That's the beauty of it. It's like returning the old one at the full price - get the full price back. 30 days or not. It's all in their system.

Bottom line, it worked out. Who am I to argue? I just saved 50 USD, plus difference in taxes.


It works for other things at Costco. You get difference back on sale items, within 30 days. If it's more than 30 days, just purchase new priced item. Return it and get the difference that way. I wouldn't do it for 5 bucks, but 50?

When I heard them say it, I was skeptical, but what the hell? What can you lose?


EDIT: Just checked my Home Trust Visa and $429.08 CAD was credited and $360.56 CAD was put back on. Took a couple of days to show up on statement.

KMS Tools one day only sale. First 100 customers get a Milwaukee $20 coupon good for today only. They have an 18 volt 5.0 Ah battery for 119.00. That’s not that great of a deal, but when you get a second one for free, then it’s an awesome deal. I wAnder if Home Depot will price match and beat that offer, gulolol. They have two m18 batteries on sale for $159.00.

Ad is a little misleading but if you watch the video on the link it's buy one at regular price get one for $1 but still good deal.

^ Where did you see that?

I actually didn't even catch that

Some new Bubble tea open at Richmond earlier this week. They were offering free drinks on the opening day. Wait was 2 hours..... not sure if it is worth it.

#Vancouver - people don't seem to have to work and have the time to wait hours for deals such as BOGO or take part of first 50/first 100 get X deal

If I offered to pay you $5 to stand on the sidewalk for two hours doing nothing, would you do it? You'd say no right? And as a grown man, you might even be a little offended?

A note on the White Spot $10 bonus. It is for January only, no online orders and says one certificate per party of two.

Princess Auto is having their $15 off $75 of purchases coupon. It’s been on for awhile it seems, but I don’t go there that often. Went yesterday and got the coupon. Just buy something and they give you the coupon. The coupon is good from December 31st to January 27th. They have this promo twice a year. I imagine they’re about to end the promo soon.

Oh yeah, picked up a ten pack of strap protectors for a buck! They’re regular $8.99. They’re used to protect the corners/edges of cargo when you strap shit down. I’m going to put them on the corners of my planter boxes to keep my hoses from being damaged. They’re made of orange plastic, but I don’t care, lol.

Don't understand the relegation thing ... why do those 2 teams Kazakstan and Denmark play each other 3 times ??!!

Why do losers of the playoffs not have a relegation. I mean it sucks to be Sweden, I suspect more people would be open to watching them than K vs. D for the 3rd time.
