Straight from RFD [Amazon.ca] $10 Account Credit When You Buy $50 in Gift Cards - RedFlagDeals.com Forums

Quote:

HOPEFULLY this didn't ONLY apply to me and it's not too YMMV.

I order many things from Amazon, this deal just came up while I was on there. I bought a $50 e-gift card and applied the promo code and it says I qualify for $10 account credit. Thanks Amazon!
(I actually sent the e-gift card to myself and already applied it to my account, I'm like scrooge). I read the fine print where it said the promotion is valid until March 31st 2016. It's only 1 promotion per account as well.

Add minimum of $50 in gift cards to your cart.
Go to checkout page
Add promo code: "0316GIFTCA" and apply to order
SHOULD say you have qualified
Checkout

www.amazon.ca

For those wanting to check out the Vancouver International Auto Show, there's a 2 for 1 coupon for Sunday March 27th

REDFM Vancouver | The Vancouver International Auto Show

I was just at the Market at Birch Bay today and they had organic free-run eggs marked down to 99ct/dozen.

There was still a good 15~20dozens when I left today around noon.

Expiry date is today, but I don't think I ever had problem with eggs when I pick up the 30egg tray from Costco and sometimes leave it a week or two past expiration.

i've honestly left that 30 egg tray for more than months sometimes and its still fine

best by dates are for schmucks

Best before and Expiration dates are two different things.
Best before dates on food will be fresh until this date; however, it doesn't necessary go bad after this date.
Expiration date on food will go bad after this date.

Foods nowadays will just have a best before date.

I bought Milk from T&T once, product expired 3 days before the best before date.. Smelt super sour. Resolved problem by never buying milk from T&T again..

Me, being the cheap ass that I am decided screw it I'll chug as much milk as I can and throw out the rest, I even smelt it and didn't even have a smell. Bam nausea begins, hives develope and then the puking begins. I now have a new respect to best before dates for dairy. Never again.

Plus T&T stores their milk in that open fridge style setup so unlike pretty much every other Super Market. Shit just ain't cold enough imo.

Speaking of eggs, No Frills has dozen large eggs for $1.97. Sale is on all week.
