All set for BBQ season....and then some...

We are now the proud owners of 58 bottles of Bullseye BBQ sauce. Yes, 58. I know what is running through your heads right now... That horrible "hoarder" word. Not true. We BBQ for most of the summer, which means alot of sauce will be used. Also, we usually have 3-4 large events where a fair amount of people come over for said BBQ. Also, family, friends and neighbours enjoy it too. And with the BOGO Free coupons, and the 3/$4.98 sale at Sobeys, you can't go wrong with $0.83 per bottle, when stores have charged upwards of $4.00 per bottle... Also picked up 24 Shiriff Dr. Oetker Pudding/Pie Filling mixes, 20 Mousses, 4 Creme Caramel, and 8 Mug Cake mixes. They come in handy for a quick dessert!

Am off to Walmart to get more of the Resolve Laundry Stain Remover tomorrow. It works out free with the $2 insert coupons from the weekend, and with all that BBQ sauce future spillage, we will definitely need it!

What deals have you been shopping for lately? I am on the hunt lately for toilet paper and paper towels! Will post more tomorrow when the sales flyers come! Happy clipping y'all!

April 17, 2012-What's Happening

Am off to Shoppers Drug Mart today for their bonus 20x the Shoppers Optimum points event! Planning to pick up milk, toilet paper, Lady Speed Stick antiperspirant, Depends for my Grandma, Mission Impossible 4 Bluray, and some other odds and ends. Actually have quite a few things to pick up, so the hubby is coming to help--I'm sure he's amused! Just love my points, that's all!

With the BOGO free coupon from Websaver, or with the $0.50 off coupons found on tearpads in store, you can get Dr. Oetker Shirriff Mousse at Sobeys for $0.50. Not a bad deal! Assorted varieties available. Picked up a stash, as they are good to have on hand for a quick sweet treat!


Off to take Liam to school, then drag the hubby to Shoppers Drug Mart! Happy clipping and saving y'all!

April 15, 2012--What's Happening

A few good deals this week, haven't checked out all the flyers yet.

Staples has Lexar Class 10 Memory cards on sale this week. Class 10 is amazing for high quality video capture! The 8GB is on for $9.99, the 16GB is on for $14.99 and the 32GB is on for $24.99. Amazing prices, especially if you bring in the ad (printed online or paper copy) to BestBuy and price match. They will also give you 10% of the difference in price off your bill, and if you are a reward zone member, then you can collect points! I picked up a 16GB one for the hubby for his new camera---maybe that will get him working on my videos!



With the amount of BOGO Free coupons out there for Bullseye BBQ sauce, it's best to find the lowest price and stock up. There were coupons in this weekends Smartsource insert, as well as online on the Smartsource Website

Sobey's has their Bullseye BBQ sauce on for 3/$4.98, or $1.66 per bottle. You have to buy 3 bottles to get the sale price, but if you use 3 of the coupons, you can get 6 bottles for $4.98, or $0.83 bottle. With a price like that, you will want to BBQ every day!

There are a few $1.50 off Bluewater products out there, and if you have one, head to Sobey's. This week, they have assorted varieties, including the Simply Bake, on for $4.98. After coupon, it is $3.48, and you also get a free 1kg bag of Signal (store brand) frozen veggies (assorted varieties). Not too bad!


Will keep y'all posted if I see anything more. Looking to do a mass coupon trade event in the next few weeks. Will keep you posted!

Need More Shopper's Optimum Points?

For all of you who missed out on yesterdays 20x the points event at Shoppers Drug Mart, never fear, another one is near! They are offering another one this Tuesday! Simply print the coupon from this link and shop til you drop!

Deals & Steals--How I saved $280 on bedding...

Have been doing a few shopping trips this past week, trying to work out my grocery budget and replenish stock. I am always on the hunt for insane bargains--with or without coupons.

Superstore is usually my go-to for clearance items, as you know from a trip I did last year. I went there with a list, a few coupons, and was planning on getting in and out fairly quickly. Did a wander, and found an amazing deal!
I bought 4 of these queen sized bedding sets. The staff member working in that section advised me that they are a final sale, as some of them are incomplete. Didn't put me off, as I wanted them for the duvets. The sets were all complete, which included a queen sized duvet, 2 pillow shams, a bed skirt, and 3 throw pillows. Regular price for each set? $80. I paid? $7.94. Making that $320 worth of bedding for a mere $31.76!!! Over 90% savings!

Safeway Trip #1
I tend to find some great deals at Safeway. Whether it be with coupons, or sales, or clearance, there is always something. On this trip, I spent $56.03, but saved $66.67! A 55% savings! The trip included:
-Hormel Bacon Bits $3.98 (Sale ) -$0.50 Tearpad = $3.48
-Nesquik Syrup $6.79 -$1 Printable WUB 4L milk =$5.79
-11x Baby Food $9.79
-5lb Robin Hood Flour $4.99 (sale price)-$1 tearpad =$3.99
-4x Kraft Dressing $14.64 -- BOGO sale =$7.32
-2x Red Rose Tea 144pk $9.98 (sale) - BOGO websaver coupon= $4.99 (Awesome deal!!!)
-2x Sunny Delight $9.16  - FPCx2 =FREE!! (Paid deposits)
-4x Cheecha Snacks $10.00 total (sale)-FPCx4=$FREE
-6x Energy Drinks $19.74 -B2G1 free sale =$13.16
-Minigo Yogurt $3.36 (sale) - $0.50 mailout coupon=$2.86 + $0.75 coupon for next time!
-4L 2% milk $4.69 (helped save $1 off Nesquik)
-Softsoap Body Wash $3.99 (sale) - $1 magazine coupon =$2.99

Safeway Trip #2--clearance!!!

-4x Huggies $64.00 (sale price) -50% clearance stickers =$32.00
-Huge Stuffed Pork Roast $22.00 - 50% clearance sticker =$11.00
Total paid: $44.55 Total saved: $60.60 with club card and clearance! 59% savings!

And the pull ups are only used on an as needed basis, so they will last quite awhile. The hubby was super excited about the roast---the thing is huge! Definitely a treat for us!


So, this week has been great! I saved about $480 total, and got some much needed items off of my grocery list. And kept my money where it belongs--in my pocket!

Be sure to check out Calgary CityTV Breakfast Television this Monday at 7:52am to catch me live!And keep an eye out here and on Facebook for some amazing giveaways coming soon! Happy clipping!
