New Canadian "Kiosk" Stamps

I suspect some of the BC members can provide the exact dates, but the London drugs and Bentall opened in November 2017 and I have strips from late December. There is a new Kiosk in a Shoppers drugmart in downtown Toronto opened 2 November 2017 as number 105929. There were 2 additional Toronto kiosks that were supposed to open in Nov 2017. One at the TD Centre has been cancelled. Another machine also at a Shoppers Drugmart in downtown Toronto is delayed to this coming June (tentatively). So there are 7 active kiosks at this time. Hope this helps.

Is there other location in Montreal for those kiosk?. There one on Saint-Caterine at a Pharmaprix. Are there still open?

The only Kiosk in Montreal is the one at the Pharmaprix on St Catherines St. I have not been to it lately, but it should still be open as I have not heard about any kiosk location being closed.

OK, Thank You cdn-booklet. I don't thing there some kiosk in Quebec city?

I wonder if there will be forum members willing to provide strips of the new value "Kiosk" stamps: $1.27, $1.90 & $2.65.

If you haven't seen the new kiosk strips, here is a set obtained from Bentall on Monday.

cdn-booklets,

Is there any difference, aside from the new price of course, in these "P" stamps and the previous "P" ones?

The Permanent stamps from what I can tell are the same as they were before. The change is just the printing of the rate. The only reason to collect strips of 4 and include the Permanent is if you want strips for all values showing all the rates. Your printed sales slip from the kiosk whould show the new price of the P stamp.

Does anyone know whether January 14 was the first day these new rates were available or were the machines converted earlier?

Is there anyone in the Vancouver area willing to trade the new denominations from the three Vancouver locations for the two Toronto and one Richmond Hill location?

I finally went to a Kiosk location .

Hated the 50 mile trip there in pouring rain.

Hated my new GPS which took me past the location as I hadn't selected the avoid "Toll Roads" option.

Loved getting the stamps !!!

Loved the ride home in the pouring rain !!!



In addition to the obvious printing shifts, the first number "1" of the 14 digit code is missing from all stamps.

I also kept a set of five stamp strips of the 4 different values for my collection.

Nice purchase!

Looks like the machine is in serious need of adjustment.

I wonder if there will be forum members willing to provide strips of the new value "Kiosk" stamps: $1.30, $1.94 & $2.71.

I will, if anyone still needs them some time in April when I return home and buy for myself.

I thought it may be worth revisiting this topic. Now that some may be allowed to travel as te COVID restrictios ease, are there members who would be willing to pick up a few sets and share/trade/sell to members? (I am lookig for 3 complete sets of the new ones)
