend to take advantage of July 4 sales—because many retailers have launched discounts early. Get a deal on a TV that's worthy of Black Friday, or score $50 off select purchases at Allen Edmunds.
Here are the best bargains this week:
4th of July Sales
Like any other holiday weekend, Independence Day will bring with it a slew of sales, many of which have already started. Calvin Klein Outlet so far offers the best discounts, slashing 60% off sitewide when you add an item to the shopping cart. Plus, coupon code "CKTEN" takes an extra 10% off on top of that. Combined, that's the best discount we've seen from CK Outlet this year.
Meanwhile, some retail heavyweights have already started unveiling their 4th of July discounts, including Amazon, Best Buy, Sears, and Walmart. To find out what the full range of sales will offer this week, click here.
Free Minions Tickets
Take a look around the house; are you in need of any toiletries, paper products, or other such goods? Excellent! If you spend just $30 on P&G products — which includes brands such as Charmin, Tide, Bounty, Gillette, and Pantene— you are eligible to receive two free tickets to see Minions. Be sure to click here to see what stores are participating (many large-chain stores are not), and to obtain an online or mail-in submission form to receive a redemption code, which is valid until August 31. This deal will score one adult ticket and one child's ticket, worth up to $13 and $8, respectively.
A Black Friday-Caliber TV Deal
Typically, we advise that TV shoppers wait until the fall to buy a new set, but shoppers would be foolish to overlook this amazing offer. P.C. Richard & Son currently knocks the price of this Haier 50" 1080p TV to just $299.97 with free shipping, which is $100 off and one of the cheapest 50" TVs we've ever seen. It doesn't include "smart" capabilities, but with those savings you can easily pick up a cheap streaming player like a Roku or Apple TV.
Buy New Kicks And Save $50
American Express cardholders who spend $200 or more at Allen Edmunds will receive a $50 statement credit, which is like getting $50 off your purchase. (After logging in, applicable cardholders can activate this deal under "My Offers" at the bottom of the page.) That's the year's best such offer from Allen Edmunds, which sells high-quality dress shoes for men. Deal ends September 20, so there's quite a lot of time to grab this offer.
