They still have boxes but you have to look before you pay b/c some boxes do not have stickers and others have only $1 off sticker

As of yesterday if you spend $30 or more on Hershey’s Halloween candy you earn 15,000 optimum points

Not to be outdone, A&W is offering free coffee every day from now until November 30th. Using their app.........

It doesn't mention what size.

Did not know A&W Food Services of Canada's was in North Vancouver, until now (need to read fine print more often, lol).

I got their regular size which is equivalent to a medium.
So much tastier than the 7-11 coffee.
But who can argue when it is free right?

Speaking of free Big Mac, I got an email that if you sign up with door dash and order McDonalds with a minimum $1 purchase you get a free Big Mac. Zero delivery fee also.

I hope Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales are better than last year. Actually, labour Day and Boxing Day sales have been lame for a loooong time. A&B Sound........... why???????? Sign O’ the Times, I guess. Amazon Prime Day was a blip on no one’s radar, too gulolol.

I am guessing that Black Friday / Crber Monday would actually probably be worse than last year. Probably a longer duration to make the sale seem better but savings would probably be mediocre...

Anyone know what happened to the birthday thread. I got this $10 birthday voucher good for anything at MEC. Like a good frugal person, I went and purchased two items that cost, in total, $9.95. I had to pay tax, lol, but free is free......... except the taxes.

Birthdays............ one year closer to your death. At 16, couldn’t wait to get the drivers license. That was one I really looked forward to.

You don't have to pay for the delivery charge. It adds up to quite a bit.

I like to save money too, but when you order through the Uber Eats app, the restaurant has to pay them. In this current environment, restaurants can’t afford any additional expenses, so keep that in mind.

That is a valid point. However with these promos Uber is bearing a majority of the cost.
Another thing is these are places I wouldn't have eaten at otherwise, so while true they only get 70%(?) Of their normal revenue the alternative is they never would have seen a penny from some of these new customers without delivery apps and promos like these. Chalk it up as advertising cost, marketing cost, free sample cost. I believe its a symbiotic relationship and helps both parties ( for the most part, there's always exceptions )

Agreed, there are pros and cons for a restaurant to use Uber Eats.

It's usually more expensive to order through third party apps than the resturant directly so some of the added cost are passed on to the customer anyways
