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.

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.
