Thanks Rose (kpfunk) for suggesting this freebie 🙂

Here’s what Rose had to say:

Today I went into Blockbuster to rent some movies. When I was paying for the movies the clerk mentioned if I renew my membership I can receive a preview movie valued at $6.99 for free. My membership renewal was not due until November. So I did.  I received a free movie, used a $2.00 coupon. Found out I had a free rental for one of the rentals. So I saved money.  I do not know if this is offered in every area but it was in my location.

My name is Cassie, but you can call me MrsJanuary (and no, that’s not my last name, silly – it’s because I was born in January!). I’ve been a frequent visitor and huge fan of Smart Canucks for months now. Isn’t it the greatest? 🙂

I really enjoy bargains, freebies and fantastic deals and I also enjoy sharing them with others. I live by lists and have a list for everything (groceries, daily to-do list, how to save money, things I want to buy in the future, etc.) and I like to share those as well. Especially to-do lists because it gives me pressure to get things done, and I work best under pressure.

As far as my posts here, I will give all sorts of money saving tips, how to get great deals (including things for free) and more. Check back daily for my tips of the day!

Thank you for having me!

Skippy, a very proud father and a fellow Smart Canucks member, tells all as his daughter, Lizzie, graces the front pages of both The Star and The Toronto Sun.

Here the family thought I’d make the papers one day. My daughter beat me to it!

In SUN too! (Pardon my gloating!)

[http://torontosun.com/News/Canada/2008/05/23/5646406-sun.html]

Lizzie, among several of her classmates (Grade 6 students from Oshawa’s Coronation Public School) participated in an environmental project that hopes to restore the population of Atlantic Salmon to Lake Ontario. Decked out in rubber boots and amidst the stream, they helped release 27,000 salmon fry into Duffins Creek on Friday.

The project, a coordinated effort involving more than 30 organizations, is in its third year and has cost an estimated $3 million so far. If it takes off, Lake Ontario could be home to a healthy Atlantic salmon population by 2020, Robinson said.

Once the fry grow up and head out into the lake, their chances of survival are slim, Rance said. Perhaps one in 1,000 will return to the stream as adults to spawn. Fingerlings and yearlings have higher survival rates, but because they spend more time growing up in aquariums they may be less likely to come back to their home streams.

Rance said the restoration project serves two purposes – the salmon act as an incentive for people to keep the lake clean, but they also allow researchers to gauge pollution levels in the lake by studying the fish that return to spawn.

Robinson said the project means different things to the many people involved. “I’ve found a lot of different angles to it,” he said. Some act out of a moral obligation to undo humankind’s ecological footprint – “It’s sort of a you-broke-it, you-buy-it philosophy,” he said. Source
