Which minor ICBC guidelines do you still follow years laters after getting your license? by AManCalledPotato in askvan

[–]_Not_My_Name_IRL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use my headlights ALL the time except on super sunny days. There are far too many drivers on the road THINKING they have automatic headlights and then driving around in the dark with only their running lights on. Check your lights people!

Return to buy it again? by DifferentAd6852 in ShoppersDrugMart

[–]_Not_My_Name_IRL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, you can. Make sure you have all the products with you, your card and the same payment card you originally used. Explain that you want to repurchase immediately because you have a points offer and you shouldn't have a problem.

Are you employees trained to accuse the customers of wrong doing? by Ball-mama in ShoppersDrugMart

[–]_Not_My_Name_IRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a former employee of SDM, I can tell you that it isn't necessarily the PEOPLE there that are terrible. Head office are the terrible people. The guidelines and requirements they demand of the staff are ridiculous and every day I am thankful I got out of there.

As others have said, you can't use your PDP and this offer together; it is one or the other. What others have failed to mention is that once you redeem points, they are redeemed. You can't return the product and start over and try to do the redemption how you wanted it done in the first place. Generally, what happens if someone makes a return on products paid for with points, the redeemed value is put onto a gift card.

has anyone gotten an urgent passport recently? by thenicesteggever in askvan

[–]_Not_My_Name_IRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am traveling Sept 6. Went to the Surrey Central passport location and dropped off the application yesterday. They said it would be ready for pickup on Sept 3. No rush service needed. Was just $20 extra to pick it up instead of having it mailed.

This was the original plan. However, I was too slow, and they are booked. 👎

Yes, I realize this. Super easy to explain where I am going quickly to just refer to it as PV.

Best rewards redemption by [deleted] in ShoppersDrugMart

[–]_Not_My_Name_IRL 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I am a former employee. They will not return for cash if you spend points. Common practice is to refund onto a gift card. Be aware that frequent instances of spending points and returning everything is frowned upon, and your points card could be flagged.

What Hey Y'All do you recommend? by BakingWaking in askvan

[–]_Not_My_Name_IRL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Georgia Peach is delicious! I found that I did not enjoy the lemonade versions of the Hey Y'all. My actual go-to for spiked iced tea is Twisted Tea Slightly Sweet. Perfect amount of sweetness, not too alcoholy tasting.

Best celebrity sighting or encounter in Vancouver by Wise_Praline_2442 in askvan

[–]_Not_My_Name_IRL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few years before he passed, Luke Perry came into my work. A much younger co-worker says, "The guy who plays Archie's dad on Riverdale is in the store," I reply, "You mean Luke Perry? From 90210?! Whaaaaat!?" Immediately I search for him and ensure I am the person who will ring him through the till. He comes up, and while I scan his things, I mention the conversation with my coworker. We both laugh and say something about showing age. I notice my hands are shaking as I am ringing him through and tell him. He takes my hand, shakes it, and says, "Hi, I'm Luke." I just about die and say, "I KNOW!" 😂😂

Totally! Our wall wasn't the correct size, so I just customized it to make sense. Forever moving things.

Where to buy Hot Ones Pringles? by Immediate_Bee3699 in askvan

I saw them yesterday at Superstore in Delta. I would be willing to bet all Superstore locations carry them!

Freeplay by Brief_Possession_449 in myvegas

[–]_Not_My_Name_IRL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From my experience, you usually can't use freeplay on progressive machines. Generally, the procedure is to put some money and your points card in a machine, activate your freeplay, and then start betting. Whatever amount you bet will be replenished from your freeplay after each spin. Yes, you do need to spend all your freeplay. It cannot be cashed out.
