I am absolutely disgusted with the price Canadian Tire in Bracebridge expected me to pay, to…read moreunsieze a break drum. I was quoted $2,600 for the repair. After negotiating with the mechanic to lower the cost (because I talked with people in the community stating that the part itself only costs around $72) they were only able to get it down to $1,600. After deciding I still didnt want to pay that much for the repair, I got Canadian tired to tow my car to Town and Country in Port Carling. The mechanics in Port Carling told me that Canadian Tire didn't even reconnect my breaks in the car before sending it away. I got the quote from Town and Country and they are charging me $300, which includes the reconnection of the breaks and the unsiezing of the car part. So disappointed and infuriated that CT was trying to charge me an arm and a leg for a small fix on my vehicle. Will not be going back there for any future car repairs.

The first time I couldn't be satisfied more, the last time I was in a bit of a hurry, and the main associate I was working with left to check something and ended up taking a bit too long, so I ended up having to leave without being able to get everything I needed. All-in-all, I was quite happy with this location though, and I'd definitely go back.

It would be difficult to describe our purchase of a Temperpedic from Mattresses of Muskoka as…read moreanything less than a complete disaster. Without getting into nitty gritty details they: * Gave us a different mattress than the mattress we purchased * Placed that mattress in the mattress cover of the mattress we *did* purchase (see what they did there? Fraud, anyone?) * Set up our mattress upside down (so the memory foam was on the bottom - I didn't notice for months, until a back ache made me unzip the mattress cover (and detect the fraud)) * After a year of pestering them and threatening legal action, they finally replaced the incorrect mattress...with another mattress that was different than the one we originally purchased. * Set up the mattress on a non-approved base, which just broke last month. The legs literally folded over and the mattress sunk in the middle. Yes, we paid for an official Temperpedic base. (So, if you're counting, that's a second fraud). I had an even more scathing review posted on Google for the year I pestered them, but I agreed to take it down if they replaced our mattress. But now there's the issue with the frame as well. So, MoM, if you're listening (and I'm sure you are): I will (once again) take this review down if/when I receive a refund for the Tempur base that we purchased. I'd also like a refund for the difference between what you charged us, and what the replacement mattress you gave us cost. If this review is still up, the reader can know that Mattresses of Muskoka continues to stand behind their frauds, and has not yet refunded us as requested. You probably don't want to be next, right?

It's easy to spend a lot of time in here, despite the siren song of a beautiful Muskoka day!

"No, I've been here 20 years!" she replies cheerfully. Which means this is the exact same shop I've browsed the last eight summers running, and I had no idea what the name was. "Oh," I say sheepishly. "Then you've redecorated?" Fortunately, she replies with an enthusiastic nod. New jewelry cases, a ton more women's clothing, a reorganization of display stands and shelves, and a funky new Anthropolgie-esque inventory of home goods. This means that I have rather a few souvenirs in my possession that've come from Golden Valley Trading: a pair of amber teardrop earrings, some metallic sandals, a fleecy Muskoka sweatshirt, and a deliciously-scented tub of Fruits & Passion Monoï body butter than disappeared years ago and she hasn't carried since. *pout* My powers of observation are clearly suffering; but it *is* good to know that one of my most reliable sources for cottage summer souvenirs isn't going anywhere any time soon.
