I have always loved eating out at Swiss Chalet! My Grandpa is the worlds PICKIEST eater so as a kid it was basically Subway, Peter's Drive Thru, or Swiss Chalet lol. The best part was always the Chicken Dipping Sauce, and I have just recently discovered that they sell the Sauce Mix for it in 36g bags in the Gravy/Sauce Mix Section at the grocery store so my Husband and I can enjoy the famous sauce at home. I have personally only ever bought this Sauce mix at Walmart, and to be honest I've never paid enough attention anywhere else to be able to say for sure, but I would imagine various Grocery Store chains would carry it. Tastes EXACTLY like it does in-house, and is SUPER easy to whip up. Takes less than 10 mins. I've only used the Stove-Top Method, but Microwave Instructions are provided on the back of the package as well. -
Home Depot - Mistinted Paints

I love DIY-ing, especially little Home Renos or Updates, but supplies for such tasks are usually not cheap! Out of all the places I've ever looked (which is a LOT!) Home Depot wins the Best Price Comparison by a Mile when it comes to Mistinted paints:
$1.00 for Sm.Color Samples/Tintable Testers. The ones I've bought are Behr Marquee, and CIL Duo Brands that range from 214ml - 235ml
$3.00 for 1 Quart (857ml-946ml) I've found Behr Premium Plus, Behr Premium Plus ULTRA, and Behr Marquee.
$9.00 for 1 Gallon (approx 3.78L) I've got Behr Premium Plus ULTRA, and Behr Marquee.
Behr is clearly the dominating brand in my collection, and while that paint really is awesome and produces High Quality Results and mixes sooo well!, I've always strictly bought based on color, don't even really look at the brand. For these prices?! You simply can't go wrong no matter what. However if there's happens to be 2 similar colours that are different brands, I've been told by a few people that the Marquee line of the Behr Brand is likely the Highest Quality. Every visit to Home Depot is a surprise because the options/stock are different day to day in the Mistinted Pile. But checking back regularly really is worth it!! They sometimes have various wood stains as well, (damaged can, Mistinted, only partially full, etc.) If there is stain in the 'oops' pile, most of the time I've seen them actually offered as FREE! TIPS:•The plastic containers the Sm testers/samples come in are super easy to clean out and reuse!! •Anytime you pick-up a 1Gallon can or Larger (sometimes the have 5Gallon) I always ask for stir sticks. Even if you're buying the cheap Mistints, 99% of the time you'll still get at least 1 if not 2 FREE stir sticks.

Bounce fabric softener sheets in sweet dreams
LOVE these!! They smell amazing!! Provide the standard functions/purposes of dryer sheets in the laundry. Average price overall I would say. Couple bucks more than the Fleecy Brand, that's about the only comparison I can come up with. Seriously... +
LOVE these!! They smell amazing!! Provide the standard functions/purposes of dryer sheets in the laundry. Average price overall I would say. Couple bucks more than the Fleecy Brand, that's about the only comparison I can come up with. Seriously though, I can't tell you enough how AMAZING these smell!!!!! -

I love how quick and convenient these are for removing eye makeup!! I never bought into the bottled makeup remover. I have no doubt they do the job well, it just never seemed to stick in my routine. These are my one and only Go-To. I use them on my hands too after I finish doing my make up. They're gear for getting concealer off your fingers if you aren't using any sort of sponge applicator. -

Frizz Control, Shine Booster, Intense Nourishing, Incredible Smell, Smooth and Sleek, but Not Too Oily Texture. This product has if all. Been using it for years and it's a must have in my daily hair care regiment. It can cost a fortune in hair salons, or other "regular" retailers. WINNERS is the ONLY place I buy it from. A big bottle that lasts me around 8-10 months would cost anywhere from $75-$150 anywhere else. $19.99 at WINNERS. -

I never stop being amazed at just how fast these things can LITERALLY ERASE just about anything. They cut scrubbing by I'd say 75%. Such a lifesaver!! I have yet to find a task they couldn't tackle. My only complaint it that once wet, I've found that they fall apart incredibly fast. -

One of my favourite things about this product is the price! Very affordable and even with daily use, the bottle lasts because it has such great coverage, a little goes a long way. I've tried so many different foundation products over the years and this is hands-down my favourite that I continuously use on my entire face. The consistency is perfect! Thin enough that it's wicked easy to spread evenly, but not so thin that's it's runny or messy. I get the sane even-toned coverage whether I'm using my fingers or an applicator sponge to apply. I have found that as tempting as it is to put moisturizer on my face prior to using foundation, that my forehead and chin tend to get shiny and oily if I use lotion first. This product provides enough hydration for the skin to skip the lotion before hand. -
St. Ives® Acne Control Apricot Scrub

This product is awesome!! I had awful acne when I was a teenager, and I tried just about every product on the market it seemed like, but there was always a drawback. Too harsh for daily use, smelled bad, burned my skin, didn't provide results, etc, etc. It was actually my Aunt that turned me onto the St. Ives product line and I've never looked back!! I use this face scrub everyday, sometimes 2 times a day if I need to scrub makeup off in the morning from the night before. It's gentle enough for heavy use, but VERY effective. Even when I'm not experiencing and breakouts or blemishes, my skin just feels fresh, clean, and smooth after using this scrub. I don't just use it on my face either. My neck, chest, tops of my shoulders, and strange as it may sound, I use it to scrub and rinse my armpits before I apply shaving cream. It helps clear away dead skin and allows for a nice close shave and has eliminated razor burn/bumps/irritation. -
