Canadians, we’re everywhere
Get in my bellah!!!
I had sushi for lunch today. This makes me very happy. Given the Swiss prices for it, it’s not something I can get away with often. For this, I miss Bishoku and the thrice-weekly lunches I used to have there when I was working on Montreal.
Yay, credit card security!
So, scenario: my aunt in the hospital doesn’t want flowers (it’s depressing to see them die) and would prefer timbits cause, you know, timbits rock! I think that this is a fantabulous idea and wanted to buy a prepaid Tim Hortons card for my cousin to act as my proxy. Now, annoyingly, Tim Hortons assumes that only people living in Canada or the US will every buy their products, and as such, you can only give a North American billing address.
I put my parents’ address down when registering, and ordered the gift card. As a side note, 7 bucks to ship a small plastic card is highway robbery, but whatever. When I went to check out, I put my Swiss visa details and, lo and behold, the payment went through. Even though the form very prominently told me to ensure that my billing details were correct. Which, you know, using a Canadian address to process a Swiss credit card, makes perfect sense.
Still, if my aunt gets her timbits, I will be happy (and slightly envious).
