Play equipment:
Genevieve Y.: Have fun putting this together! I imagine it would take days. We bought a much more simple one from Canadian Tire last month, it took a long time to put together (two swings and a trapeze and a slide). When we finally finished , both swings we noticed the swings chains were uneven! How do you return something that big after you put it together?
Play equipment:
Novus L.: By the way, I'd put money on the fact that product won't last 3 years consecutive in any Canadian back yard.... Furthermore, I'd double down on the fact that kids will get hurt on this, it's probably cheap wood, probably recycled plastic, so the wood will deteriorate faster, the plastic will crack and/or break altogether, and result in a variety of injuries.. Smart!
Crappy Tire is trying to entice people with car trouble, to give their Crappy Garages a shot at the repairs.

Thinking of signing up for their Gas Savigns Promotion?
Allain P.: Everytime they have these promotions, they have sales people on site ready to attemp to bully you into signing up for their gas rewards mastercard. And they are terribly persistent and pushy. The 5 cents off has NOTHING to do with giving back to the community like they would try to have us believe. It's always about making more $$$$$....
Jason L.: your last promo really sucked, you give me a 10C off card, good for 100 litres, so i go to fill up, it was around 60 litres, well suprise suprise, they take the card and dont allow you the other 40 litres later.
Another attempt to update their techology = another fumble:
Rob B.: That's pretty sad after you CEO purchased all those Q10's and bragged how great the phone is, but won't run his own companies app.

In the meantime, there is a Crappy Promotion going on, to save on gasoline:
Ann M.: last time you had this promo the store didnt know what to do with it so they wouldn't accept it. really annoying after I had already filled up there
Michelle D.: last time you had this offer the link you's sent me wouldn't open so I was unable to print a coupon,,, really hope it works this time and I don't miss out again. I've been putting your gas in my vehicles for over 6 yrs now, only your gas, cause I love to collect the Canadian Tire Money on the Card. Would be nice to be credited a great discount with this coupon, fingers crossed it opens/prints this time
More opinions on how Canadian Tire sucks at ... Rain Checks:
JillandDoug R.: Agree with everyone stating the rain check issues... Same thing happened here. Went early May got a rain check for end of May then had to inquire ourselves only to find out it wasn't available until August. We bought elsewhere... Normally don't complain much but an ad popping up in my newsfeed promoting this is frustrating to say the least
Crappy decided to promote a swing set (with horrible Photo-Shopping), and people offered some very direct opinions:
Crystal H.: Sorry Canadian Tire, but you may have chose the wrong picture to post here. We have a raincheck from 2 months ago for this Brightside Swing Set which was on sale in the flyer weekly back in May. When we got the call to pick ours up at the Dieppe, NB store, we couldn't make it in to pick it up until the weekend and low and behold they sold it to another customer! Absolutely terrible. My poor 2 year old was patiently waiting for her swing set and now they tell us not available until mid-July with no guarantees. I mean why even bother putting it in the flyer?! Talk about false advertising. Very disappointing to say the least.
Justin W.: Congratulations, I'm glad you get good service from them. But read the dozens of independent studies and tests that have found time and again that Canadian tire is the worst place in Canada to take your car for repairs.
More on the "Little (Photo)Shop Of Horrors" play center:
Pierre R.: It was on special in may we got a rain check ... Did not hear nothing so last week we called to find out that it will be here mid august lol ... And canadian tire still advertise it on special i find it the most stupid thing i have ever seen but whatever we will go T walmart and buy one there thanks ! Or maybe we could get it for next winter lmfao i guess they only sell tires !!
Sarah G.: Same thing happen to us Pierre. Sears online was great, we had it within a couple of weeks!!
Lesson learned, good luck!!
Laurie B.: in my experience.....usually, no rainchecks......
San D.: This play structure is EXTREMELY unsturdy. The swings and ladder were broken off the first summer we had it. Regret buying this whole heartedly. Not to mention it is not the safest. I would recommend all parents to STAY AWAY from this product.
Naja B.: We tried picking one up for our grandkids. Not one store sroind edmonton had one!
Colin F.: I will put my to cents in here
3 people 2 full days to put something together and 600$plus and it was falling apart in less then a week
One 4 year old playing on it
I can not believe the lack of structure and support that this has
Not only am I going to call customer service at Canadian tire I am going to call the BBB and the CSA as I do not think a qualified inspector looked at this well enough to say its ok to sell and be used
Ours sits the the back yard and I will not let my child play on it because the boards are all cracked
The swing support arms will not stay together
Among many other things
Anyway only thing I can give to anyone for advice on this product is stay far far away as you more your child will have fun with it
And it's a pile of money and a complete danger
Tracy T.: $600?same one@WalMart for $449.!
Yulia L.: liberté Got one and it is very flimsy. I sat on it and we thought that the whole thing will fall apart.. and I am not big person, within the weight limits of this structure. I don't see it would last couple of years. I wish I would have paid more and get Costco one instead
JillandDoug R.: I agree that people at store level make mistakes with rain checks and such, that is A-ok, it happens. It's more an issue of advertising something on sale and going in basically the day it starts and 0 are in stock with none available until 3 months later. Normally they have great customer service... Seems more of a planning/stock issue .... Yet they are still advertising this when many people were/are waiting and waiting. Little misleading...
Ginette T.: Why do they advertise something that is not available!
