This reminds me of the soap opera coffee ads in the late 80's and early 90's. Wasn't in instant coffee to? Perhaps Tasters choice? I remember they were HUGE in Europe. ~'shudders'~

Whenever I think of those Canadian tire commericals, the first thing that pops into my head is:
"Jack Storm vs. The Mummy".

Gloria was boning the idiot neighbour. If Ted hadn't been distracted by his gadgetry he would have clued in earlier.

good they are the most annoying and super fake couple I have ever seen. I felt like smacking them. They acted like Canadian Tire saved their marriage and lifes problem because of some damn tools like a pressure washer.

Is it them that we should hate, or the marketing people at Canadian Tire? Every marketing ploy gets old and replaced at some point in time, nothing new here. The fact they lasted as long as they did is remarkable. But I won't miss them.

I'm sure we'll see him pop up in Tim Horton's ads, taking his wife and son to a hockey game and reminiscing about how good life was when they used to get there with Masterpad brake pads on their van, and how they could've have tightened their laces with a dial instead of elbow grease.

Too bad Gloria couldn't have run him over with that quad.
I wonder if we will get to "Spend like Santa, and Save like Scrooge" this year now that they are gone?

nah, the nieghbor is just too stupid for words, she needed more than him. i bet is was with the guy who shows up late due to the snow on his windshield... shes banging him and the guy helps him with his wipers to boot! or maybe it is one of the neighborhood guys who were attracted to the sound of the drill a few seasons back - a siren song that lured them to her...
if the guy would only spend as much quality time with her as he does all his tools, she'd be a happy woman.
of course, the read tragedy is the fat son, who will probably go lock himself in the tent with the motomaster geretator, only available at canadian tire, to play dvd's and videogames while his parents go through a messy divorce and have to decide who gets the reflex wipers and who gets the inflatable air pump...
