A friend of mine on Facebook had a status update I found interesting. Since it was from my home town, I had to take a peek and see what was going on… What I read was so sad and appalling how anyone could treat a customer this way, especially a little boy!!!

From Facebook:

We were at Eastgate Mall in Hamilton and decided to get something to eat. My two grandson’s ordered subs not toasted. When my grandson opened his it was toasted.. He has difficulty eating sometimes because of his cancer. I took it back and told the man this is toasted so could you please give him another bun. He said I only make what is ordered. I told him he never ordered toasted cause he can not eat it that way. Well not only did he not change the sub, he kept the sub and his money.

They paid $21 for 2 subs and 2 small drinks. I totally lost it on this guy and he just laughed. This is the owner of subway in Eastgate mall. Everyone was coming over and offering to buy him food including the security officers that this guy called. The next day my grandson was admitted to hospital because of his cancer. I phoned subway and all he got was don’t do this again and they gave me a $20 gift certificate.

This man should not be in business and my goal is to see he is not…I have received a lot of feedback from other people about this man. I would like to hear from everyone, your opinions and from anyone that has had a bad encounter with this man. I want this to go to the top.

Since Subway just swept this under the rug, I thought this needed some more exposure. Retweet, send @subwayontario a tweet, post it on your blog, and go “Like” the Facebook page. Not only was this man rude, but regardless of a little boy having cancer or not, how do you treat ANY of your customers this way????  This Subway is located in Eastgate Square in Stoney Creek Ontario (75 Centennial Pky N East Gate Square Hamilton ON L8G 2C7  Tel: 905-573-8836).

Please share this story with others, let’s get Subway to do something about this….

We all know once the holidays are over, it’s one of the best times to travel! January and February prices drop, people are back to work and it’s probably one of the best times to take a vacation. So if you have those vacation days saved up, and are looking to get away, now is the best time to do it, but how can you make sure you’re getting the best deal on a local, national or international flights? LOOK ONLINE! 

Twitter and Facebook can be a life saver or rather money saver for so many different things including travel.  For instance if you’re looking for a New York accommodation take a peek at social networking sites, you may find twitter only deals that not everyone knows about, or only last for an hour or two. Don’t forget to sign up for alerts as well. Email newsletters from airlines, travel agencies and online travel booking sites can send you deals and coupons that you may not find anywhere else. A lot of online sites have specials on round-trip flights that only go out to their email subscribers.

Web sites can be a great service, if you have some time, and really want to get away but just aren’t too sure where to go, or maybe you’re not picky check out all the deals on travel sites. Do a search for everywhere rather than a specific location. You’d be surprised at some of the cheap packages you can get for places you might not have even thought about taking a vacation to.

Also remember, there are times to buy and times to not buy. The best days to travel (if you’re looking to travel cheap) is on a Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday. Fridays and Sundays are the most expensive and busiest, so if you can do travels on an ‘off’ day you’ll not only be more comfortable and less ‘hurried’ but you’ll also get the cheaper rates.

Don’t forget those frequent flyer programs as well, sign up, even if you don’t travel a lot, sometimes you’ll find a surprise email with promo codes and coupons for the next time you might want to travel.

What are some of your own tips you’ve used for booking a trip? Any favorite sites you go to? Best places to find great packages and prices? Share them with the rest of us!

2012 marks a significant anniversary. It will be my husband and myself 10 year anniversary!!! I can’t believe 10 years have simply flown by so fast.

Since we didn’t get a honeymoon, for years we’ve been saying for our 10 year that we wanted to go on vacation, together…WITHOUT CHILDREN! I’m crossing fingers and praying that this actually happens this year.

I’ve been doing some research and looking around in different places for a really nice place to go, we’ve looked everywhere, even for a Los Angeles accommodation as that was a though, but we think we’ve decided to head to Vegas. I’ve never been, hubby has never been and I’m so excited to go! However, hubby isn’t really a gambler, so I’m wondering if this is the best spot for us to go?

I’m sure more than a handful of you have been to Vegas at one time or another, what do you say? What else is there to do in Vegas besides gamble? I know there’s some great shows, but is there anything else? A good place for a couple to spend their 10 year anniversary?

I’d love to hear from some of you Vegas non-virgins. What are some good places to stay? Tips? Anything that’s a MUST DO when you’re there? Let me know, we haven’t decided WHEN we’re going to go yet, but I’d like to do my research before we put some money down and decide this is a go for sure.

I’ll tell you what…I’m BUSY! Since the girls are both in school now, it seems I’m busier than ever, I thought I’d have all this time on my hands, but I find that I’ve gotten myself into more things now than ever, which means sometimes my house gets put on the back burner.

Just the other day, I had a huge blow up on my hubby and kids about helping out around the house. Sure, the blow up on everyone worked for like a day and everyone chipped in, but beyond that, it’s back to normal. I NEED HELP and have to figure out a way to do it.

We’ve tried reward systems, chore charts etc. and like my blow up, it works for a little while and then fails because either I don’t keep up with it, (because again, it’s something else I have to do) or no one else in the house keeps up with it…My Kids! It’s been a while since we’ve done the chore chart route again, so I’m thinking since they’re a little older now, maybe it will work again, it’s worth a try.

GoalForIt.com provides FREE chore charts for young kids, tweens and even teens. You can create your own personalized chart in just a few minutes and use it either online, or print one off. Not only do they provide chore charts, but their charts also can help children understand and correct behavior by using a behavior chart, or learn lessons like money management.

GoalForIt.com also provides you with an optional reward system which can help you give additional positive reinforcements which allows kids to earn points. You can also create To-Do Lists, and Goal Setting Lists.

You can use the personalized chore charts to help get your kids excited and involved by having them help you create their own chart. You can even share their chore chart with others if you’d like, maybe with Grandma online, that way everyone can keep track of how well (or not so well) the kids are doing with their daily routines.
