Walking the CBC picket line, and waiting for the snow to fly. You won't find any MP3's to download to your iPOD here. But you might come away with a craving for some raw caribou.

The Price is Right: Nunavut edition.

Take a look at the grocery items I've posted here.

Then take a guess at what it would cost to ring those through the till at the Northern, and post your TOTAL guestimate here.

(If your postal code starts with X0C ... please sit this one out and let us have some fun with the southerners!)

Do it by Wednesday...and the person whose guess is closest to the actual total will get a FABULOUS prize (I don't know what it is yet, but it will be FABULOUS!) via Canada Post, sometime after the lockout is over. (If this is going to work, you're going to have to post your contact info with your total guess.

You'll also know why those of us on the picket line here have to chuckle a little when we hear people in the south complaining about lockout pay.

Have fun! (And my apologies to those who visited my site while I was putting this up...and before I got this intro in. I can't seem to download so many photos into one single blog...so this was the best I could do. Sluggish Northern internet...)

Hi!!
You are brilliant...that is such a good idea! (I won't vote because I am excluded due to postal code-status)
I am often entertained by your blogs, keep it up!

Mwahahhahaha...(my evil overlord laugh.)
As master of the game I am deleting entries as they come along, so that the playing field is more level for people who enter later in the game. But don't worry, I'm recording your entries. Of course, it's getting a bit confusing because they're all coming from anonymous.
But we'll get it sorted, I'm sure.

Trish...I've been thinking about you. Are you in NS these days? I'd love to send you an email...but how to get your address?
Lisa...I didn't delete your comment because, well, how could a girl ever delete a comment that starts with "You're brilliant!" (Heh heh heh)
