Hi Volks: `Let me share with you how I saved $20.00 at Canadian Tire today - an great "lesson learned" IMHO. (Same place I bought my Bosch H4's for the Igloo) I went there looking to buy the Coleman "BlackCat" propane catalyic heater, (SAFE for indoor use - if 6 cm^2 ventialtion provided, 3000 BTU). ....which I thought I have seen for about $45 on the shelf some time before. I noticed it was now marked $79.00. Hmmm. I approached a salesperson and asked -"Could you tell me if this heater was on sale recently?" She referenced her computer, and said, "Yes Sir - one month ago this was priced at $59.00." I said, "Is possible for me to get it now at that price?" "CERTAINLY SIR", she said. She wrote up a rain-check - and I saved $20.00, without really even trying. They apparently have a policy of always selling goods currently in stock, at the last sale price. TMOTS: It never hurts to ask, no matter what store you go to. Marshall Ruskin 84 Westy "Iron Igloo" Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada Founding Member of "Vanagon's Anonymous"
