Not sure if it's worth the hassle of switching to Rogers EPP to get the deal. | It’s funny like EPP plans used to be a hard to get thing or you could only work for very few companies in order to get an EPP plan
Now it seems like on the Telus subreddit etc. people ONLY talk about EPP plans..

Standard version (turbo brush, no electro head) for $499 Electric version (electric brush for medium/thick pile carpet) for $699.
They're generally expected to last 5-10 years or 1000 hours working life.
Mine has headlights to help w/ vacuuming under furniture/darker places and HEPA filtration.

Been on the lookout to restock whey protein, best I could find was CanadianProtein.com since costco doesnt have any deals at the moment.
30% off plus 10% off if you have 3+ of the same product, or 25% off if you have more than $150, plus 10% off with promo code PROTEIN10.

MyProtein I'd look at the raw historical price but normally it's
40% = Reg Price
50% = Sale Price
60% = Actual deep sale

I saw the offer on the app and was going to switch then got sidetracked. Couple days later it was gone, but I called in and they still did it.

5.5lbs of their whey concentrate (84% protein per serving) is $139 sale price, minus 40% off is $83 comes out to about $15 per pound: https://ca.myprotein.com/sports-nutr.../10852500.html
4.4lbs of whey concentrate from canadaprotein (72% protein per serving) after discount was $44, or $10 per lb. 15% less protein per serving but over 30% cheaper per lb. https://canadianprotein.com/products...in-concentrate

My only complaint is when I had one is that it uses a lot of water to clean lol, it likes to run rinse cycle a lot, but that's a good thing in the long run. Don't do super dark roasts with any super auto machine, that tends to gum them up inside.

Canadian protein was always the goat for cheap protein. Nothing can beat it.
I did a big order here. Pricier by quite a bit but it actually taste 6.5/10 if it wasn't a protein product. 11/10 as a protein powder. Got 200 servings for 2024. https://www.bobateaprotein.ca/collections/all-products
