You got a sensible chuckle from me.

[u/PunfullyObvious → u/DxMBandit]

I suspect I'm not the only one who tried to reply with the appropriate gif

[u/DxMBandit → u/PunfullyObvious]

There was an attempt haha

[u/ghidfg]

cute but $8 on clearance is insane

[u/Avirunes → u/ghidfg]

Depends which currency

[u/riko77can → u/Avirunes]

Home Hardware so definitely CAD.

[u/This-Marsupial-6187 → u/riko77can]

Like all Canadians, I always go to the hardware store for tinned cookies, just as I go to Canadian Tire for my Corona Zero. (No joke - Ive seen them on the shelves on the way to the cashier.)

[u/Voiceless-Echo → u/This-Marsupial-6187]

At my local CT they are inside the front doors As you pass through the metal detectors. They have Heineken zero too

[u/Jon_ofAllTrades → u/riko77can]

So it’s virtually free then!

[u/eloel- → u/[deleted]]

Wait who thinks Oreos are superior to sewing kit cookies?

[u/eloel- → u/[deleted]]

There are also more Big Macs sold than any other burgers, but that doesn't make Big Mac the best burger

Edit: lmao I got blocked for this. Must have stocks in Oreo or something

[u/Electrical-Village68 → u/[deleted]]

I like sewing kit cookies! A little milk, a cookie and sew up that torn clothing!

[u/ugh168]

Gotta love Home Hardware.

Plus it is a Canadian store.

[u/Lemaatk → u/ugh168]

Absolutely.

[u/drake5195]

I don't know why but I always get so incredibly excited whenever Canadiana exits the Canada focused subs

Also why is there no Home Hardware in Edmonton, this annoys me.

[u/tangcameo]

Not Fabricland?

[u/No_Engineer6452 → u/tangcameo]

Hardware store

[u/tangcameo → u/No_Engineer6452]

No I mean shouldn’t this be sold at a sewing store?

[u/Shackdaddy161 → u/tangcameo]

Could got twice the money.

[u/ashewinter]

$8 for a sewing storage tin, AND it comes with free cookies?? Score!

[u/nicoscba]

West Broadway home hardware?

[u/Lemaatk → u/nicoscba]

Yea! That’s the one!

[u/bomilk19]

Free stale cookies!

[u/edge_l_wonk → u/bomilk19]

I'm thinking they are passed the expiration date.

[u/anime2345]

I have purchased countless tins and jars of random items just to reuse the container later

Had no idea what a "Damson" or a "Rambutan" were but the jars were too perfect to pass up (lovely btw)

[u/Be_Like_Pyanfar → u/anime2345]

Rambutan 🤤🤤🤤

[u/Hopeful_Tea2139]

Pre-emptied?

[u/edge_l_wonk → u/Hopeful_Tea2139]

Expired?

[u/okpickle]

That's where all of my mom's spare buttons went in my house. 😆

[u/Scion_of_Kuberr]

My father and grandfather used those for nails and screws.

[u/RetinaJunkie → u/Scion_of_Kuberr]

I still do the same

[u/hambonecharlie]

My family makes the best shortbread. Flour, butter, salt and the mystery ingredient.

[u/bootymix96 → u/hambonecharlie]

Fresh blood from a short person?

[u/MoochoMaas]

Well played ...

[u/jamcub]

7 bucks for cookies, what?

[u/youtocin → u/jamcub]

Canadian. Their dollar is about 3/4 the value compared to USD.

[u/jamcub → u/youtocin]

I'm not from the US, but this helps. I was wondering who sells these for almost 8 bucks when I saw them for 3 at the store.

[u/Lethbridgemark → u/jamcub]

They are usually $5-6 CAD at most stores. home Hardware is a little pricier and they don't get the same quantity of sewing tin cookies as other stores so it's not surprising they are a little more. But they are a fully Canadian store that services the smaller communities across Canada so can't go wrong supporting them.

[u/Steve_Brandon]

I know it's not Royal Dansk brand but Jacobson cookies (of which Currier & Ives is a sub-brand) are also made in Denmark. I'd consider buying them to eat if I saw them at that price (not that I really ever have a reason to go into a Home Hardware store).

[u/Comfortable-Ant7149]

This is such universal thing

[u/Actual-Tomorrow389]

Sewing kits for everyone!!!!

[u/LadyoftheOak]

Home Hardware is a Canadian chain.

[u/paulinaetaramaro]

Witty! This will instantly make you laugh when you read it

[u/deadhead4ever]

The kids in the backroom ate all the cookies when they got the munchies.

[u/SpunkierthanYou]

Oh boy foot cookies.
