Random stuff:
Free samples of “U by Kotex”, (one pad, one liner, two tampons). Limit of two per household. I don’t think they care if they’re both for you, you don’t have to use your boyfriend’s name for the second sample. Although it would be funny if he opens the box with his name on it.
Free filter coffee April 15th @ Starbucks if you bring your own re-usable mug. Doesn’t have to be a Starbucks mug. I guess that wouldn’t look too good if they asked for just Starbucks mugs.

Get a free Venus razor just by playing a cute little game where you have to choose your shaving weapons. Do it right first, fill out your info for your freebie, then you get to play around with the answers again. Like choosing whip cream instead of shaving cream! Yum. I would give you the answers, but that’s cheating. Plus, if you get it wrong, you don’t deserve anything free.

Get free movie coupons when you buy either General Mills cereal specially marked boxes, (Cheerios, Lucky Charms, NesQuik, etc.) or Old El Paso kits (?!). Depending on what month it is, you can either get a free movie ticket, BOGO free, free popcorn/drinks, stuff like that. Do me a favour and go when you get a free ticket, not free popcorn. Instead, bring a baggie of that cereal you just bought and snack on that. Good at Cineplex. (Paramount, Scotia Theatre)

Non-free stuff (I don’t endorse five-finger discounts): Big sale at H&M, Mid-mid-season sale or something like that. Also, I noticed that the Liz Claiborne store at Promenades Cathedrale is closing shop, so they have a huge sale in the 80% range, additional 50 to sale stuff. Not my cup of tea, but poke around and you might find something. At least some generic black pants for work. I found a cute pink top. Apparently Laura clothes is buying the Canadian Liz Claibornes, and turning them into Laura’s. Again, not my cup of tea. Random fact du jour: Liz Claiborne Inc. owns a fashion dynasty, such as: Juicy Couture, Kate Spade, Lucky Jeans, and Mexx. Partnered with DKNY et al. My goodness! They’re doing well for themselves!
So enjoy some free stuff, it’s win-win for the companies and us, and if ever you’re asked to do a short online survey for a legit company then give in once in a while. If you want. They still rely on us to know what the deelio is in our modern society, otherwise before we know it they actually WILL start thinking that we shave our legs with toothpaste. And that we think geckos are adorable. And babies on roller skates. Don’t get me started!!!
Peace out
