Gap Canada is treating shoppers to an early weekend treat, by providing you with a promo code that will take 40% off on your entire online purchase. This is being offered exclusively to online shoppers, as you will have to enter the promo code, GAPWKEND, to receive the 40% off.

This would be an excellent time to shop around the new arrivals section, as it will be some time before these styles are marked down to 40% off – most likely the end of the season. Summer styles like these leather espadrille wedges are normally sold for $74.95, but when you use your weekend treat promo code they will be the much friendlier price of $44.97.

This weekend treat promo code from Gap is just a short lived offer, as it will only be available until 11:59pm EST tonight.

Gap Canada offers free-shipping on all orders that are $50 or more.

Amazon.ca is currently selling this hot (pardon the pun) deal on the Black and Decker Dual Temperature Heat Gun, as it is now on sale for just $19.99 (regularly $62.27). The heating gun, plain and simple, performs exactly the task that it is set out to do with great ease, and that is produce heat. Most of the customers who bought this product were very satisfied with their purchase, as the gun comes with two heat settings (750 degrees and 1000 degrees) that make stripping paint, moulding plastic, or whatever else you may need direct heat for a simple task.

In comparison to other retailers that were selling the same model, the deal that Amazon.ca has on the Black and Decker Heat Gun is arguably by far the best. Walmart is selling the same model for $29.98 and since Walmart no longer offers free-shipping on all orders, you would need to fill your cart with over $30 worth of product to qualify for free-shipping. Amazon.ca offers free-shipping on orders of $25 or more, meaning you would only need to find about $5 worth of filler product to qualify for free-shipping. The Home Depot was also selling the same model, but only on their American site. They were selling it for $29.97 USD, which with the current exchange is about $35.77 CAD. Not only is this more expensive than the initial cost that Amazon offers, but it would also be shipping from the US, meaning you’ll have to pay extra for shipping, taxes and duties.

Whether you are shopping online or in-store, I’d suggest that you head on over to the Forever 21 Canada sale section, as they are currently offering an extra 30% off on already reduced styles until May 18th. To receive the discount in-store, you will simply have to pick your items out and then bring them to the cash register where an extra 30% off will be applied to your sale purchases. For online shoppers, you will have the extra step of inputing the promo code, EXTRA30, at the checkout.

While there are a number of fun summer dresses and skirts available in this sale, as there new styles being added to the mix daily, I thought this boyfriend zipper blazer would be a practical purchase that could be worn on night’s out, as well as into the fall. Usually, this zippered streamlined blazer would sell for $39.90, but after the extra 30% has been taken from the reduced price of $26.99, the blazer is just $18.89.

Pair the blazer with these high-rise seamed skinny jeans for a mock-tuxedo look, and your order total will only come to $30.09. That is because these jeans, which come in both indigo and dark denim, are currently on sale for $15.99 (regularly $23.90), meaning that with the 30% off they will only be $11.20.

Forever 21 offers free-shipping on all orders of $60 or more, but remember that you can also shop this offer in-store.

Bath and Body Works Canada has a couple of promotions going on this week that will suit your fancy whether you’re on the market for a new shower gel, or even a new scented candle. None of these offers require the use of a coupon, simply show up in-store and the promotions will be going on.

One of the promotions that you would be wise to check out sooner rather than later though is the $8.50 shower gels offer, which is ending tomorrow. You will only be able to get Signature Collection shower gels for the price of $8.50, all others will be sold for regular price.

The other in-store promotions going on at Bath and Body Works includes:

• hand soaps are 6 for $25
• or 4 for $20
• single wick candles are 3 for $25
• or 2 for $18

The Punjabi International Film Festival, which is one of the largest South Asian film festivals in North America, is being hosted in Toronto this year over the Victoria Day long weekend (from May 14th-May 18th). During this festival, you can make a request to receive a free film screening pass to almost all of the movies. This would be a fun (and cheap) option for your Friday night date night, or even if you’re looking for something inexpensive to do with a friend on one of this weekend’s lazy afternoons in.

You will be limited to two passes per request, or rather per e-mail, so if you wanted to take the whole family out (or a large group of friends) then you would need to have a couple of people from your group request free tickets.

West Jet Canada is having a sale on their summer seasonal routes to select U.S. destinations, with prices dipping as low as $281 on roundtrip tickets from Vancouver to visit the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. This seasonal sale will only be valid for new purchases made by May 20th at 11:59pm MT and that have dates of travel booked by June 24th (inclusive).

While searching for hot ticket prices in this seat sale, I was able to find a roundtrip ticket from Vancouver to San Francisco for just $282. The dates of travel were both on Tuesdays, a day of the week which I find helps to keep the prices down when you are looking for good travel deals. When I compared the price that West Jet was selling this roundtrip ticket for, from May 26th-June 2nd, I saw that it was at least $24 cheaper than the closest competing airline.

Amazon.ca has a recently updated their movies and TV shows deal section, and within this section I was able to find a rather hot deal on a masterpiece collection that will, for some of you, be a really big throwback. The deal that I speak of is the 44% markdown on, Alfred Hitchcock: The Masterpiece Collection. The box set includes 15 different movies from the critically acclaimed director and screenwriter, and will also showcase some of old Hollywood’s most talented actors and actresses that sparkled across the big screen during the Golden Age of cinema.

Of the many classics that are included in this 15-movie set, one of my personal favourites, which stars James Stewart and Grace Kelly, has been included in the collection. The film being, Rear Window, which on Rotten Tomatoes (like many of Hitchcock’s films) has received a 100% rating on the Tomatometer scale. The other films that you can anticipate to find in the collection are:

• Psycho
• North by Northwest
• Saboteur
• Shadow of a Doubt
• Rope
• Trouble With Harry
• The Man Who Knew Too Much
• Vertigo
• The Birds
• Marnie
• Tom Curtain
• Topaz
• Frenzy
• and the Family Plot

For the more modern TV viewer, you may be interested in checking out the sale that Amazon.ca has on Battlestar Galactica: The Complete Series. As of the time of this posting, there were only 10 left of these box sets, which isn’t surprising seeing as the collection normally sells for $229.99, but is now on sale for just $160.79.

If Battlestar Galactica is too sci-fi dense for you, then your preferences may lean towards a more popular culture friendly sci-fi TV series, that is Smallville. Right now, you can pick up the 7th season, and almost every other season of Smallville for that matter, for just $14.49 (regularly $49.70).

Amazon.ca offers free-shipping on all orders that are $25 or more.

If you have never printed a SmartSource coupon you will discover that any attempts to print another coupon after you have already printed two will fail. The expiry date will be a minimum of 30 days from the time of printing, generally speaking, however some coupons do have a much longer expiry. The only way to find out is to print the coupon! If someone could let us know that would be great too. 🙂

Bench Canada’s sale on men’s and women’s jackets and sweaters features deals where you can save up to 50% off on select pieces, plus, if you haven’t already signed up to receive Bench, then you can save an additional 5% off on your purchase.

Within the women’s sale, I was able to find this Nolie Zip Thru sweater for half-off the original price of $79, now just $39.50. The post-morning yoga sweater is also available in honey suckle pink, black, mint green, and white, but all of these colours are being sold for $59.99, rather than the grey sweater which is $20 cheaper.

Another great deal from the women’s sale was this Garlick II Jacket, which is on sale for just $99.99 (regularly $149). This jacket comes with thumbholes, which would make it a great piece for wearing outdoors on morning hikes or runs that are just a little too brisk to go without an extra layer, but not quite cold enough to merit a pair of gloves/mitts.

Bench Canada offers free-shipping on all orders that are $99 or more.

Chapters Indigo Canada has a number of weekly deals and sales offered each week, but what will make these deals even more enticing is that you can stack them with the Visa Checkout promotion to receive an additional 20% off on almost any of your purchases.

The only restrictions with the Visa Checkout promo is that you cannot exceed $1,000 in your purchase and you cannot use it on the following products or departments:

• Apple products and accessories
• gift cards
• Kate Spade
• LEGO
• Rosetta Stone products
• used books/music/DVDs

An example of a deal that you could use the Visa Checkout promo with, to make for some really great savings, is the Kobo Aura. Before, the 6″ eReader was selling for $129.99, but right now it is on sale for just $99.99. When you counter in the Visa Checkout 20% off, the Kobo Aura reduces to being only $80.

Other deals that you may want to check out this week at Chapters Indigo is the toy sale, which features offers that are up to 50% off their original price. If you purchase anything from this department then, and combine it with the Visa Checkout promotion, then you could be saving upwards of 60% off on select toys. For instance, this Webkinz Darling Dino is currently on sale for 49% off the original price and is now just $7.50 (was $14.95). When you apply the extra 20% off to the Webkinz Darling Dino, it is then reduced to being just $6.

And while the Fitbit Flex isn’t exactly on sale at Chapters Indigo, if you were to purchase it using the Visa Checkout promotion you would only have to pay $96 for it, though it is usually sold for $119.99. The closest price that I could find on the same Fitbit Flex was at Best Buy Canada, where they are selling it for $99.99. If you don’t have Visa Checkout, and don’t intend to get it, then you may opt to buy your Fitbit Flex from Best Buy, seeing as it is being sold at a decent price point.

Chapters Indigo will be running the Visa Checkout promotion until May 31st, and you will only be allowed one discount per paying customer – so be sure you think long and hard about your purchase before going through the checkout!

Chapters Indigo also offers free-shipping on all orders that are $25 or more.

Bath and Body Works Canada has released one of their sweet freebie coupons that will allow for you to pick up an item from the Signature Collection (a maximum value of up to $15) for free when you also make a purchase of $10 or more. This coupon will only be valid until Sunday, May 31st and you will be limited to one coupon per paying customer.

You also won’t be permitted to combine the coupon with any other coupon or promotion going on in-store, though we have heard that some stores are more flexible than others about combining in-store promotions with coupons.

Click here to print out your coupon for a free $15 Signature Collection item from Bath and Body Works Canada.

As we mentioned earlier today, Sport Chek Canada is hosting one of their semi-annual Friends and Family events where you can take 25% off on all regular price merchandise, plus an extra 10% off on already reduced styles. This event takes place both in-store and online, however, to successfully claim your discount online you will have to enter the promo code, FF0515W. Earlier we mentioned that you must use the promo code, FF0515A, which also appears to be working, but you cannot stack the two codes to receive double the savings; it’s one or the other.

When I was browsing within the running sneakers section I found the shoes I use to train with being sold at regular price for $129.99. However, after using the Friends and Family promo code, I was able to purchase New Balance Zante B running shoes for just $97.49.

Since I was saving about $33 on my shoes, I thought I could put the money I saved towards a new pair of running shorts as well. Since running shorts don’t usually sell at this price point, I decided to check out the 30% off Nike sale that Sport Chek is running right now. These Nike Full Flex 2-IN-1 Shorts at regular price are sold for $47.99, but until May 18th, they will be on sale for just $33.59. If you were to purchase them during the Friends and Family event, which ends Friday, May 15th at 6am EST, then you will only have to pay $30.23.

 Another sweet offer that will be going on at Sport Chek during the Friends and Family event is the offer of free-shipping on all orders with no minimum purchase required. For your order to qualify for free-shipping, like the Friends and Family promo code, you must complete your order by 6am EST on Friday, May 15th.

To receive this discount, you must enter the promo code SAVE30, and you will only have 5 hours to shop this one-day flash-sale.

Summer season is kicking off today at the Hudson’s Bay Canada, as for today only, online shoppers can save up to 35% off on the women’s summer collections. The sales that the Hudson’s Bay are offering include all your summertime essentials, with discounts on everything from dresses and skirts to bathing suits and coverups.

Within the women’s flash-sale on summer dresses, I was able to find this flirty Kensie Palm Trees Dress that features a feminine lace overlay, complemented by a scalloped hemline. The dress would be an ideal outfit for a weekend BBQ or even a family member’s graduation, as that season is also fast approaching. With the extra 30% off, the dress will only come to $70.85 (was $109).

Another fun option for summertime parties is to don a sexy little-black-romper in lieu of winter’s favourite little-black-dress. This Calvin Klein Flounce Jumpsuit has also been adorned with a sleek, silver hardware to play up the jumpsuit’s keyhole feature. Ordinarily, a jumpsuit like this would sell for $139, but right now can be purchased for just $90.35.

Summer wouldn’t be summer without a couple of bikinis and cocktails beside the pool. For those of you looking to find the best one-piece, tankini, bikini or coverup for this summer, then you should check out the Hudson’s Bay’s sale on swimwear where bathing suit pieces are starting for as low as $30. This twist front bandeau top from the La Blanca Solid Swim Collection has recently been marked down to be just $46.20 for the top (regularly $84), and if you wanted to purchase the matching bottoms it would only be an extra $47.60 (regularly $68).

The Hudson’s Bay will be running these flash-sales until 11:59pm EST tonight, and remember, since this is an online exclusive sale, the Bay will only offer free-shipping on orders that are $99 or more.
