Dammit Timmies!

So Tim Horton's has decided on a smart yet kind of annoying move for their new recycling bins. Well for one it isn't just a recycling bin its an all in one bin. Paper, plastic and normal trash. But these old bins are everywhere, so they taped them shut, from just standing in line I witness more then half the people in there go up to one of these try to open it, swear and either leave their garbage on top of the bin or wander about angrily/confused until they found the new bin.

Packaging Update

I'm actually glad JVC redid the marshmallow earbud packaging. As you can see from this picture the package shrunk. It's also not bulky and oddly shaped, it makes it a pain to put up on the wall *I work at an electronics store*

Kings and Queens


New brand on the drugstore shelves called Kings and Queens, they stand out from everything else and really caught my eye a few months ago, so I snapped these pictures of them. Im a sucker for damask patterns.

Honey, Honey


The other day I found two great new products in my local tea isle. The first one is a squeezable bag type of honey, I really like the idea, seems less messy and easier to use, only wish there was a reveal on the bag somewhere.

The second one I adore, they are solidified honey hexagons, with a cute honeycomb pattern on them, just like sugar cubes but for honey! The package is a hexagon as well, really ties everything together. I was going to buy these but they were a little too overpriced : (

WOW FACE LIFTS ALL AROUND!?

Looks like Arizona has also picked up the idea of plastic bottles, though I have to say i prefer the look of the cans. These aren't bad. They might have even been around for awhile and I just never notices *shrug*

Another Face Lift!

Looks like Sobe got a facelift too! Found this a while ago and never posted it. The new bottles are plastic and ten times easier to open.

Face Lift



The Ardene's on Queen Street in Toronto got a face lift recently. It looks a lot cleaner and a lot less cluttered. It looks more mature design wise but still holds all the fun and funky items and all the great deals!

Country Style


I really love the cups from country style its so personal.

Woosh


Amazing how it doesn't take much to make a bottle stand out and be something interesting by just curving the bottle. Very elegant looking bottle I found awhile back in an LCBO.

RAGE-TASTIC

Ok, please tell me why this exists. I was walking by the Walmart and i saw this leeched to the front of it. Yeah that's a freaking Pass card thing for your credit card... USING YOUR CREDIT CARD ON A VENDING MACHINE. Listen i don't care if it's convenient, if you don't have enough change to buy a goddam drink then don't go putting it on your freaking credit card. Better yet, go the hell into the damn Walmart and buy a case of goddamn pop
