I always pick up different flavours I don't have. I wonder how many more are out there.

Ladyshaver:  $4 (RSP:  $12)
Notebook:  $2

Both @ Dollarama.

The retail price for that shaver wasn't that high, but I've never seen them that cheap here!  Most of the brand name ones that do the same thing cost $20-$30.

Thumper sweater:  $3.50
PJ Couture unicorn onesie:  $3.50 (RSP:  $30+)


Gamago nail buff:  $.50 (RSP:  $5+)


Knife set:  $29.99

All @ Bianca Amor's.

I've wanted that knife block for a long time, but it was sold out a while ago.  I thought it might be cheaper online, but they're all $70+.  The original is over $100, so I thought this was decent.

Natural loofah sponge:  $3.99 @ Beauty boutique (RSP:  $4.99)

Plus all those free samples!  They had new sale items so I couldn't resist.  Shipping was still free and I heard from someone else that the Viva LA juicy was a mini.

That goes for $10 online already, so it was a deal!  The alien sample was disappointing though..it was supposed to be a spray.

Anyway, I found out the Lise Water full sized mascaras are 8 ml, so a 5.6 ml sample is almost full.

Bonita cosmetics nail-o-ween set:  $2 (RSP:  $3.99)
Black radiance urban colour shadow boxes:  $1 each (RSP:  $7.99 each)
LED tweezers:  $1.50
Wet n wild everything under the sun bronzer:  $1 (RSP:  $4.99)

All @ Bianca Amor's.

They also had a bunch of Revlon lipsticks, but they were probably 4 years old.

I've never heard of black radiance before, but it turns out it's made by wet n wild, so I knew the quality would be fine.

Uriage thermal water $3.89 @ Beauty boutique (RSP:  $4.95)

The rest were free samples, and shipping was free too!!

The mascara is 5.6g, so a bit over half of a normal sized one.

The lip gloss is 2.3g, which is full size for some brands!

Essence gel nail polish - $1.69 each @ Shopper's drug mart (RSP:  $2.99)

I think I have all of the clearances shades now.  They also have some French manicure shades and spacey shades for $2.29 each, but they weren't nice.

Gel glitter eye mask:  $3.50 @ Dollarama
Garnier fructis sky hi volume mousse:  $2.99 @ Shopper's drug mart (RSP:  $6.49)

The mask was more than I wanted to pay, but I just loved it!  I couldn't find it cheaper online either, so I came back for it.  The ones online were around $10 each.

Rose compact mirror
Mermaid nail clipper set

$1.25 each @ Dollar tree

I've seen that mirror for a while, but wasn't tempted until now.

This was the first time I've seen those clippers though!  I've seen them all over Instagram and thought they were so cute.

Foundation:  $6.80
Moisturizer:  $5.80
Sqalane oil:  $7.80

All @ Deciem

I found out this company opened up a store, so I was excited to check it out.  They have high quality formulations for cheap, so I was intrigued.

They didn't have everything I wanted, but I ended up buying the rest online.  If I knew the shipping minimum was so low, I probably wouldn't have bothered to go!

Sofsole airr gel honeycomb insoles:  $4 (RSP:  $24.99+)
NakedNails:  $4 (RSP:  $10+)
Beam LED light strips:  $4 (RSP:  $9+)
Modella cosmetic bag:  $4 (RSP:  $16.97)

All @ Dollarama.

After yesterday, I wanted to find more pillows and throws!  I ended up going to two and neither had any.

But at least this one had stuff I haven't seen before.

Glitter unicorn coin purse (RSP:  $7.99)

$1 each @ Urban Planet.

What a great deal!  I didn't see them this cheap at other ones, but maybe they just didn't have the signs.

I did see some of them under $3 signs though!

So fresh so clean - Silicone replacement brush head:  $1 @ Winners (RSP:  $4.99 - $7)

The same one I bought a while back for twice the price.  It seems like I only find them when they're on clearance!  I've never seen a cache of them at full price anywhere.

Anyway, I picked this one up for my mom.  They never need to be replaced so I don't see myself picking up more.

Revele cleansing brush:  $4 @ Dollarama (RSP:  $14.99)

This was made by the same company as the other brush, but it's an even better deal because it comes with an extra head!  The colour's also much prettier.  I bought this one for my mom.

So Fresh So Clean - Silicone replacement head:  $2 @ Winners (RSP:  $4.99-$7)
So Fresh So Clean - Funky facial cleanser power brush:  $4 @ Dollarama (RSP:  ~$10 - $12.99)

I saw the brush first and was interested...except I know you have to replace those brush heads a few times a year, so it didn't seem worth the price.  Even though that's the cheapest power facial brush I've ever seen!

A few months before that I started seeing the same brush at Winners for $12.99.  The exact same brush made by the same company "Global Beauty Brands."  They had a few models in different colours, but I'm pretty sure they were exactly the same brush.

This was the cheapest brush for some reason.  I looked on their website and saw that they had a replacement silicone head, but there was no way for me to order it so I was ready to forget the whole thing.

But then yesterday, I found the silicone brush head on clearance at winners for $2!  Sadly though, I wasn't seeing those facial brushes at dollarama at the time.

I told my brother about it at the time I saw it and he ended up getting one.  He never used it so he gave me his, so thankfully I've got a complete system now.

It only retails for $7.99 US on their site, which is just around $10 Canadian.  Thebrush head was only $3 US, which is around $4 Canadian, so winners was way of this time.  I was fine paying two bucks for it though.

It actually feels like it works pretty well with the silicone head so I hope it lasts.  I also really liked the sonic cleanser I bought from winners a while back, but it died in a few months!  I was going to replace that with one from online, but I'll give this one a try instead.

I noticed that the dollarama price is actually printed on this box!  I guess they had some kind of limited run deal or something.  Otherwise, it looks exactly the same as all of the other ones sold online.

Another freebie from L'occitane!  Two of the items are the same as before, but this time they have a oil cleanser.  The set scanned in at $19.50.  They're always so generous with their gifts!

Another subscriber freebie!  They seem to offer something every month.  This one came with such a beautiful smelling candle.

There were a couple I never bothered to try to get.  I remember once they had a 3 pack of barbeque sauce, and one time they had a box of pastries.  There were probably some more, but I can't remember what they were.  If it's been more than 8 hours it doesn't seem very likely.

Another great freebie from L'Occitane!  It scanned in at $25...that's so generous of them!

Though I'm shocked the gift set costs that much when it cost less to buy them separately.  The hand cream is $4, the shampoo is $10, and the divine cream works out
