Forum member The__Rock has let us know that March 2-4 will be 18,500 bonus Optimum points when you spend $75 on almost anything in-store. I will confirm this once we get a flyer.

After a frugal February and January, I do need to stock up on some things so may do this promo if the flyer is decent, what about you?  Hopefully they have some $50 promos soon, I prefer them over 75 promos.

Have you ever liked & shared a post on facebook as a way to win a prize?  Apart from there being facebook issues with doing contests right on your wall, so many of these votes do not count because users (rightly) have all of their posts set to friends only which means the page can’t see your share.

When people share facebook posts from the SmartCanucks’ wall we can typically only see 10-20% of those shares (a reminder those who don’t set all posts to friends only, but some of them are shares to other pages) so the other 80-90% would not be counted.

For your share to be counted, you need to click the box shown, which will likely say Friends as default and choose public.  I usually go back and change them to friends after the contest is over so my page doesn’t show them publicly forever.

After our recent post & giveaway about coupon organizers from Glow Girl, some people mentioned that they remembered that I used to have a big purple binder and they were interested in how you set up one to stay more organized.  I did find it easier to actually find the coupons I wanted in my binder, but it was not practical when I often shop on my way home from work using public transit.

The pictures were taken a couple of years ago, so a trip down memory lane with the coupons

I bought this binder on clearance at Walmart for only $5, as you can see it has lots of pockets to help keep things organized and separated.

I kept my flyers in the front section (picture 2) for price-matching.

In the mesh pocket (picture 3) a scissors and some ‘thanks for the trade’ business cards from Vistaprint to throw in with trades to save writing it out each time (they gave my username, thanks for the trade and please remember to leave feedback on them).

The section behind the mesh pocket held envies (I sort coupons I know I am using with my shopping list separated by store).

Behind that, there is a 3 pocket section where I would put coupons that I found while shopping or ones I knew I was saving for people in our local trade swapping meets.

I also used a mix of baseball card holders (packs of 10 sheets at Dollarama) and Currency Holders – these are made for people who collect paper money from around the world and easily hold your larger coupons.  I paid around $15 including shipping from ebay for 20 sheets of currency holders.  Don’t put too many coupons in a pocket or the static won’t hold it closed and they will fall out (why I also chose a zippered binder).

Mine was separated into these sections: Food FPCs, Other FPCs, Food, Drink, Snacks, Pet, Beauty, Household, Other, Printables & Bonus Points, I find the more sections the harder it is to find coupons when they include a number of items etc
