Walmart has Blistix SPF15 on sale for $1 right now. 3 flavours but since I'm boring I just went with original. :-) Happy to find a chapstick with SPF for such a good deal.

Just wanted to let you ladies know what I picked up tonight at the Dollorama.

 

I picked these hand sanitizer's up for $1.00, so they were 33 cents a piece.

 

I also picked up these awesome, funny luggage tags for $1.00 each. (FI picked them out)

 

We also picked up these pens for $1.00 for our guestbook.

Oh man red789. How silly is it that I didn't think about halloween candy at all? I'm leaving on Halloween so this idea will come in handy for me too. Thanks!

I had already bought my OOT bags at Simons in Montreal, but I went into Giant Tiger yesterday and bought new bags that are waaay better! They're tropical prints (big flowers and leaves) and bright colours, plus, they come with a separate little "clutch", that people could put their hotel key, money, etc into. All for the low price of $3.00 each!!!!!

I am so heading to GT boutique! lol

Tara - I see that you're from Cornwall. It's not very often I see that someone is from there. My brother and the rest of my dads family live there too.

Just thought I'd let you ladies know that I found key card/tip holders at Staples for 99 cents each. I'd already got some leather ones from Dollarama, but they didn't have enough, so I'd planned on raiding another store. The ones I found at Staples though are really cute patterened ones, so I'm going to use those for the girls and give the leather ones to the boys! They also had solid colors at Staples, if you want to get them all there!

Also, went to Giant Tiger recently, on everyones advice, and though I didn't find anything for my OOT bags, I DID find 2 really cute dresses for $15 a peice AND a sweet bandeau bikini for $30! WOOT!

My GT had nothing either. I was disapointed but found great stuff at other places. I went to the Buck or Two store and picked up 3 toy water guns for $1, small decks of cards for .50 cents, game cards (old maid, crazy eights) for .50 cents and tropical flavored lip gloss with sunscreen for $1 each. It was great!
