I'm disappointed with flyer retractions! I went to a store for a specific deal only to find out when I get there they have a sign up noting they made a mistake. Their loss I left empty handed and went to my regular store.

FLEAS!! Somehow we got FREAKING FLEAS!! I don't take my dogs to public places and let them mingle with other dogs so I know we didn't them from that. So I had to pay $200.00 for meds for 4 dogs and 2 cats. Plus it turns out my Pomeranian is allergic to the bites rather than just being annoyed by the bites like the other dogs. I had to shave off her long beautiful coat which broke my heart. I only hope her coat will grow back

the bright side...(well not all that bright) atleast it's summer and your Pomeranian won't need to wear a jacket to keep warm?

Someone is stealing all of the flyers from my building.
This has been ongoing for a few months now and here i've been thinking that mississauga news isnt delivering them and i've written a few complaints as well.
So thursday night I get home from my concert around 1am and see our stack of flyers (they are supposed to deliver them thursday night- late night)
so I grab mine and the coupon insert so I was happy about that.
Friday morning rolls around and I head out for work around 9am and guess what, the whole stack is gone.
I live in a building with 12 units, with probably at least 5 people who dont work, so there is NO WAY that everyone took their paper by 9am on friday morning.
I only wish we had a camera so I could see who's stealing our papers

grr got my wedding band re-sized (wildly overdue was near impossible to get off it was soo snug) went with the size suggested by the woman picked it up yesterday.. it's too big, i found myself constantly clutching my hand in fear it will fall off(any soap on my hands or a bit of baby powder and it nearly falls off) now i gotta call them and hope they will fix it for free (i'm not paying yet again) and hope they re-adjust the ring size on the one we got on order too

i took my ring to the jeweler & he put this band inside it, it fits fine now, think it was about $6- (10 yrs ago)

I requested my snapsaves cheque and by mistake click on the donation tab. So mad, I have been waiting a long time to cash it. I wrote an email will wait for a response.

The amount of stores I've been to this week that have been out of sugar, Shoppers, No Frills, Zerhs, Superstore, Walmart, Food Basics and Target. Should not be this hard to find something that's a pantry staple, plus they don't all sell the same brand so it's not a supplier shortage.

We went through this a while back. It seems that my crazy neighbour thought it made out building look cheap to have flyers in the lobby, so he would dump them all into recycling. Enough people made comments that he realized if he didn`t want to get lynched, he would have to leave things be. For now.

What I find crazy are the number of people who toss coupons without bothering to look at them (I`ve been known to take the dog out for a very late walk and rummage through the blue bin when the McD coupon booklets come out.

Oh, poor baby.

My friend is currently not on speaking terms with her bf. His cat has fleas and he thinks if he leaves things as is, they`ll eventually go away. Wouldn`t be so bad, if the same thing hadn`t happened last year when he brought fleas to her home. She`s told him he can`t come for a visit unless there are no more signs of fleas anywhere in his place. He must be lonely, cause he actually took the cat in to the vet, instead of using the flea collars in the grocery stores (he doesn`t seem to realize you need to do this *before* a critter gets fleas).

ALL coolers were broken in Walmart. Had been looking forward to buying Okios key lime yogurt for days! So sad!

Then went through checkout with my TWO coupons (1 manufacturer and 1 competitors) and 9 items and it took me probably 20 minutes to checkout. Cashier couldn't figure out how to use competitor's coupon as Ad-Match, asked other cashier TWICE and then entered the coupon value as the Ad-Match price instead of subtracting it from the Walmart price. Realize this mistake while checking receipt before leaving and head to customer service. Explain to customer service cashier what happened. She goes to find CSM. CSM goes to original till to get coupon and cashier refunds me the $2.50. Rather than waiting for CSM, she goes ahead and rings it in, then enters Shopper's coupon as vendor's coupon. I was pretty sure that was wrong, but didn't want to say anything. As I'm leaving, CSM comes back and then as I'm heading out the door, I heard her getting after the customer service cashier for entering it as a vendor's coupon. Yikes.

Spent $40 plus gas getting getting take-out from a place we have never tried before. While not horrible, it wasn't any good either. Hate wasting time and money on finding out a we don't like a restaurant.

So today at Target, I was pricematching dove deodorant from shoppers. The cashier was having a hard time putting it through as $2 so she called the manager. The manager didnt even bother looking at the flyer and said to me, we cannot price match this because its a 2 day sale. The dove deodorant is on sale all week at shoppers and even states it on the front page. But yet she continued to argue with me, I kept pointing the date out to her and in the end she was like ok fine just give it to her. As if she did a huge favour for me.

Oy! Check with your city for bylaws.
Here, it's a 48 hour park - they will come out to chalk the tires, then ticket/tow.

Hi Natalka, yes, our city also has a 48 hour park limit...but my spouse won't let me call bylaw because the neighbours will probably figure out it was us and then our relationship with them deteriorate to worse than it already is. (but I *really* do want to call and report them!)

[Natalka]

Gee, lorken - well, then I'd put it in your spouse's lap to go over and talk with them!

[lorken]

Gee, lorken - well, then I'd put it in your spouse's lap to go over and talk with them!

Hah, yeah....am working on that!
