Rachel's shaving-cream secret: I swear by shaving with conditioner, especially the little samples left over in my roommate's hair dye kits. Softest skin I've EVER had, for next to nothing.
Angèle's favourite money-saving card: Another card that's my life saver for a while now is the Student Price Card, always "SPC". It practically pays for itself and is good for a year at so many stores and food places!
(Angèle, did you get yours in the UW student agenda? I don't know that they're available to us at RRC, I'll have to check it out!)
Yvonne's paper-writing fuel of choice is the Falafel Place on Corydon Ave. at Wilton. Sounds like an incredible amount of good food at a student's price! I highly recommed checking out her blog for a detailed description of the full experience.
And last but not least, the Winnipeg Free Press' Reena Nerbas serves up a comprehensive list of home remedies for the home! Check out her website to find out more about her books, and don't miss her column in weekend editions of the newspaper for more great tips! My current favourite: olive oil for doctoring leather furniture. I wonder if it works on shoes...
Coming soon: home stain-removal remedies. I'll post ones that I've tried successfully - unfortunately they haven't all been zingers!
I'm with Rachel on the conditioner thing, works like a charm!
ReplyDeleteagreed indeed!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips!
ReplyDeleteHow about "get-rich-quick" tips?
I didn't know the Falafel Place had moved further up Corydon. Many good food memories...
ReplyDeleteAw, Kenton, if I knew the perfect get-rich-quick scheme, I'd have made good on it by now! If you have any ideas, maybe we could do an interview that I could feature on the blog?
