I missed the store promotion too, so I may have to resort to ebay. I noticed they are selling around $1 - $1.50 regularly (plus shipping!). One seller had a roll of 25 for sale in special Canadian Tire paper ... that was going for a premium. |

I can't think of any large US store that has a metal coin promotion.

OMG, here we go.
After the hype of the 1st one, we now will have to spend 75 bucks to get the remainder.

I picked up my coin just a few minutes ago. I also got a free Canadian Tire coin holder. I'll post pictures in a little bit.

So here's the first coin (hockey):   Here's the free holder I got as well. There are 3 coin punch outs in the middle section already removed, and there's 3 more on the right section not removed. Judging the the background theme I think it's a clue that there might be 3 more coins coming out in the fall.  |

Oh wow, thanks Tiker, since reading your post I've completely lost interest in this series. Nice detective work! You've deduced that 7 of these tokens will be released by Fall 2010 and god knows how many to follow. You have to spend $25 per visit on 7 separate visits to get 7 tokens and they won't give you more than one per visit, so they're not easy to collect. After each coin is offered for a limited time they probably all get shipped back to head office, making it impossible to get them later in the stores. After 2 years I imagine they'll offer the first 12 tokens in a collector card for $25.95 to use up old stock. I might get one or two by accident but I'm not letting myself get hooked on this!!  |

^^^ malibu ^^^ I really agree. I'll settle for the first of the series. Maybe C.T. will go all R.C.M. with it... a new design every month. Announcing the Canadian Tire Garden Hose Coin Series... featuring the rare BurstMaster3000 Hose & Nozzle System !! yay  |

How come the coin holder doesn't have a slot for the 1st limited edition coin?
HHmmmmm??

Might as well finish off with the last coin of the winter set. My wife has been asking for some storage bins (so that I can clean the basement) so I got the last coin.   |
