Free Stuff at Canadian Tire
You know those scratchcards that you should have gotten with your flyers the past three weeks?
You can tell whether if it's a winner before taking it to the store.
You just need a very dark room, and then shine a bright light to the back through the black part, and you should be able to see enough wording to determine if it's a winner or a loser.
Even a single LED keychain flashlight can work, but it's a lot easier with my 9-LED flashlight.
Do
The losing cards start with:

The first line is in lighter print, so it's harder to see. Much easier to look at the second line instead.
Have fun.

Actually, there's no French... the bottom half has some instructions for the cashiers and stuff... but yeah, looking at the top half is enough.

Desk lamp isn't good enough. Ideally you need a light that's concentrated to only shine at the back black part, and a dark room.
LED keychain light can work, but only if you know what to look for... sometimes it's not easy though.

Technically, yes... but you could try to go to a store that has the self checkouts and pretend to scratch it there before showing the attendant. They're not overly strict about it...

Actually, yeah... I forgot to mention that, and it's pretty important. Doing it in a dark room helps big time...

you get either $5 off your purchase, or 1 or 3 chance of 10,000.
so really you might get $5. and you aren't going to get the 10,000...
not worth the effort of finding more flyers to check.

Yeah, it's just $5 off $5 purchase coupons... so basically you can get some small items for free.
This is good for those that live in apartments.

They're not exactly randomly distributed... as in, you can go through 20 cards in a row and not get a single winner, but then you get 10 winners in the next 20 cards... trust me, I know.
