    About a month ago the biggest mall in my town (Intercity mall) had a promo where you could trade in any gift cards ($5 or more) for the equal value of Intercity Gift Cards. The traded gift cards were all donated to United Way, and the Intercity gift cards can be used at almost any store in the mall (with the exception of food court restaurants). I traded 2x $25 Gap Gift cards, 1x $8.26 Banana Republic Gift card (all of which I got for FREE with airmiles), and 1x $16.95 Future Shop Gift Card which I also got for FREE. Total $75.21

    HMV (Mall)
    I wasn't originally planning on going here, but I had to buy a gift for someone who is hard to buy for.

    $29.99 Anger Management (tv series) DVD
    $3 HMV rewards card
    Total=$37.28, OOP=$0

    Ricki's (Mall)
    They were having a sale B1G1 50% off all regular priced tops. Clearance items are also 40% off the lowest ticketed price.

    $39.50 Summer Blouse
    $35.50 Summer Knit Top 50% off - $17.75

    Plus, I received an instant coupon for $5 for signing up for texts

    Reg. $84.75 Sale=$59.03
    Used $37.93 GC
    OOP=$21.10

    I saved the best for last....

    Petsmart

    I had to separate this into 2 transactions because I originally miscalculated the overage (I have no idea how I did that) and the till messed up and the whole transaction disappeared, how embarrasing).

    Transaction#1

    14x Cesar Softies dog treats
    Reg. $2.99 each Sale $1.49 - 14x $2.00 Manufacturer coupons (insert)=$7.14 overage
    2x Easter plush dog toys
    Reg. $2.99 each Sale B1G1 FREE $1.50 each
    1x Carob flavoured Licorice Dog Treats $6.99

    Reg. $61.96 OOP=$6.85 ($4.01 taxes)
    Before taxes 95% savings
    After taxes 89% savings

    Transaction #2

    11x Cesar Softies dog treats
    Reg. $2.99 each Sale. $1.49 - 11x $2.00 manufacturer coupons =$5.61 overage
    2x Recyclable bags with keychain pouch
    Reg. $4.99 each Clearance $3.97

    Reg. $48.44
    OOP=$5.50 ($3.71 taxes)

    Before taxes 94% savings
    After taxes 88% savings

    Total Shopping Trip
    $232.43

    OOP
    $33.45

    Total Savings=86%

    I went to petsmart to get the cesar softies. I did get 8, but at $1.65. I didn't realize it until I got home. I picked up some nice chicken stew for 0.47 in the can to make up the overage. They had no extra flyers to price match at wm. I brought my ipad to wm and price matched. Thanks very much for posting my dog loves the cesar treats.
