This is not crafty, but I am very very excited about it, so I thought I’d share. I took a trip yesterday to The Happiest Place On Earth: Canadian Tire.
My love for this store is true and unironic and totally unreasonable. I’m pretty sure that 99% of it actually comes from the Canadian Tire Guy ads a few years ago (I was, I think, the only Canadian to be devastated when they got rid of him), but to be honest, it is a surprisingly useful place. If you need something totally outrageous and random, odds are, Canadian Tire will not only have it, but it’ll be on sale.
Case in point? My latest purchase, which hopefully will stick with me for a while: solar-powered Christmas lights. Only at Canadian Tire would those ever even exist.
