Flyers

We used to have a newsletter/flyer printed out every month for our store’s customer – but when our kid came a long, the spouse didn’t have much time to do it anymore.  When the kid got older – we became pretty busy just managing the store alone – so we didn’t do it anymore.  But [...]

Movie Gallery is no longer renting movies and has started their liquidation sale, currently all movies and games are on sale for 20% off the sticker price. Not a great deal, yet, since a newer movie that’s tagged at $19.99 will cost you $16. Before the liquidation started they had a buy 2 [...]

Since I recently found out that Facebook allows businesses to set up a regular page now instead of having to create a group for the business I decided to switch things over. The old ‘group’ will be deleted soon (when I figure out how to do it) so if you’re a member of the [...]

Town Council flip-flops

Posted on March 16, 2010 - Filed Under News, This Town | Leave a Comment

Not too long ago the town council made a decision to remove the Ferry Terminal from a motion that would see control of it handed over to the YAIC. I thought that was a sound decision, especially after learning that Frank Anderson is the CEO of the YAIC. We certainly don’t want him [...]

Along with the hockey cards I also ordered a box of Scourgewar cards from the World of Warcraft trading card game. It’s similar to Magic: the Gathering but I haven’t had a chance to play it so far. The big draw for these cards are the loot cards that you can find in [...]

Read some surprising news on NovaNews this afternoon, they released the name of one of the guys busted nearby with a few pounds of weed. Unless there’s more than one J. Burgess in town he’s been a long time customer here, a decent one too, pays his late fees and buys the occasional game. [...]

Got an Opinion in Yarmouth? Too bad!

Posted on March 10, 2009 - Filed Under News, Ranting, This Town | Leave a Comment

I stopped buying the Vanguard over a year ago because I didn’t feel it was worth it. The ‘news’ is usually not that new and the only interesting thing were the Letters to the Editor. Most of the news that’s in the Vanguard also gets posted to their online website, NovaNewsNow (click on [...]

2 weeks ago I read on both CJLS and Nova News that John Watkins was reported missing and the RCMP were asking for the public’s help in locating him. It was mentioned that he might be driving out west to find employment. If that was the case though wouldn’t he have at least [...]

Lobster Fishermen on Strike – Selling Own Product

Posted on December 2, 2008 - Filed Under News, This Country, This Town | Leave a Comment

Yesterday I heard the news that the lobster fishermen are on strike because the price is so low. They’re trying to block shipments out of the area in an effort to get better rates. On the one hand I don’t feel sorry for them. Every year they complain, even when they were [...]

It was a shock the other day when I learned that one of my oldest friends, a guy I’ve known since I was in grade 4, was injured in a recent Taliban ambush that left 3 more Canadian soldiers dead. Ken Power has been over there for just about 6 months now and was [...]
