False. Quite a few people have an almost irrational antipathy to Tim Hortons. This could backfire.

Yeah, I hate Tims.

on, harry rosen maybe? (men's store)

 

[Officer Of The Watch]

I would say chapters as well. Maybe Starbucks instead of Tims?

If they're chicks my wife works at Pier 1 and can get a discount on gift cards for you.... we'll split the disco

Roots.

I was just joking about the Tim's gift certificates. As a US citizen whose Mom hails from Labrador, I always grab Tim's in Deer Lake before I head up to Labrador.

Gap would always be good, too.

hockey tickets through ticketmaster

 

[warmpi]

should post your budget per employee. hockey tickets can be pricey.

for small amounts, tim horton's (coffee, donuts) gift cards are always fine, or even loblaws (supermarket). that would be the practical suggestion.

the bay (a dept store) would also be an okay idea. chapters is also okay.

You could also try Sport Chek. www.sportchek.ca

It's Canada's equivalent to Dick's Sporting Goods.

Hah, coming from a yank this could be perceived as borderline racist. If Canadian were a race.

Said Yank has family roots in Labrador, so I guess I am making this joke against myself, too.

Nope, my Mom grew up in a town up there, and Grandparents still live there. Beautiful area, if not desolate.
