Bargains
So this is me, I’m Anne and this is my Bargain Blog! (but you may see some of my friends blogging here too)
In this section you will find some of the best bargains for Canadians to enjoy, from electronics to travel and clothing. You will notice coupon codes from some top Canadian brands, but we will also keep you in the loop with all the online Sales and Deals out there too.
I hope you enjoy my Bargain Blog and I hope you join the hundreds of others who have joined our community by simply making a comment or sending deals through to me at contact@vouchercodes.ca.
Scholastic (the publishing company) just stepped up another notch in my estimation. Not only are these guys the publishers of the Hunger Games series (so I instantly liked the company) but they also have a large presence in the education publishing market.
In celebration of this the company is offering over 1600 educational eBooks (PDF’s) on their website for only $1. Both teachers and parents might want to pay attention to this deal, and hurry, as it will only last until May 18th 2012.
The sale is huge. Many of the titles on sale for only $1 were originally $20+. There are a ton of topics to choose from ranging from ‘classroom management strategies’ (for the teachers) to 50+ super-fun math activities (for parents), and for a host of age ranges (you can segment the books by grade for easy picking).
Growing up my mom was a teacher and she understood the importance of complementary learning, so she would always have me learning outside of school, with textbooks and mental exercises, I can’t say I was always happy about it (I wanted to play football instead), but it certainly prepared me for a more academic life.
In nut shell, Curves is a gym (for women only – which is wrong if you ask me, but great if you ask my girlfriend). They have gyms all over the world but mostly in North America. And they are franchises, so they have a familiar vibe without being blue-prints of each other. Their claim to fame is that their workout sessions (yes, you are with lots of other sweaty ladies) last only 30 minutes and it’s circuit training, so you get to use a wide variety of machines and go through a ton of exercises, which means a whole body workout, rather than focusing on specific areas. Curves is all about the socialness of the event, if you could turn a tea house into a gym it would be curves (for the good or the bad).
I also saw an advert a few months ago that said they had teamed up with Zumba Fitness, so perhaps you can ditch your dancing and workout classes and just do the Curves/Zumba one instead. Actually, that may be lazy, which defeats the point.
T&C’s: “Limit of one 30 day free membership per person. Not valid with any other offer, no cash value. New members only. Valid only at participating locations in US & Canada. Offer expires 20th May 2012″
They just released a new drink: a frozen drink (not the home-style kind unfortunately for me) in either raspberry or lemon flavours and in celebration of the launch and a great way to get free publicity (cite this page :) they are selling them at the bank breaking cost of $1 (for a small) until the end of the summer (by the way this is a not an official date, just them trying to take advantage of McDonald’s slogan ~ you know, the one that won’t leave your media confounded brain “only a dollar….all summer..”) And we assume that the $1 is before tax, which will be different in every province of this fine country, so I can’t guess at it unfortunately.
I think Tim Hortons is a franchise and like all franchise not all outlets will be participating in the offer, but when it comes to Timmy’s they usually do (I haven’t found one contrary to a promotion… ever)
If I handled this epically poorly and you still don’t have a clue what this promo is about then there is help for that either here or here.
I have the unfortunate disadvantage of living in a different country to my mum, so i don’t get to see her or speak to her as often as I would like. What makes it worse is that Mothers Day in Canada is different to that in the UK (where I was born), so I keep forgetting the UK’s date and my siblings look like veritable superstars in comparison to me. If there is anything I’ve learned over the years (which is now far too many for my liking) is that you should be kind and thoughtful to anyone that knew you as a child and especially your family, this is where that extra dose of patience you’ve been hoarding is required.
So my aim today is to grab as many people as I can, shake them and tell them to do something for their mum for Mother’s Day. Be it that perfect Mother’s Day present, some flowers, chocolates, a spa treatment or my personal favourite; a bloody telephone call! (not literally, that would get messy)
While it may be a bit late to actually buy a present it’s certainly not too late to drive to your mum’s place, ring that doorbell and give her a hug! If you can’t make it (like me) then at least you can call to say ‘Happy Mother’s Day’ and tell her how important she is to you.
Just take a look at this Infographic to see just how much you owe your mum (and then some). It’s cool huh?
If you’re a fan of the Superdry brand or if you don’t know the clothing brand just yet, this may be the perfect opportunity to go and browse their unique style at Superdry.com. We now have an exclusive 20% off coupon code that lasts only for one week. And don’t try to look for a better promotion as this is the best available at the moment in Canada.
According to the UK based brand, their style is influenced directly by the Japanese graphics and vintage americana. In my opinion, Superdry’s style is what I would call ‘urban’ and it is now appreciated in more than 300 countries around the world.
Hey, what about you let us know what you think about the brand? Take a few minutes to go and check their site and come back here to give us your opinion. We would like to hear from you!
Starting today, use this promotional code at Sears.ca and get $20 off purchases of women’s fashion of $100 or more. This is the kind of code that we rarely see at Sears.ca as they normally have coupons for a certain percentage off orders valid towards all the products and not on a select category like this one.
The code is valid throughout the month of May, so it’s right on time to refresh your wardrobe with some new summer clothing. Sears are really working hard to improve their fashion section and I think that it shows in the addition of some pretty nice items. And with such a large selection of products, you should find something that will fit with your personal style.
This promotion starts only tomorrow at your local Starbucks but I wanted to make sure that no one would miss it. So starting on the 4th of May between 3 and 5pm everyday head to the closest Starbucks and get any kind of Frappuccino for 50% off their regular price.
The promotion ends on the 13th of May, which gives you exactly 10 days to enjoy it. If you want to learn more about Starbucks as a company, then I suggest you go and check their corporate website as it contains a lot of interesting facts and information. One of the sections talks about Starbucks as an ethical company and I was curious to find out about their implication in various charities.
Just like a bunch of other Canadian merchants, Blue Nile are jumping in and offering a coupon code for Mother’s Day. Reveal it below and get 10% off your order from Bluenile.ca.
I checked the top ten suggestions of gifts for mothers and there were some pretty pieces of jewellery in there. I particularly like the floral circle dangle earrings in 14k yellow and rose gold and the heart charm bracelet in sterling silver. Prices in the top ten gifts ideas section start at $50 and go up to $1,020, which is over budget for me!
The latest promo code for Mattel will get all customers 15% off their online purchase at Shop.mattel.com. Their online store contains all of their best products including Barbies, Hot Wheels, Disney figures, Fisher-Price products and more. If it’s the birthday of one of your little ones soon, this might be a good opportunity to save money on gifts.
We also have a Mattel coupons page where we always add the latest deals and promotion codes. To make sure that you have the best price on your purchase, have a look to this page first and grab any valid code for an extra discount.
If your mom likes to do sports, you might want to put this Puma Canada coupon to good use for a mother’s day gift. Until the 13th of May, Canadians could either save $20 on orders of $100+ or $50 on online purchases of $200 or more. Plus they are also offering 25% off all women’s styles. If you want to get something on time for mother’s day, shop in advance to make sure you get it on time.
When shopping at the Puma Canadian online store, note that all prices are shown in US dollars even though you’re on the Canadian site.
Last weekend I was trying to find the perfect gift for my mom and I was really having a hard time trying to find something different from what I always buy every year: flowers. But this morning as an email from Chapters Indigo Canada came in, I finally got it; a Kobo eReader.
My mom reads a lot and she always has this big pile of books at home that takes a lot of space so I’m sure she could really appreciate to have all the books she wants on a single device. I checked the price at Chapters.Indigo.ca and it is now only $99 including shipping and it comes with 2 ebooks! This is a great price and it will make the perfect gift for my mom on mother’s day.
What are you getting for your mom this year? Anything special?
Porter Airlines are doing it again! Book your flight before the 4th of May 2012 and use this coupon code to get 50% off your fare. It is valid for travel before the 4th of September 2012, so you can use it to plan your holiday this summer.
A quick note about something that I noticed last time I wanted to use one of these promo codes. The discount is applied only on the base fares of the flight and not on all the fees that are added on top of this price. And because the base fare is never the highest amount, the deal can sometimes not be as good as it originally looked like. But it is still better than no discount at all.
Steve Madden don’t have a dedicated Canadian website, but their .com ships to Canada. This coupon code that, luckily for us, lasts until the end of June will get all customers 15% off any purchase of $75 or more.
The new collections are now available at Stevemadden.com and I’ve spotted a pair of sandals that simply look amazing. I’m probably going to try them in store though because with the duty and handling fees, I want to be sure they will fit perfectly. They also have a big selection of prom shoes, but make sure you’re able to walk with high heels before buying them because they are super high, almost enough to have vertigo when wearing them ;)
The deadline to submit your taxes declaration, April 30th, is approaching quickly. In fact this is the last weekend to do your taxes report so you might as well use this promotion on the Turbotax online edition software and do it faster. Turbotax software does all the thinking for you so you simply have to fill in the specific boxes with your numbers.
Click on the below link and you will see the 15% off Turbotax discount applied in your cart. You won’t be able to find the promotion directly on their site, so it is important that you use the links available on this page. I hope everyone will have a juicy tax refund this year!
The Source are currently running a clearance outlet sale and there are some pretty awesome deals on electronics and accessories available. I’m not sure when this promotion expires, it is normally when they run out of stock, but who knows this time, so you might want to hurry up.
I found a 4GB memory card for only $5.96, various protective cases for smartphones for $4.96, Sony earbuds for $24.96, Toshiba laptops for $274.99 (originally $549.99) and many more hot deals. The Source are having sales regularly so I didn’t expect anything more than what they normally have, but this time the discounts are higher and the selection of electronics and accessories is wide. It’s definitely worth a look.
Here is another great offer from The Body Shop Canada. Starting today and going on throughout the weekend, ending on the 29th of April, get 35% off your purchase. Shipping will cost you $5 or get it for free when you spend a minimum of $75 (excludes orders shipped to Nunavut, Northwest Territories and the Yukon).
The Body Shop have some pretty good ideas for mother’s day gifts so you should be able to find a little something special for your mom. Go and browse the mother’s day gifts idea section and find the perfect little treat, fragrance set, luxury gift and more. Don’t waste too much time before ordering it though if you want to be sure that you’ll get it on time for mother’s day.
Staples have released two different offers for the customer appreciation days. The first coupon will get Canadians $10 off their online or phone order of $100 or more until the 30th of April. When ordering online, Staples offer free shipping on purchases of $50 or more.
The second coupon contains a printable coupon that can be used in store on the 27th and 28th of April only to get 10% off any purchase. It cannot be used on the doorcrashers products.
This time the coupon we have for the Tria laser is not for the hair removal system, but for their skin perfecting blue light. This device is supposed to be just as effective as the oned used by dermatologists. Tria claims that the Blue Light eliminates the bacteria causing acne and also helps to improve the skin texture.
For more information there is a video on Tria Beauty’s website that explains how the Blue Light works. Just like the Tria hair removal system, this device is also FDA-cleared.
The Tria Blue Light retail price is $245, which means that you can get it for $295 + tx when using this coupon code. Shipping, handling and duty fees should also apply on your order.
This is good news for all the Canadian customers who like to shop brands from Canada; Le Chateau now have a ‘Sale’ section on their website. This means that savings are now available all year long at Lechateau.com.
I browsed through the sale section and I found some pretty nice items including bags, dresses, belts, shoes, pants and a lot more discounted products. I always liked Le Chateau style, but I also thought that their products were not getting on sale frequently enough. It looks like it’s not the case anymore and I’m sure a lot of customers will appreciate this.
Bootlegger are currently running a promotion where customers can get 20% off their purchase, whether it is online or in store. That’s right, find below a coupon code plus a printable coupon and choose the most appropriate depending where you want to shop at. The promotion expires on the 23rd of May, so this means plenty of time to redeem it.
It’s been a while since we talk about Bootlegger and I’m not sure why because they have quite a nice website and their collections also look great. At the moment I’ve spotted this offer online: buy one top for men or women and get the 2nd one 50% off.
We always work hard to bring you the best deals for top Canadian merchants and this time we were able to get you an exclusive discount code for Lenovo Canada. Grab the below coupon and get up to 20% off Thinkpad laptops.
Lenovo computers are known for their reliability and durability. If you’re shopping for a new laptop or tablet, Lenovo have some really interesting devices that you might be interested in. You can find all the technical specs and prices for their products on Lenovo’s Canadian website.
Luckily for our users, this coupon expires only at the end of May which leaves plenty of time to redeem it. But if for any reason you miss it, then you can always find the latest offers on our Lenovo Canada promo codes page.
The Bay Days 2012 are now here! This normally means some of the best discounts and the lowest prices of the year on a wide selection of products. With an active online store, The Bay Days are now also running at thebay.com.
The additional 25% off discount is available when you use your HBC Mastercard or HBC credit card on clearance-priced red-ticketed items. The prices are already pretty low, so if you own such a credit card you could save even more. No code need to be entered at checkout, simply use the below link to enjoy the offer. Happy savings Canada!
Good morning everyone. Just a quick post to remind you that it is Earth Day today, in case you’ve forgotten it. There are a lot of activities and initiatives going on everywhere in Canada in which you might want to take part.
Go to the Earth Day Canada website and get all the information about what’s going in your area. It could be nice to do something different with the kids today.
Lovesac claim that they are the creator of the original ‘bean bag’ and that they have sold more than 250,000 Lovesacs since 1998. They now offer a wide selection of sacs available in different fabrics and sizes. You shouldn’t have doubts about their durability because they all come with a lifetime guarantee to never go flat, break or tear. This is pretty awesome I think.
Anyway, if you fancy buying a Lovesac, then this weekend is the perfect time to do so as we have a 20% off coupon code. It can be redeem only if you also buy a cover. As you might know, all the sac’s cover can be removed and are machine washable.
Expect a bunch of coupon codes for all kind of stores this weekend to celebrate Earth Day. Well.ca is one of the first discount codes that we got and it will get you 15% off any purchase of natural and green products. To find what kind of green products Well.ca have, simply click on the promotion link on their homepage.
I’m personally always buying green cleaning products because I think they are less toxic and they are normally not even more expensive than the regular ones full of chemicals. This is just a simple action, but it could make a big difference if everyone would do the same. And don’t worry they clean just like the other products.
1928.com have released a new coupon code for all online shoppers to enjoy 50% off their purchase of any discounted items. They have over 400 styles in stock, so everyone should be able to find something right for their taste.
1928 specialize in vintage style jewelry and I need to say that I personally am a fan. My boyfriend got me a long necklace from them for Christmas and I wear it really often. I highly recommend to go and check what they have because they have a unique style that is absolutely superb in my opinion.
Time to get your kids some Robeez shoes for Spring and Summer. They have some pretty cute models and you don’t even need to go in store to get a pair as they are all available online at Robeez.ca.
And with this free shipping promotion, it’s not going to cost you more to order online. Shipping is normally free when you buy 2 or more pairs, if ever you miss this limited-time offer or you don’t need anything right now.
My nephew, who is 6 months old, has a pair of Robeez booties and her mom really likes them. She says that they stay in his feet and I personally think they look pretty cute.
Roots Canada are not the biggest fans of coupon codes, but they often run promotions that are valid storewide. It’s the case of their latest one that will allow all customers to get 25% off any purchase from Canada.roots.com. The Roots offer is going on until this Sunday, April 22nd. Plus, don’t forget that shipping in Canada is always free on orders of $100 or more.
Looking for a gift for mother’s day? Have a look to the shipping deadlines on Roots’ website to make sure that you will get it on time. The time frame changes depending on where you live.
We already had a 10% off coupon for Luisaviaroma but it didn’t stop them from releasing a better one to get an extra 20% off all discounted items. And this fresh promo code is valid through the 10th of May, which gives you even more time to redeem it.
Browsing through the Luisaviaroma website, whether it is the sale section or the latest Summer 2012 collection, is always a pleasure for the eyes.
If you are looking for a discount on regular priced items, have a look at our Luisaviaroma coupons page where we list all the latest codes and deals. If we don’t have one there, it probably means that there are none available at this time. But don’t worry rarely ever happens and there’s always some sort of discount or special offer for you to enjoy, such as free shipping or free gifts.
A coupon code for Backcountry is a rare thing so we wanted to make sure you wouldn’t miss this one. Until tomorrow only, you could get an extra 15% off your purchase of full-price items from Backcountry.com. You might want to copy and paste the code to avoid any typo.
Backcountry sell clothing, gear and accesories for your favorite outdoor activities such as hiking, snowboarding, skiiing, paddling, snowshoeing and more. All of the major brands are available, so you can use the code on North Face products, Patagonia or many others.
