Why Own a Generator? Power outages are regular occurrences throughout the country, especially during colder months. Power goes out, most commonly, due to snow storms or high winds, but outages can happen at any time throughout the year. A dual fuel generator will help you have peace of mind during power outages. I have been provided with the generator shown above as compensation for writing my review. A $50 Canadian Tire gift card will be given away on this blog for Canadian residents - ...

Philips Avance Collection Multicooker Review (w/ Canada Only Giveaway $250 ARV)
