[SkinnyPupp]

What scarf?

Those look like they might be cold for the people who are volunteering outside!

[Harvey Specter]

Not bad for free stuff.

[Durrann]

all the hoodies at the bay are sold like hot cakes

[Razor Ramon HG]

Reading through that makes me wish I applied to be a volunteer, damn, aha.

[bcedhk]

i laugh at the guys who wear the uniform and walking around town like they are the shit and give you a show-off star/stance when waiting for the bus.

[Gumby]

Saw one in person today - I like the blue. Not bad for something free!

[jackmeister]

i'd buy it if it was reasonably priced, but seeing how everything is priced, this probably would cost like $600

[K-Dub]

If there are any extras left over, they are going to sell them off. I wish I had one, the color is niiiiiice. I just have a boring black uniform from work.

[Okami]

these are prob gonna be on craigslist so just buy them after XD

[wuuhoo]

damn i wish i applied to work. those uniforms look awesome

[eurochevy]

Do you think we're going to see a lot of those blue volunteer jackets being worn even after the olympics? or are people going to sell them/ keep them forever in their closet as a souvenir ? lol

[Okami]

those hoodies were so common during boxing day.. i guess it kinda one of those hype things like when the canucks get into the playoffs :/ (damn bandwagon jumpers)

LOL

what....LOLLOLOLOLOLLLL

[-lincolnboi-]

wow, apparently they've discontinued the canada zip up sweaters :cry:

oh, and i checked out the quilt store in metro, they're selling olympic plushes for cheaper than the bay/vanoc website

[UnDeadMage]

lol im working at the media center and i hide when i go home on the bus. it stands out too much and i dont like it but the quality is sorta nice.

[suzuka84]

which company is supplying vanoc?

[ASG111]

a little bit off topic but was watching the CTV channel earlier on the week. Do the reporters get free Armani suits? That's pretty pimp if they are. It did say Armani from Holt Renfrew was the official sponsor of wardrobe to CTV. I wonder how it works, they get to choose any stuff they want...

[MelonBoy]

they make 14 dolla an houra!


lol.. they dont make anything there volunteers :P... they pretty mcuh work 8-10hours having 10-15shifts... all they get is satisfaction of working, a ticket or 2, a few prizes like stuff animals and there uniform.. (which is totally underdressed, iv noticed the majority of them are freezing there nads off)

[mc.]

yea man, that uniform is not very warm at all, i have to swear sweats and a sweater underneath just to keep warm, and im working in vancouver. they dont even supply you with gloves, just handwarmers.

what handwarmers?!

[Okami]

are those jackets worth $100? i got this guy selling to me. thanks

[mc.]

what handwarmers?!

yea, i sit outside all day, and its cold in the morning and at night, so theres a bunch of handwarmers for us.

They're awesome, they get pretty hot if you stick them in your gloves. The package says that it can get up to 70 degrees!

[death_blossom]

are those jackets worth $100? i got this guy selling to me. thanks

they're worth more IMO. but yeah, I'm interested to see what these outfits will go for on craigslist when the Olympics are over, hehe.

[Ulic Qel-Droma]

why would u wanna wear a bright baby blue jacket other than to stand out like a construction worker does with his bright yellow jacket?

[wolfwood]

Yeah, why would you want to wear those AFTER the Olympic? For some of the HBC stuff, sure, coz they look pretty nice but the Smurf blue? I'll laugh if someone actually buys the whole set from CL and prance around with it around town! :thumbsup:
