A Frugal Gathering

Last night this solo parent got a treat! A night out! Where did I go? Well some of the gang from Frugal Shopper decided to meet. Now some of the women and men had met before. Some were newbies like me. We met at Yorkdale Mall at Casey’s. There we laughed, chatted and shared coupons. There were even freebies such as Pinesol, a knit washcloth, mug, note book, bag and pen. We even had giveaways thanks to the generosity of the gang. I brought home a wonderful makeup case full of Biotherm goodies. It was wonderful to meet so many that I had shared the forums with this last year. I came home feeling full and grateful for all who help me be cheap, well I mean smart.

Lifefest 2008

WOW! what a haul of freebies! Attended this years fest with my daughter Roo and we came home loaded with stuff. If you are going may I suggest going to www.lifefest.ca and doing the survey as it gets you great freebies that cant be found otherwise! It really was a fun day out for the two of us. Roo loved the Garnier dome and getting her hair done (we got some good  ideas about adding volume. Dr Scholls is giving free foot massages and they are good! Lots of food samples to keep you nourished as you go on your way. We really did have a good time and it was a cheap day out as Roo was free to get in the door as she is under 12.
