I just wanted to say a quick thank you to all the blog readers and for the great support we’ve been receiving via the Suggest A Deal Form! I’m signed up literally with oodles and oodles of mailing lists but obviously don’t know all the deals in Canada the minute they are released. This is where the Suggest A Deal Fom comes in! Boo and I are very impressed with the effort our faithful readers have been putting in of letting us know about the hottest deals first and for this we’d like to say Thank you very much! You help and support is really appreciated.
Keep it up Canada!
*the form is in the middle of the blog if you scroll down a bit*
Yorkdale mall has to be one of my top 5 favourite malls. The washrooms are so nice I could probably live in them haha! On August 26th Victoria’s Secret is having their grand opening and one of their angels Adriana Lima will be there for a meet and greet and signing autographs from 1:30-3:30pm. Personally in the picture above she scares me. Theres something strange about her eyes. Maybe it’s just a bad picture.
I just ran across a post on Smart Canucks about the Old Navy site being updated! Sure enough shipping will start to Canada on August 23rd! How exciting! I have my fingers crossed that shipping will be reasonably priced.

Well ladies and gents this is my 500th blog post! It’s been a fun couple of years blogging for Smart Canucks and working with Boo. We’ve become good friends over the past few years and I’ve loved the opportunity to bring great savings and freebies to fellow Canadians.
Walking down memory lane in my list of blogs I wanted to share a few (or recap) some of my favourite posts.
To celebrate my 500th post a lucky reader gets to buy me a COACH purse! Haha just kidding! To celebrate one person thats left a comment will randomly be chosen to receive a $20 Amazon.ca e gift certificate. Winner will be announced sometime this Friday. Enter only once, Canada only, age of majority only, valid emails only.
Thanks for being a wonderful audience Canada! Heres to another 500!
Okay clearly we love Old Navy here at Smart Canucks … I mean their deals are just fabulous … but the one thing that was always missing was shipping to Canada.
And now coming in AUGUST they will finally be letting us Canadians purchase from their website!
I am ecstatic and really hoping for some fair and reasonable shipping & handling costs.
Please check your email, you have until Monday June 21 11pm to contact me.
* A new winner was drawn because the original winner did not contact me in the time frame specified, and unfortunately chose to use a bogus email to enter with.
McDonald’s in the United States first recalled Shrek glasses and now Canadian McDonald’s have followed. The recall is because of the cadmium in the paint. No word yet as to if there will be a refund for the $1.99 that consumers paid for these limited edition glasses but it is best that you stop using yours right away. I was sorry to read this as I thought they would be great to collect.
You are going to want to get in on this pre-lauch! P&G has added a new dimension to their already amazing saving and sample offers. Now you can sign up for a new site they are calling BrandVoice where you will receive special offers and samples that you can test drive and then give your opinion on. Sounds like a great opportunity to try some great new products and then spread the word about them. Here’s the premise:
Try It: Get selected to receive an offer or coupon and test drive great products…… Talk About It: Post a product review, trade honest opinions and tips about P&G products with other people….. Share It: Spread the word with family and friends…
I’m sorry I haven’t been blogging as much recently since I’ve had loads of school work to do but I should be done with school forever very soon and I’ll be able to dedicate way more time to SmartCanucks 😀
I already have some very exciting new stuff planned and ready for the blog. Expect loads of gifts and prizes, as well as new and interesting articles and more deals analysis! You should see major improvement to the blog over the next few weeks and we’ll be going full throttle heading into the fall.
I’m also looking for creative writers who can write fun and entertaining articles (not necessarily about deals) and make the blog more entertaining and enjoyable to read. If you think you have the special skills to write appealing blog posts let me know. This is a paid position although it’s a very very minimal amount. You can reach me at smartcanucks [at] gmail d0t com. Let me know why you’d do a great job if you were to become a creative writer on SmartCanucks 😀
We are not going to dwell on the fact that I’ve lost some faith in humanity over the craze of these Twilight movies lol, but tonight is the release of New Moon Twilight. Stores like Blockbuster are staying open until 2am for all the vampires out there to be the first ones to pick up their copy of New Moon. While your in line for the release why not pop over to Toys R Us and pick up some Twilight dolls on sale, buy Jacob and get Edward or Bella half price! Made by Mattel. They look cute but I’m a bit dissapointed they don’t sparkle.
Will you be lining up tonight to get the movie? Or wait until daylight and buy it tommorow? Or perhaps you belong to the small united group that doesn’t care about Twilight. Either way comments are welcomed.
