Looking for an Electronics & Tech Deals Editor/Expert [Paid Job]


I’m looking for an editor to post hot electronics and tech deals daily on SmartCanucks.ca. You must have an excellent knowledge of the prices of different electronics/gadgets/etc. and must be able to differentiate between a seriously hot deal and a mediocre/cold deal.

You should also be constantly active to catch and post the hot deals as soon as they are out because good electronics deals don’t last for long.

You should also have good writing skills and be able to objectively write about the deal, review and evaluate the quality of the products and compare the discounted price to previous sale prices.

If you think you have the skills and knowledge to do a good job and post amazing hot electronics deals that are true bargains please send me an email

smartcanucks at gmail d0t com

Please let me know why you would do a good job. I will contact you with additional information. Thanks!

Thank You Smart Canuck Canada Blog Readers For Using The Suggest A Deal Form!


thanks

I just wanted to say a quick thank you to all the blog readers and for the great support we’ve been receiving via the Suggest A Deal Form!  I’m signed up literally with oodles and oodles of mailing lists but obviously don’t know all the deals in Canada the minute they are released.  This is where the Suggest A Deal Fom comes in!  Boo and I are very impressed with the effort our faithful readers have been putting in of letting us know about the hottest deals first and for this we’d like to say Thank you very much!  You help and support is really appreciated. 

Keep it up Canada!

Yorkdale Mall Toronto Victoria’s Secret Canada Grand Opening August 26th Meet Adriana Lima


victoria_secret

Yorkdale mall has to be one of my top 5 favourite malls. The washrooms are so nice I could probably live in them haha!  On August 26th Victoria’s Secret is having their grand opening and one of their angels Adriana Lima will be there for a meet and greet and signing autographs from 1:30-3:30pm.  Personally in the picture above she scares me. Theres something strange about her eyes. Maybe it’s just a  bad picture.

Anyways they also are offering a free tote when you spend $75 or more.  Click here for more information.

Canadian Recall: Shrek Glasses Recall Now In Canada

Announcements 54 comments

mcdonalds

McDonald’s in the United States first  recalled Shrek glasses and now Canadian McDonald’s have followed. The recall is because of the cadmium in the paint. No word yet as to if there will be a refund for the $1.99 that consumers paid for these limited edition glasses but it is best that you stop using yours right away. I was sorry to read this as I thought they would be great to collect.

Click here to view the discussion thread.

Thanks to TaraF for first posting this information and to Lynn49 for adding the information on the Canadian recall.

New Exciting Content Coming to the Blog + Looking for Creative Writers!


Hi everyone!

I’m sorry I haven’t been blogging as much recently since I’ve had loads of school work to do but I should be done with school forever very soon and I’ll be able to dedicate way more time to SmartCanucks 😀

I already have some very exciting new stuff planned and ready for the blog. Expect loads of gifts and prizes, as well as new and interesting articles and more deals analysis! You should see major improvement to the blog over the next few weeks and we’ll be going full throttle heading into the fall.

I’m also looking for creative writers who can write  fun and entertaining articles (not necessarily about deals) and make the blog more entertaining and enjoyable to read. If you think you have the special skills to write appealing blog posts let me know. This is a paid position although it’s a very very minimal amount. You can reach me at smartcanucks [at] gmail d0t com. Let me know why you’d do a great job if you were to become a creative writer on SmartCanucks 😀
