How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Play Defensively! Shoppers Drug Mart #Giveaway

in Lifestyle on

It’s back!! Cold and flu season is back and it’s here with a vengeance!  I don’t know if it’s the strange fall then summer, then fall again weather we have been having, or if my little family has just been terribly unlucky, but for the last two weeks we’ve not been sharing the love, we’ve been sharing the Kleenex and cold medicine! 

“According to Health Canada, in a typical year, up to an estimated 25 per cent or about 8.6 million Canadians come down with the seasonal flu.”   When your entire family gets knocked down by a virus, the best way to get through it is to be prepared for it in the first place!  Having a few favourite (and essential) cold remedies stocked in the house can make a difference between survival with a smile and true misery. 

ShoppersColdPrizeShoppers Drug Mart has generously offered one of my readers a chance to win a stocked Cold and Flu Defense Kit to help prevent the flu and manage those cold symptoms when they do occur!

    2. I think, washing your hands is super important to prevent getting a cold or the flu! If you end up with either, rest and lots of fluids.

    6. At the first sign of having a cold I like to take a massive dose of Vitamin C, it seems to mitigate the duration of the illness.
