I shouldn't have posted that... esp at that hour b/c i have no idea where i was going with that. Imo, obviously Great Canadian Gaming Corp and BCLC aren't just being nice with this promo and want people to gamble. It just doesn't seem evil enough where they really have a good chance at your gambling dollars as you can get in and stay clear of the gambling areas.

I know quite a few people who dont gamble at all (some for religious reasons) and couldn't possibly have heard about the promo but did and went to a Casino to pick up a card just for free admission. Beats going to shoppers or save on to save a measily $3 on admission I guess.

Anybody who works there or went there can get me info on Vita-Mix's stand? It is a blender called the Vita-Mix 5200. Just want to know the price of it.
I'm not sure if they have a phone number, which would be a lot easier.

The PNE sucks every year. We all go because it is an annual thing and gives us an excuse to get together with friends/family.

PNE itself might suck but it should be made much better with good people.

So true, CRS. I go because it's about the company you take along or hang out with. Still good times after all these years.

Perhaps the poster needs some fun loving friends?

If I go to something that turns out to be boring, I don't mope around. I take over and make it fun.

Hi, I went to the PNE when it first opened. I was at the Marketplace Place and saw a person selling these cute remote control helicopters. I was wondering if you can get something like that locally. The guy selling it at the PNE is not from here. I think he ws selling these things for 29 bucks. If not, I guess I'll take a chance and buy it at the PNE later on tonight.

It's indeed the last day and it will rain here and there. It won't when I'm there, 'cause I have connections.

those things are a waste of money if u don't have a large room with a tall ceiling that's why it looks neat when they use it indoors in PNE or in shopping malls and using it outside for some reason doesn't work well.
