Currently in Tokyo now and they hand out flyers with a pack of tissue paper with it. I collected so much that I could use them for a month when I come back to Vancouver

Was talking to my GF about getting another AC unit this year and came across this at Costco. Not bad for 14K BTU and can't beat the return policy. Ends today though.

Not a bad AC but as an owner of the older version of this, it's loud as fuck (as is the case with most portable AC units). I had to buy a portable around 2010-ish as my building banned window units, so I took my Danby window unit back to Costco (which I bought in 2004, god I love Costco) and exchanged it for the Danby Premiere 14,000 BTU portable AC.

I was honestly considering getting that Forest Air portable mini split to replace mine as a mini split is way more efficient and way quieter (since the compressor is outside), but $800 is on the steep side.

Now that it's dollar drink days at McD's, I don't go as often to 7-Eleven to get my daily Diet Coke®. I'll go to get my stars, though.

In high school (98 or 99) they used to have hamburgers for $22 and cheeseburgers for $33 with no limit and not just a one day special. Go in with a twoonie and walk out with 8 hamburgers.

Huh... why don't you just buy a case of 12 or 24 from Superstore? It's like roughly $0.30 a can.

We've had this discussion on RS a few times. It's not the same. Fountain drinks are way better than bottled or canned stuff.

It's like canned ravioli vs freshly made ones. Maybe not as dramatic, but you get the idea.


If you are a ketchup connoisseur, it's like ones made with high fructose corn syrup vs ones made from cane sugar.


BTW, I get two six packs of 700 mL pop for 5 bucks from Shoppers Drug Mart. Each bottle is is twice that of a can. Anyway.................

Oh, best deal is when I use those coupons from the survey. Buy any sandwich and get medium fries and medium drink for free. I use my PNE refillable cup, which is slightly larger than a large size McD drink. They don't even ask. What's even better is when I go up to the kiosk and pay via gift card or credit card and just go right to the fountain machine. None of this waiting BS. Is this the Frugal Asian thread? Right.

McDonald's Canada - First-ever McDonald?s® in Canada celebrates re-opening with original Golden Arches?

67 cent hamburgers again only at one location
Quote:
RICHMOND, June 21, 2017 - This year marks McDonald’s Canada’s 50th anniversary and to commemorate the milestone, the restaurant chain will be re-opening the doors to its first-ever Canadian location in Richmond, BC on Friday, June 23rd.

For the opening weekend, the restaurant is celebrating loudly and proudly with some nostalgic elements, including original uniforms, a vintage car, classic images over the past 50 years and a throwback to 1967 with a special one-day $0.67 hamburger special.

“Returning the iconic Golden Arches to their original home is a very special moment, and one that we are happy to share with the community, residents and long-time guests,” said Joe Guzzo, McDonald’s Richmond Franchisee. “I am thrilled to build on the rich history that this location has by modernizing the restaurant and the experience for all our guests. We look forward to welcoming the City of Richmond and all community members back to the restaurant to check out our new look while enjoying some fun little nuggets from our past.”

Of course, the celebration would not be complete without a special guest appearance by the chain’s very own Ronald McDonald®, who will be delighting guests on opening day. Throughout the festivities the restaurant will also be giving away a variety of prizes to restaurant and drive thru guests.

Community members and guests are invited to join in the fun by visiting the newly renovated restaurant on No.3 road. It will feature innovative elements including self-order kiosks, McCafé® Bakery and a modern look and feel – with wood and stone finishes. In addition, guests will see the original Golden Arches back in their place, as well as a commemorative plaque and a piece of brick from the original building.

“This restaurant is a tremendous source of pride for our McFamily,” said Shelly Hansen, Regional Vice President, Western Canada, McDonald’s Canada. “Fifty years ago, we were thrilled to start our McDonald’s Canada journey, right here in BC. Today, we feel very happy and fortunate to celebrate this significant milestone with the community that has supported us for so many years.”

Fun Facts
June 1, 1967 First McDonald’s restaurant in Canada opens in Richmond, BC
Currently, there are 197 McDonald’s restaurants in British Columbia
Local franchisee Joe Guzzo owns 13 McDonald’s restaurants and has been with the company for four decades, first as an employee and now as a franchisee

Can vs fountain aren't the same, but they are both good in their own ways. If I want a good refreshing coke, I would not spend 3 time as much for a fountain when a chilled can of coke is just as good.

I find the survey deal is actually the best deal out of all the deals McD has to offer, even the coupons. Mainly because you can get a 10 piece meal for $6. This beats any meal deal or bogo.

don't they still sell ps4/xb1 (albeit small section) so you can benefit from a tax free system and accessories?

Shell is doing their $0.05/litre off Air Miles promo again. Last time they did it (May?), they bumped it up to $0.06/litre off. They advertised it as up to 100 litres, but either it didn't work properly or they meant 100 litres/fill because we got the 6 cents off on every fill throughout the promotion on both vehicles (well in excess of 100 litres).

Ladysmith's Shell happened to have their own $0.03/litre off Air Miles promo which stacked for $0.09/litre off.

Quote:
Here’s how to choose your offer:

1. Text the word SHELL to the phone number 111222 before July 5, 2017. Standard message rates apply.
2. You will then be asked to provide your AIR MILES Card Number. Enter it and send that as a follow-up text message.
3. Choose which offer you would like to get:

Text A if you would like to get 5¢ off per litre on up to 100 L of fuel when you pay in-store.

Text B if you would like to get 5 AIR MILES Bonus Miles for every $10 you spend, up to a maximum of 50 Bonus Miles.
4. Your offer will be loaded onto your AIR MILES Card and ready to use between July 14 and July 27, 2017. We will confirm by text on July 14.

Here's a hack for MG1. Looks like total cost is nothing, but your free time:

You won't believe what this passenger did ...

Quote:
A PASSENGER has been busted using his airline ticket in a rather surprising way.
The man used his first-class ticket to score free meals and drinks at a VIP airport lounge nearly every day for a year, the Kwong Wah Yit Poh reported.

He changed his flight itinerary more than 300 times within the year so he could enjoy the facilities at the Xi'an Airport in Shaanxi, China.

What's more, he cancelled his ticket for a refund when its validity was about to expire.
Staff members were less than impressed to discover what the man was up to, but a spokesman said there was no way to stop this "rare" act.
