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!

So I got in my ark and went shopping today!

Is it just the Maritimes or is anyone else experiencing the 40 days and 40 nights of constant rain?!!! I am really hoping we are going to be seeing that.....um...........that.......wait I know it starts with an "s".............that big yellow thing in the sky soon :( Well despite the potential flooding of our driveway I did manage to escape today with a good friend of mine and head into Amherst for some retail therapy.

First stop was Walmart where I picked up a Mr. Clean Febreeze Spray that was on sale for $2.00 (reg. $2.99 or $3.99) Used my www.brandsaver.com Mr. Clean Spray coupon of $0.75 off and got it for $1.25! Now our apartment will smell of lavender and all purpose cleaner! Hmmmmmmmm spring is in the air!

Then we sauntered over to the Atlantic Superstore where I made a killing at Joe Fresh, my fav clothing store. I used their $10.00 off $50.00 or more apparel coupon they currently have online now http://www.joefresh.com/en/fresh_promotions/get_your_coupons/ I also had a $50.00 gift card that my lovely sweetheart of a boyfriend gave me for Christmas. So I was able to purchase 5 shirts and a pair of leggings, and after all the deductions I only paid $14.00 for everything! I highly recommend checking out your local Joe Fresh store and taking advantage of this deal. It is only available until Sunday, May 22nd.

So after a very successful clothing trip I headed over to my local Foodland grocery store and found a couple more great in store coupons that were matched with sale items. Today I was able to purchase Ah Caramels & Delissico pizza on for a great price. Ah Caramels is usually on for $4.00. They were on sale today $2.22. There was an in store coupon for another $0.50 off so it brought it down to $1. 72. Sweeter than the Ah Caramels.....The Delissio Thin Crust Deluxe pizza that is normally $7.99 was on sale for $4.99 compared with an in store coupon for $0.50 off took it down to $4.49. If you are heading out to Foodland, that sale is going on till Thursday.

On a side note, I've started doing some coupon trading through www.smartcanucks.ca and I have to tell you it's a lot of fun so far. Talking with other fellow couponers who are willing to give me a coupon I've been looking for, in exchange for one that I may have that they want is a really great system... I tell ya's, going to the mail this week is going to be quite interesting ;)
