My Most Recent CSN Store Purchase

For simply writing a few posts about CSN Stores I was given a gift certificate to use at one of their multiple stores. DH & I and have been hunting for the right night stands for years. The ones we have found that we liked have all cost way more than we are willing to pay.

I found these on CSN Store. Adding my own money to the gift certifcate, I ordered two for our bedroom.

I also looked at Sears.ca to see if I could find anything comparable.

I found this almost identical night stand. All measurements are the same as the other one. Notice the price. For one of these from Sears, it would cost more than I paid in total (even without the GC), including international fees, shipping & tax for the 2 from CSN Stores.

Is that not unbelievable?

I received my order approx. 2 weeks after ordering - not bad really. Unfortunetly, one of the night stands was damaged and will have to be returned.

The other one looks great!

And you can see how close the wood colour is to my bed.

Nothing lasts anymore

Last year while I was working, I often had to schelp my laptop around. Instead of carrying my heavy laptop case, I thought I would buy a backpack and carry the laptop that way. It worked out pretty well.

Fast forward to the beginning of the school year. J needed a new backpack, so we decided since I wasn't using mine anymore and it was pretty new he would use that.

So here it is only 3 months into the school year and the backpack is almost totally wrecked! He probably throws it around more than I ever did, but still.

So this weekend we will be hunting for kids backpacks.

CSN Review Time Again!

Yes! I have once again been contacted by CSN Stores to review a product of theirs.

I get to pick the product, but it is SO hard!

They literally carry everything there! I mean everything!

You can find purses & bags, kitchenware, home decor and all kinds of furniture, including an ottoman coffee table. These are great dual purposes pieces.


I'll let you all know as soon as I have decided on an item. Oh the choices...
