    Started my day off at McDonald's... got an egg mcmuffin, mmm. Won a free regular cone with Monopoly pieces! Then found 4 more pieces throughout the day!


    RECYCLE BIN WALK
    - Maclean's mag
    - Chatelaine mag (August 2010)
    - (2) Smart Source
    - form/code to get a $5 GAS CARD


    Got in on the Facebook deal with Edible Arrangments and spent $10 on a box of chocolate covered strawberries! Regular $25!!! Shared it with my co-workers!


    FIELDS
    Used a coupon for 10% off my purchase...

    Smuckers (clearance $1.50), minus 10%, $1 = $0.35
    banana peppers (clearance $1.25), minus 10% = $1.13

    Total = $1.48


    SAFEWAY
    Got a Quarter from a cart = $0.25 MADE

    minigo (clearance $1.74), minus $0.50, ($0.25 found) = $0.99

    Cashier was pretty firm on the coupon being applied to the original price (before the clearanced 50% off)... I was like, "The coupon should be applied to the actual price I am paying for the product!"... she did end up taking another $0.25 off (which was the difference her way made)... but hmm, who taught her that?! I never heard that before...


    CO-OP
    Canope melba round (reg $3.19, manager's special) = $0.99 (no coupon, but I was hungry, lol)
    BUT... found 2 Quarters in the soup aisle... SO,

    Total OOP = $0.49!!!


    REAL CANADIAN SUPERSTORE
    Colgate kids toothpaste (sale) = $0.99
    Tinkerbell 'Happy Birthday' banner (clearance) = $2
    Hamburger Helper *w/FPC WUB HH* (sale) = $1.66

    Total w/tax = $4.80... used gift card from PC Points = FREE!!

    Got home from work to see no flyers in my mailbox... off to the recycle bin (where I had to get my Sunday paper!) And what do I see... a stack of flyers in the big 'ol green bin! I get some for myself... then gather all the Canadian Tire scratch cards! Along with 1 from work, I now have 10!!!

    Way to go on the canadian tire ones. How do you get them out of the recycle bins? Ours are like a big blue box thing with a window that you throw them in.


    I cant believe people Throw away $5!

    The one in my condo area is a green bin.... it's boxy and small-ish (but still a challanger to reach the bottom if it's nearly empty). it's not a huge container thing. there is another one, a green one.. much bigger... which is for cardboard.

    Man I gotta move out there! You get such good stuff out of your bins! I went out today and was lucky to get 2 scratch cards!!! That was all I found out of about 50 houses that I scrounged in. I did check one apartment building but it was such a huge mishmash of papers etc, it was impossible to go through!

    Nice haul though! Now you got me craving HH!!! Of course then I could get the FPC off of it and go get something FREE!!!!

    P.S. You changed your dang picture! Now I can't recognize your posts!
    Is it baseball season yet?
