Oooh.. I'm going to have to look into the Avon aloe! Sounds like a great deal, I hope it's available in Canada as well?

They have Banana Boat and Hawaiian Tropic I think.

Hi ladies!

The Avon deal is great! I did not purchase my after sun aloe there but I got it free!

I went shopping to Shoppers Drug Mart when they have a 20X the points and I used the points last weekend. They had a spending point event so I was able to redeem 80 000 optimum points for 200$. They have Life brand Aloe tube (in a medium size) for 3.99 each but that was "free" for me. I was also able to purchase some meds (Ind. wrapped Gravol for instance) and insect repellant wipes. They also sell mini bottle of Advil and Tylenol (was not able to find them in the store aisles) but they are at the front, near the cash registers.

Just to let you know as I was not aware, I explained the destination wedding situation to a pharmacist since I wanted to bring some Pepto Bismol with me. She told me that it was not a great idea since this med is interacting with a lot of other popular meds and guests are propably not aware of it. They have a lot of other meds "safer" for the guests.

So If you have many points with your Optimum card you can have a great deal there, specially if you collect your points when they 20X them!

Hmmm.... didn't know this about Pepto... will have to look into it or ask our pharmacist, as an over the counter I wouldn't expect any issues! Thanks

Thanks for this info. I didn't even think of consulting the pharmacist.

Hey Canadian Girl, what e-bay store are you getting your cups from? I've never bought anything from e-bay, but a lot of the brides here buy stuff them e-bay. I guess, I am going to star now too

Yup, just ask your local Avon lady! I know it is in this campaign that goes out Sunday (Campaign 13) but the $1.89 price is in the next Campaign as well - but you can always go back at least two campaigns if I'm not mistaken. (Like 12 was due May 29 but I can still order from 12 for at least another 2 wks). I'm just a rookie avon lady though. You guys may want to ask a pro, lol. If you go to AVON.ca you can hit an option that says find a local representative for your area
