This past week was such a long week, a lot of stress and tension at work. I guess that happens when it is an all female staff. It got so bad on Thursday that I almost walked out of the office. Friday afternoon, I had a headache when I went home.
I decided to go to the bank, got some cash and went shopping. I did not really have anything in mind but I got good deal on toiletries. I had watched an episode of the show "Extreme Couponing" and was amazed at the amount of saving the men and women get doing or saving coupons. I don't know if the stores here do that. One lady shopped almost $1200.00 worth and after she gave her coupons, only paid $5.79. That was awesome!!!!
Anyway, I went to Rexall Drug and got all kinds of stuff and they were all on sale, which I think was great as well and also got Aeroplan points. Next on to Sobey's to get groceries and I have their coupon which they email to me. If I spend $35 or more I get 350 Aeroplan points. I spent $39.00 so in total I got 389 Aeroplan points. Much as I did not want to gas up because of the hike in prices, I had to and on to Esso I went, gassed up and got 45 more Aeroplan points.
I feel that this is my small way of "couponing" not that extreme but it makes me feel good, saved about 20% and added points to my Aeroplan account. I have enough points to go Business class to Asia or Europe twice....so whichever continent, I will be on my way soon.
