First Coupon score for a newbie!

[paicebailey]

I have been reading the brags and have been so inspired by the Smartcanucks. I think it is amazing and exciting that these types of deals are out there. I was a bit nervous to try the coupon thing but once I did it I was so pumped! I looked online and found the printable candle, skintimate and toilet get coupons. The cashier at SDM was wonderful and didn't even charge the taxes on the coupon amounts. I found a helpful trick was to bring tape and then tape the coupons on the items so I would not forget to use them and the cashiers couldn't miss them.

I haven't couponed in years, and never like this. I plan on implementing this into my everyday shopping.

I was at Zellers...sans coupons but thanks to the link to the rebate and information that was on this site I did purchase 12 of the ice tea can packages each. I made 3 orders so I could get the 3 X $25 mastercards and the cans were on sale for 2 of the 12 can packs for $10.00. I can't wait to get them in the mail!

I also have a question for anyone who might know, I have a couple of BOGO coupons and then also have a send to mfg to get the item free coupons ie. for Pledge and for Swiffer refills, can you do a BOGO at a store and then circle the item you purchased, send to Mfg for the TRY FREE promo?

PS I hope everyone has a wonderful Holiday Monday, and I want to let you know that your site has definitely inspired me Thank you!
