Just as I finished with the food preparation for our supper ( marinated beef on special sauce made from scratch of the finest fresh pineapple, spices, soy sauce, garlic and onions blended together, mixed them up and presto that's the sauce for the beef). I should have lemon juice or lime juice but forgot to buy from the supermarket. Oh yes! We have to shop from the nearest supermarket for our raw materials in order to have nutritious food at the table. My husband worked so hard to be able to provide his family the basic necessities and essential supplement and to survive this so called "life." Life that is sometimes a bit tad boring because we are in the rural area, sort of country life where houses are made of bungalow, ranchers and few buildings up to 2 to three or four storeys. There's no skyscrapers here. So, my work at home was halt for a while from a call at the fabric store offering half price sale of so many textiles they have at the store. Wow! Goody. It's great to know. As a club member the store usually sends me an enveloped mail with their flyer in it to let me know that they have sale items for the time period designated. A call from one of the clerks is something unusual. I don't know if I can go there after hubby paid two miscellaneous bills: eye check-up, opthalmic lens and frame >eyeglasses for my son which cost him $329.00 and my other son had a dental check-up the other day and the cost for cleaning (without the filling) is $240.00. There that's the expenses we have to deal with here. Eye care and dental care is too expensive in Canada.
I bet there are too many kids here in this country that are in need of eye glasses but can't afford them or kids who need dental check-up and dental or dentures replacement. I watched a topic of debate actually a documentary about dental office and their dentists and clerks who were caught cheating on their patients, trying to lure them to pay so much for an ordinary dental problem. So be beware of this. We want to let them know that they cannot cheat with us. That every time there will be hidden cameras or hidden investigators to investigate on what is being sold out there: whether goods or services. First of all we don't want to be a victim and that's good enough to protect consumers' rights.
