Genealogy Deals

Now that the holiday season is upon us; genealogy sales and specials are beginning to trickle out. Two decent specials are listed below. I, personally, have taken advantage of the MyHeritage sale in the past.

Deal #1
For readers of Eastman's Online Genealogy Newsletter (EOGN), he has secured a very limited 1/2 price off a year subscription to MyHeritage.com for $125. You must be a subscriber to his daily newsletter. It is free and offers lots of good genealogical info. If interested, click on the above link to EOGN and follow the links for the 1/2 price off for a MyHeritage subscription.

Deal #2
DNA company 23andMe are offering a sale of their Ancestry DNA kit for just $49 per kit when you buy two or more kits. This is a great way to get yourself and also perhaps an older relative tested. This offer ends 23 November 2017.

DNA Kits on Sale!

From time to time as I am notified or find genealogy related items that are "on sale" I usually post an article for those who might be interested. For me, unfortunately I get no cut in that action, perhaps I should look into that.

Anyways, Ancestry.com has a sale on its DNA kit for $79 with free shipping. To get this great price and free shipping (usually about $8-9) use the coupon code FREESHIPDNA. Additional kits are $69 each. The coupon code expires soon so check it!

Check FamilyTreeDNA.com for their 20% off sale on the various FamilyTreeDNA kits.

United States Flag Store

Another great offer for this Memorial Day Weekend is from the the United States Flag Store.

Enter the code DEAL10 for an additional 10% off military flags. Offer ends 6 June!

The flags that I purchase are always bought in bundles of 12; which knocks the price down to .67 each. WWI, WWII, and GAR flag holders have also been purchased from them at less than $15 each. They also have free shipping on orders greater than $75.

I usually stock up on these items at this time but I am also a cemetery enthusiast who places flags on all of my ancestors and relatives gravesites who were military veterans.
