Tonight, I had the pleasure of meeting several of the SmartCanucks who live/work in Toronto for a coupon swap & chat.  We talked about where to use which coupons for the best deals and if products we had not personally tried had been used by other members.

Attending were Mothu, Bug, Spice_43, Kittyc, save-girl, Andit, sunraven, peacestar, cjordan, screamy and coolgirl (I really hope I am not missing anyone, and if I am, sorry ladies!).  Also sneaking in was Quincy, who belongs to Andit – a very well behaved kitty who just sat there enjoying some ear scritches and probably wondering why he was dragged out of his house to meet all these loud women in some strange place.

Mothu, Bug and I were all newbies and a little overwhelmed by the coupon queens among the group but they gave us some great tips on where to find coupons and how to use them as well as sharing some of their coupons with us to get us off on the right path.

They meet on a regular basis (although I don’t think my new buddy Quincy (I think of him as Quincy2 so as not to confuse him with my little brat Quincy) usually attends) so if you sign up to SmartCanucks, bite the bullet and look for a meet in your area.  It is a little overwhelming as I mentioned, but well worth learning from the experts.
