Ignorant carnie at the corn fest

So last night we took our boys ages 6 and 3 to the Corn Festival, they went on rides and then played games. The boys each wanted something from two different games so my husband asked the carnie at two different games what he would have to pay (to basically buy these things out right) to be sure each of our boys got what they wanted. My 6 year old wanted a Minecraft toy we were told the cost would be $10.00 to guarantee he'd get it and my husband agreed. So my oldest played his game and wouldn't have won but he did because we paid out right, he got his minecraft toy and was happy.

Now let's go to the game my youngest choose......
He wanted a stuffed Minion (and the guy knew that) the guy told my husband for $10.00 he will guarantee him a prize from the wall (so again my husband agrees to it knowing that our little one will get his minion which was on the wall and also would be happy)
When he was done playing the game the jerk carnie proceeds to tell us we can pick from this tiny crap piece section of the lower wall with garbage stuffed animals. Now we have a very unhappy and disappointed 3 year old crying because he didn't get his stuffed minion with a heartless carnie standing there watching this all unfold with no emotion or apology . This is what we got for 10.00.....
A garbage Santa Claus with a missing bow on his boot.
While I was as angry about it as my husband was I kept it under control because the boys were there. My husband on the other hand told the creep exactly what he needed to hear. This jerk should have told us that the minion was not included and we wouldn't have wasted $10.00 playing his game to win a dollarama toy.
JERK!!!!

Grandma who cares and teenagers who don't

This afternoon my girlfriend and I took our 5 kids to Mcdonald's playland on Manning Road. This playland does not offer seating in the actual playroom, so my friend and I sat at a table while our 3 eldest played. A 2 yr old and twin 4 yr olds. They played for about an hr, we checked in the room every few minutes. All of a sudden we could heard loud cursing so we ran over to find 4 teenage boys climbing up and down the slide and cursing at the top of their lungs. An older lady had already gone in and asked they to play nice. I went in and told the boys that the age limit is only 2-10!! I was so mad, the little ones were all scared and upset. I made the boys leave and I followed them outside where they got on their bikes, I told them that behaviour is unacceptable. So nice lady who got in the room to help ty! And to the 4 teenages in playland, SHAME on you for going somewhere you are not allowed and swearing and screaming at little kids! Go home and stay there until you learn some manners!!

THEIF!!!

I was just at family fruit market on Mercer and wyandotte. This store is amazing! They have great produce, great prices and very friendly staff.
A somalian man was in there before me. He was headed towards wyandotte. He's about 6'4"
He paid for a $2.59 item with a $100 bill. Lady asked if he had smaller. He said now, so she took it andgave him change. He then proceeds to the $1 bin near the front of the store, and steals a $1 bag of peppers. Really!? What a low life! i hope you're happy andbthey were worth it, because they now know what you look like and who you are. I just had to share as this angered me! Stores, be on the look out. I hope it doesn't happen to these guys again, because I like this store.

Red Light Runner

At around 5:30pm today, this older gentleman on a motorcycle decided he was just too much in a hurry to wait at the red light at Campbell and Grove (a residential intersection). There are kids that cross there all the time. You were witnessed by at least 6 other drivers that were patiently waiting for the light to turn green. I hope someone recognizes you and turns you in.

Impatient Parking lot driver

n our way out of downtown Food Basics, walking through parking lot with my spouse, I was narrowly missed by a driver speeding into a parking space. We waited for him to get out at which point my hubby informed him how close he came to hitting me. We were met with a hostile and belligerent response from the driver of the offending vehicle. Thankfully there was no further confrontation. I sure as heck hope, sir, you end up in jail before you actually hit someone. Still somewhat unerved by the whole siuation :( time of occurance: approx. 9:55 a.m., Thurs Aug. 27th Olive green Dodge Caravan

Bike theft

Bike theft has become a major issue in Windsor. There are many people who rely on their bikes as their only means of transportation. There is a facebook page called Stolen Bikes of Windsor where people post photos and information about their stolen bikes as a means of getting the word out there and hopefully recovering their property. Recently someone posted the photos in the link below and we have had no luck identifying the man. Does anyone know who this is? We need to report this to the police..
