5 *Seriously* Good Discount Codes to Get You Through to Black Friday

Let’s be real for a second: Sh*t’s expensive. Gas is atrocious. Olive oil is like, $20. And don’t even get me started on McDonald’s! Even if you don’t consider yourself a “coupon person” (hey, I worked at the Krazy Coupon Lady, so no judgement here), at this point, you’d be downright negligent not to look for a discount code any time you shop.

Luckily, I have a few to share, and they’re all for *really* good brands that don’t actually offer codes all that often.

The Awe Inspired coupon code I got is worth its weight in gold alone—and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Thanks to these codes, you can rent designer handbags for 80 percent off, get the best shampoo of your life (no, but really), and stock up on gummies that will help you chillax—and who couldn’t use a little more chill these days?  

Below, five discount codes that will get you through to Black Friday.

1. Vivrelle

• Vivrelle code: NICOLEBRIESE
• Discount: 80% off first month
• What to Buy: Classique membership

If you’ve never experienced Vivrelle, you’re in for a treat. This members-only site lets you borrow designer bags—we’re talking Chanel, Louis and Prada—and you can keep them for as long as you like. It requires some dedication and skill—the best bags tend to go quickly, so you’ll need to make a wishlist of your faves and keep an eye on your back in stock notifications—but when you get the piece of your dreams, it’s totally worth it. I snagged the pictured Egyptian-themed piece from the Chanel Pre-Fall 2019 Métiers d’Art show and I may never give it back—you can buy the pieces you really love at a discount. Type my first and last name (NICOLEBRIESE) in to get 80% off your first month.

2. Awe Inspired Coupon Code

• Awe Inspired coupon code: NICOLE15
• Discount: 15% off
• What to Buy: Armor stacked ring, Spiked heart earrings, Goddess necklace

Awe Inspired is my favorite jewelry brand of all time.  Between the high-quality silver that doesn’t tarnish even after years of wear (my earliest piece is from roughly 2019) and the chunky, witchy designs that are right up my alley, Awe Inspired forever has my heart. (Particularly since I got my very own code, NICOLE15, that will take 15% off the entire site.)

3. Cured Nutrition

• Cured Nutrition code: NICOLEBRIESE
• Discount: $10 off
• What to Buy: Serenity gummies, Dream gummies, Flow gummies

Rarely will I say a supplement is legit. The fact of the matter is, without a medical study to prove whether it’s definitively working on a cellular level, it can be tough to tell. These leave me with absolutely zero doubt, however. When I take the Serenity gummies, which have just a milligram of THC, I feel calmer. When I take the Dream gummies, which have CBD and CBN, I drift off to sleep. And when I take the Flow gummies, which are made with organic lion’s mane, gingko biloba and green coffee extract, I get sh*t done. They really, actually work. Better yet, my code NICOLEBRIESE will get you 15% off on top of any current sales. (You’re welcome.)

4. Christophe Robin

• Christophe Robin Discount Code: NICOLEBCR20
• Discount: 20% off
• What to Buy: Cleansing purifying scalp scrub, Delicate Volumising shampoo, Perfecting radiance oil

Is it really any surprise that Christophe Robin makes *the* best shampoo on the planet? It’s French! Not only is its Cleansing Scalp Scrub the only thing that banishes my grease for a solid three days straight, its Delicate volumizing shampoo just so happens to be the exact cleanser one Miss Taylor Swift uses. I’m not sure how I was lucky enough to snag a 20% off code of NICOLEBCR20 for the whole site, but I did, and I highly recommend taking advantage of it—this stuff is legit.

5. Bears with Benefits

1. Code: BWB25
2. Discount: 25% off + free First Defense Immune jar with $40
3. What to Buy: Ah-Mazing Hair gummies, Strong to the Bone gummies, Trust Your Gut gummies

When it comes to taking vitamins, I am truly the worst. I remember to take mine once every 17 days or so (my poor body runs on coffee and fumes), so anything that helps me accomplish this task is a plus. While I can’t fully speak to the effectiveness of these bear-shaped gummy vitamins (see my note on medical claims above), I can say that these fun little chews are so goddamn delicious that they lasted less than a month in my cupboard before I needed to reorder—a real personal feat! There are six different formulas to choose from, each of which targets a different concern—I’m partial to the Ah-Mazing hair gummies and the Strong to the Bone.
