The switch is almost done - I will start posting directly on the other site soon so please come to http://www.savemoneyinwinnipeg.com and subscribe so you don't miss out on anything! As for the contest giveaway, feel free to enter here or there, I'll pick a winner from both.

It's a day to celebrate good friends so I'm having another coupon giveaway. First of all to celebrate the start of my new site, check it out at http://www.savemoneyinwinnipeg.com - a big thanks to one great friend for setting that up for me. We're not done yet, it'll be up and running very soon! And doesn't it look amazing!!
And 2nd to celebrate another friend who surprised me with an amazing amount of good coupons!
So, I will share that with one lucky person - they will win over 100$ of awesome coupons - and by awesome, I mean super awesome!! Great grocery coupons, lots of everyday products like juice, cereal, yogourt, crackers etc.!! This lucky person will be able to chop their grocery bill down!
To enter, comment with a friend you want to celebrate, or something positive!
Contest open to all Canadians and will end Friday July 29th at noon!

Go to http://www.driscolls.com/email/ to get a 50 cent coupon off berries.

Kathryn had a great tip for it - It will come by email to you, you will need to install or run a coupon printer, and the coupon will give 50 cents off any Driscolls product. It gives a Canadian address for reimbursement but you may want to underline it or highlight it as there is also a US address on the coupon. They get $1.08 back.

Use promo code ONBIG20 until July 28th at Old Navy to get 20% off your purchase! Good time to do some back to school shopping!

Right now if you check out Kraft online at http://www.kraftpeanutbutter.com/en/spread-the-feeling/ and send someone a virtual hug they will donate a jar of peanut butter to Winnipeg Harvest. And on August 6th head to the Forks to get a real hug from their bears Smoothie and Crunchy for more donations too! Peanut butter is such a staple food in our house - glad to see it's this easy to get a bunch donated. And spread the word! (ha!ha!)

What does everyone do with their coupons savings? Do you reincorporate them in your budget, put them away for a rainy day, a special jar? I hadn't given it too much thought - for me it's just part of my regular shopping now. It's a great idea to put just that away - I wonder how quickly it would add up! Any tips for doing it?

Airmiles is having a contest on facebook at http://www.facebook.com/AirMilesCanada?sk=app_156633561052707 where you can win a bonus card worth 5000 airmiles!! Very easy and quick to enter!

What did everyone plant this year? What have you found to be your biggest money saver? I was surprised by ours, it's zucchini. I'm not the biggest fan of it, but it grows so easily and quickly! It's versatile, can use it in a meal and also in baking - we made awesome zucchini walnut muffins with our special ingredient - holy crap cereal. They were so good, my daughter still asks for one every day even though we finished them a week ago - time to bake some more! Our lettuce is growing well, but I find I get kind of tired of salads. We had a great 1st batch of radishes but since then the rest have failed - has anyone else heard about planting them under the right moon? My husband has been teasing me about this, but after seeing them in the garden we are thinking my great grandpa might have been right all along!!
Is anyone looking to trade or get rid of anything either? We were lucky to get rid of all of our rhubarb - but I know sometimes people get stuck with too much of one thing, always nice to share or trade.
What do you guys find goes the furthest in a garden? What do you do with the extra?
