Winners Paris Tote Bag

On my way to the grocery store this morning I decided to go to Winners, which is conveniently located next door. I have not gone shopping for clothes for a very long time. I don't count the times that I buy stuff at Joe Fresh as it is located in the grocery store.

When I walked in to the store the first thing I saw was this reusable tote bag.  I knew I had to have it. I am obsessed with Paris. It was only $1.49.

 

Earlier this week I purchased the Roots Daily Tote Bag from Chapters Indigo. It is the perfect size for carrying my lunch and my Kobo eReader.

I will have to start getting rid of some of my tote bags. They can no longer fit in the container that I keep them in. The pile is really high.

Canada Post Comparison Shopper

Online shopping made easier for Canadians.

There is nothing a shopaholic likes more than getting a deal.

I was looking online for a new digital camera to replace the one that I dropped. I found a camera that I liked on the Black's website. The only problem that I had was that you had to spend $400 to get free shipping. I didn't want to pay for shipping. I decided to go to a Black's store near my office. They did not have the camera in stock. They called another store, and they were also sold out.

I remembered that I had bookmarked the website Canada Post Comparison Shopper. I had never used the website before. I decided to give it a try. It was quite easy. I entered the item that I was looking for and reviewed the search results for various stores. I was happy to find the same camera ten dollars cheaper on the Amazon Canada website. I ordered the camera last Tuesday and it arrived two days later.

I will definitely be using this website more often.

Diesel Welcome Bag

For Christmas I received a gift card for the Hudson's Bay Comany (HBC) group of stores  (The Bay, Zellers and Home Outfitters). I decided to go to The Bay. Maybe I would be able to find a new bag.

As luck would have it, I found this Diesel bag. It would come in very handy for this time of year with all of the snow and slush. The bag that I purchased is black.  I dropped my digital camera when I was taking pictures of the bag.

The bag is made of Polyurethane and suede. It has many pockets on the outside which I love.

P.S.  Not happy that I broke my digital camera. Maybe I was not meant to have a new bag.

Black Swan

I have not seen the actually movie Black Swan or the ballet. 

I was looking for a new activity to keep me motivated to work out. I still do pilates, but I am very bored at the gym. My chiropractor suggested doing a spinning class or ballet. She had suggested ballet before and I thought that she was joking.

I have never tried a spinning class, but the thought of it scares me. I have signed up for an Absolute Beginners Ballet class. The first class was this past Friday.  I hope that I survive the classes.
