    Fredericton, Oromocto, Fredericton North canadian tires

    Gist is, of these three canadian tires the Fredericton North side is the worst. Crappy tire south is the best only for retail purchases and Oromocto likes to rip people off. As for service beware. Return policies aside they seem to make it difficult for you, ie. If an item is marked as...

    Jobmate

    I'm surprised that no one has posted in here yet. Jobmate is a Canadian Tire specific brand. AND, it SUCKS!! Very poor quality items for the most part. Extremely cheap in every way!

    Canadian Tire blames God for crappy chinese material

    I bought table umbrella. The wind broke it off at the table top, bent/broke tin right in two. It was first time I used it. The manager agreed the material was crap, but refused return because it was an act of "God" and there was nothing they could do about the crappy material!!!! :realmad:

I went back to CT and the clerk told me that they had a lot of complaints about this pressure washer and that Simoniz would send me a new...

    Sign the Petition Against Canadian Tire

    And get everyone you know to sign it too. The more negative attention we bring to Canadian tire the more likely they will be to change their business practices or suffer the financial consequences of too many customers associating Canadian Tire with the unethical practices they employ. Get the...

    Auto Center - Ill never go to any Canadian tire again

    They lied to me saying maintenance was regular required maintenance. I talked to 5 people including the store manager, the auto center manager, a CSR, a higher CSR, the CSR manager, and finally the store manager. The store manager in the end implied I may be just lying (even though everyone...

    Lotsa Stuff!

    I find their washer fluid especially excellent. Their Formula 1 synthetic oil? To die for! I also find their selection of sump pumps second to none. Oh, and let's not forget fertilizer and bagged topsoil. Hmmm... I also like their barbeque tools - way cool. I think that's it for now, but I'm...
