I purchased this product at No Frills and it can also be purchased at Loblaws. It is thin slices of beef that are already seasoned with Korean spices (it tastes like Korean bbq sauce). They come in a compact cardboard and plastic sleeve and I found it in the frozen meat section.
The beef strips are frozen and the instructions on the package state that you cook them in a pan at high temperature for three to five minutes along with vegetables, if desired. I made a stir fry with my beef strips and added summer vegetables (PC frozen ones). I served it on top off quick cook rice (such as the five minute boxed rice- Minute Rice). The beef strips were SO TENDER after I cooked them.
It was such a quick and extremely easy meal on a hot summer night. I plan on buying it again very soon because all my family members loved it!!

I found this Tropicana Essentials Probiotics Peach Passion Fruit juice at No Frills for $1.99 for 946mL container. For that price, I certainly couldn't pass up the chance to try out this product. It contains 100% juice and puree blend from concentrate. There is no added sugar, or artificial flavours.
It states on the container that it contains one billion active probiotics per 250 mL serving. If you are not regular, than it will fix this within twenty four hours (my own personal experience after drinking two glasses of this juice in the span of six hours).
I would buy this again if it was on sale, but not sure if I would pay regular price for such a small container. I would suggest adding some ice cubes to the juice to water it down a little bit as the consistency is a bit thick.

This strawberry milk tastes quite good. It reminds me of a McDonalds shake, only not as strong a strawberry flavor and definitely not as sweet.
The main reason that I bought this strawberry milk is because I am trying to get more calcium in my diet as well as vitamin D. It contains 25% of your daily amount of calcium, and 45% of your daily amount of vitamin D.
I bought this on sale at No Frills for $1.25 for a 1L carton.

I have tried many different bargain brands, however I have never found one that can measure up to Q-Tips.This brand has been around since I was a little girl, and was ALWAYS used in my home when I was growing up.
There are endless possibilities for these, from makeup application, to using them to clean in between sliding door tracks. I usually buy a multipack of Q-Tips at Walmart for $9.99 which is an outstanding price for the amount of Q-Tips that you get.
I would absolutely recommend this product as bargain brands will bend easily and the amount of cotton will not come close to the amount that is on Q-Tips brand.

Gay Lea Nordica Smooth Cottage Cheese in Salted Caramel

It tasted quite a bit like yogurt, instead of the regular cottage cheese that I am used to. I decided to try it because it was half price at No Frills. I think I would rather stick with the traditional cottage cheese.
If you don't get enough protein in your diet, then I would definitely suggest that you give this product a try, as it provides 10g of protein.
It has a light taste of caramel with a hint of salt, that is not overpowering. I am uncertain if I would purchase this again.

This is my favorite flavor of Quaker oatmeal. It contains little pieces of dried peaches, which I feel adds to the flavor of the oatmeal. Even if you choose to add water instead of milk to your bowl, it still tastes creamy.
I am so happy that this oatmeal goes on sale at No Frills for $1.99 quite frequently.
Whether you eat it for breakfast, or a snack on your coffee break, it is delicious any time of the day.

I usually buy a bunch of these before school commences in September. I have to hide them in my caddy on my filing cabinet because my kindergarten students like to borrow them from time to time. I would be lost without them because I use them every day when I am taking attendance. It never fails, as soon as I have completed this task, one or more of my students will stroll in, and I have to erase or change my attendance cards.
I would highly recommend these erasers.

I do own probably every Alfred Sung perfume that there is. I find this scent to be a very subtle floral, definitely not over- powering. The perfume bottle is simple, yet elegant. I bought this perfume when it was on sale at Shopper's Drug Mart for $19.99, which is a steal compared to the retail price. If you haven't had an opportunity to try this perfume, I suggest that you try it for yourself, especially if it goes on sale for under twenty dollars. -

We are a family of five adults so we use many pots, pans, dishes, glasses, and cutlery on an ongoing basis. I find these gel pacs have such a nice fragrance, makes the kitchen smell so nice while the dishwasher is on. These gel pacs make the entire load of dishes come out clean and shiny. The only critique that I have is they are quite costly, so I only purchase them when they go on sale.
If price is not an option for you, then definitely try them for yourself.

This coffee reminded me of the coffee my dad used to make from his two cup small aluminum espresso coffee maker. If you like a cup of coffee that is very strong or bold, then you will love this product. It is slightly less bitter than an espresso type coffee such as an Americano coffee from McDonald's or Starbucks. For me personally, I found it too strong and had to put a substantial amount of cream and sugar in order for me to drink it. I found the price a bit much, a carton (900ml) at No Frills will cost you almost four dollars. -
