I'm not sure how screaming obscenities is analogous not posting "in the correct forum", maybe you can help me out with that one. But in that case, if I posted obscenities in portuguese or farsi, would it be double bad? You know, not in the correct language but also obscence? Whew! Then, what...

I think it would be better to use "wicked-awesome", Jack. Or maybe "totally-wicked-cool", since they are harder to define once hyphenated. That way you can avoid people dwelling on semantics. By the way, I found another I thing I like about Canadian Tire this weekend - exchangeable propane...

I feel it is my duty to explain to the users of this site that (a) Canadian Tire ain't so bad and (b) I have a problem with whining for the sake of whining. I am simply suggesting a better way to get your point across aside from an obscure website. I have a life, I just find responding to...

I can remember my Dad calling himself the "bungee cord king" when he'd load up the roof of the car with all kinds of camping gear and bungee it all down and then bungee a tarp over it. I definitely like the bungee cord selection.

Lot's of people try to rationalise limitations on free speech, otherwise how would it be allowed to happen? The fact is, applying rules that limit the very freedom of speech you say you are a champion of makes you a big-time hypocrite. Your comments like "This protects everyone" and "this makes...

It looks like he/she WAS here, but probably won't be back.

Thanks for sharing Iknowthings. It would be good if Admin could weigh in on the reasons for removing CTC's corporate logo from this site.

I'm not saying people shouldn't vent. I'm simply pointing out that doing so, while I'm sure greatly therapeuric for the "ventor", can and will seem small and petty to the "ventee". But your point is taken. If I don't like it, I can go elsewhere. But then this is clearly an opinion site, and I'm...

It's likely that they struggle with the balance between inconveniencing their honest customers and discouraging their dishonest customers. Shoplifting, I've heard (but have no personal experience with it) is quite an issue in retail because it is so expensive to have people take advantage of the...

I never said anything was wrong with whining and complaining, only that it is small and petty. When you say they should fire mechanics that are proven to be doing damage to people's vehicles, I completely agree. If something has happened that is truly crooked, you should be consulting with a...

My whole point is, if, as you put it you have experienced "in Canadian Tire, very rude customer service people, time and time again" then it is you who is the one who keeps going back for more. Maybe you should stop going then you wouldn't have to complain and no one would need to hear you...

Actually I was curious. I was on here yesterday and since then there has been a change that no longer includes the CTC logo. If it is truly ass-covering, why start now and not at the site's inception? Has there been something to prompt the change? You seem to be contradicting yourself in...

If you wanted to get serious, I'd suggest getting a real lawyer to help you. Otherwise it is just another rambling complaint. In civil courts, this would be settled under "Tort Law". You should check your claim against these conditions and see how it feels to you: Usually, people claim...

Yeah, I'd be interested to "know things" about this functionality too.

Good for your for you for following through on your principles. Personally, I tend to be a little more indifferent to customer service if I feel I'm getting a good deal. Mind you, finding the deal and getting good customer service is always a great thing. There are also customers who can never...
