Necro bump (even though this is a sticky thread)

Both of the left side LED taillights on my X3 died, a very common issue due to manufacturing defect.

Dealer will only repair it by replacing the entire taillight ($515 for outside + $360 for the inside + labour).

All it takes to fix is to replace the LED driver - $5 each and 15 minutes of labor.

Foglight also got cracked by a rock. Dealer quoted $400 to replace, bought a perfect condition OEM from ebay for $130 and replaced in about 15 seconds.

Saved $1200+

Yar, we are switching from Scotia (1.95% if you lock your cash in for a year) to EQ next week.

$2.99 happy meals on Wednesdays. Take your girlfriend and get two each. Dinner for two under $12 is a win.

CIBC & Simplii are running 2.75% & 2.8% on their savings accounts right now. It's just a "promo" rate for new money that's been running since about October (I think) but they seem to do this once or twice per year. What's the appeal of EQ Bank?
