$8 Tshirts plus free shipping on at DisneyStore.com

I know how the kiddos go through t-shirts so I thought I'd share this deal with you.  Disneystore.com has a sale on t-shirts for $8 and they're shipping free all weekend with coupon code freeship.

If you're shopping for a toddler, the XXS is a 2T-3T and the XS a 4T. So there are T's to fit toddlers through older kids.

If you use ebates, go to disneystore.com through their link and you'll get 5% cash back on your purchase. If you don't use ebates, you can sign up and you'll get $5 credit for signing up plus the 5% cash back. You just have to go to disneystore.com through their link.  I've used ebates for at least 10 years, so I can vouch for it. In fact, I just got a check in the mail yesterday!
