Lol. As long as you look older, just print out photo of any child that you can find in Google search.

Or just type in 'grandchild' into Google image search on your phone, hide the address bar and hope they don't scroll to reveal it again lol

I'm mid 30's....wonder if I could take a pic with a random baby and say I had a child when I was 16 and my kid did the same.

32 and a grandad....boom!

Wow, day to avoid at the store as there will be long lines as everyone tries to pay with all the last change they have and search for their glasses to count them.

Different info in same place. From same link to clarify the asterisk:

"Discount valid instore only for 10% off when you show a photo of your grandchild and 15% off when you sign up for R Club. Discounts not combinable. Offer valid Sunday, September 10th only."

Imo, easy to argue if needed.

Unlike Target, TRU actually has decent deals for Canadians. Their selection is good too. I'd rather they stay afloat, would be sad to see them go.

You show them a photo of your grandchildren and they only give you 15% off! Yikes

Alternatively, you can show them a photo of a random child and still get same discount.

Oh no. That is terrible. So many companies nowadays either are considering or have filed for bankruptcy. Not a good sign of the times.

Biologically, a 30-year old can be a grandparent, right?

Too bad for East Asians. LCBO uses a photo of a female who looks younger than her age of 25.

Hahaha
That's a good idea, plus since I don't have a grandchild yet
