BOGO is da BOMB-O

Went to Sobeys today and picked up a couple of their BOGO (Buy One Get One) Free items. I picked up two Kraft Ranch Dressings (the small 250mL bottles) for $2.39 for both, two Dempster Whole Grain wraps (the 248g ones- 8 wraps) for $3.89, two Kraft Pasta Salad Macaroni's (not on BOGO but got $0.30 off with my magazine coupon) for $1.49 and a bottle water. What should have cost me $19.00 only ended up costing me $10.07! That's almost half off! Flippin eh!!

I also picked up some Wonder Bread Simply Plus on at Zellers for $1.99. With my $0.75 off coupon from the Smart Saver it only came to $1.24 when it's normally $2.50.

As well I am heading to Walmart hopefully tonight to pick up my Ponds face cream that is BOGO (Reg. $6.76).

That is my new favourite word...BOGO!....I wonder if it's too much to get that as a tattoo?.....Maybe I'll sleep on that one :)

Best Shopping Day Yet!

You can say that again...Ok! Best Shopping Day Yet! Went off to Amherst today to do some Sunday Shopping and found some great treasures.

Started off by hitting the little Amherst Mall and went into Target. Got some nice black dress pants for half price! Cost me $23.00 even (taxes in) That hardly ever happens!

Went over to Shoppers Drugmart where I was going to use my OB Tampon coupon ($5.00 off WUB 2) on their sale which was set at $2.99. However after reading the coupon more carefully it said I can only use it on regular priced items :( So ex-nayed on the ampons-Tay! BUT instead of walking out of Shoppers defeated I ended up picking up a tube or Green works natural biodegradable cleaning wipes that are normally like $3.99 but were on sale for $1.99. I had my coupon from brandsaver or websaver (can't remember now) for an additional $1.50 off so I only ended up paying $0.79 for it, taxes in! That is some good savings right there!

As great a deal that was to find at Shoppers, I think I hit the jackpot at Walmart. I picked up two Glade Fabric Sprays. I had a Buy One Get One Free coupon (BOGO) from brandsaver so I got only paid $2.37 for both! That made them each only $1.19! I also grabbed a bottle of Maybelline FIT me Foundation that was regular $7.96 but had a websaver coupon for another $5.00 off which brought it to $2.96. Finally I grabbed some Sunlight Dish soap on for $1.49. With my save.ca coupon for another $0.50 off it came to only $0.99! This is also the hand replenishing kind so it's not the boring ole regular stuff. This is fancy :)

Sobeys was a good success as well. This is what my small bill looked like today....

Shredded Cheddar cheese (Sale) $3.00

Quaker Oats Rice Crisps (Sale) 3 for $4.98

Summer Fresh Hummus (Sale) $2.97

Cavendish Flavor Crisps (Sale) $2.29 - (Gocoupons.com coupon $1.00 off) = $1.29

Stoeffers Bistro Chicken Fajitas (Sale) $2.00 x 2=$4.00

Total with Tax: $16.81.....awesome

To top off a good shopping trip I checked out my fave clothing store Joe Fresh where I picked up a few items and received a free $10.00 gift card to use on my next purchase since I spent over $50.00.

I hope the police don't catch me....cause I really felt like I stole some of those things today at those prices!

Is it Possible for Pets to Take on their Owners Interests?

...Cause if so I think I'm gonna need a whole lot more coupons :)

Who needs to go on Vacation when I have the scent of Febreze Brazilian Spray filling up my kitchen...

....It makes me feel like I'm already in Brazil!......Ok no, not really it's a poor substitute for the real thing...happy?!....but it smells nice...and even better I got it with coupons! Oh yes I did, I trudged through the pouring rain and picked me up some deals.

Before heading in to town my boyfriend and I went to our local Foodland and found some great deals to use with our or should I say my coupons hehe. Ocean Spray Cranberry juice was on sale for $2.49 which is really really good since it's normally $4.99 a jug! I had a $1.00 off coupon from a recent trade and got it for $1.49! Do I like Ocean Spray Cranberry juice? I do now! As well Kraft Shredded Cheese is on sale for $3.99. If you have the save.ca coupon for $1.00 off you can get it for $2.99 like I did. Love it!

I made a stop at Walmart and picked up 3 cans of Febreze Room Sprays. They were on sale for $3.00 each. I had a very good coupon from brandsaver.ca that took an extra $4.00 off WUB 3 Febreze products so I ended up paying only $5.00 for all three. I essentially only paid $1.67 for each which is fantastic considering they usually cost about $5.00 for one of those. They also had Crispers on for a buck as well at the front of the store. There's that word again...buck! Love how it falls off the tongue...

At Sobeys they have Dr. Oetker Panebella pizza on for $4.49. Received a handy $1.00 off coupon for this particular pizza in one of my latest trades and got it for $3.49! Gonna taste really good after that buy! However I made a rookie mistake today when I purchased an Ole El Paso Taco Kit....which is Ok since I am a rookie at this couponing thang! I saw in the flyer that the kits were on sale for $3.99. I thought that was a good deal so I went searching for them and on the shelf I see a price alert showing the kits for $2.99.! This is an even better deal I thought since I had a $1.00 off coupon from save.ca and it would bring it down to $1.99. So me being the eager beaver I grabbed one since it was kind of above the $2.99 sign, paid for it and then looked at my receipt and it only said $3.99 (which is still a good price since they are normally $4.49 or $4.99). I asked the cashier about it and she said that they are only on for $3.99. I said alright, but not being satisfied with the answer I went back to see for myself that I wasn't hallucinating...Sure enough, there it was staring me in the face...$2.99! I go to customer service...yes I went to customer service about this, that's what they are there for...and asked WTF!!!! Well not really that but I kindly inquired as to the correct pricing of the item. She called someone and they said that it was only for a particular kind of kit which I did not check before hand. I guess it was for the very basic taco kit. The one I picked up was the Taco kit with hard and soft shells. So lesson learned. Always read your flyer, price alerts, and coupons correctly! Needless to say I slumped out of Sobeys defeated....well not really...it was only a dollar...but still...I'm over it...

To cheer myself I purchased some lovely summer attire for my wardrobe. A cute little black frilly top and a summery green dress...each $12.00 at Giant Tiger! They actually have very cute clothing in there if no one has discovered this yet. I could dare to compare them to Joe Fresh but lets just wait and see how long they last before I give them that classification.

Finally, I went to Pharmasave and got paper towel on for $0.69. It's the Majesta brand so it's worth it to pick up a couple packages.

It wasn't one of my better shopping trips but as I said before, I've still got my training wheels on here for this whole coupon process. I'm sure as time goes on I will get better at picking out my deals, maybe even sniffing them out...Can you train a bloodhound to sniff out savings? Cause if so it's time to go to the SPCA...again

A Quarter for Hotdog buns! Is this legal!?!

That doesn't seem right to me...A quarter for Wonder bread+ hot dog buns at the Sobeys...I don't even eat hot dogs really and I am picking some up!

So let me just back track a bit so I can explain where I found this WONDER-ful discovery. In this weeks flyer for Sobeys I found a sale on Wonder Bread+ hot dogs buns for $0.99. I have a $0.75 off coupon from a recent coupon trade on smartcanucks.ca for any Wonder Bread+ Product. So that brings it to a Quarter really (plus HST)!

Other good flyer/coupon match ups I found this week are...

Foodland has Ocean Spray Cranberry Juice on for $2.49 this week-With $1.00 off coupon from recent coupon trade brings it to $1.49. I think the coupon came for a flyer or newspaper.

Sobeys has Old El Paso Dinner Kits that are usually on for $4.99 regular price, on sale for $3.99. If you have the Save.ca coupon for $1.00 off you can get it for $2.99..now that's more like it!

Walmart's sales this week on Covergirl Wet Slicks lip gloss is $3.97 each. If you have the $3.00 off WUB (When You Buy) 2 Covergirl products coupon from brandsaver.ca it will basically cost you $5.00 for two. Walmart also has Febreze room sprays on for $3.00 each. I WILL GIVE someone my Febreze coupon for $4.00 off WUB 3 Febreze products coupon and you will get 3 room sprays for $5.00. This is a good deal considering the room sprays usually cost about $4.00 each..so you are a paying a dollar more on top of what you would normally pay for one room spray to get two more additional room sprays. Just email me at allywooo@hotmail.com if you are interested in the coupon and I will send it off to you.

Finally Giant Tiger has some cute stripped tank tops on for $3.00 each. Perfect for the warm weather I HOPE WE ARE GETTING SOON! As well they also have Majesta toilet paper (8 double rolls) on for $3.49. If you have the save.ca $1.00 off Majesta Bathroom tissue any size you can get it for $2.49! Stocking up shall we say...I've got two of these coupons burning a hole in my pocket!

Alright time to go to bed...and dream of coupons...Did I say that out loud........
