Giant Tiger is your Canada Day Headquarters with Giveaway Canada #CanadaProud

gt-canada

Canada Day is the official long weekend kick off to summer. Oh and Canada’s Birthday of course! With the kids out of school and many taking their summer holidays it is a fabulous time for a barbecue.

All Canadians seem to love to celebrate Canada Day and they do so in the funnest ways possible. We sport our red and white outfits, hang our festive decor , raise our flags and host BBQs. As I mentioned school is out and the days are longer, so this is the weekend to have fun and let loose.

My family loves to BBQ and does so often. My teen boys really love to eat (as most teens seem to do), everything! So burgers are usually the meal of choice for us. Invite over some friends and you have a party!

In preparation for our feast I was able to get everything I needed at Giant Tiger to celebrate and have a pre-weekend BBQ.  As you can see burgers (handmade and pressed) were on the menu. My kids are pretty basic when it comes to their taste, bacon, cheese, and ketchup is what they love. Myself I enjoy pickles and mustard as well on mine.

Add in some red decor and sweet treats and you are all set. With Canada Day around the corner Giant Tiger has all you could need and more to make this a fun celebration! A one stop shop for all your Canada Day deals!

Add in a little red, some good food and fun company and you have all you really need. My kids love getting in on the festivities! I plan on spending many days out on the patio and the plastic tableware and festive decor will be used all summer long.

I love how there is something for everyone when shopping there and it is all so affordable. Having two ever growing teen boys I am always looking to save a buck where and when I can.

  2. I am not sure how we will be celebrating this year but usually a bbq is involved.
    I would buy curtain panels at Giant Tiger.

  3. The best way is up early on Canada Day, hit the links, finish on 18 by planting my Canadian Flag near the green, head home and flash up the BBQ to feed the family BBQ Maple Syrup Ribs and tater salad, and in the evening walk down to the local park for the annual Lions Canada Day Fireworks display….ah don't tell our neighbours to the south they will stop their 4th to come and join us in paradise.

  4. nicolthepickle says
