Last week, when the entire city was out of salt, I was on my way home from work early in the morning (work midnight) After stopping at a few stores and enquiring by phone at Canadian Tire as to salt availability and coming up empty handed, I had tried one last store near my house, which also was out! However, by chance, a young man in the store making a purchase had offered his 40 kg bag of salt to me which he happened to keep in the back of his pick up to help keep steady on the roads. My house was very close by so, it had been dropped off in no time. He only wanted $5. for it but I gave him 10. * and shared some with my neighbour.
