Kingston is so big

Hi everyone! WOW!! I cannot believe with Kingston and area being so big that there are so few sc'er here. I would have thought that there would be alot more post here, alittle information about Kingston for new sc'ers. I have been trying for 3 days to get info about the coupon inserts in the paper to no luck. a Sc'er did tell me the whig and another one but no dates as to when that is. So I quess its recycle bins on thurday night. Anyway happy shopping to all!

I've been on SC for almost 2 years now and have never ran into another SC'er in my travels/trades/trains. It's nice to see more Kingston area people joining the site!

I'm sorry but I can't help you with the inserts. :( I dont live within the city limits and have never been able to figure out the insert schedule (we dont get them out in my area). I have noticed that sometimes the inserts are in The Whig paper and sometimes they are in the The Whig Flyer pack (my mom gets this delivered on Fridays in the city). I've given up trying to figure it out.

Dont know if this helps but here is the link for the SS & Red Plum flyer 2011 insert schedule (Kingston doesn't seem to follow it exactly, sometimes they are late):

Welcome to SC btw :)

Tabby, I was thinking the same thing. I was sure that the Kingston board would be very active, but it's almost like a dead zone in here! I would love to get to know more local people. :)

Hi neighbours...
I don't live in Kingston but am about an hour away. If you guys ever decide to get together to have a coupon swap...let me know. I'd do the drive to meet other SCers!!!

Hi!

I'm in Kingston too! I come to this site all the time but never realized the local tab until today. :shrug:

The Brandsaver, redplum and smartsource all come in the Whig Flyer pack (not the actual whig paper) Its delivered to everyone in Kingston city limits free (minus Queen's university area to my knowledge).

Hope this helps!:)

Whereabouts are you? I don't live in Kingston either, about 1/2 an hour away or so. A meetup with others would be great!!

Oh, you are a ways out there then. :) My grandmother used to live in a little town near there called Phillipsville. I don't even know if it's still there or not. It was a one street town, literally. :)

It's still there. My in-laws lived there for awhile. It is literally a one street town. It's between Delta and Elgin. Nice countryside there!

Hey :)
I'm also in kingston. PM me if any of you want to exchange facebook/email!
FYI: I got the smartsource insert today in the Free Whig Standard Homes Real Estate paper that comes every Friday.
I also got the Red Plum insert from the other free paper (already through that out, forget what it was) but I recall it had an image of a lawn on the front (very green).
I hope that helps!! Let me know if you want to chat!

No time for me to shop unfortunately, busy getting our house ready to sell. All done with country living and ready to move back into the city. I seriously can't wait to get flyer inserts with COUPONS again. lol :)

I don't have a car, so I miss out on a lot of the deals at Walmart and the west end. If any Kingston SCers want a shopping buddy to kick in for gas, I'm game. I don't work outside the home, so my schedule is pretty flexible.
