-cashed out $5 paypal from PrizeZombie
-cashed out $2.22 paypal from Neobux (not on there as much but starting to use it more!)
- have $13+ in legerweb account...have to wait to hit $20 before cashing out! Hoping for new surveys soon!
-have $7+ in clixsense account...will hold off on cash out til it's $10+
- dropped off clothing at consignment shop...will check account later this month
-used $10 in airmiles cash yesterday to buy some grocery items at Metro!
- hanging on to my swagbucks til I hit the $10 level...had enough for amazon but will skip it for a different e-gc.
- a bunch of FPCs from Pepsi promo, old el paso box and Tropicana will keep us going for a few snackies and OJ

So that's what's in my wallet. Hope you're doing well and enjoying the sun!

I had over $200 in HBC points that I used up during the closing sale at my local Zellers... I got amazing deals on clothes, food, home things.... basically everything. Plus I used the extra points coupon to gain more points after I crossed a minimum purchase threshold. I'm going to miss Zellers!

I received my first $10 Esso gc from Freshpoints. I am already over 1/2 way to my next $25 Esso gc from Freshpoints. I also use the Checkout51 app.
I recently spent time contacting companies and am receiving quite a few coupons in the next two weeks. I started keeping a word doc on my computer in order to keep track and record when I receive the coupons.
I earned $40 in Amazon.ca gc from Swagbucks in March. Already cashed out for another $10 in Amazon.ca gc in April. I am saving up because we need to replace dh electric shaver.
I have $35 in Sobeys points on my card right now. Last year I saved up and had over $200 worth of points that I spent in December.
I still have lots of great coupons in my collection and many others up for trade. I try to use my FPCs at Sobeys on 10% off Tuesday because then they are worth 110% and actually help pay for your other purchases, such as milk.
We also save a lot of money because LO is exclusively BF, so no formula for us. I invested in a baby bullet and make his baby food myself.
That's all that comes to mind at the moment. Back to bed because LO is asleep again.

I cashed in 190 Air Miles and got $20 toward a purchase and also used a $3 coupon. Ended up paying less than the cost of taxes. And the 190 AM were part of the 200 AM I got doing a BMO promo last year

Cashed in $20 worth of PC points and $6.71 in gas bucks tonight! I get all my points from using my PC MasterCard at the Superstore gas station, which added up quickly!

[Shirnette]

Other free money is Wonderful.I buy everything on my PC MasterCard and give it to my husband to use as well.To rack up savings we use it for gas at Fortinos gas stn.The cashback reward amount on the receipt is then used in combination with my PC points to pay for whatever I buy at Fortinos(too bad they don't have a price match program)No Frills &Supestore.I am constantly getting MAJOR savings(eg bill is $75 but pay only $ 5 with same PC Mcrd after redeeming points. I'm currently renovating basement(hubby & friends=free labour) & making trx related to this project is HUGE as big purchases=more points faster.....wohoo

i also use my CIBC Petro MC & save $0.02 off the posted gas price(per L)when we must get gas & a Fortinos gas stn isn't nearby.I do get points with this card that I use for free carwash at Petro Canada.

let us continue to take advantage of free money

I've been away for 3 weeks and just before I went, I joined a survey site that I thought had been recommended on here. Now I can't for the life of me remember the name of it. I remember it started with L and had a g in the middle (a stylized g). Can anyone help me with the name. I know that you can't redeem your money until you reach $20 or you can donate what you earn. Sound familiar to anyone?

Made $23 in the last wk selling the boys old clothing plus got my Lysol MIR cheque today!

[SavingYourHardEarnedMoney]

Doing a happy dance! Do any of you remember the MIR back in January Save On had Buy 4 General Mills products(Jan 18-24) and get a $20 gift card for Save On foods. There were only 500 and it had to be mailed to Ontario. Well, I bought 4 boxes of Cheerios and mailed it in right after leaving the store on Jan 18.I hoped I would get it, but didn't think I would as everyone in Ontario would get there's in way sooner. Well, guess what!!! Today I got a shiny Save ON Foods gift card for $20!!! YAY!
