Giant Tiger!

So I was just at their flyer and saw the crest pro-health toothpaste for 1.68$ less your .50 save.ca spn thats 1.18$ a tube.. and its really good toothpaste :) Thats a steal since I just spent 2.50 with a cpn on saturday... *sigh*

duh!

First off, I have to pay my respect and condolences to my step-family. My two step-brothers who shall be referred to by M and S, tragically lost their Mother Jackie Hiemstra on February 21, 2009. She is watching her family now in a safe place. I cannot imagine the pain that M and S are feeling right now, I just want them to be okay.

Walmart has a good sale on this weekend, some of the flyer contents are listed here and another great thread listed here and it lists which coupons to use at what store on what item!

So far this weekend, I'll be heading to walmart. Grabbin' up 4 pks. of 24-roll Royal TP (96 rolls !! ) for $12! And then some Scott Paper towels they are 2/$5 and I have $1. off cpns for them, so most likely I'll grab 3 pks. and spend $9! We go through a lot of paper towels its crazy! And this sale is just in time, and I'm running low!

Thank goodness I cleaned out my water closet, I have room to store the craziness! 5 black garbege bags later, and 3 large toys donated to my local St. Vincent du Paul.

Now go. run. Hug your mamas, hug your children. Life is short and we should live for today.


Happy kids and smiling lunches..

Lunch gets boring. . . Big time! I'm bored of making the same requests.. so sometimes to change it up, I get creative..




The kids love it, and I'm not repeating things a bazillion times like "sit and eat!" Grated cheese is a "treat" I guess in little kid land, eating itty bitty foods are fun! I also make food on a stick.. lol Cheese cubes, meat cut in cubes, grapes, melon etc.. they enjoy that too! Sandwiches make for awesome ears, and eyes, hot dogs work for smiles!

Just a little Deal I snagged today..

I had to get a prescription filled today, so I took the kids out for a quick 45 min quick trip! Ofcourse, I stopped in Zellers and grabbed a few things:


3x Dawn $3.00
2x crayons $4.38
8x Campbells soup (kids were hungry 1 missing ) 5.36$
1x fusion power razor 10.97
Total: 23.71
used:
3x .50 dawn cpns
1x 10.00 fusion razor from a trade
-2.40 SPC %
Total cpns/spc: $13.90

Total Spent before taxes: 9.81 (11.89 incl)

I wish I had some campbells coupons then I could have saved a lot more, so not much a brag, but still good considering if none of it was on sale, it would have cost: 18.73 before taxes!

My man and I had an awesome haul this weekend when I did groceries! I managed to get $263.78 worth of groceries (on sale, before cpns) for $117.33 after cpns! It was amazing, a few free things, groups of 4 items (Quaker snacks) for 1.68 with tax!!! Oasis 100% juice for .99! Which was AWESOME as it is, had a few .75c off cpns too. Stocked the cabinets, fridge and freezer FULL!!!!!!!!!

Positive.

I was talking with someone in my family I haven't spoken to in a while. Its nice to throw in a fuck or two, say jesus christ without saying "sorry.." we have an odd relationship, on and off. She loves me. I know she does. I love her so much. She's been there for me in so many ways. When I was a young girl, I often thought how much I wanted to be like her. Once I changed into big girl panties, and made my very.own.descisions. things went sour. I quickly realized how I am so thankful I'm not like her.

But she is wise. She is smart and beautiful. She taught me there are no boys colours, girls can wear jeans, and once you pay your own rent, Skittles, ice cream and a nice glass of white wine is allowed w.h.e.n.e.v.e.r. you want!! She gave comfort when needed, made you feel like shit when needed, and she always gives good advice.

The recent advise was about thinking positive. I know my mama has said many times all the wonderful things that can come from thinking positive. But this person spoke in a different way, a different tone, and I hung up the phone knowing, positive thinking brings positive behavior. It will also push those negative people out of the way because they can't stand anything but. So positive I shall be.

Supah'mom shall be positive, I shall be me.

Be who you are. Think positive. I promise.. Good things will happen.
