Dec 1-2 Mega/Bonus Redemption shopping lists

[dutchmama]

So Bogo would make them each 5.99 correct?

Yep! As far as I know! The $11.99 seemed to be regular shelf price, so 2 packs for $11.99.

I'm doing 2 $250 and 1 $100 redemptions. One is all gifts for family and friends, the $100 one is stocking stuffers and here is my grocery one: (some prices are estimates):

Oh, batteries! I knew I was forgetting something.

I was doing an Amazon.com order this morning and found MH dolls there for $15 so I ordered that instead. Freed up $30 on my list that I'll spend on batteries.

do i get the $25 GC if i redeem for one of the selected Cannon camera ?

[Poirot]

WHY is spending free money so hard!?! Thought I had a list, now debating doing 2 redemptions instead of one. Just really wish that Pampers were on sale instead of Huggies.

Optimum points aren't free it took a lot of spending money to get all those points.

They are free to me..i spent alot of money at other stores and didn't get anything in return. I also don't buy overpriced items so to me they are free.

I agree, I don't buy overpriced items to get points, shop mostly on bonus point days and so this is free to me as well. I was tempted to buy the biotherm to get the points but couldn't justify it as I don't need it yet.

i second this question I am buying a camera for my DS to take on his honour band trip to Costa Rica

I am only redeeming once for a waterproof camera, memory card, rechargeable batteries, shampoo, toothpaste and food.
My shoppers in Barrie had two hard drvies for sale on a very mini display behind the cashier if someone is looking for that kind of thing.

Happy Couponing!

Tell me about your waterproof camera you're thinking of. I might go that route too!

ok, this i agree....we are frugal shoppers and try to reduce as much as we can, don't we ?

so yes, Free money .....

but for some of us living in small town ...that means small SDM with only few products we can earn bonus points on
so, it'S a hard gymnastic to earn the points we need for redemptions

+1, i'm interested too

Free to me as well. I bought stuff I would have bought at other stores. Actually now that I optimize the program, I follow the flyers alot more carefully and tend to set my price points pretty low (Dove 2/$5; Tide $4.99; dish soap $0.99, bacon $3.49-$2.99, etc.). Slowly I've moved more and more of my grocery store items (Independent and Food Basics) to SDM.

[Mia001]

my SDM is moovnig tomorrow to a brand new building and more surface.....they told me 'you will like it there' they will have more stuff.....i'm looking forward visiting them

Torontogal - try the sdm at lower jarvis/esplanade by SLMkt (where they're building that annoying condo that makes traffic a disaster). I stopped in there quickly today for a couple of things. They had a lot of Beauty Boutique things (including the display case with watches/purses etc). Lots of cosmetics (high end and regular), good sized grocery section (although none of the produce/freezer bins that I notice in some stores). I don't remember the electronics section for games etc but I also had a squirmy sick baby with me so I was in a rush. The cashier was also super efficient/easy & had no issues with me using $ off coupons, bp coupons, the $10 off coupon & gave me the $10 card. Now if only I'd remembered to give her my 16,000bp wus$100 coupons. I was so mad at myself!!!

Idea for an 18-20 year old in the $20 mark...they have lots of great gift sets. I picked up one of the essie duos (with glass nail file) today for $17.99. I think the orly mini sets are overpriced IMO but there are so many little sets that are great. I think there's also a sale on headphones this wknd? Good for boys or girls.
