CANADIAN OOT BAG info...where to shop!

[SuzyQ76]

I don't think it's the same bug, but yes I think we definitely pass things back and forth!!! It's inevitable! especially when the baby is sick it's impossible to stay away from him!! lol I think he just has a cold, and I am coughing with a sore throat...and FI just told me on the phone that his throat is really sore too! Ugh.....2 sick boys, that is not in anyway fun, big sooks!!

 

I already sent you my addy, it's way easier to chat that way! lol

 

Australia might add a little bit to shipping! lol

Have not decided if I am going to use these in OOT bags, probably on the tables as wedding favours in Mexico, but love Oriental Trading Company! I got these little personalized tins with mints in them....48 tins cost me $44 CAD! They are blk and wht and on the back it says thank you. Works out to less than $1 each even with tax and shipping.

Can someone help me out? My nephew is coming...he is 12 and having his 13th birthday on the trip. We are going to make him a junior usher so he does not feel left out (sister is the flower girl and mom is my MOH). Any suggestions on gifts for him or things I can put in his OOT bag? A bunch of stuff I am including for the adults would not be age appropriate and same problem with the stuff for the little kids! My FI and I are coming up blank with something unique just for him...can't really give him a flask like the groomsmen!

Raykel, that's a tough one, especially if you plan to take it down to Mexico yourself, because then you're also dealing with a space issue.

 

I'm thinking something he can 'play' with, like a remote control helicopter or maybe an underwater camera (can get disposable ones for about $12). Or maybe some kind of water sports game?

Has anyone seen where I can buy inflatable water wings and floaties?? I have been looking but I have had no luck finding them at this time of year...

I just saw them the other day at the Dollarama but they only had like 1 or two left. Canadian tire sometimes has them all year round too.
Good luck!

[jetsbride]

Thanks Jennybell1, I will check both!

just wanted to let all the canadian brides out there know that i was randomly at Canadian Tire today on my lunch and they had travel mugs for 60% off so the cheapes one was 1.99 and they were pretty nice...these would be great for OOT bags however i believe today is the last day of the sale

I found really good deals at Walmart for these. I bought floaties and the water wings for $1 each! I did find them there last month though, so I'm not sure if they'll still have it. The Walmart right across from me had about 15 floaties last week when I passed through. Might be worth checking out just in case.

Dollarama has travel mugs as well for 1.25 per mug, the only issue is if they have enough on the shelf that day. However I was told they are a regular item, so you should be able to get more in a few weeks if they ran out.
