I don’t know about the rest of you, but
grocery shopping became less interesting to me when they started to use
barcodes instead of price stickers. No longer could I scrounge around on the bottom shelf for the jar
of peanut butter that was priced less than the ones at eye level.
I still enjoy “the thrill of the hunt” and
starting today, Jan, my cohort in all things “cheap and cheerful” (to quote the
Brits) and I will be sharing with our blog followers some of the escapades that
we go on in search of interesting and frugal fibre arts and mixed media arts
and craft supplies and where they may be found in Calgary and area.
With today’s frugal find we are also doing
our first giveaway, a non-stick silicone baking sheet, a $2 find that is virtually identical to the non-stick craft mats sold by a number of companies for $15 -
$25 dollars.
Our $2 find is a tad smaller than the others, but works just as
well as the more expensive brands. This frugal find was purchased in Calgary at
Bianca Amour Liquidation.
In order to win today’s giveaway,
post your
favourite "crafty" frugal find in the comments area. We will have a third party pick
the winning entry on April
1st and contact the winner for their mailing
address. Cheers, Jan and Meredith
