The Eddie Bauer Reward Program

I’ll keep it brief. You sign up for a card. You get two points for every dollar. Takes 1000 points to get $10 off. $10/$500 is 2% off. They force you to accept a coupon for this redemption as soon as you hit 1000 points. They print this on thermal paper and give it to you to loose. It also expires 3 months after it’s issued. So, if you shop very frequently at Eddi Bauer, this card is for you. Otherwise, it’s a giant waste of time, plastic and paper.

25 Things About Me

Rules: Once you’ve been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you.

If I tagged you, it’s because I want to know more about you!

UPS, Delivery at the speed of light

Much to my amusement, UPS managed to get me a package 2 minutes before it had even arrived in Saskatoon!

UPS manages to deliever a package before it arrives

UPS manages to deliever a package before it arrives

I seriously wonder how hard it is to track a package in this day and age…
