Hey everyone, my sister is fundraising the Entertainment book at school for $32.50. I have a friend downtown who you can hook up with (beside the Skydome @ Cityplace) Monday - Friday if you're downtown, or I live in Brampton but work near Scarborough Town Center and could meet up with anyone in and around those areas. If you're planning on getting one anyways, why not help out a student? Let me know. You can reach me here with a PM or via email at albert13@gmail.com

Can someone with the 2005 Book highlight some of the cool deals for those who never flipped through book at all? A scan of the index would be nice too :). I would like to get one, but all I know right now is that you get a whole bunch of "Coupons" for various unknown restaurants and entertainments right now :(

Lets see... are there coupons for the Keg? Montana? Pickle Barrel? Milestone? CN Tower? Angus Beef? Dave & Buster's?

Thanks!

Ordered the Ottawa version last week ... $20 through my GF's employer. Must say we used well over $200 worth of the coupons.

I am totally up for trading coupons. PM me if you are looking for something in particular. It's likely that I won't be using it. GTA book.


I'll be looking for Yonge/bloor area coupons for lunch.

I also signed up for their annual continuous service program and they will discount you $7 for the 2005. So I got it for $20 USD and free shipping.

I just called and cancelled, so I can do the same for the 2006 book.

I'm afraid to order anything from the states right now due to the new strict customs rules, and also someone said that there is about a 4 week backlog of parcels at the border.

For those who obtained great deals on the Entertainment book it would be nice if you could give us RFD'ers some details on this. Much appreciated.

$33...from someone at work too...

The way i figure it, i'm using it right away, the money is going to charity and will probably make back my cost about 5-6 times over...

ESPECIALLY, if I get the coupons from you Ottawa guys - the ones I want, I am positive you won't want....

For businesses that appear in the Entertainment book they are able to sell the books to their employee's for $20 CND.

I picked two books up for 20 each about two months ago from my workplace.

If you have a friend that works at any of the places in there try asking them to talk to their managers about it. I was offered a book from a friend that works at McDonalds for 20 as well.

Anybody who still wants to order, you can order through www.MyPoints.com and you get 750 points + 50 points sign-up bonus.

If you don't mind, I can refer your for MyPoints (i get 100 and you get 50, i think). Too bad I ordered it before I got my MyPoints account from another RFD'er. Plz pm me with your e-mail

Maybe it's me, but wouldn't one be better off getting free coupons? I mean... for a lot of restuarants, you can find the deals online...

I dunno... $20 for coupons kinda seems like it defeats the point.

Am I missing something or is the 2 for 1 Royal Winter Agricultural Fair coupon no longer in the GTA book?

Keelie
Nov 6th, 2004, 07:27 PM
the one here isnt worth more than $5.00 IMO

we got one free at work and passed it around, took what we wanted. but to pay money for it? totally not worth it.

Hi there,

Just wondering if any of you who ordered it online from Entertainment.com were charged duty or anything as I couldn't clearly see if it is coming from the US or Canada.

RGDS & TIA

Me too!
I will call the office tomorrow in Vancouver and ask them for some info. I didnt have a chance to do it last week. The US company says the book is shipped from the USA.
