Fabulous Finds

Well, I can't say that I did as well as Cheryl on my shopping trip, but I think I still did well! I went to Shoppers Drug Mart today, and although I don't think they always have great sales, I scored well today! Coupons + Great Sales = Happy Savings in My Wallet! Here's what I got.
-Herbal Essences hair product on sale for $1.88, but used $1.00 off coupon, so $0.88.
-Arm & Hammer Toothpaste on sale for $1.79, but used $1.00 off coupon, so $0.79.
-Satin Care Shave Gel on sale for $2.99, but used $2.00 off coupon, so $0.99.
-Electrasol PowerTab Dishwasher Detergent on sale for $3.49, but used $3.50 off coupon, so made $0.01!
I gave the detergent to mom, but kept the other stuff for myself. Also, Lays chips were on sale, and although I didn't have a coupon for that, it was still a good price - $1.88 for a bag of chips. There was a limit of 4 and then they were $1.99 a bag. I bought 3 bags for mom - she's going to pay me back, though:) and then I also bought her 2L of chocolate milk for $3.00.
Although it often seems that our neighbours south get the better deals, there are great deals to be found here too! Thanks to a website I look at, I snatched these up! Boy was it fun!

Woohoo!

So, my landlord called today to let me know that someone has rented our apartment starting today!!! That means that we will no longer have to pay rent:) Oh I am so happy! We did have to pay for May, but other than that, we're good to go for the summer. Yay for getting money back!
Happy Monday!
