Mods: Feel free to change to a better suited forum. Didn't know where else to put it.
Went and got my Tim card today. I was told it's actually a rechargeable gift card and that they were doing away with the paper gift certificates.
I asked if they were available to buy at all and was told, "No, it's just going to be the Tim Card now."
Me: "So, what happens if I want to send some gift certificates out to my friends serving in Afghanistan?"
Teller: "Oh, I'm sure that they'll have the machine set up there as well."
Me: "I'm pretty sure that they won't."
Teller: "No, no. We were told that EVERY store is on this system."
Me: "You may want to check on that."
Teller asks the manager, and sure enough, no machine at KAF. So the deployed pers are SOL wrt getting Timmies on a gift certificate. The only avenue is to write head office.
Who's up for it? Haven't had a chance to get the mailing and e-mail address for them yet, but will post it when I do.
