I went through the shoes, rubber boots and sandals for my kids. I now know what fits or will fit soon. I also know who needs what. I posted a few more pairs for sale, now that I know they are too small.

I sold another $20 in baby clothes today. Another lady wants to buy stuff too, whenever she shows up. I’m picking up a good set of soccer shin guards for our son for $8. Hr still has his from last year, but these ones might work better. We are hoping to sign him up for soccer for May-June. Hopefully 2wks of swimming lessons in July.

I went to Sobeys for the $17.99 sale on diapers. I picked up one box, but there were no more on the shelf and I was rushing to a friend's house for dinner and didn't stop to ask if they had any more. I tried to PM yesterday at RCSS and they said they only PM Loblaws for diapers, no exceptions. This morning, I tried to PM at FreshCo and they said the size 3 diapers in the 104 count are regularly $29.99 and Sobeys can't possibly be selling it for $17.99.

I have a box in my laundry room that says otherwise, but it doesn't indicate the count or the UPC on the receipt. Maybe I should have taken a photo? It seems the diaper companies now only carry two sizes in the boxes and they're rolled out in all the stores. However, unless you buy the exact box as shown in the photo, they can't PM. I'm beginning to think I should have purchased the exact diapers in the photo, then taken it in for an exchange when they can scan both and see the exact pricing in their store.

I'm so annoyed as I feel like I've wasted so much gas to buy diapers that I didn't actually get! Arrrgghh!

Morning! Sunny day here today. So looking forward to the long weekend next weekend!

Tonight- Tons of laundry needs to be done. Didn't feel well last night so didn't do any.

I cooked pork chops in the slow cooker overnight so that is dinner for the others. I have chicken thawed in fridge to cook up tonight for me. Will top with cherry tomatoes sliced and sautéed in garlic with feta. Yum!!

I have a pick up scheduled for tonight. Time to start filling that summer fun jar

Today’s new CO51 offer is 25c back on broccoli. I submitted my Walmart receipt from earlier in the week. I also submitted my Sobeys receipt for 25c back on sour cream, which was yesterday’s offer.

@coupon girl I’m sorry to hear that it is the 5yr anniversary of your mom’s passing. May 31 will be 1yr since my grandma left us. Anniversaries can be hard. I’ll make sure to talk to my Dad. He was the only one there when she passed. We were fortunate that all of her children were there in her last days.

thank you angela -yes she told me when she was home "I wont be here for that baby "since my son told her when she was in hospital that they were having a baby they were only 2 months pregnant with Ashlyn at the time but it was news she wanted to hear before her operation he had thought as it would give her hope ,she also said to me you buy that baby something nice -well I haven't stopped and Ashlyn is 4 -plus she is not a child that looks for things from her nana either when my son /wife took her to Disney on ice her friend got a 35.00 wand from her grandparents just because she asked and they said yes -Ashlyn thought it was great they were going to harveys after the show (my son actually used a coupon too)

dear Sebastian was sick and my daughter had to take the day off work yesterday ,he actually slept 4 hours ,maybe he needed it and he is fine today maybe it was a reaction from his 18 month polio etc needle ,yesterday when we went shopping cara cried in the mall and in the car -she is a fussy baby my son said wow she is a bit harder than Ashlyn was ,but they are choosing to only have the 2 girls

-oh and kerig has free shipping today with a code plus 2.00 off 24 pkgs or higher with a code -I decided I love the laura secord hot chocolate so I ordered some as I don't drink coffee.

@coupon girl : I'm sorry to hear of your mom's passing. A big hug to you on the anniversary.

Gave the vending machine the "bump" today and successfully dislodged a Twix bar for a co-worker who would have otherwise lost her $1.25. She ended up losing $0.25 on a second bar and I told her to request a refund by leaving a message for the owner.

Hopefully I can get some tidying in tonight as the kitchen desperately needs it. Maybe I can get all the laundry folded while Coronation Street is on. Hopefully the little ones will stay asleep.

I've never had to save my receipts for a week before! I will have to root through the recycling bin before DH grabs it tonight. I think I did buy a head of broccoli on Saturday.
