The awesome email service we use to provide you all with free email updates, Feedblitz, has an amazing feature that I’m sure many of you will enjoy!
Previously, we only offered one email subscription option. That was to receive every single post that popped up on Simply Frugal in one daily email. Now, you can subscribe to get only the posts you want to read via email! For example, if only the freebies interest you, subscribe to get emails with only the newest freebies!
Here are the subscription options:
Daily Full Feed – This is for those who don’t want to miss a thing. You’ll receive an email every afternoon with all the deal posts and content posts found SimplyFrugal.ca in the last 24 hours. There are usually 10-15 posts per day in this email. Perfect for those who don’t want to miss any great deals.
Daily LITE Feed – This is for those who don’t want to receive the store deals, coupons or freebies, but who are looking for money-saving tips, DIY Projects, household tips, and articles. You’ll receive an email once a day with all the non-deal posts found on SimplyFrugal.ca in the last 24 hours. There are usually 1-3 posts per day in this email.
Coupon Match Ups – This is for those who would like to only receive the weekly coupon match ups. You’ll receive this email Friday mornings.
Canadian Freebies -This is for those who would like to only receive the posts with the newest freebies. You’ll receive an email once a day with all the freebies found on SimplyFrugal.ca in the last 24 hours.
Canadian Coupons – This is for those who would like to only receive the posts with the newest coupons. You’ll receive an email once a day with all the coupon posts found on SimplyFrugal.ca in the last 24 hours.
Store Deals – This is for those who want to keep up to date on all the latest sales happening online or in-store at Canadian retailers. You’ll receive an email once a day with all the store deal posts found on SimplyFrugal.ca in the last 24 hours.
Get Organized – This is for those who are bound and determined to get organized. You’ll receive an email once a day with all the Get Organized in January posts as well as any organization tips found on SimplyFrugal.ca in the last 24 hours.
NOTE: If you subscribe to the Daily FULL Feed, you’ll receive all of the subscription options in one email. There’s no need to sign up for each option separately.

Starting on today, November 1, 2012, for the rest of the year the
Swagbucks Swag Store will be bringing you lower prices and limitless rewards. To break it down for you, all $5 gift cards will now be 500 Swag Bucks, $10 gift cards will be 1000 Swag Bucks, $25 Gift Cards will be 2500 Swag Bucks and so on. This excludes the $5 Amazon.com, which remains the bargain price of 450 SB.
Now you get more bang for your (Swag) Bucks, and with your leftover Swag Bucks, you can now snag even more rewards, because our old monthly redemption limits (except the $5 Amazon.com Gift Card) will be gone. You’re still limited to 2 rewards per day, but you don’t have to worry about which prizes you’re redeeming, because Swagbucks just expanded your monthly SB budget!

**We’ve gotten some great feedback already, but we would love to hear from more of you, if you could fill it out! 🙂
So I’m feeling as though Simply Frugal needs to do some changing. Liven things up a bit, if you will.
But of course, we couldn’t make any changes without hearing from you guys first. I’d really like it if you could help us out by giving some suggestions on what you’d like to see at Simply Frugal. Tips on how we can improve or new features we could implement. Or even if you were the one writing for Simply Frugal, how would you overhaul it? Go nuts with your suggestions!
I’ve created a document that will make it easy for you to answer anonymously. If you’d please click here to fill it out, that’ would be great!
Thanks so much for helping us!!

Here’s a question from Sharon:
Do you know the best Canadian website to buy a Vitamix blender?
Sharon is preferably looking for an online site that offers free shipping. Since she lives in Nova Scotia, she’s thinking it may not be easy to find one in a local store. Do you have any suggestions for her?
Added: Take a look at Amazon.ca! They seem to have a nice selection of Vitamix blenders!
