Lil SCer wearing her SmartCanucks Member Card Proudly (mommy made her shirt)!...Her shopping cart full of FREE Motrin and Glade!…and her bathtub full of VENUS, FUSION and BIC!...and surrounded by PToH (Pink Triangles of Happiness)!
While on mat leave my pay was cut in half and we knew we had to cut corners somewhere. My DH introduced me to SC and I’ve been hooked ever since! We now go coupon hunting and shopping pretty much every weekend, and don’t spend too much money but still have fun doing something together! We have been able to buy “food” either on sale, discounted and normally with a coupon attached, and learned many cost saving tips from other SCer’s. In addition, as many generous SCers, we plan to pack a box or two of goods to send to many of my less fortunate family in the Philippines, as my parents often will send boxes of goods during Christmas.
***Visit my album to see more pic of this photoshoot and a list of some of the AWESOME finds!..For example, the many finds of PToH = Pink Triangles of Happiness (normally found at RCSS/Loblaws-25% or 50% off)…taking these pics has inspired me to run a contest…so stayed tuned for a contest near you!
