I don't want to meet at the same place lol because the tables are small.. I think timmies is better because we can move the tables/chairs.

I think Timmies is a very bad idea seeing as your supposed to buy something in order to take up seats, they are very strict about this in my town atleast. Also, timmies locations are usually very small and very busy. I think a library would be a much better idea. Larger tables, more room to spread out.
Can I also suggest making a list in the first post of who is coming and then a different heading for who might be coming?
our first meeting was at a timmies and it was great I think. we used 3 tables I think. some people bought a drink from there so we at least bought something lol and they didn't say anything to us :) It can be in a library too doesn't matter for me.
I need help with the location. CAD and Abby where are you guys lol :)

I'd just like everyone to remember that there probably won't be that perfect place for everyone to get to. I'm travelling from Aurora so its quite far as it is. Add to that that I have PM'd a bunch of locals who are also from Bradford and area who are even farther then me.
the last location was at highway 7 and centre. If we find a library close to this location I can come, but if it is in markham I can't drive that far :(
Well since I don't drive and don't live near there I have no idea of the surrounding ammenities so someone else will have to offer up a suggestion :)
The closer north it is the better as I know there are quite a few even further then me.
how is Thornhill Community Centre? There's a library there or inside the Square right beside it, there's a lot of empty tables.

Oh jeez I was just there, parking lot is a DISASTER. Goodness knows where anything is it just looked like one massive building to me. I remember 10 years ago when it was just a little mall thingie with the library connected to it (I was young this is how I remember it) with a GIGANTIC parking lot. Now they've mashed it all up and shoved tiny little stores in what used to be a parking lot and everyone was driving like idiots. Oi.
I'd still be willing to meet here lol.
Sorry guys that date sucks for me...it is my ds's school BBQ which I volunteer at! Can we make it another date?? There is Angus Glen library? Major Mac and warden ave area??
too far for me as well

I'd be happy to meet at the same place, or somewhere near there.
There is a library at Bathurst and Clark. I think there are some tables just at the entrance to the library where we don't have to be too quite. We might be too loud for the study area, unless it's possible to reserve a room.
The Promenade Mall in the food court could work (and there is an M&M meat shop just out side the mall in case anyone has coupons they need to redeem.)
Another option I'd like is the seating area in the Real Canadian Superstore on the 2nd floor. It's not crowded, no need to whisper, there are lots of tables and they are movable.
We can definently change the date Abby, please let us know what date is good for you.
Superstore is good to me. it is the one on Dufferin and Steeles right?
June 4.5 6 are all good:). I missed the last one and really want to come!!! I have tons of coupons I can't use!!!
Superstore second floor is definitely a good idea.
Am hoping someone in my area is wanting to come so I can carpool with them. I'm horrible, begging for rides and such :yikes:
Yes, there is a Superstore at the SW corner of Dufferin ad Steeles Ave W.
June 5th and 6th are also ok for me to meet.
What time is the meeting usually? I should be able to come and this will be my first coupon meet/meeting other SC'ers! :eek: :eek:
the p&g and smartsource coupons are coming up this weekend right? if yes then we can have the meeting on JUNE 06 WEDNESDAY AT SUPERSTORE ON DUFFERIN AND STEELES
Sounds perfect to me!!Quote:

Abby I think it was you that was interested in gluten free coupons? If so I have some for you! I wrote away to one of the companies and they sent me a bunch. I don't need them, but I thought of you! They have really good expiry dates too (March 2013).
Omg!!! That is soooo super nice of you:). No one has ever done that for me!!! So sweet:)Quote:

Thanks for thinking of me Ceren! LOL bringing the kids with me would be a disaster though. Their bedtime is 7:30/8 and they need to be up at 6 the next morning, so I don't want to mess with it. They are are also at the ages where they are into everything, so I wouldn't be able to concentrate on coupons at all. If hubby is ok with taking on bedtime duties solo I will try and leave at 6:30 and meet with everyone at 7. Can someone give me the exact address of the RCSS to plug into the GPS? What city is that considered? Thornhill?
here is the location:
