It can be hard to find a discount for Skechers Shape-Ups, which boast increased muscle toning and calorie burning with each step and have a rounded heel similar to MBT.  They retail for around $99-$110 and I’ve found that Kohl’s coupons normally work for Shape-ups (I’ve seen them as low as $79.99 after their 20% off coupon), but many other stores list them as a brand exclusion for any additional discounts.  But, I found a much lower price today at Metrostyle.  They have Skechers Shape-Ups in black/white or white/silver for $99.99 and you get another $40 off with their MSJAN53 coupon code for 40% off one item, which reduces them to $59.99.  The catch?  They are currently on backorder with an expected ship date of 3/3/10 and shipping adds a rather hefty $12.99.  Even with shipping and a bit of a wait, it’s still a great deal for anyone in the market for a pair of Skechers fitness shoes.  The coupon ends 2/22/10.

Update: It appears the Shape-Ups are back in stock at Metrostyle and coupon code MSPRING43 will take 40% off one item, making them $59.99, until 4/5/10.

Cheap Chick was on the prowl again today (this birdie can not be contained) and she found several name-brand athletic shoes and boots for under $25 at Boscovs.  The prices are already super-low, but you also get an additional discount at checkout during their Extra Secret Discount Sale (psst…it’s another 10% off).  Here are a few examples of the savings you can get:

Sometimes it takes a bit more for an athletic shoe to catch my eye than, say, a pair of hot heels.  However, I’m loving these new Merrell CTR Cruise sneakers, which are offered in a lovely shade of green made even more appealing with the contrast of black and white.  Aside from pure looks, the shoes are designed to support the foot during off-road, all-terrain workouts.  You can get them at Shoebuy for $109.95 and apply coupon code BLOWOUT to get another 20% off, making them $87.96 with free shipping.  Other options include ivory/purple and grey/light blue.  Coupon expiration is unknown.

Here’s some good news for anyone workin’ on their fitness for New Year’s.  If you’re seeking the extra muscle toning benefits touted by Skechers Shape-Ups fitness shoes, you can get them for less today at Kohls.  Skechers Shape-Ups are often excluded from coupon discounts, but Kohls coupon YOURGIFT takes 20% off any order and it works on the Shape-Ups as well.  The Skechers Shape-Ups Action Packed High-Performance Shoes in black and gray are on sale for $99.99, but the code will save you another $20, making them $79.99 with free shipping.  If you aren’t in the market for Skechers, you can always use the code to discount any other shoes sold at Kohls.  Coupon expires 1/20/10.

Got a New Year’s resolution for 2010?  If so, chances are you plan to either start an exercise program or up the ante on an existing one, which is one of the most common goals people set for themselves.  If you’re like me, you definitely love the results from working out, but you may need an extra kick in the pants to really get started - particularly after the free-for-all love-fest we call the holidays.  Of course, a cute pair of workout shoes can certainly provide motivation, especially when they are on sale and go along with another popular ”spend less, save more” resolution many people make.  If you aim to slim both your waistline and your spending, try these sales out:

Kohls has plenty of working out shoes on sale and they take another 20% off with coupon code ATHLETIC20 until 1/7/10.  The Adidas Duramo trail running shoe is on sale for $44.99, but drops to $35.99 after coupon.  Update: This coupon code excludes Skechers Shape-ups, but you can use new coupon codes JANSAVE15 for 15% off any order or JANTAKE20 for 20% off $100 until 1/6/10.  They both work on Shape-ups.  Update2: Use coupon code EXTRA20 for an additional 20% off any order, including Shape-ups, until 1/19/10.  That takes another $20 off Skechers Shape-ups priced at $99.

6pm is having a New Balance sale this week, which discounts the brand by up to 70%.  Of course, the sizes for many pairs are very limited, but I noticed there’s still availability on this pair - the New Balance SW920.  It’s on sale for $28.50 (MSRP $95) and there’s still a wide selection of sizes to pick from in lavender or yellow.  Of course, you can also check out all of the other New Balance shoes on sale (select your size at the top) to see what strikes your fancy.  Sale ends 11/22/09.

We all need shoes for sweating it out, even if some of our best-laid plans for regular workout sessions can often be put on hold.  But, a great new pair of workout shoes can certainly motivate and Sears happens to be having an awesome athletic shoe sale right now.  It’s a BOGO deal that takes 50% off your second pair and it combines with coupon code SHOPONLINE, which takes 20% off any shoe order.  At the very least, it’ll keep the wallet lighter, right?

As an example, you can get the Skechers Starry in white/purple (above) for $29.99 and the Reebok Trail Wave (left) for $19.99.  Get them together and you’ll pay just $31.98 for both after discount, which is only about $16 a pair.
