Where you from? Wagering you just never had the good stuff.
edit: oh and the canadian dollar is lower than the US dollar guys. Can you guys believe how expensive things are?

The camo ones have always been five dollars more, haven't they? Maybe that's what you saw.
They look okay until you go close and notice the three pieces of camo that are shaped like the controller itself. It's so cheesy looking.
EDIT: I've never had a poutine in my life, because I don't/won't eat cheese.
Bonus redemption, yay finally!
I think the 20% seniors discount is a better deal, but I have a shit ton of points I need to spend.
I live in Québec City
I stand by my statement, Poutine is garbage.
The only time I can see myself having some is at 4 am at Ashton after clubbing with a bunch of friends. Because everything else is closed
You didn't fix anything, poutine is awesome in the right places and meh in places with fries that get soggy, barely warm sauce and few cheese curds if at all. I don't know how it is out of Québec but getting some poutine at Frite Alors! made from great belgian fries, good sauce and a good amount of real cheese curds is one of the small joys of life.
Edit: You're in Québec City and still dislike the thing? Oh well, your loss.
I usually would've avatar quoted you but this is the least quotable one you've had for this kind of scenario.
I was wondering the same thing... Its just Fries and Gravy with cheese...

For some reason some people are disgusted by cheese curds. Poutine is delicious, and I haven't even had good poutine. One of the reasons I want to go to Quebec.
still not buying it. Something went wrong at one point or another and it's just a mental block now.
Sorry if I don't find plastic cheese edible.

It should have bacon. Yeah. Bacon. And here's another thought...poutine...made out of Onion Rings. It's one of those, "why haven't they?" kinda thoughts.

All I feel is regret after I eat poutine.

I had a Harvey's double cheeseburger and their bacon poutine the other night, it was pure sex for my mouth. 10/10 Would bang again.

Except they have
Really? Oh well. There goes my chance at becoming a billionaire.
Gaming deals? Didn't your read the sign at the door before you came in? This is the Poutine thread.
If all poutine was like Costco's I'd be on the anti-poutine side. It's primarily the fries though. I don't like how Costco makes them.
Damn it. Now I'm participating in this nonsense too!

Actual retail question: Has anyone had issues applying BestBuy gift cards to old FutureShop orders since the great shutdown?
I fully accept I'm going to have to call it in, but they're not going to have issues finding it? I suspect I have to pay off my Xenoblade X/SMT x FE doubleheader soon.

Can I pop in and say Smoke's Poutine is fucking life-altering? Look it up and prepare to travel to the closest one.
you're about to get wailed on by poutine snobs

I don't care that it's basically the McDonald's of poutine (which is weird to say now because McDonald's HAS poutine). The pulled pork poutine is so damn good. The nacho one too.

I need your advice SuperiorGAF. I've got both the PS4 and XB1 versions of the Wicher 3 CE pre ordered, but I'm not sure which to keep. The PS4 version will obviously be better performing, but I'm genuinely interested in the cloth map and Gwent cards that come with the XB1 CE. Do you guys the performance gap will be big enough to render those physical exclusives moot?

Don't tell me they're shutting down what's left of em in CanadaCan we get a moment of silence in the memory of Arby's?
I actually like Arby's from time to time, but they are literally empty every single time I go to one. I'm amazed they are still open.
I'm also perplexed they haven't introduced a curly fries poutine to their menu, everyone else has poutine now and it's a no brainer. People would probably actually go to one to try it.

Any still even exist? In Toronto the last one was at Sherway Gardens and that one closed like a year ago, and another was at Square One in Mississauga when I was there in 2010, when I went back last year, gone.
If ANY still exist, they must be like less than a dozen... in the whole country.
there are some but mostly in smaller suburbs and towns
In the GTA there's one in Ajax and one in Burlington
Arbys still has a big footprint in Alberta iirc
