I joined a Canadian Couponing group online. Well, I guess it is more than just a couponing group. They also update about contests, freebies & rebates.
One of the great things about the group is the fact that members can post coupons they don't want and ask for coupons they are looking for. I was able to get $93.00 worth of coupons, that someone else doesn't need, that I will use. All I had to do was send her 2 postage stamps for every $10 in coupons I wanted. So I mailed away 18 new, unused postage stamps and she will send me my coupons. Yay!! Can't wait!!

Deals! Deals! & More Deals!!
I'm on vacation but that didn't stop me from couponing!!
Today I bought 8 bottles (250ml) Old Spice & Gillette shower gel @ $2.00 each and I had $10.00 in coupons so I only paid $4.00 for 7 bottles...less than a .60 cents per bottle!!
I bought a couple of products that I hadn't tried before. Since I had a coupon and the final price was reasonable I decided to give it a try. One was Tide to Go pen ...$3.97- $1.00 coupon & the other was Resolve stain Remover...I think it was $4 or $5 with a $1.00 coupon making it $3 or $4
I have searched high & low to find Iams trial size dog food and finally, while vacationing in another province, I found it!!!!!! $1.99 a bag and I had 3x $2.00 off any size bag so I got 3 bags of it for FREE!!! Sadly, our dog passed away on May1 of this year but I will either donate it to the animal shelter, food bank or to family or friend who have a dog.
Hmmmm....what else did I use a coupon on...Ladies shave gel $1.50 used a $1.00 off coupon making it .50 cents, can of cat food .98 cents used a .50 cents off coupon making it .48 cents. I also bought a small pack of Pampers baby wipes $2.47 minus a $1.00 coupon and I bought a larger tub of Huggies baby wipes $3.47 minus a $1.00 coupon. These are great for us as we are on vacation and it's nice to have something to wash our hands with while travelling.
The deals aren't over yet folks!
I stumbled upon a Dollar store that was going out of business and I got a package of Crayola markers, 2 packages of Student Reward pockets & 2 packages of party favors for my son's upcoming birthday party...all 30 % off . I only paid a bit over $5.00
And the deal of the day is....drum roll please!!!
Carlton cards was selling their overstocked cards 5/$1.00. Mother's day, Father's day, Graduation, Easter, Valentine's day & Christmas. I stocked up!! I bought 20 cards that totaled over $107.00 after tax but I paid only $4.60 after tax! That's about a 96% savings! Now that's HUGE!

More couponing
I was lucky enough to hit a couple of deals at the grocery store yesterday. They have a coupon section just inside the door and also a clearance section. They had Stride gum multi packs on 50% off and a 'buy2 save $1.00' coupon. The gum rang up at sale price for $1.67 each and the dollar off coupon brought it to $2.34...so each individual pack turned out to be only .39 cents!
The other deal I hit was salad dressing 50% off and I had a $1.00 off coupon. It was Newman's Own Organic dressing. It rang up at $1.27 and with the coupon I only paid .27 cents!! I checked the expiry date and it's good til March 2012. Of course, once I got to the car I realized I had another coupon but I didn't have time to go back in.

Coupons!!
Finding coupons! Using coupons! I love coupons!
I had asked my mom to ask her friends to save me their coupon flyers if they weren't using them. One of here friends gave me 2 flyers. Lots of great coupons in them. I've already clipped them and have started to sort them and file them in my binder.
When we got groceries tonight we found a coupon for gum. Save $1.00 when you buy 2 multi-packs of gum. A single package of gum is a ridiculous $1.29!! The multi-packs (4) were already on sale 2/$5.00 and with the coupon we only paid $4.00 or .50 cents a pack (1). Much cheaper and it is something that we usually buy as a last minute purchase while waiting in line. I think I'll pick up some more before the sale ends and use some for my son's birthday party treat bags.
