Saturday Snap – That Moment When You See Your Car on Regina Rant & Rave

When I met a friend for lunch at Tim Horton’s before work on Thursday, the last thing I expected to see on social media later was a pic of my car in the parking lot! Luckily it wasn’t a rant about my bad parking job or the excess of window stickers I have on my […]
