24 bottles of spring water for $1.00 at No Frills. Holiday Luncheon Meat also $1.00 each. Time to hoard, lol.
The luncheon meat is pretty good and it is less salty compared to other brands.
I bought two cases last time.

time to get some lucheon meat
I hate to disappoint the B!tch, but I only purchased a flat of 12 tins. Expiry date on the luncheon meat is August 30, 2022. Even if I opened one every month........... Anyway, saw people buying 12 flats, which is the limit. WTF? Now that, my friends, is hoarding. But, as I recall, exactly one year ago, someone on RS explained what these people do with all that stuff. They send the stuff back to Asia where canned meat in some areas is very expensive and impossible to get. So, do you call it hoarding, B!tch?
I did get two flats of bottled water, however. I use them to water the flowers at my wife's final resting place. Water is turned off this time of the year at most cemeteries. I've been going to see her every day now for five years. I grow the most beautiful Dahlias in the Lower Mainland, along with a variety of roses and gladiolus. Irises and crocuses in the spring. Now that its winter, I rely on cut flowers from............. from.............. from........... COSTCO! Gawd, why the fuck am I trying to justify myself to that B!tch?
Anyway, god bless...............

Yeah, Spam is really salty. Great for Spam Musubi, but not great for anything else.
I use the luncheon meat when I make yakisoba/ramen. Fry it with mirepoix and over yakisoba, with shredded fried eggs and kizami nori (shredded seaweed) or aonori (flaked seaweed). Red picked ginger on the side. Oh, oh, oh............ forgot - I got some pickled plum paste the other day. Gotta go make some yakisoba today.

................hangover cure?
Hahaha...... just opened one up. Holiday Luncheon Meat is made here in Canada. Maple Leaf Foods.
As a kid, I remember they had Klik and Kam brand luncheon meat. I loved using the key to open the cans. My mom made sure I got to open the cans. Nowadays, Spam has them "easy-open" cans, taking all the fun out of opening the cans with the key.
When I prep the luncheon meat, I cut the meat in the can. All it takes is a butter knife. Even slices off the top part and then even slices down to the bottom from the lip. You can even dice them if you use a paring knife. Pull out slowly and be careful = perfectly diced luncheon meat. Save from having to use and wash the cutting board, lol.

Cobb's bread promo. Buy 6 scones or tarts and you get any loaf of bread free. Coupon from website but they weren't really checking.
I always wait for that coupon. Pumpkin Scones with cream cheese glaze, ftmfw!
The loaf of bread, meh!

Scones run about $2.x each and they have many original and creative flavours. But MG1, the loaf is actually were it's at ... they have a lot of healthy grain loafs with lots of seeds ... really good stuff and they are like >$5-6 each.

Anyone here use Revscene for a discount at Lordco? For a while now the account says must show a club card. Not sure where you get a card?
Can anyone recommend another account with a discount?

I do have another one that should not be shared publicly. PM sent.

Wow ... level 7 ... what does that translate to in terms of % off. I get 30-40% off regularly with my personal account and thought that was pretty damn good. I find that most clerks will give you a substantial discount if you just ask. But it does look like they can decide the % ... any Lordco insiders here want to anonymously give us some insider tips?
It’s not always a percentage amount. Some items are marked up a certain amount and like you said, the guy you deal with can give you a really good discount. Like a store manager. It pays to be a loyal and friendly customer.
And, it sounds like you have level 7 or close to. Plus, Lordco regular price is way more than anywhere else. Still, good place to get parts. Love supporting local.

In regards to lordco, I have a hard time giving them and their sales associates any credit with how hard they fuck people. The worst are the clowns who ask for ID or proof of your membership in the account you’re trying to use, like just stfu and give me the discount.
I worked at lordco for a time when I was into building cars, I purchased an ACT stage 3 clutch for a friend with my employee discount
If you had walked in off the street and grabbed it off the shelf, brought it to the counter - $1150
If you got the slightest discount without a clue how the lordco system works - $870
With my employee discount? - $550
I remember they got all pissy when I special ordered an edelbrock intake manifold for a B18C5, the thing took so long to come I forgot I ordered it. When it finally arrived like 3 months later the manager tried to ring it up for me I was like lol bro, the motor in that car is already blown son, I ain’t buying that. Apperently it was non-returnable etc. Lol

My 12-year-old Dell Ultrasharp 2408WFP gave up the ghost after our last power outage earlier this week, so I'm looking for a new monitor.
Monitors with all the latest and greatest are frickin' expensive. I got the Dell for $450 back then (on sale from $700) and it had pretty much everything except a 10-bit IPS panel (the Dell had an 8-bit S-PVA panel), wide-gamut backlighting, and a hood relative to what else was available at the time.
Now the top-end monitors with all the fancy tech (4K, Mini-LED local dimming, HDR1000+ certification, Displayport 1.4, HDMI 2.1, 10-bit IPS panel, Freesync Premium Pro and/or G-Sync Ultimate, etc.) are running ... like $4000+? And they're impossible to find even with those prices.
Even dropping my wants to 4K, HDR600 cert, 8-bit+FRC IPS/VA panel, and Freesync Premium Pro/G-Sync Ultimate still looks like $1500-$2000 and stock is still extremely sparse.
That LG CX 48" OLED TV is looking mighty fine at $2000 relative to dedicated monitors (although OLED has its own caveats from what I've been reading).
Is this just a pandemic thing or have decent monitors just skyrocketed in price over the last decade?

The best way to determine the best option is to see your need, and your computer spec and go from there.
I'm using the LG 5k hooked to my MBP. As I don't do much gaming, so resolution and color accuracy is crucial for me, and the fact that it basically works as a hub for my MBP.

I went to Lordco today. I used an account with 30% to price out some rear Brake rotors and pads for an 04 Mazda 3 Sport wagon. $189 tax in for basic Lordco blanks and Raybestos pads. I walked out and went next door to Key2 Auto Parts (locally owned) and it was $125 tax in. And they were actually thankful I came in to give them the business. They often have lower prices than Canadian Tire for automotive paint as well.
Rock auto was cheaper but it felt good to support local.

Still enjoying free A&W large coffees all month. One location near me opens at 10am wtf. Talk about island time.
Just download the app and place the order when you arrive. Then go through the drive thru.
I get my coffee at the A&W inside Lougheed Mall. Schoolhouse location when I'm fast charging at the station at Coquitlam Superstore parking lot.

K, based on MG1 advice, I went back to A&W for a coffee, it was free so what is there to lose, right? It was terrible ... absolutely no coffee flavour whatsoever. If you don't mind A&W coffee (or if you even say you 'like' it), have you tried McD's coffee ... that is great affordable coffee, smooth, nice flavour. In fact, I prefer that over SB any day and all day.
Good. I thought maybe you had Covid symptoms - no sense of taste or smell. I agree McD’s coffee is better than most of the cheap coffees out there. I never figured out what’s so great about SB coffee. 7-Eleven, Timmy Ho’s, A&W, Wendy’s, etc. cofffee’s are all in the same category. I’m not a coffee drinker. I like coffee in my creamer. Lol.
I also don’t claim to be a connoisseur.
I do like Iced Frappuccino.
Free fountain drink with purchase using app and only at A&W locations in a mall. On till the 6th of December. A bit of a pain and not good if you don’t like any of their burgers. You have to put in code:BlackFriday. If you’re in Metrotown or Lougheed Mall, it might be worth it? It didn’t speficy what size. Most likely medium.

Gaming obviously. Spreadsheets and lots of them. Programming (mainly GCL+). Multiple inputs is a must (GF and I have our desks side-by-side, so she uses it as a second display for her iMac Retina 5K 27" for graphic design/photoediting when I'm not using it; she's a freelance graphic designer ... thus the requirement for good colour accuracy). Adjustable stand (or VESA mounting) so it can be rotated and adjusted as needed. USB hub is nice to have.
Since the Dell went down, I've been using my even older Sony MFM-HT75W monitor from 2005, which looks actually surprisingly good for a 15-year-old monitor (better than my 3-year-old work monitor) but the low resolution (1280x768) just kills productivity.

Bath and Body Works is having their Annual Black Friday, Buy 3 get 3 sale. Entire store's inventory. Usually only Black Friday, but because of Covid, it's on all week. I've been there twice already. You can use their $10 off coupon, if you have it. New members only. Also get a coupon after each purchase. I thought only kinky chicks liked this stuff (Superfreak - Prince reference). I must be getting in touch with my feminine side....
Anyway, I like their car fragrances. They have sample/testers. I really like the Gingham and Linen (subtle scents). You have to buy holders along with the scent pods.

Quebec has different laws regarding promotions. While they do tend to lose out on many good promos and contests as a result, they do also have much better consumer protections, too. Double-edged sword.

You are sharing a lot of stuff and that creates a problem.
A monitor can be great at many things, but usually have to sacrifice on others.
For gaming, you want something with 120hz display and ideally G-Sync compatible. But from what I can see, those won't be very good for graphic design where color accuracy can be critical in many cases. The best middle ground that you should look for are IPS Freesync based panels. But I believe most of them max out at 10bit color and that might be a problem for graphic works as I believe they work mostly with 13/14bits for at least near 99% Adobe RGB coverage.
My recommendation would be to either take the shortfalls of these options, or just buy budget models for each purpose.
Was at Walmart yesterday. Saw a Sodastream Genesis for $49.00. I already have a nice one, but second machine, plus CO2 cartridge and bottle. A CO2 cartridge is like $40.00, so why not? Long story short, I found out the bottle has to be screwed in. I really like the snap lock feature on mine. So, I returned it. Turns out every Tom’s Dick n Harry has the Fizzi model on sale for $69.97. The Fizzi has snap lock and looks sleek. Went to No Tax Day at Superstore, got points using the PC World Elite card. Got gas getting more points - shop plus fill thing. I love love my auto setting Soundstream, but sometimes, having manual control is better. Sparkling apple juice, for example. Plus, no need to plug it in like my automatic Sodastream.

Was at Walmart yesterday. Saw a Sodastream Genesis for $49.00. I already have a nice one, but second machine, plus CO2 cartridge and bottle. A CO2 cartridge is like $40.00, so why not? Long story short, I found out the bottle has to be screwed in. I really like the snap lock feature on mine. So, I returned it. Turns out every Tom’s Dick n Harry has the Fizzi model on sale for $69.97. The Fizzi has snap lock and looks sleek. Went to No Tax Day at Superstore, got points using the PC World Elite card. Got gas getting more points - shop plus fill thing. I love love my auto setting Soundstream, but sometimes, having manual control is better. Sparkling apple juice, for example. Plus, no need to plug it in like my automatic Sodastream.
looking at a soda stream, so the snap and lock is the way to go eh?
Yeah, looks like the screw in one is one sale at most retailers.
No, the Fizzi is a snap lock and not a twist on. $69.00 on sale at most places.
I had one leak on me, but that's because when you are low on CO2, there isn't enough pressure to make the seal. I have the plug in Fizzi One Touch. Same mechanism. Sodastream says CO2 bottle just needs to be screwed in. I think people see that and think the water container is a twist on. All models require you to screw the CO2 cartridge onto the machine. It is under a lot of pressure. Anyway..............
EDIT: Honestly, there's probably nothing wrong with the twist on method. At least it's a positive, no messing around seal. I just don't like having to twist the bottle. I'll probably strip the thread or something. Hee hee.

I haven't nerded out and done straight calculations but to me the PC points is by far the best over say Save On. Yes, each weeks targeted offers may not suit your needs but overall I tend to get a decent amount of points back. I think my craziest was spending $250 and got back like $70 in points. I had a coworker try to argue that Save On's was by far the best but I don't know. I shop there often too and maybe once a month I might get the back like a carton of milk for free.
No, Save-On points are the worst of the worst.
Optimum, hands down, is the best value as far as rewards points go. Very little effort involved. Combine the 20X points events at Shoppers Drug Mart with the "Spend Your Points" events, it's insane how much value you get back per dollar spent.
I used to go nuts over Save-On More Points (decades of collecting), until I did the math. Right now, I have maybe $350.00 worth of travel dollars. Don't ask how many decades that took me. In one year of Optimum points, I average $1000.00. That's straight $1000.00 worth of points. Use that with the spend your points events at Shoppers and it's incroyable.
Now that Shoppers has game consoles, games, electronics, etc. it's really worth it. Example, the 20X points event is like 30% off. Where else can you get a Nintendo Switch game or a Playstation Game for 30% off? It's in points, but when you purchase a game using those same points during the Spend Your Points events, you get even more value. The usual spend your points is, buy $300.00 worth of merchandise for $200.00 worth of points = $100.00 savings. I also earn a lot of points at No Frills and Superstore. Plus, I get points using my PC World Elite Mastercard.
Any of you guys apply for the PC Money card and account? I thought it was a good move, but it's such a freaking cumbersome and awkward system. I went back to using Simplii. I can't pay my AMEX card with the PC Money account. It says it's an American company. FFS, it's an American Express Canada issued card. I have no issues paying with the Simplii account. I can't pdf my transactions. Just some of the weird glitches with the way they do stuff. I call them and they give the excuse of it being a young company. Right. Don't fucking roll out something if you can't get the simplest things worked out. It seems the whole system was designed by high school drop outs /rant.

A heads up about this round of Circle K coupons. There is a limited amount to be redeemed before they are “All claimed”.
I’m at ironwood McDonald’s and their coffee is $1 for medium coffee, $1.25 for large, and $1.50 for X large. I guess they’re a franchise. Anyway, I had a craving for “World Famous,” fries. Got out the survey coupon - Buy a sandwich and get medium fries and fountain drink for free. Girl asks manager for help, as she’s never seen the voucher before. Manager asks what sandwich I want. Fillet O’ Fish, I tells him. He tells girl promo it. I didn’t get my fries or drink but got the Fillet O’ Fish for free. No argument here, lol. It tastes so much better when it’s free.
Charging car, while here. First hour free. Damn, free is so good. Slow charger, but what the hell? It’s not like I’m in any hurry to go anywhere, lol. I hear gas prices are up again.

Get the tube roll up thing from Oomomo. You slide the bottom of the tube into this thing that has a wind up mechanism. So convenient.
But aren't the prices for the items at Shoppers actually quite a bit higher than other stores? So they kind of make it back whilst giving out the better points rewards?
Well things like NintendoSwitch games and consoles are the same everywhere. You do need to know your prices of other things. When stuff goes on sale at Shoppers, they’re pretty good. I only spend my points on electronic games.
I was searching the Oomomo website for the tube squeezers. No luck. That website is so lame. Anyway, they're cheaper than the one I got from that store Hondaracer describes as, the place that sells overpriced junk to yuppies, gulolol.
So, this is what I'm using to squeeze the shit out of my tubes............

I was searching the Oomomo website for the tube squeezers. No luck. That website is so lame. Anyway, they're cheaper than the one I got from that store Hondaracer describes as, the place that sells overpriced junk to yuppies, gulolol.
So, this is what I'm using to squeeze the shit out of my tubes............

They send you a notice after one month. You can continue with the subscription or end it. They made it sound like it could be a longer trial period. One coffee per visit however many times or locations you want to go.

Signed up this morning. My local A&Ws don’t open until 9am according to the app (which is entirely false) so I can’t get a coffee on the way to work, and no decaf for the commute home. First world problems! :okay:
According to the rules, decaf is not part of the promo, which is too bad, as I like decaf..........

That's an interesting plan. Might work for some. A&W Coffee is still really bottom barrel stuff IMO, and I'm absolutely no coffee snob. My favourite go to Coffee is McDonalds Coffee if that's anything to go by. Between $1 for McD's right now and A&W, I'd probably still still pay the buck.

Yeah, it has been discussed over and over and over again. Probably in the Invisible Soul's Freebies thread.
You're right, though.............. $1.00 vs free shit water, $1.00 coffee wins all the time.
Who the fuck am I trying to kid? LOL. Can't wait for free, shit coffee. :lawl:
All kidding aside. The last batch of their coffee was pretty decent.
Besides, beggars can't be choosers
For those who took advantage of the McDonald's, "Buy a gift card and get a Big Mac free voucher," just a friendly reminder that the vouchers expire at the end of this month. Good thing about this year's voucher is it also gives you a second choice of free half dozen doughnuts. I quite like the doughnuts. They're not that bad. The doughnuts come from the suppliers frozen. I make it a point to ask for them frozen. I keep them in the freezer until I have a craving for their Boston Cream or Apple Fritter. Lasts at least a couple of months in the freezer. I don't like the pink, Homer Simpson doughnuts, but their Maple Caramel is pretty good. They're not full size doughnuts, but whatever............. it is what it is.

If I do, it’s with free medium fries and medium drink. Just fill out their survey on line. The URL is on the back of any receipt. I do the survey and then PDF the voucher. It’s good for a two week cycle. Actually, you can have a salad instead of the fries.
BTW, the offer is no good if the receipt was more than two weeks old. No biggie, just change the date.

$3.77 for the large. Ends 06.09.
Sunrise Tofu is cheap there, too. $1.97 for the medium firm. Production/distribution issues at Sunrise, so tofu was all sold out at Wholesale Club. In any case, Superstore should be able to price match. Just go to Warehouse Club's website and show to Superstore cashier.

Large pieces and different enough that it's noteworthy. Bottom line, I get it because of the Groupon. Sides are alright.
One chicken place to avoid is the Korean chicken place on Broadway. Donkey Kong or something along those lines. Maybe because they opened up not that long ago, but I haven't felt "ripped off" at a restaurant in a long time.
Also, anyone been to Carp Sushi and Bowl across from Kingsgate Mall? Highly rated, so I went. Not impressed. I didn't get their poke bowl. Maybe that's why?

Oh wow, I didn't know Groupon was still a thing! The 10 piece for 23 is not bad. They have deals from time to time on Ubereats for b1g1 as well.
I just realized I still have the App on my phone, haven't opened it in over a year! I stopped using it when it was always the same stores and the ones I actually bought was not good even with lower expectations.

You can claim up to 3 cans at 4 or more you will need receipts.
I use this product and I like it so I hope they sort it out. I submitted for 3 cans I have to hunt for the 3rd receipt just in case lol
Just went to the new entertainment section at Brentwood Mall. Arcades, bar, and eating joint, called the Rec Room (they're in select malls across the country). I purchased a $50.00 package. 365 credits (tokens) or something like that. Worth it, but for a limited time, they have this offer which makes it even better. With the $50.00 deal, you get a free VIP movie ticket. The credits and movie tickets don't expire, but the offer is for a limited time.

I tried the VR driving thing. Epic fail......... I will go back and master it.
They have a time slot where kids are not allowed. From 10:00 pm till Midnight. Okay, it's a little like what someone said about Richmond Night Market...... 20 year olds with hot girlfriends..........that means 97.96% of RS should not be going, Gulolol.
EDIT: Forgot to mention. Don't purchase the $50.00 package at the vending machines. You need to line up and pay at the main booth area. Also, if you have a Scene Card, use it to earn points.
As for the theatre itself, it looked very nice. Didn't actually go in, but the lounge before heading into the theatres was nice with a pretty good view. I intend to go back at night to check out the view. Fountains below and the city lights. Someone needs to clean the top of the SkyTrain station. Filthy, it is.

Ohh I went to checkout Brentwood, there's nothing there, but it's nice, didn't go in the rec room cuz there was a ginormous lineup waiting to get in, assumed it was like the playdium but less games, guess that's what it is

Right now, they have promo going on where games are half price until September? It’s in the link I posted. I’m kind of glad these places have evolved past those pesky rolls and rolls of tickets. I got me one of them bracelets with the RFID? built in. Everything is done through that. Not sure if they have cards or not, but I love the idea of holding your wrist up to the reader pad that’s on all the games.

Yeah, I got there at 4:00 pm. That’s when they open. The line moves quickly. The line up is to check your age. They didn’t check me at all. I wAnder why? Gulolol. Children can go in, but only with a parent. The kids who were there seemed to really enjoy the place. The sports bar is my favourite section.

As is the case with any new shiny thing in the city these days, crazy lines for the first little bit. I'll check it out when the hype dies down. Do you think my 4 year old would enjoy the place or it's more for teens?
There bubble tea store (Machi) across the street from my work had crazy 2 hour lines for the first month or so. It's empty now.

Didn't go inside, I had assumed it was adults only, cuz alcohol, but I guess not based off the ppl in line with kids, and mg1s review, kids love anything tho :lol
Ohh right machi machi! Been meaning to check that place out, thx for the reminder :D

Yes, lots of kids running around having loads of fun. Not sure how tall your 4 year old is, but you can play with them. I was playing Mario Cart against this guy with his kid on his lap. I annihilated them, but they were there just to have fun. I had lots of fun at this game that required you to build a 50 story apartment tower. Each level slides in and you're supposed to time it just right, by hitting the button to let it fall into place. If you miss it, the section that is hanging off just falls. The following pieces are then the size of what is left from the previous move. You receive tickets the higher you go. The tickets are automatically accumulated onto your account. I went into the prize room and it had the usual stuff you get at other arcades. An Xbox, hmmmm........ I wasn't paying attention to what the little kids were doing. Just tried not to step on them. The atmosphere of the place, I think, is great for kids. As for alcohol, it's served at the sports bar. There was a section where they had table tennis (not ping pong, 'cause that's so wrong a term) and a pool table? I couldn't quite see, as it was in a separate room? I'm going back there today to really see all of it. The Jays are playing this afternoon, so I might go watch it at the bar. My eldest son has a day off, so I'll spend some quality time with him. Maybe even take in a movie at the Cineplex VIP Cinemas.
Oh, some of the older kids (anything younger than the age of 40 is a kid in my books) were a little distracting :ifyouknow: 10:00 pm to Midnight, no children hours must be quite the party atmosphere. Too much excitement for me, I'm afraid. I hear Matlock reruns are on again, gulolol.

I am still winning free frosters, candy, energy drinks etc on Circle K rock paper scissors game. Often they are bogo wins so I ignore those.
DQ coupon highlights - $1 medium fries, $1 ice cream cone (x2)
My favourite coupon received in the mail is Wendys Dave's single burger $3.00. It has to used at the drive through or counter (no mobile). I like to add a Jr Bacon Cheeseburger and a $1 frosty. Total $6.59
I am definitely gonna get fat.
I'm saving up my pennies so I can go see the Samoan again and enjoy some real food............. WTF? What did I just say? When did I get like this? It's like when I stopped going to Sushi Garden. Nothing wrong with the food, but in my old age, I'm starting to appreciate quality over quantity and price. When I was starting off with a family and with a huge mortgage, I would never have stepped into anyplace that.............. you get the idea. Still not a snob. Feet still firmly grounded. Will not, and cannot, forget the empty larder days.

With the $50.00 deal, you get a free VIP movie ticket. The credits and movie tickets don't expire, but the offer is for a limited time.
I went on the Tuesday that week (VIP movies only $15) and the worker told me that $50 movie deal was sold out the day before. was gonna get it so I could watch another movie and get the free hour gameplay lol
theres a sweet deal till the end of the month where you can get a free hour of gaming with proof of your movie ticket on the same day (not sure if weekends count) by showing ur ticket stub/proof at the movie ticket booth at the front.
also regular games at rec room are half off mon-thurs till end of September
You were lied to, my friend. I went today and got the $50.00 deal again. For my daughter, this time. My youngest son got one, too. I went to see what the theatres looked like. I'm not a moviegoer, but man, such comfortable seats. Went out onto the balcony. They had live entertainment on the stage below (next to the fountain). Anyway...............
Also, underground parking is pay parking, but if you go to The Rec Room, you get free two hour parking. There's a sign at the entranceway that has a QR Code. If you plan on going to the VIP Cinema, there's a free parking offer, as well. Not sure how long, but I'm sure it's for the duration of the movie and then some. I park at the lot outside London Drugs. Free EV charging station, FTMFW!

we'll need someone to post/report back when the lines disappear so the rest of us can go check it out after :lol
Honestly, the lines are quick. Five to ten minutes too much these days? Try lining up for courses at UBC (back in the dark ages). Then, the line up for text books. I imagine it's a lot more civil these days...............

last Tuesday was packed as fuck. this Tuesday wasent so bad.. about half the crowd. prob would be the busiest weekday.
line does move pretty quick.
I figured weekends it will be bumping + might be better to go at 10pm when its adults only.
but def take advantage of the half off regular games Mon-Thurs before end of Sept.
certain items at the restaurant will give you tokens for your wristband. dont forget you can get scene points as well
