What did you think of this insert's coupons?
I wanted to remind you that you can call your local paper if you do not receive your paper, and ask them to make sure you are on the "deliver" list. You can also ask if they have drop boxes where you can pick up the papers. PLEASE do not take all the papers or worse, all the coupon inserts. I've had a number of people tell me this week that they either took a free paper or bought a paper, and then proceeded to take all the coupon inserts from the other papers. That in my opinion is stealing, and unfair to others who might be purchasing the paper for the coupon inserts.
If you are looking for extra inserts, ask your neighbours, friends or family, to put theirs aside for you if they do not use them. If you live in a condo/townhouse, my rule of thumb for taking more than 1 coupon insert is anytime after Sunday, if the papers are still there, then help yourself. Give others a chance to get their paper/coupon insert first but if they are still there Monday morning then they are a free-for-all, in my opinion. Check your communal recycling bin as they can be goldmines when it comes to coupon inserts. Also, please do not take coupon inserts out of the papers that are for sale at the stores or at the self-serve kiosks.
I frequent my local McDonalds or coffee shops and ask if I can have a couple extra inserts if no one is needing them and I've never been turned away. Most people just want to read the paper and the flyers/coupon inserts are left behind and happy couponers like myself are usually welcome to take a few home, saving them from the recycling bin.
I have 3 extra copies of the insert, so if you did not get one this week and would like one, please post under the post "Want a SmartSource?" on the MrsSmith Facebook page here and I will get it out to the first 3 people who post saying that they would like the insert.

Free Green Magma
I came across a new-to-me product called Green Magma recently. From their site, I learned that "Dr.Hagiwara's Green Magma is a highly nutritious, mildly alkaline powder made from organic barley grass juice."
Green Magma is now offering 5 free samples of their product to both US and Canada, and shipping is free! Go here to order your samples. I did put a request for them to indicate "samples only, no charge" in the "shipping section" as I don't know if these are being shipped from the States, and don't want to get any customs/brokerage fees placed on these samples.
Please note, I have never tried this product so cannot vouch for it nor for any shipping. Try at your own risk.

Test drive a GM vehicle and get $10
Looks like GM's restructuring includes reaching out to consumers with incentives including this one: a $10 gas gift card. From their site: "Join us at one of our test drive events happening across Canada, and take an award-winning vehicle out for a ride. It's a no-pressure, no-hassle way to test drive a new vehicle, and you will receive a $10 Gas Gift Card as our thanks to you."
There is a schedule of Test Drive events all across Canada. In Vancouver, there are 2 remaining: June 12 - 13 at the Willowbrook Shopping Centre and June 19 - 20 at Lansdowne Centre. For other locations, please check the GM site.
On top of the Gas Gift card, once you've completed your test drive, you'll be entered for a chance to win the Ultimate Ride as well as one of 10 Dell netbooks. Go here to enter to win a GM vehicle! From the GM site:"Enter for a chance to win your dream vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick, GMC or Cadillac. The lucky winner will also receive the ultimate driver's package - gas gift cards, and three years of OnStar® Premium Services, XM Satellite RadioTM, and GM Goodwrench Services®."
Enter now and you'll also be automatically eligible to win the monthly prize - a Dell Inspiron Mini 10 Netbook. Plus, if you're the Primary Cardholder of The GM Card®, you'll receive $10 in GM Card Earnings.
It's been a while since I've driven a GM vehicle, as I drove a Pontiac years ago. We also have a Sunfire currently, although Mr.Smith would love to have a GM truck. I still dream of getting him that vehicle one of these days. Perhaps with this contest? ;)
If you own and drive a GM, you can also share your thoughts about your vehicle for a chance to win a $100 gift card. Go here to do so.

Tylenol and Motrin recall
From the Vancouver Sun site:
Eleven formulations of over-the-counter children’s cold and allergy medicine are being recalled in Canada as part of a larger worldwide recall for failing to meet quality standards.
McNeil Consumer Healthcare said Saturday that all lots of Children’s Motrin and Infant’s Motrin liquid suspension products and Children’s Tylenol Cough & Runny Nose liquid suspension products are being recalled.
No other Canadian product is affected, the company said in a release.
The company said the recall was issued, in consultation with Health Canada, because “these products may not fully meet the required manufacturing specifications.”
The company said the recalled products do not pose a safety risk to children who have consumed them.
In the United States, more than 40 over-the-counter kids medications under the brand names Tylenol, Tylenol Plus, Motrin, Zyrtec and Benadryl are being recalled by the company, a subsidiary of pharmaceutical and health care giant Johnson & Johnson.
The affected products in Canada are:
• Infant’s Motrin Suspension Drops Dye-Free, 30 ml (DIN 02238626)
• Infant’s Motrin Suspension Drops Dye-Free, 15 ml (DIN 02238626)
• Children’s Motrin Suspension Dye-Free, 120 ml (DIN 02242365)
• Children’s Motrin Suspension, 120 ml (DIN 02242365)
• Children’s Motrin Suspension Grape, 120 ml (DIN 02242365)
• Children’s Motrin Suspension Grape, 30 ml (DIN 02242365)
• Children’s Motrin Suspension Bubblegum, 120 ml (DIN 02242365)
• Children’s Motrin Suspension Tropical Punch, 120 ml (DIN 02242365)
• Infant’s Motrin Suspension for Fever due to Colds/Flu, 30 ml (DIN 02238626)
• Children’s Motrin Suspension for Fever due to Colds/Flu, 120 ml (DIN 02242365)
• Children’s Tylenol Cough & Runny Nose Suspension, 100 ml (DIN 02292122)
Company spokeswoman Tina Peyregatt says no illnesses have been reported so far, and stresses no other infant’s or children’s Tylenol products are affected, nor are any medicines in tablet form.
“We want to make sure Canadians aren’t concerned or panicking” about products that aren’t on the recall list, she said, adding she doesn’t expect the list to grow.
Asked whether children who may have consumed the product are in any danger, Peyregatt said no.
“There’s no safety concern,” she said. “This is a precautionary measure.”
The issue is that some products may not meet manufacturing specifications, she said, noting the recall is voluntary.
While some items in the U.S. recall reportedly contain higher concentrations of an active ingredient than specified, Peyregatt said that is not the case in Canada.
Customers are nonetheless urged to stop using the recalled products and contact the company at 1-888-222-6036 or visit www.jnjcanada.com for more information.
“The company is conducting a comprehensive quality assessment across its manufacturing operations and has identified corrective actions that will be implemented before new manufacturing is initiated at the U.S. plant where the recalled products were made,” the company said.
