| Comments |
Canadian Tire's "money" — never legal tender, technically a loyalty coupon — was printed to banknote-grade security specifications, which is why it attracted serious collector attention rather than being dismissed as ephemera. BA International and Canadian Bank Note Company both held production contracts across different series and denominations, making precise attribution a genuine challenge for completists.
The 1987–1989 dating window reflects the period when the program underwent redesign; earlier issues are generally more worn from heavy redemption use, while late-series examples survive in better condition simply because the coupon's cultural novelty had faded and fewer were spent.
