Save on 3 P&G Products that Provide the Best Value for Your Dollar

May 26, 2016 by Kathryn 186 Comments

When it comes to getting the best value for my money, sometimes the cheapest product isn’t always the best. That value brand of floor cleaner for less than a dollar might seem like the best choice, but if it can’t cut through dirt and mud as well, then I’m going to use more to get jobs done. One of the reasons I’m such a fan of P&G products is because I know how much effort goes into making those products more effective. And that means bigger savings in the long run! Wondering what P&G products are especially worth the extra cost? After many years of testing every product under the sun and trying absolutely everything to save a little extra money, these are three of the P&G products that I’ve found are always worth the extra cost, and why:

Tide Laundry Detergent

A few years ago I visited the Proctor & Gamble Headquarters in Cincinnati and had the chance to tour the fabric care facility. After seeing the amount of work that went into research and development, I understood exactly why Tide out-cleans competitors. The deep-down clean isn’t something that just happens through chance. Fabric fibres are examined at a microscopic level to confirm how well the formula removes dirt and grime…while also protecting those fibres so clothes last longer. No wonder Tide is able to remove everything from grass stains to blood to chocolate!

While it does cost more, it saves me in the long run by preserving my clothes. And with P&G Printable coupons, you can save $1 on your purchase of Tide! [Read more…]

Save Time and Money Cleaning Your Car, Home and Yard with P&G Printable Coupons

May 6, 2016 by Kathryn 29 Comments

Spring cleaning is one of those yearly events that I always used to put off as long as possible. But now, living with a man that not only loves a clean house but also works hard to keep it that way, I’ve had no choice but to embrace the cleaning lifestyle and make spring cleaning a priority. Luckily, I’ve learned quite a few tricks for making spring cleaning easier, faster, and even affordable! Getting ready to do some cleaning of your own? Here are some step-by-step tips for getting your car, yard and closet ready for summer!

Cleaning the Car

Start by taking off your winter tires and getting an oil change so that your car is ready for summer fun. Don’t forget to also check the levels of your brake fluid, antifreeze, transmission fluid and washer fluid while you’re at it!
Next, spray the car exterior to remove dirt and salt from slushy winter roads. Salt and other snow-melting chemicals can do some serious damage to metal if left on too long, so make sure to wash that exterior thoroughly!
Finally, get the interior sparkling! Vacuum floors and seats, using an upholstery brush attachment if possible, and then spray the fabric with Febreze fabric refresher to remove unpleasant winter odours and leave your interior looking and smelling brand new! Right now, save $0.75 on Febreze with P&G Everyday Printable Coupons!

Get Natural Baby and Child Bedding for a Great Price at the Dream Designs Baby & Kids Healthy Sleep Month Event

April 8, 2016 by Kathryn 5 Comments

When it comes to comfortable, breathable and beautiful cloth, there aren’t many fabrics that can top cotton. But did you know that growing three pounds of cotton, enough for a sheet set or a shirt and jeans, requires one pound of chemical fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides? Not only is that damaging to the environment, any residual chemical residue left in the cotton could be damaging to a person’s health too!

Luckily, there are plenty of great natural and chemical-free alternatives to purchasing conventional cotton these days and here in Canada, Dream Designs is a great place to find them! This fabulous store has been providing natural fabric home products to Canadians since 1981 and its products are stylish, comfortable and earth-friendly.

Enjoy Sweet Dreams Risk-Free with a Novosbed Memory Foam Mattress

February 2, 2016 by Kathryn 34 Comments

Growing up in a household that didn’t have a lot of extra money, I was raised with the mentality that cheaper is always better. But as an adult, I realized that some purchases just shouldn’t be budget purchases. Shoes, skincare and, above all else, a comfortable mattress, are always worth spending a little more.

Luckily, getting a great night’s sleep doesn’t have to cost a fortune, as I learned when I had the chance to review the Novosbed mattress. I used a memory foam mattress for the first time about fifteen years ago and loved it for many years. When I moved in with my fiance, I switched to his traditional spring mattress with a pillow top. It was comfortable, but I missed the way the foam had perfectly contoured to my body. So when I had the chance to review the queen-sized Novosbed mattress with Medium firmness, I leaped at the chance.

Novosbed prides itself on offering the ultimate bed-in-a-box experience and seeing how compactly it’s packaged really is impressive. The mattress arrived at the door in a box that was heavy, but no higher than about three feet. My fiance and I carried it upstairs together without a problem and then opened the box and cut the plastic off the mattress. Immediately it started to expand and within about four hours, it was a full-sized plush mattress. I couldn’t wait to sleep on it that night and see how I liked it. [Read more…]

With so many holiday celebrations taking place in the next few weeks, getting stocked up on essentials for the home is a must. And with help from RetailMeNot.ca, grabbing everything to create the perfect party has never been more affordable!

Recently, RetailMeNot.ca challenged me to see how much I could save on my non-gift holiday purchases by using its website for my shopping. With a $250 Visa gift card in hand, I headed to the website and started planning to grab the items I needed most. First on my list was plates and cups for my holiday table. And RetailMeNot was ready to help!

I searched party supplies and found tons of great coupon codes for some of my favourite stores. Since I love shopping locally, I headed to Party Depot Canada first to grab some festive plates and other accessories. While the company didn’t have an exclusive Christmas theme, I created my own by combining Red Polka Dot and Green Polka Dot tableware. The finished result was so festive! Then I added a coupon code from RetailMeNot to save $13 off the regular shipping cost! [Read more…]
