Bath and Body Works Canada has customized some super saving deals for their Canadian shoppers, the first of which being the FREE item, valued up to $15, with any purchase of $10 or more. All you have to do is print out this coupon, and shop in-store between Friday, January 9th to Sunday, January 11th with the limit of using one coupon per person.

Meeting the $10 minimum shouldn’t be too difficult either, since there are a bunch of really good deals going on during the semi-annual sale at Bath and Body Works.

The first of these deals, apart from the freebie coupon, is stocking up on the best-selling hand soaps as you can get 10 for just $30. And if hand soaps aren’t your thing, then Bath and Body has plenty more to choose from, including:

• Signature Vanillas Collection Body Care for just $3
• select 3-wick candles for just $10.50
• select 3-wick candles for just $12.50
• select wallflower fragrance bulbs just $3 each
• slippers for $5
• select items in the clearance 50% off
• select items in the clearance 75% off

These deals will all be available in store for a limited time during the semi-annual sale, but the coupon will expire on this Sunday so it’d be best to take advantage of the sale items this weekend and then cash in on your free coupon offer.

I received a nice surprise the other morning when I was browsing through my e-mails to discover that Starbucks Canada will be offering a freebie for the winter rewards program, if you’re already a registered card member already that is. The rewards program, as the e-mail describes, will give you a free $4 eGift card when you buy 3 or more espresso drinks with your registered card between January 6th-January 12th.

$4 from Starbucks is enough to buy a couple of coffees, or one of those handcrafted espressos you would have purchased earlier to qualify for the card (as there is no restriction on what size the beverage has to be).

Your eGift card will be sent to you via e-mail by January 26th in which more directions pertaining to how the card can be used will be attached.

This offer may be an exclusive one that may only be available to certain card holders, but if you are a registered member of the Starbucks Reward program I’d suggest checking your e-mail just to be safe!

This Saturday, January 10th and Sunday, January 11th when you’re doing your weekend errands, you should perhaps opt to do some of your weekly shopping at Shoppers Drug Mart Canada (or at least spend a minimum of $75 there on some of your weekly necessities) for if you do you will receive 2 free movie tickets for any Cineplex theatre.

The only restrictions on the products you can buy to meet your minimum qualifying spend of $75 is that the products cannot be:

• prescription purchases
• products with codeine
• insulin and select insulin products
• tobacco products
• stamps
• passport photos
• lottery tickets
• event tickets, transit tickets and passes
• electronic gift cards and prepaid phone cards

The ticket value of these movie passes from Shoppers Drug Mart is $25, which is always so shocking to hear as who doesn’t remember the time when movies were just $5?? If you do qualify to cash in on these freebies, I’d suggest taking yourself and a friend to see one of the year’s best movies, The Imitation Game. Already nominated for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor and Best Motion Picture for the Golden Globes, The Imitation Game is possibly the best movie you could choose to spend your free movies passes on.

You have until January 19th, 2015 to enter to win the David’s Tea TeaFF contest.

The coupon lists the availability of all the retailers that this coupon can be used at, but for the most part it can be used just about anywhere.

Clarins Canada has a sweet little January cheer up for your dry, winter skin blues where when you purchase any product from Clarins Canada online, no minimum spend amount required, you will receive 5 FREE samples of your choice from the specified selection. There is no code required for these samples either, all you have to do is add something to your cart and then upon checkout you will be prompted to add the 5 qualifying samples of your choosing.

Initially my goal was to add $75 worth of product to my cart so that I qualified for free-shipping, but since the standard shipping rate before $75 is just $7 I opted to find the most modestly priced beauty or skin care product that was still relevant to my needs. For me, I found the UV PLUS HP Day Screen High Protection Emulsion SPF 40 to be just the product I needed since it was just $41 and would provide day long protection from the sun that I could still wear under my makeup without the gross oily feeling. It’s important to protect your skin from UV rays year round, and a lot of times people forget that the sun can still penetrate your skin when temperatures drop well below zero.

Once I added this product to my cart, I was able to qualify for the 5 free samples, of which there are many ways to customize to your own specific needs. Depending on the product, you could receive a sample of either 5ml, 0.17 fl. oz., or 0.07 fl. oz.

This freebie offer from Clarins will only be available to Canadian shoppers and will end on January 9th, 2015.

Chick Advisor have a new product review club opportunity available for Batiste dry shampoo.

Apply to become one of 200 Canadians to get a bottle of original Batiste dry shampoo to freshen up your hair between washes.  They are picking people on January 18th, so get your application in soon and increase your chances of being picked by using hashtag #BatisteBeautifulHair on social media.

Note that this is the original version and not the version for dark hair.  If you have very dark hair and spray a lot in one areas, you may notice white particles in your hair.  I love Batiste’s dry shampoo, it smells great and is not sticky like some other dry shampoos. The starch based “no water needed” formula contains fine particles of pure, natural rice starch powder, enabling Batiste Dry Shampoo to effectively coat the hair shaft and allow for targeted oil and grease absorption at the root.   A quick burst boosts body and revitalizes hair, leaving it looking and feeling clean and fresh.

Click here to apply for this sampling opportunity and make sure to let us know if you are picked.
