Who is that guy on the money anyway?

Canadian Tire (a Canadian equivalent to Ace Hardware or Lowe's for all my American readers) is planning to offer financial services now. People better be ready to read the fine print on their accounts and/or contracts, lest the store remunerate their customers with Canadian Tire money (only redeemable at said store).

For those unfamiliar with Canadian Tire money, the store gives you a bonus of this stuff based on a percentage of what you buy. As a kid, I used to hoard the stuff to try to buy myself things I couldn't otherwise afford. Sorry Mom......... it was me that spent it all.
