You may have more than face value in your glovebox. Canadian Tire 'Money' is printed using the same process as legal tender including the latest anti-counterfeiting technology. Canadian Tire 'Money' has the same paper content and spot marks -- including a latent image of a maple leaf to the right side of Sandy McTire's left ear. Because the coupons feel like real money, people typically keep Canadian Tire 'Money' even if they don't use it right away. There is even a Canadian Tire Coupon Collectors Club, whose members collect and trade various editions of the 'Money' bills. According to one of the club's members, some of the bills are worth up to $800 in value. http://www2.canadiantire.ca/CTenglish/media/factsStats_ctmoney.html On 19-Dec-06, at 10:13 AM, Automatic digest processor wrote: > Date: Mon, 18 Dec 2006 23:00:47 -0600 > From: Jeff Palmer <jpalmer@MTS.NET> > Subject: Re: Crappy Tire was Re: Monday Meanderings & Musings ;-) > > I'll give you $10 cash for it!
