good evening lan, sorry for the late reply! all's been well with everyone here, thanks so much for asking. still walking roxie day & night, in all weather conditions, brrr! can't wait to see how she reacts to the snow.

she absolutely loves those healthy defense treats. it's great because they're intended for joint health and loaded with glucosamine and she has to take that supplement anyway, so it's a really healthy treat for her. if you're absolutely sure you have no other use for the FPC and don't want to put it up for trade, she'd love it! are there any coupons you're looking for lately?

your welcome I hope we all get the pts Dec. 7th. I need the pts for the Dec. redemtion. take care

Mine didn't either. I think they will show on Dec. 7th in case you do both days. I kept my receipt just in case. It does show on the receipt that the coupon was scanned. I spend $34 had her ring in pts. coupon then she took off my other coupons only paid $19.?? Hold on to your receipt just in case.

Hi!!! Hey! great idea! Yes, I will wait until 20X day to get the Tabu set for mom! It is a nice scent (her fav!) & has a powder, eau de toilette (lg) & a smaller bottle! It used to be around $18.95 but they said its $22.95 so still not too bad compared to other scents! lol
They only get these sets at Xmas time & my SDM was nice enough to call me when they came in!!! The ladies there are awesome!!!
Have a great week!

Hi! It was the one in Waterdown, ON on Dundas St, near Hwy 6.

morning lan, how have you been lately?

LOL! Sure was the Pine one! I cashed in $100 on bonus redemption. Got DH one of those cologne samples, a book and some Avene for my SIL. Went back today to get 1/2 price candy for stocking stuffers..and a few treats for me :D

Hi!!! Yes, I got the points for both BP coupons you sent me!!! Thanks so very very much!!! Now I have enough points to redeem $200 again soon!!!!

Here is my brag I just posted!

http://forum.smartcanucks.ca/162561-...a/#post2590795

I'm so so happy! Thanks from the bottom of my heart! Xmas is gonna be great this year!!!!

Happy Halloween!!!!

Will post my brag soon!!! Had a crazy busy weekend!!! But I got some awesome stuff at SDM ($400) & used the BP coupons!!!! Thanks again so much as I was short about 10,000 points to redeem for another $200 the next time!!!

& I came across a new booklet in the dairy section of loblaws! includes $1 off folgers, $1 smuckers jam, $1 smuckers squeeze jam, 50¢ oasis juice, $1 robin hood oatmeal, condensed milk, spreadables margarine... I'll grab some extras incase you miss it.

hey lan,

how are you? have you planned your shop attack this weekend?

sorry for the timing but I did end up finding some aveeno coupons while getting organized yesterday. the sale ends today & though you won't get double the optimum points, you can still get a good deal on them. I have two $2 off on the body lotions & one $2 off on the body wash. let me know if you want them and I can drop them off when I walk the pup this afternoon/evening. sorry I didn't dig them out sooner! they don't expire until nov 21 & jan 5.

you are officially a professional smartcanuck. have you found any canadian tire scratch cards yet? I haven't been able to check the mississauga news but that's not usually one of the flyers in there for me.

that is so, so cool, lan... any chance you want to teach me how to ride a motorcycle? I'm set on getting my license one day. can you see yourself riding here in canada? the course would probably be a breeze for you.

...then we can ride around town with saddlebags large enough to carry our brags home! we can call them... saddlebrags.

sorry for the slow replies this week; just about to respond to your PM.

hey lan, beautiful niagara sounds like a great time! glad you had a good weekend. we stayed local this weekend - took a ride on the motorcycle, visited some family & friends, barbecued, kept cozy at home here!

no smartsource for me, still being a lousy smartcanuck. whereabouts did you find yours? I wouldn't even think about finding one in a fast food restaurant. I know they're usually found in the newspaper but the last one was missing, for subscribers only, I suppose. nice grab!

incase you missed the post in the freebie section and didn't get the e-mail from P&G, you can sign up here - www.smartbeautybuys.com/survey - for a chance to be a product tester for P&G's panel. be sent full-sized products to review!

& funny you should say that about trading as I feel the EXACT same way lately.

I've admittedly been a really lousy smartcanuck this week and barely shopped, only picking up ONE bottle of greenworks @ SDM for 50¢. a pro like you inspires me, must work on my smartcanucking!

roxie's usually with me everywhere I go but wasn't when I was last there. that is so unbelievably sweet of you - yet again - to offer that FPC this way. roxie would take you as a friend for life, which she very likely will regardless! I do have two of those FPC's already so if you'd like to use it to buff up your tradelist (FPC's seem golden in the trading section), please do. I wish I had an FPC to offer your way but I'm lacking a little right now and only have a small stash for personal consumption... dog treats and one pack of kotex pretty much, lol. I do have one for nescafe's taster's choice if you'd like that?

coupons, on the other hand, I have many for the taking. how about a coupon swap meet soon?

morning lan,

thanks for the well wishes to nan! she's much better thankfully. the swelling went down for the most part and she has since taken the same med without any reaction. another culprit for the allergic reaction is a plant on the windowsill which she may have mistaken for basil when cooking. it was beside the basil so an understandable mishap and complete accident. thank god it wasn't any worse. luckily she didn't consume any of it and we of course threw the stew out just incase... definitely scary stuff. we did go to home health care yesterday where nan bought her first wheelchair! I'm so happy she was finally ready for this, it's exciting to think of all she can do with us now. so if you happen to see me walking down the street with roxie & nangelina, it will be an absolute giveaway that's me.

we're going to shoppers home health care to look for a wheelchair/walker combo so that she can come walking, grocery shopping etc, with us more often. she's amazing - because her lip was so swollen she was making botox jokes at the hospital all night. her new nickname is nangelina jolie.

speaking of shoppers, whoa at your SDM haul on the weekend! good for you, that is some seriously impressive shopping. all I bought was greenworks! glad you found a coupon-friendly cashier @ pine. I wonder if that's the same one I met. I couldn't find the receipt and haven't seen her since so I'm not sure on her name but she was great.

I haven't had much time this week for shopping. those heinz beans are good though I may be a little biased because I grew up in a british household with them! I still like them though, they're in a tomato-like sauce, a comfort food. great with toast.

busy afternoon, better get going. glad you had a great thanksgiving, really hope to talk to you soon.

98% sure I saw you in SDM last night right before closing! that 2% prevented me from saying anything paired with the fact that I had had a crazy evening in the ER with my grandmother and my mum & I were there trying to settle a prescription mix-up. she's okay, thank gods, but yesterday she had an allergic reaction to something and her lip/jaw swelled up significantly. we called teleheath & the nurse on the phone went over everything, all that she had done, all her meds, etc, and then said it might be a side effect of one of her meds and that we should take her to the emergency room to be sure the swelling doesn't progress. it didn't thankfully and she's on anti-allergy meds to prevent it from worsening but it was a scare. I have some work to finish this morning and then I'm spending the afternoon with her.

Oh thanks! LOL as you can see in my pics I have a basket full of Airwicks, hehe Enjoy your coupons! Dengpao & I trade alot as we are in the same town I had her over yesterday to show her how to make the gift baskets! Here are the pics!
GreenWorks & Glade & Dove sets for mom's church door prizes!

Thanks for commenting on my stash pics...all out of reps for you!
Have a great week!

picked up a copy of snap a few days ago! it's a great picture of you! all smiles & kudos on volunteering. I was kidding about making a cameo but I've imagined the photographers for snap catching me in a candid shot... mid-yawn or something. not as flattering as yours!

how was your SDM trip? I haven't made it there yet but my list contains greenworks, satin care, colgate & oral-b for sure. some great deals all around this week; no frills has four cans of heinz beans for $1.26 with coupon (have extras if you want some), two free secret deodorants with save $5 WUB 2!

busy thanksgiving weekend here. just about to get back to cooking. not sure if you're celebrating or not but I hope you have a happy sunday of good food, good company & warmth all the same! hope to see you soon.

LOL don't tempt me. I'm trying to stay away from shoppers. I've spent way too much there this week!

That's crazy that you're on Pine!! I'm in the white building next to the shoppers!

oh wow, congrats on making the front page! that must've been a shock. I was just joking with a friend that I read that paper to see if me or anyone I know has made a cameo in it. I'll be picking one up in the next few days! does this make you a local celebrity? will you sign my copy?

aye, so close & so far on the oral-b deal. that would've been an amazing grab. there will be more though, I'm sure! I find they put some pretty great products on their clearance racks. kudos for looking on the bright side... it's money saved. I've done the same thing @ loblaw's -- run around grabbing my coupons only to find a product sold out. you should hide it in another aisle next time, mwahaha!

depending on the SDM sales on saturday, I might not be doing too much of a shop there but I'll definitely tag along. I have the feeling optimum pts get addicting, don't they?

Yeah hi thien_nga, yes I hope that's me, lol! I have not visited WTT for very long time (too busy of browsing the deals here at SC I guess, lol). Very happy to finally find a "dong bao" in this virtual Canada, and yay for our SC

so I finally made it to loblaws and found some kraft booklets! there were also a couple of product reps around giving out samples (as I find they usually do on saturday's) and the laughing cow rep was handing out $1 off ones. mmm, laughing cow cheese. also, you know those free health magazines in their healthy/organic/veggie-friendly section? it's called viva, a great health mag. there's a free whey protein powdered drink sample in them right now as well as another freebie to request (emergen-c) and some coupons.

how was your weekend, lan? had a good one here. day with the fam yesterday, today did a little shop at dixie this morning & then celebrated a birthday party at a good old fashioned bowling alley! just about to make some dinner and then have a nice relaxing eve doing absolutely nada. hope you've had a good one! is this the week we meet?

lan, that is so kind of you to grab another kraft booklet for me! thank you, thank you, thank you. the past few days have been so busy I haven't even been able to get to loblaws and check, so it really does go much appreciated! it's as if you knew I wouldn't make it.

oh man, thank goodness you weren't held responsible for that till mishap and that it was all sorted out. I can imagine how nervewracking that would be.

that rain last week seemed non-stop! incidentally roxie's up for a walk in any weather and being in an apt without a backyard, we have to take her regardless. it goes without saying I was soaked a few times last week! gorgeous now though, hope the weekend is forecast to be a good one. any plans?

I'll check that receipt & look for the SDM cashier's name. she's one I see in there quite a bit so I'll definitely take note of it next time & let you know. this one even mentioned someone else coming in with a ton of coupons and I wondered to myself if that was you!

Not a problem!

didn't make it today unfortunately, had a busy/rainy one. will make a better attempt tomorrow. how was your day today?
