Had great cashiers at No Frills and Walmart over the weekend!
Hi Everyone,
First off I am feeling so much more better and was able to go shopping this past weekend! So happy to be back to my normal, crazy save a dollar diva self. (Husband though is getting what I had *sigh*) Hopefully he will not have it as bad as I did.
Well I went to my local No Frills over the weekend to get some deals and goodies. I was looking for the Ziploc sandwich bags (40). Which were on sale for $0.97! I had a 1.00 off coupon so this would make them FREE! I ran over like I always do (I looked like a kid running to see what they got for Christmas) and then of course I got disappointed as there were none left! I asked one of the cashiers on the floor if they had any left and she said whatever was there on the shelf was all they had. :( I was disappointed, like I got clothes instead of toys on Christmas, but I thought you can't win them all.
So me and my dear husband finished our shopping and go to the cashier to ring up our purchases. The cashier who is ringing us out is the same cashier who I talked to earlier and she had a smile on her face and handed me what else... MY ZIPLOC BAGS! I looked at her in shock and said how did you find them? She told me a customer decided last minute they didn't want them and kept them aside for me!!!! I was so grateful! :)
I love my No Frills because their cashiers are always super nice! So I got my Ziploc bags for FREE because of someones kindness! So If you have that nice cashier, you better keep being nice to them lol.
After No Frills husband and I went to Walmart. Now I have had some bad cashier moments at Walmart so when I do find some great cashiers I try and keep to the same ones. Well I found a new cashier lol! She was great, friendly, and did all my price matching with ease. She also took all my coupons and just looked at them for like 10 seconds lol. It was the fastest I ever got out of Walmart LOL.
So I got my health back and had a great shopping experience at the same time! :)

Coupon Mondays!!!! Save 1.00 Off ExtendBar
Hi Everyone,
I have decided that every Monday I will post a coupon that I think is great for people to use and enjoy! :)

Save 1.00 Off ExtendBar. Now what is ExtendBar?

By doing so, ExtendBar helps to naturally control hunger, minimize diabetes symptoms, prevent low blood sugar and provide a continuous source of energy for even the most strenuous activities.

So Sick! But Found Out Way to Save on Medication
Hi Everyone,
First off, I would like to say sorry for not posting as much these past couple of days. I have been really sick and have been fighting off the worst cold I have had in years! I do feel a bit better but still have a long way to go!
During the weekend DH and I went to Walmart to get some over the counter medication for me. I looked like a coupon zombie walking into Walmart., and what killed me the most is I saw deals all over the place, but didn't even have the energy to get them (You know am really sick when I ignore deals lol) I usually get Advil or Tyonle to help battle my colds and of course I did have coupons for both :). Sick not stupid LOL. But out of curiosity my husband just wanted to see the different between "The Good Brand" and the "No Name Brand" medications as I like to call them. I told him I was not about to go and change medication that has worked for me in the past. But after looking through the medications he came to the realisation that they both had the same amounts of medication in them???? Only difference... the price????
I thought he was reading the labels wrong (Or being really cheap on medication, which was not at the right time!) But I looked it over and he was right??? Now I am not a doctor (I can not even tell left from right some days) and if you have a brand of over the counter medication that works for you stick with it, or of course talk to your doctor (Sound like a commercial) but if that is the case why is one brand more $$$$ than the other? We do have the name brand medications out there that we like to use just like the name brand clothes, restaurants, products that every person likes to use, wear or eat. So I guess we do the same for over the counter medication. Now I did buy what I usually buy to help battle my cold (With the coupon I had it came to the same price as the "No Name Brand" medication anyways). But the next time I do have a cold I am going to try and see if the "No Name Brand" medication does the same??? If it does then the price is of course a big difference.
Health of course is nothing to cut cost on, if you need it to get well you get it. BUT if what you need to get well is the same and cost less why not get the other brand? Get better and at the same time save money?
Here are two great websites to get coupons on certain products to help you fight any cold.
http://www.livingwell.ca/ (Various Coupons)
http://www.advil.ca/ (Just click on any of their products and you can print a 2.00 off coupon)
Now I do have suggestions for products that I find have been working for me: For a sore throat I recommend Bentasil Cough and Throat Lozenges. They are awesome and work right away! Plus they are soft and chewy and taste great!
For a really bad cold I recommend Extra Strength TYLENOL® Complete Cold, Cough & Flu. It helps with:
Nasal Congestion
Aches, Pains & Chills
Fever
Sore Throat Pain
Dry Cough
Headache
Thins & Loosens Mucus (Daytime only)
Relieves Cough with Phlegm (Daytime only)
Runny Nose & Sneezing (Nighttime only)
So if your dealing with a really bad cold like me hope you get better soon and I hope these suggestions help! And if not...Your Lucky!!! stay away and save yourselves :).

Should you just go out for great deals??? Even If you don't really need the products?
Hi Everyone,
Well I have been looking through this weeks flyer's and I must say some really good deals this week. :) Like I usually do I have already started to make my list and get my coupons ready to go (And of course ask for backup aka my husband) But my question is this to you all?? Do I go out just for the great deals even if I don't need the items right now? Or do I wait for the next time they go on sale?
I did a big shopping last week, due to Easter and also because I don't want to be shopping every week. (As much as I love to shop, I do have a life outside shopping LOL, I know it's hard to believe) But alot of times my husband will say to me, do you really need it now? Or is it worth the gas and the time to go and get certain items just because they are on sale?? Or I will get excited because a certain item is on sale or marked down and I will make him get up early so I can get it. (Yes I am that type of person LOL) My husband fully supports my couponing and deals and helps me, but I think he would sometimes like to just sleep in and watch his soccer in peace LOL.
My answer is this:
If I can get the product for more than 60% off or FREE then it is worth my time and gas when I don't plan on going shopping at all. Even if I don't need certain items or products at the moment I will just put them in my stock pile (which by the way is getting bigger!) and when I need to use the item or product I have it already. So then I don't have to go looking for it when I need it or even at some points might have to pay full price for it, if the item is not on sale or I don't have a coupon for it at that time.
So some might think I am wasting time now, but to me I am saving time in the long run and of course saving money.I think every couponer/saver is different. Like I have said before everyone has a different life style and will go the extra mile to get the deals on the products they use and love.
:) So If you love a certain product and it is one sale and you have a coupon for it, or you can get the item for FREE??? My advice? You go for it LOL And if you need back up give me a call LOL.

Easter Was A Success! But I Lost My Mozzarella Balls!
Hello Everyone!
Well I hope you all had a great Easter and that the Easter Bunny brought you alot of treats! (He brought me some, even though I sent him those nasty emails lol) So I ended up getting everything I needed. I manage to spend only 25.00 per kid! and got a bunch of stuff for them! I know it may seem like alot per kid, but for me that is awesome! They liked their gifts and I loved the money My husband and I saved. :)
But, I have a rant to get off my chest! I went to No Frills on Saturday (Should have stayed home, as it was packed!) and I just wanted to get some Maxwell House coffee with was on sale and some mozzarella balls, which were also on sale for $0.97!. (Can you tell we are a Italian/Portuguese house hold lol)
So I got my coffee (God knows I need it!) and then I go over to get the mozzarella balls. I see there are only 4 left, so I went over to grab the last few and then it hit me (seriously I got hit), some crazy, huge, old lady pushes me right out of the way!!!! I flew like I was hit by a quarter back on a football feld. After I came to realise what just happened, she was gone and so were my mozzarella balls! I saw her running away and the only thing I could yell at her was "THANKS HAPPY EASTER TO YOU TO!" Like I could have come up with a better come back than that!
GRRRRR Like I know we all fight for the best deals but come on!!!! People need to keep their hands to themselves. Hey if someone gets there before you, take it and move on. Not push them out of the way and almost make them break a hip!
Man, next time I am going to were some keen pads and elbow pads! Man shopping is crazy out there. But no worries I will be ready for the next time. I have a free perfume sample in my bag and I am not afraid to use it lol.
Thanks for reading and happy shopping! or should I say safe shopping?

Stock Pile for Toys and Gifts Next On My List
Hi Everyone,
I know we all have our stock piles out there. Some big, small, huge and some....well words can not express some of them out there LOL. (It's like they have there own store!) Which is awesome! So hoping to get my stock pile to that point. :)
But what some of us seem to forget is having a stock pile for toys and gifts. Now I know a lot of us have birthdays, anniversary's, weddings or the occasional retirement party we all have to attended (Wish I was retiring) and then we run around trying to find the perfect gift at the best price.
Well I have decided to start doing a stock pile for gifts and toys. I usually do this with Christmas decor stuff but I think it would be great as well to have certain things in stock so I am not running out all over the place.
After Easter is over (Still need to complete that mission) I am going to start on my next mission to find great toys and gifts at a discount price. I will look at my calender for this year and see what events are happening and start looking for great deals :)
Who knows? I might have my Christmas shopping done by June LOL. :) Now I just have to hide the gifts from my Husband LOL.

Got Some Easter Deals...But My Back Up Caught a Bug!
Hello Everyone,
Well went shopping this weekend and got some nice deals for Easter. I got two cute little outfits for the two girls I am buying for and got two great shirts for the 12 year old going on 20. Also picked up some cute Eatsre bags to put their gifts in. Now I was going to go back out there on Sunday, with list in hand a ready to go...then...it happen...my back up, aka my husband got sick :(. (Tried calling the Easter Bunny to see if he would cover my husband, but I think he is ignoring my calls?)
Now, as much as I love the deals, I love my husband more! So all Sunday I was my husbands personal nurse. He does the same for me when I am really sick and I could not leave him at home. :)
So I am going to have to go out this week again and get my last minute Easter deals. Which might work out to my advantage, because this week flyers might have some better deals than what they had last week.
So we will see, but in the end, life happens and sometimes you have to put down the list, the coupons and flyers and focus on the important matters in life...FAMILY.:)
I will let you all know this week how I do after I finish my shopping!
Happy Shopping and thanks for reading!
