Flashfood App bragging rights !

Hi Friends....what´s the fun of saving money on groceries if you can´t brag about it once in a while?

Yes, I know....I´ve blogged about the FLASHFOOD app before....but i feel like so many people just don´t realize how much it can help them....especially if they have a large household to feed.

So, on the left is a screen shot of this week´s tiny shopping savings. Not a huge amount of items, but the prices were right on the money!

The bottle of 100% pure Sunflower oil was no where near expiry and the  bottle was almost a ful liter....measuring at 946 ml. Being able to pay $2.23 cdn for a full bottle of sunflower oil is a great bargain! Yay!

It´s always good to buy enough pasta to stock up once in a while....and so, to get my hands on a box of pasta (454 grams ) of high quality pasta for only 84 cdn cents per box....was definitely a win win.

So, I bought 3. 

Years ago, it used to be quite common to be able to buy groceries priced at under $1 cdn. But not anymore.....it is harder to find things under a dollar and so when you see something like a staple such as spaghetti noodles, it is a ¨no brainer¨ to decide to go ahead and buy some at only 84 cents a box.

What is the greatest deal you have discovered lately? Do tell!!

Well friends, if you have access to a smart phone or any device upon which you can download the FLASHFOOD app....I highly encourage you to do so. It will save you money on feeding your family and it allows the grocery stores that participate in the FLASHFOOD program to save a lot of  items from going into the landfill.

Thanks FLASHFOOD!

Have a great weekend all!

Peace,

Why You...Yes YOU! Should upload some Youtube Videos

Friends, have you spent quite a bit more time that you´ll admit....watching youtube videos during the pandemic?

Have you noticed something? 

Now, be honest.....let´s be honest here.

What is the quality of the videos that you currently watch  on Youtube?

Be brutally honest here.

Ok, I am going to start. Most of the videos I have watched on Youtube over the past 2 years of pandemic madness........have been really terrible......like so terrible, you want to go to the time bank and get a refund on all that time you spent watching those videos.

So, am I such a snob that I need to criticize youtube creators that are actually making something creative on youtube? No, not really. I am saying that the quality is pretty bad.......for one reason only.

That reason, is that I want you to admit to yourself, that you could probably make something just as good, if not better than most of the crap that is currently on youtube! Yes, there is room for all of us, who have any kind of creative bug. 

You don´t need any kind of fancy equipment just to get started. A simple smart phone will do the job.

IF you discover that you enjoy making videos, you can always upgrade yourself to be using better equipment, and invest in a fancy camera or editing software. Heck, if you really want to go whole hog, you can hire someone to do the editing for you, so that your videos appear more professional and visually appealing. 

There I said it. There is room for you.....and there is room for me.....on youtube. Maybe you only want to make one tiny little video, to share with your world. That´s ok....you don´t have to do anything.....no one has to do anything. This is about helping more human beings realize their potential in today´s market place.

This is a great season for creatives in the earth today. There are so many platforms. So many ways we can monetize our creative outlets. 

So, this little blog post is just a wee suggestion, to my friends across the world, who needed to hear.....that yes, there is room for you too.....on youtube.

Take a chance. Make a video.

Be surprised, when people actually watch it.

Peace,

Carla
