<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kvasir, post: 92878, member: 4139&quot;]I do have a box full of Canadian Tire money and similar coupons from another gas station franchise. Never managed to spend them because I&#039;d never put them in my wallet, instead just dump it in a box with the receipts. Maybe I should think about picking them out for a collection and start spending the rest. They are worth face value at Canadian Tire stores and associated gas stations. Some eBay sellers will take canadian tire money as payment even. </p><p><br /></p><p>They come in denominations in cents. Given out with your receipt after you&#039;ve made your purchase. How much you receive depends on how much you&#039;ve spent. Sorta like a cashback really. Frankly i&#039;ve never cared how much I&#039;d receive. Canadian Tire is a Canadian hardware store btw, selling anything from auto accessories, to kitchenwares, to sport equipment, to garden stuff. The Canadian Tire money is certainly a quintessential Canadiana.</p><p><br /></p><p>I never actually investigate what denominations they come in. Many ppl just save them up till they get a wad of bills worthing tens of dollars and spend it altogether at once. Some just drop it off as donation right after receiving them. </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Tire_money" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Tire_money" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Tire_money</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Calgary is getting cold at this time of year. Nothing unusual or unheard of so far. -20c to -30c with the windchill last week and early this week. </p><p><br /></p><p>Boy, it&#039;s been almost a year since I last went to NZ. Must be getting warmer into summer now.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
