#RBCRewards101 for Back to School!

Posted by on 1 Comment

It’s that time of year again and we all know how much work it is getting our children ready, to go back to school. On average, parents end up spending $428 per child on back to school items. (Source) Everything adds up quickly! So why not earn something back in the process!

I have been an RBC customer for many years now and have taken advantage of the RBC Rewards program using my visa, but I had no idea that you could also use their eMall for online shopping to earn up to 12x the points! I’m a big fan of rewards programs that pay off and I have received some great benefits, like gift cards, from the RBC Rewards I have earned, by only using the credit card. So, I decided to check this out!

First I watched all of the HOW-TO-VIDEOS on the RBC Rewards website to make sure I knew what I was doing. I didn’t want to miss out on any points offers! The videos really helped me to learn how to use the RBC Rewards website.

Triple Flip Clothing for Back to School

Posted by on 1 Comment

Now that my children are getting bigger, they are heading into the dreaded tween stage. Is it really that horrible? Probably not, but finding clothes for them is getting harder and harder. There aren’t that many places to find good quality, comfortable, clothes for tween girls, especially in Atlantic Canada. My girls have grown out of most of the kids stores, and the adult stores are either inappropriate, or boring! I was dreading back to school shopping, until I heard about Triple Flip from Calgary, Alberta.

The original Triple Flip girls, Linda Maslechko and Mona Rae Peterson, along with their daughters and friends started Triple Flip for just those reasons I mentioned above. “There simply were not enough choices or great places for girls to shop. There needed to be a place to find clothes that actually fit. Clothes that came in fun colors and looked fabulous. Clothes that were so incredibly comfortable that you could dance in them, run in them, sleep in them, or flip in them.” I think these ladies have exceeded their goal. The clothes at Triple Flip are colourful, fun, fit wonderfully and are excellent quality.
