St Lawrence Market

ALDI, a US chain with over 1300 stores, uses grocery carts that require a 25 cent deposit.

I've been to two different Aldi stores in the US over the past year and neither one had those carts. I did see one in Windsor (a Zehrs, if I remember correctly) about fifteen years ago though. Other than that, I've only seen them in the Toronto area. I always assumed it was just an Ontario thing.

Interesting, because the ALDI website includes a video on how to use their carts with the deposit, lol

I can't imagine that these carts, or the phenomenon of carts being taken off the supermarket property and ending up in ditches, is strictly an Ontario thing.

Bubbles would be out of a job if he lived in Ontario.

The Tim Horton's "Coffee House" is now open at The Esplanade and Jarvis. Looks nice.

What types of coffee do they have?

Presumably their normal rather bland blend plus their dark roast.(See:

Ah didn't now about that. Hopefully it actually tastes like coffee ... unlike their usual insipid brew.

Go to Balzac's just down that little street on the east side of the market -- Market St?

Actually WEST side of the St Lawrence Market and, yes, Market Street.

You are right. I am directionally challenged

Another busted light

I saw another one of the new street lights busted today just east of Jarvis. What are they doing about this? They break at the base as soon as you touch them. Who is our councillor?
