Superstore is your best bet. Don't buy too many N size, the baby will grow out of N size quick!

Unfortunately I am buying the diapers for my dog as he’s getting older and has been having accidents. Thank you though

McDonald's Coupons are out. From September 1st to October 4th.

https://www4.mcdonalds.ca/coupons/im...r_09012020.pdf


Codes work at Kiosks, so no limit.

Sad that Summer Drink days are coming to an end. It almost didn't happen, thanks to Covid.

Yup, about time. But, the offers in that section have an expiry of 6 days. I guess they just renew every week?

Also, what the hell is with the Raptors? Defend the North, ffs, so MG1 can keep getting free fries, gulolol.

Lose is okay as long as they get the required tres' but keep losing and they'll be out of the playoffs. /free fries.


That's about all I cares about the NBA.

A&W has any sized coffee for $1

yup they renew every week. should be the same as last time they had it in the app. i think back in april/may

MG1 09-02-2020 12:08 PM

That's great. I hate having to go into the link and having to put in province and all that other bull shit. Plus, mobile ordering is a lot nicer. I even have orders saved in siri (although it rarely works with promos).

BTW, Free Root Beer at A&W. Use code: RB9235

Anyone haggled anything at visions lately?

Check your email for $5 eBay coupon code. I used it to get a reusable face mask.

MG1 09-05-2020 04:07 PM

Free fries with any purchase at Wendy's using their app. Large size to boot. I just got 99¢ Frosty to go with the fries. Went to McD's to get Dollar Drink Days (still on).

kms takes amex? I still remember the days they kept promoting to pay debit or cash because credit kills retailers.

Yeah, I remember those signs at the counters. I guess they realized not taking credit kills retailers................

Like literally, killing you because you gotta handle all the dirty cash.

I've spent quite a few pretty pennies at retailers that I wouldn't have otherwise stepped foot in because of the AMEX Shop Small Promo.
Best deal is usually to get close to $10 purchase as possible, but not always prudent and you figure hey theres a nice discount and wham you've just spent $20

MG1 09-06-2020 04:40 AM

Believe me you, on deals like this I'm not spending more than I have to. Like 5, 10 dolla off meat at Costco. I buy the smallest size package to get best bang for buck, because it's not off the per pound/kg of product.

Funny thing with this promo is, I didn't know about it until the $5.00 credits started showing up on my AMEX statements. And what's with Zwilling shop? That's not small and local, is it? I wAnder if you get credit more than once at different locations. I just happen to buy something at the Abbotsford KMS a few weeks ago. What if I purchase something at the Coquitlam location. Hmmmmm............ I have no real reason to go to KMS. Too many tools, lol. Such a tool whore der, I am.

It could be because they're actually franchises, so actually structured as a small business selling under the banner of a large brand. I'm not complaining

MG1 09-14-2020 03:44 AM

Well, the American Express Small Shop promo is over as of the 13th, but I got one more in before the deadline. I wasn't even expecting it. Mogu on Commercial Drive takes AMEX. I just checked my account and to my surprise, I received a 5 dollar credit.

There was no sign on the door or windows indicating they accept American Express. I could have used my Costco Mastercard or my Amazon Mastercard to get 3 - 5% cash back, but used my AMEX, for some reason. Maybe in the back of my mind I was hoping for the promo. Anyway, good food and discount = win win.

MG1 09-21-2020 02:46 PM

At Aberdeen Mall. There’s a Zwilling warehouse sale going on. Up to 80% off. They have some Miyabi knives. Knife sets, Staub, Ballarini, etc.

I didn’t know they had a store here. Perhaps a temporary location just for the sale. Anyway, now I’m gonna be stuck in rush hour traffic.

I believe its a pop-up warehouse sale. I passed by numerous times but the line-ups have been insanely long... Anything good?

MG1 09-22-2020 06:43 PM

Well, if you've been wanting a Staub dutch oven, this it the time to get it. I saw this amazing Miyabi knife that was half price. Didn't look like B stock. I didn't purchase it, because it was just too damn expensive. It was gorgeous. I went back today and got it. Broke down, I did.

Regular $400.00 for $200.00. All the knives I have are run of there mill cheap, can't even cut your ass crack, type. Okay, maybe not. I have a few Zwilling four star knives. Anyway, this is what I purchased.

https://www.zwilling.com/ca/miyabi-8...481-241-0.html

It is crazy sharp. I really had to be careful holding it the first time. After slicing through paper with little to no sound, I knew this was a fantastic buy. The Spark Damascus finish is very nice. I think I will just put it in a display case of something, because now I have to learn how to sharpen the darn thing if I use it, gulolol.

They had everything from pots and pans to nose hair trimmers and make up things. Ballarini Italian cookware. Zwilling knife sets, etc. They had their low end International brand, as well as, Miyabi, although limited styles. Double walled glass sets looked nice. I always wanted to try their can opener and got one of those. Not impressed. I guess I'll have to get used to it. Yeah, got the nose/ear trimmer, hee hee. It even works on old man wire like hairs.

Going around noon is best time. I only waited 15 minutes to get in today, about half an hour yesterday at around 3:00 pm.


Oh, forgot. They keep their Miyabi behind the counter and you have to ask to see them.

I really, really wanted a Miyabi Nakiri knife, but they were not available.

Allen and Wright's Mama burger for $2.50. It says grass fed.... that's nice, but is it anti-biotic and whoremoan free?

$2.50 not bad. Although not that long ago it was same price - two mamas for $5.00. Now, if a Teen Burger was $2.50, I wouldn't care if it had melamine in it...... said no one. It's Chai Nah, Chyeeee Na........

Amazon Prime Day Returns on October 13 and 14 in Canada

Amazon has officially unveiled the dates for Prime Day 2020, as their annual shopping event will take place this year on October 13 and 14.


Amazon Prime Day 2020 will take place on October 13 and 14.
Originally launched in 2015, Amazon Prime Day is a global shopping event with deals available exclusively for Amazon Prime members. Prime Day typically takes place in July, but the popular event was delayed this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Prime Day 2020 will start on Tuesday, October 13 at 3:00 AM ET with over one million deals across almost all product categories until Wednesday, October 14. Here's a short breakdown of Amazon Prime and a few details from previous Prime Day events in Canada.

What's Amazon Prime?

Amazon Prime is a service that grants free shipping with no minimum and access to other perks like Prime Video, exclusive discounts at Whole Foods and more. Subscriptions are available on monthly or annual terms and free 30-day trials are available – all subscription levels will have access to Prime Day deals.

Amazon Prime 30-day trial - free for first-time members
Amazon Prime monthly subscription - $7.99 per month
Amazon Prime annual subscription - $79.99 per year
Is Amazon Prime worth it?

The most popular benefit of Prime is free shipping, including same-day delivery in some regions, but Prime members also get services including Prime Music, Prime Video and Prime Reading with access to a library of streaming music, movies and books (respectively) – click here to read our overview of what else Amazon Prime offers in Canada.

What's Prime Day?

Prime Day is Amazon's worldwide shopping event held exclusively for Prime members. Over the past five years, it's quickly grown to become the #3 biggest shopping event on RedFlagDeals after Black Friday and Boxing Day. Here's a look at the top deals from previous Prime Day events to give you an idea of what was available.

2015 – 50% off all Huggies diapers, PlayStation 4 Batman: Arkham Knight Bundle for $449.99, Kindle e-reader for $49.00
2016 – 35% off all AmazonBasics products, Instant Pot DUO60 Cooker for $94.99, Crucial 750GB SATA SSD for $179.99

2019 – Fire TV Stick 4K for $44.99, Crucial 2TB SATA SSD for $182.99, PlayStation 4 Spider-Man Bundle for $299.99
What's the deal?

Prime Day deals are a mystery until the event starts, but Amazon usually releases a sneak peek before the event starts. In recent years, it's been a near-certainty that you'll find discounts on first-party devices like Echo speakers, Fire tablets and Ring home security, along with annual staples like Instant Pot cookers.

Look for more Prime Day updates on RedFlagDeals and don't forget to visit on October 13 and 14 – we'll have the best coverage of all Prime Day deals in Canada throughout the event.
