https://media.istockphoto.com/id/159...c7Xk5ZBJApkwU=
About the one of two things in March I'm excited about (yard waste collection resumes in Hamilton next week-WOOHOO)! The other thing is Easter chocolate treats.
Thank you @harbie for starting the thread!!! :) Wow time sure fly by ...already March....march 7 it is my father birthday...I will celebrate it the week end and he will go with his familly to a nice restaurant.:)
Good Morning,
Happy March & Happy Wednesday, we have hit the halfway point in the week.
I woke up this morning at 4:45 and probably should have just gotten up but I decided to stay in bed until my alarm went off at 5. I swear the moment my alarm went off my bed got more comfortable and I did not want to get up, but work calls.
The new flyers have been posted, I have just looked at the cover pages but it does look like there are some deals to be had.
Plus I think I spoke too soon about Costco when I was looking at the hidden sales last night I see they have one of Mom's vitamins and allergy pills on sale so looks like a trip to Costco will be needed. We need to stock up on Allergy Pills for the summer. It is moments like this I wish Costco was closer so I could just run in.
Happy Wednesday Everyone
Good Morning!
My work week is almost over :) Just have the 2 days to get through and then it is early start to fun!
Dinner last night was fend for yourself. Cereal and crap. Ugh. Will make something good tonight.
Have a fantastic day!
*************Dont forgot to save yours 4 pc offers**************
Up at 6.30 a.m to be at sons for 7.00 a.m to drop girls off at school at 9.00(cutbacks i guess as they have them in the before program but one or 2 days a month there is no staff).
Put away the girls clothing that was in dryer and started a new load for them .
Then asked hubby to take me to sobeys on the way home to get luncheon meat and a few items
smoked turkey meat (old sign was up so she gave it to me for sale price)$2.73 for 6 slices
(2) mccains french fries 3.99-100 pts and 250 pts one was personal one offer was instore=$1.73 each
plus scooped a bag of chocolate pretzels rang up 4.99 cashier said that is the price usually,i said do you mind if i check cause i wouldnt pay 4.99.I think it was cheaper yes it was 4.49 =so free for me.plus other items .
Grapes were 2.48 a pound (really nice too)3.48
spent $60 got 400 scene points.
PC MC added 42,200 Pc points to my account. I think they made an error because I rarely used that card the past month. Maybe there was a promo I wasn't aware of?
Maybe you bought gift cards and the points came2-4 weeks later? Or some massive shopping scored you scads of points? RCSS and Loblaws seem to have had lots of PC Opt pts offers in flyers this yearQuote:

Took a break from my books and did 2 loads of laundry and hang up to dry
Dinner is another easy one,puff pastry pot pie cheddar brocoli chicken..very handy ...I should had bought more when in sale!!! with macaroni salad and gouda cheese.!!!
Have a wonderful evening and night!!! :)
I feel asleep on the couch from 2.15 til 4.00 p.m .I must have needed that nap !
I watched The Mandalorian S03E01
Good Morning and Happy Thursday!
Last night was a lazy night so tonight after work I need to get some stuff done! I had to use the hand towel to dry off with after my shower today.
I know there is a load of towels in the dryer that need to be put away and another load washed!
So the plan is laundry, clean the kitchen. clean out the fridge and deal with the leftovers. Pack for girls night away tomorrow. We are leaving early in the morning so we can enjoy the pool/hot tub etc before we go out for a nice dinner and our 90's show :) I also have a pedicure booked in the afternoon at the spa at the hotel that will be a nice treat.
Let's get this work day over with!!
Have to contact Danone today regarding the printable coupon they send when you purchase any silk product and submit the receipt. For some reason it printed in French :shrug:. I clicked the English link but it printed in French so it’s useless to me and also I sent 2 receipts and only got 1 coupon. That should be fun :yikes:.
Checking the flyers quickly and will do a Costco return and small shop.
PC pts- interesting ones this week.
7000 pts wus $70 on fresh beef
40,000 pts when you shop 4 times and spend minimum $50 each time.
My PC pts are at approx $300 between my 2 cards. I think my plan is to save them till hopefully May 24 bbq season sales. Then hopefully stock up on burgers etc (we still have so much steak in the freezer and now I know to watch for clearance on these after the big sales)
.
I had similarly weird offers like 5000 PCO when u spend 50.00 on chicken.I am not sure what’s on my list this week. At least 1 trip to Metro for the air miles offer of 2 packages of bacon for 6.00 and there is an offer of 25 bonus air miles when you use 10.00 in miles.Quote:

Good morning,
Yesterday’s Costco run ended up with a $25 refund but followed by a $130 shop. Oh well, it is 100% stuff we needed and use. Not one piece will be wasted.
Have to deal with our insurance company today :yikes:. Wish me luck.
@harbie sorry for you/anyone needing to deal with Insurance Companies.It is certainly not for the faint of heart (best be end of my rant!..)
Got some shopping done yesterday,used up my freebie Siggi's Yogurt coupon that I snagged from No Frills at Christmas.Heads up for anyone that also snagged freebie/discounted coupons at the same time, they expire at the end of this month.My other deal was strawberries for a couple of bucks which is a nice treat in the winter.Only problem is that I got strawberry drippings on my white jacket while gawking to see if they were ripe/too ripe/dead.Fortunately it came out with OxiClean
(indeed spelt with an "i").
Today not as exciting as that,but did manage to get my walk in plus a bit, as not a fan of the snow coming so going to be indoor recess tomorrow.No matter always something to do around this place so I wont be making edible paper flowers!
Whatever you find yourself up to this weekend stay safe and warm! Blessings my friends!
Good evening,wow must have been very tired to had woke up early but it was worthed so I wanted to take a power nap for 30 minutes,putted the alarm and regardless I sleep 2 hours lol...must need it...Before I napped I did my small grocery shopping list for Sunday.And decided we have plenty of things to use so I will not go to public harvest Saturday morning save the $$$ for the small grocery.I will not get all I want to acccomplish in my books done but trying to do as much as I can and I am capable.
Have a good evening and night :)
Good Morning Everyone,
Ugh, I did not sleep well last night. I had trouble falling asleep and then I woke up wide awake at 1 am and my body thought it was morning. When I woke up again at 4:30 I decided to just get up and start my day.
Looks like we got a good amount of snow last night and it just started snowing again. Not even going to think about this until later.
It has been an insane week, we had our AGM for work Wednesday and Thursday. Wednesday was a long day as we had dinner as a group after the meeting. It was nice to see everyone in person again, talk to people and discuss what is going on within the company.
I am feeling very behind, I have a ton of work to still catch up on, as well my house needs some attention. Next week is going to be insane again so I need to make sure we are prepped and ready for the week. We have tons of fresh produce I need to prep plus I want to make some grab-and-eat foods for the week.
Happy Saturday Everyone
Good morning everyone . It will be an indoors day lots of snow . I have not been spending too much trying to used up what we have so only fresh fruits and veggies.
Snow!! Shoveled four times last night up to 11 pm then up a 6 to do ours, side neighbour, and elderly gent across the street.
Time for a fry up!!
Morning just shovelled the front porch off for hubby ,we got about 5 or 6 inches .I got it off the top of the car.I couldnt get my groceries yesterday because i had a stomach bug for 2 days .
Resting now before i do the back steps ,we get cara today around 3.30 today overnight.
Groceries can wait til monday or tuesday .
Feeling bad for those with snow.
They were calling for hail last night and some more snow here so off I went to cover my baby plants but woke up to NOTHING! Standing in the cold dark rain last night to protect them for nothing. Oh well, guess I can’t complain.
Sorry you had such a lousy sleep @SassyAshley . Hope it get better.
That was very thoughtful of you @GoodBoy for helping your neighbours especially an older gentleman.
@coupon girl hope you’re feeling better and no more bugs for you.
I’m helping an older neighbour lady clean her floors and appliances today but I’m a bit anxious. She is really sweet but there seems to be some mental issues arising. I mean she thinks the people below her and over can hear her conversations sometimes. Unfortunately she doesn’t have family here (only 1 son and he’s 5hours away and they don’t really talk). Hopefully today won’t be too bad. FYI the health dept has been in contact with her and the RCMP have been by but sadly not much can be done. They can’t force someone into a home. Like I said, sometimes it’s not too bad so hopefully today is one of those days. I’m trying to be helpful but unfortunately it weighs on my own mental state and I don’t need more stress so this might have to be my last time :shrug:. I need to set up healthy boundaries.
Going to check some flyers but not needing much except for some veggies maybe…….
Have a great Saturday everyone
Harbie so nice of you to help an older neighbour.
I looked out and everyone on our crescent was helping with their snow blowers,helped the 80 yr old that had a stroke yrs ago and others that shouldnt be shovelling .My daughter called me from toronto and said "mom dont shovel as you can have a heart attack"(bad family history and on 2 meds here)
It will fun to build a snowman with cara (age 5) when she comes this afternoon.
