I have the master card CT option and i pay everything with it . Grocery , dentist , city tax and so on . I became elite customer last year . It ' s amazing how fast it cumulates now , over $300 a year anyway . I also found a way to spend it else where . For instance , we got a new $650 computer 2 months ago and CT financed $316 of it . What ' s the trick ? quite simple . I had that $316 of CT money cumulated on my MC option card . I went in and bought a $349.99 bicycle , brought it back the day after , saying that my wife didn ' t want it . So , what they do , they credit it on your credit card and it ' s instantly tranformed in $$$ you can spend anywhere you want to ...  

Ho ya ! I remember seeing a flash on TV about this guy who ' s in the guiness records . He had a suitcase ful of CT $$$ . Some $5,000 , i think ...

Here's what I should do...

Hello,

I am looking to purchase various amounts of Gottlieb Premier pins and would be willing to provide you with $0.50 cash for every $1 of actual value of a Premier pin. For example if you have $1000 in Gottlieb pins I will be willing to offer you $500 Cash. Keep in mind that Gottlieb Premier pins are only good in a basement and Cash can be used anywhere .

Please do not contact me with any amount under 10 pins. I am willing to pick up depending on the amount available. If you are willing to deliver I have no conditions or reservations for minimum amounts.

Thanks for your interest and if your have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact me.

There is a bar here in London Joe Kools,

Years ago they took CT money at par... go get your drink on and pay with CT money, not sure if they still do I seem to think they got inyo some trouble...

A gas station near my place does the same. The boss says he uses the CT money for supplies and tools for the garage.

There's one here in Toronto too...Called the Done-right if I remember correctly (I was a little drunk last I was there...) They always have a pinball machine at the end of the bar too. Decent little dive bar.

Also, that's genious Whizz.

I wonder if anyone is bold enough to try and counterfit CT money to take advantage of this "trade".

So photocopy away...

I think that would still consitute fraud but not at the same level as duping Cdn $$

There was a story in the papers today about two guys getting nailed for making fake TTC tokens

CT will eventually be pulling away from their own money and giving points cards like everyone else soon enough...

They already are, I've got the CT Mastercard, every purchase I get CT Money, it's the best free rewards card I've ever had, I've gotten like $400 or more in CT money just from making the same everyday purchases I was going to be making anyway.  I never even see the paper CT money anymore.
