What are the cheap things to do in Montreal? Go to Costco!

Last weekend, my girlfriend and I went to Costco. Why did we go there? Because we were bored and because there were lots of free stuff! Walk around the store and there's plenty of food tasting such as beer, wine, cake, chips, everything! You don't even need a membership card to go in the store if you are not planning to buy anything. Here are some options to get in for free:

1. Walk in with some strangers and pretend you are one big happy family
2. Eat at the restaurant and then make your way into the store
3. Pretend to get a membership card and sneak in the store

Free food and the excitement to sneak in the store, a great fun and cheap activity!

Want some free stuff in Montreal? $10 Tim Hortons gift card at Pharmaprix

This Saturday and Sunday, May 30 and May 31st only, you can get a $10 Tim Hortons gift card when you spend $50 or more on almost anything in the store except medications sold exclusively in a pharmacy, stamps, lottery tickets, event tickets, transit tickets and passes, electronic gift cards, Life Experiences^® packages and pre paid phone cards. Wondering what else you could buy at Pharmaprix for $50 or more, I know that if I bring my girlfriend, she can easily buy cosmetics or beauty products for more than $50. Since she's looking for a new nail polish.. hmm.. looks like I might get a $10 gift card this weekend!

Want some free stuff in Montreal? Watch TV for free!

It's the playoffs in the NBA with LeBron James and the Cavaliers versus Dwight Howard and the Orlando Magic in the Eastern Conference and Kobe Bryant and the Lakers versus Carmelo Anthony and the Denver Nuggets. Sounds very interesting, right? Unfortunately, I am too cheap too pay for those cable sports channel such as TSN, RDS, and ESPN. But fortunately for me, I can watch it for free online. Yahoo! Sports has a huge gigantic link, which says "Watch Live" and links to a live coverage on TNT! Saves me from paying top dollars to my satellite provider.

Where to eat cheap food in Montreal? Free Tim Hortons Iced Coffee!

Updated: I thought I was getting the Iced Cappuccino, but unfortunately, they are only giving away the new Iced Coffee which is $1.39 before tax. It took me 10 minutes to walk to the nearest Tim Hortons and 10 minutes waiting at the store before I got my coffee. I finish it in less than 5 minutes on the way back. Oh well, it's free!

Yes that's right! Tim Hortons is offering a FREE small Tim Hortons Iced Coffee tomorrow on May 21, 2009 from 12:00pm to 5:00pm! A great refreshing way to spend your lunch break on a 29°C afternoon sun. And the best part: it's free!
