Looks interesting Sami, but more importantly, if you are moving around, will you still be The Deal Finder ?

Looks interesting Sami, but more importantly, if you are moving around, will you still be The Deal Finder ?

I was thinking the same...

CONGRATULATIONS Sami!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Please let us know how you feel, and explain to us something more about that program ( it´s better to read it from you than in the own web )

Well first of all, I think I won't be able to be the deal finder anymore as I won't touch any computer for 9 month... So I'll be away from smurf world for 9 months, the only part remaining will be pictures of my collection and the DSK under my arm . So for the program, it is 11 person from Canada,( 1 from British Colombia or Yukon, 2 from plains, north-east territories or Nunavut, 4 from Ontario, 3 from Quebec city and 1 person from Atlantic) This is reprensative of the population of Canada.I will do volonteer work in 2 English part of Canada( each time 3 months) and 1 time in a French part of Canada.(3 months too) So the goal of the program is to learn from other people, others culture, other way of life,etc. I will surely come back change from this experience and this is what makes it incredible.

Congratulations Sami
It sounds like a great opportunity
We won't see you for 9 months

You better pass on your ebay secrets to someone before you go
But I'm sure there will only truly be 1 Sami the dealfinder

Congratulations Sami

Dyar

(so who will be the deal finder now....?)

Excellent news Sami, it sounds very exciting and an excellent opportunity for you to learn many new things.

Goodluck with it all.

+++SECRET MESSAGE FOR OLDER SMURFERS+++

Quick, whilst the youngster is gone, grab all the bargains.


Oh, sorry Sami, I didn't realise you weren't leaving just yet.

I just tought about it, and I will be able to go at Charity place, fleamarket and antique shop so maybe i'll come back with some goodies and variations typical from alberta, british Colombia,etc And by the way, I'm sure I could find internet coffee place so I'll be able to catch some deal on ebay.

that sounds like a great opportunity, Sam....I am excited for you

I'm leaving in 18 days, I am so excited, I must prepare my luggage, so much stuff to do, only 5 days at work left yeeppppppeeee

This sounds to me to be the chance of a lifetime Sami Something like this is very special. I hope you learn a lot & can give a lot too. Maybe you can gain a few new smurf fans

yes I will try to 'CONVERT' my group to smurfs!!!

Not long to go now Sam, no wonder you are getting excited!

yes I will try to 'CONVERT' my group to smurfs!!!

Be careful mind, that will mean less smurfs for you!

Enjoy your time, Sami!!! Hope you will find lots of smurfs in Alberta and B.C.

I'm leaving in 4 days, I'm so excited, I saved place in my luggage for smurfs !!! Anyway, cant wait to leave for vancouver. First time also that I'm taking the plane.I'm scared!!

I hope you have lots of fun with the kids and find some smurfs also

I bet you will love the flight I have flown a few times now, and I am always scared before the flight but once I am in the plane, I enjoy it...

Have fun Sam, I am sure it is going to be a wonderful experience.

Of course look for smurfs, try and not break any bones and if you are going to get any more piercings, don't go too mad!

Take care and have fun.
