Calgary Coupon Hunters *HEADS UP*

[Goddess in this Household]

Wondering how everyone has their binder set up? I currently just have a receipt folder thing going on which is so not working. Is there a thread on this or does anyone have some insight for a newbie?

Thanks!

I use a regular binder with dividers for different types of coupons. To hold the coupons, I use a combination of baseball card sheets (for save.ca, brandsaver, etc coupns), 4x6 photo sheets for the bigger coupons, and then some full-sized plastic holders for the coupons that are bigger than 4x6.

I don't carry it around with me, but when all the flyers come in each week I go through them and see if I have coupons that I want to use with the stuff that's on sale and plan my "coupon shopping" for the week. I make an envelope for each store, write my grocery list on that envelope, and then put the corresponding coupons in that envelope (paper clipped if there is more than one).

I was soooo tempted today! I drove past a HUGE pile of flyers. Must have been the drop off spot for the carrier - just on the side of the road. I stopped and took 1. Yes, only one. And from a bundle that had seemingly broken open. I didn't even know we got red Plum here, I just wanted to know what the sales were and if I should go out tonight or wait until tomorrow. But it was like looking at a pile money lol. But they were indeed full of Red Plum! It was the one with the Neighbors section.

i guess i wont be getting any red plums its all good

I put up a thread looking for B-a-B cpn, content as below. If anyone has for trade, pls lmk. Thanks in adv.

"Just got an email from Build-a-Bear for a FREE animal printable coupon up to $14 for this coming weekend only.

The printable cpn is good for one time use only and I have two kids. Didn't want to waste the cpn but couldn't afford to pay for another one out of pocket.

If anyone has this cpn and not planning to use it, please please PM me asap."

[MommyMelanie]

is it coming from Build a bear or someone else? I get the emails and dont see anything.

More clarification of what this printable is :

It's not a link, it's an email sent to me from B-a-B and the cpn would only work once. That is when they scan the barcode, they would take 14 dollars off and then the barcode would become invalid.

I think I got the cpn either from registering as a B-a-B reward member or becoz my kid built a bear there b4 and we put in our email address when building the bear birth certificate. <!-- / message --> <!-- edit note -->

What I have been told by flyer force is that they are provided x number of coupon inserts and the area of the city they are put into the flyers depends either on rotation or they are directed by the coupon insert company which area of the city is to receive them. So it is hit or miss if you will get them in your flyers on Thursday or not.

Anyone had trouble stacking the P and G coupons at the Beddington LD? I went shopping on Wednesday and they said I could only use 4 of the P and G coupons per purchase....so on Covergirl I could only use 4 coupons even though some were $3 off on 2, others were the 1$ off, some were from the paper brandsaver and others from the online brandsaver. They said their policy on these coupons just changed because they were 'warned.' Are other LD's doing this?

Living Social has a deal at Chianti's 17th Ave SW location today. $40 of food and non-alcoholic bev for $20 if anyone is interested. I got one for my sweetie and I to go out for dinner. When we first started dating that is where we went for lunch all the time. It's not good ON Valentines day but figured we could celebrate the day before or after lol.

Here's a link if anyone else wants to get one.

Thanks Vexmir on the heads up about Green Works laundry at Giant Tiger. My first time going to Giant Tiger here. Been there lots in Winnipeg. Got it for 4.00 sale minus 3.00 coupon. Cashier would only let me use one coupon. So I went out and came back and bought a second one at the other cashier. Silly games. Coupon stated one per purchase. Any advise on how to purchase more than one detergent at a time would be appreciated.
