Light up your Inner 'Griswold' at Canadian Tire This Weekend

TORONTO, Nov. 26 /CNW/ - Canadian Tire is offering its customers up to $2 million dollars in free bonus cards this weekend for NOMA LED Christmas light string purchases. Every set of NOMA LED Christmas string lights sold for more than $14.99 will garner a $10 bonus card good for any future purchase at Canadian Tire stores - with no limit on the number of bonus cards a consumer could earn from these purchases. For example, a consumer purchasing five sets of NOMA LED holiday string lights would receive $50 in free bonus cards.

"Canadians love to decorate their homes for the holidays, and they know they can trust Canadian Tire for the best selection and the most innovative products," said T.J. Flood, Vice President, Merchandising, Canadian Tire. "Traditionally, the last weekend in November is when people start to get their homes holiday ready, so there truly couldn't be a better time for this kind of a promotion. We can't wait to see the transformation of our neighbourhoods as they embrace their inner 'Griswold' and light up with holiday spirit over the next few weeks."

This deal applies to any NOMA LED holiday string lights, including some of the newest and most innovative top-quality lights on the market:

• NOMA True-Glow LED Lights, which combine long lasting LED technology with the traditional look and glow of traditional Christmas bulbs
• NOMA Dual LED Lights, which change from one colour to another with the flip of a switch, essentially making them two sets of lights in one
• NOMA Customized Coloured Lights, which let you choose from a palette of eight solid True Glow colours or a customized colour anywhere in between, at the push of a button

Canadian Tire is not affected by the LED light recalls seen from three other national retailers during this last week. Canadian Tire's NOMA Christmas lights are Canada's most trusted brand and are sourced through an exclusive factory that is unconnected with the suppliers to other retailers. Canadian Tire offers a five-year guarantee on all Christmas lights sold in the store.

Canadian Tire's $2 Million Christmas lights offer to consumers is available at all 482 locations only this Saturday, November 27 and Sunday, November 28, where stores are open; offer is limited to in-store inventory, while quantities last.
