Websites

Thanks for some of your great feedback. Some of you have emailed them to me, some have sent them on the comment form on the bottom of the blog. You can also just click on the link that says “comments” right at the bottom of this blog and post it for everyone to see.
Check out the websites on the side of this post if you want some budgeting help. For example, I use kijiji.ca or craigslist.ca if I have something that I want to sell that I really don’t need. We’ve done this a number of times, especially if we needed money for something. I’ve sold a pool slide, bar stools, guitar amp, bike, and many other items. How about you? Any great stories of something you’ve sold?
Also, someone suggested going on flyerland.ca to look at our grocery stores flyer and plan their menu for the week based on what's on sale. Or, for coupons, going to save.ca because they mail the coupons right to your door.Priceline.com and hotwire.com are great sites if you want to get away to a hotel for a night – we’ve stayed in Toronto at a 4+ star for $35 a night using priceline before. You name your price and then they tell you after which hotel you get.
When I go to a restaurant or amusement park, I’ll usually check out smartcanucks.sa or redflagdeals.com because they often have printable coupons or tell you where and how you can get a discount.
These are just some of the websites out there for helping you with your budget.
Hope you have fun checking them out!
