Not so much of a deal as an opportunity, but if you’re a Scene Member, you’ll be able to buy tickets to the 26th Gemini Awards, hosted by Russell Peters. The broadcast will take place on Wednesday, September 7th at 6pm at the CBC Building on 250 Front Street West, Toronto.

Tickets are $30, first come, first served, exclusively for Scene Members. Not a bad price, considering that small concerts are at least that price, plus you get to see Russell Peters who always sells out!

To purchase tickets, email [email protected] with your SCENE membership number & the number of tickets you would like to purchase, maximum of 10/person.

From now until September 5 you can save an additional 15% on all your purchases at The Children’s Place.  You can either print this coupon to use in store or enter coupon code 2W9D2011 at checkout online.   They also have Labor Day sales going on including Denim starting at $12, uniforms at 40% off and Halloween for 30% off.  Oh and they have some pretty good clearance too!  If you are shopping online, they have flat rating shipping of $8.

I recently had a disagreement with a friend about a popular clothing store – whose name I will not mention. Said friend who is a professional, and can easily afford to shop at high-end stores, was trying to convince me to shop at said clothing store.

It’s true that you can’t really go wrong with $7.90 basic camisoles, but my issue lies with the quality of the clothing. In fact, after referring to it as “disposable fashion”, my friend agreed and further added that that’s the beauty of these cheap clothing chains: You can just buy new clothes once you get sick of the old styles!

I completely understand her pov, but at an early age, my mom taught me about QUALITY by making remarks such as, “Don’t wear cheap shoes…they’ll ruin your feet!” and “Only buy shoes from Country #1, #2, or #3”. And somehow, these remarks are still with me today as a consumer.

Buying my own clothes and shoes, I first look at the material, whether or not it’s easy to wash, will it pill up, style/wearability – will it be something I will wear on more than one occasion, and yes, I also look to see what country the item is made. If all those above mentioned factors check out, then I check out the price tag!

And it is for the same reasons listed that I will not step foot into that debated store. It may be nice to look at the dizzying array of styles, prints, and colours, but buying it to wear is another story!

With Back To School as an official retail season, there’s no doubt that you’ll pick up some clothing for yourself as well. So is your take on disposable fashion to leave it on the rack OR grab the deals and head straight to the check-out?

I recently blogged about Sun Butter and how it has become our nut free alternative to peanut butter for our children for school.  While it may not pass the taste test for everyone it sure surpassed our expectations from the previous brands we tried.  When we wrote to Sun butter to thank them for making such a qaulity product that passed the ultimate taste test with our 2 children they emailed us a $0.75 off coupon.  You however do not have to email them if you would like a coupon.  Just click here to fill out an online survey at their site and they will email you a coupon to your inbox.

This is a pretty decent deal that I think deserves mention on its own. BBC’s Natural History Collection, including Planet Earth, Ganges, Wild China and Galapagos (which is great even on its own!) for $45.99 with free shipping, on Blu-Ray. There is also a marketplace seller with a price of $38.99, but it’s a new seller, so I’m not sure how good of an idea that is (plus shipping is then $3.49, so the price difference isn’t huge). This set includes 1150 minutes of television.
