Halloween Safety Tips, Wheels and Deals, Fredericton, Used Car Deals

Are you ready for Halloween?? Hugs and Kisses are!!!

10703962_10152862844341095_7859330971384717046_n
It is almost here! The excitement of the occasion can often makes us forget about safety. Here are some safety tips to help keep everyone safe this year:
Children:
  • Never trick-or-treat alone. Always walk with an adult or a group of friends.
  • Make sure you can be seen. Wear reflective, bright colour costumes, or fasten reflective tape to your costume or bag. Avoid masks that restrict your vision.
  • Only visit well-lit houses.
  • Don’t go into the house for your treats; always wait outside.
  • Don’t eat any treats until an adult has inspected them.
  • Carry a flashlight so you can see where you are going.
  • Don’t criss-cross the street or run out from between parked cars. Always go down one side of the street, cross at the corner, and then go down the other side.
  • Watch for cars pulling out of driveways and backing up.
  • Watch for open flames from jack-o-lanterns and displays.
  • Don’t trample through gardens or bushes. Always use pathways and sidewalks.
Motorists:
  • Halloween means there will be children on the streets. Drivers need to use extra caution. With the excitement of Halloween, children may forget simple pedestrian safety rules.
  • Drive slowly in residential areas where children are more likely to be trick-or-treating. Reduce your speed and stay alert.
  • Slow down and proceed with caution when entering and exiting driveways or backing up.
Homeowners
  • Keep your home and doorway well lit. Clear sidewalks and pathways for safety.
  • Avoid using open flames in any displays.
Have a Safe and Huggable Boo!!!

This year, the event raised $2263 for Oncology. Thank you and hugs to everyone who stopped by to show support and make a donation!!!

12-hours-Poster-2014-2
Youth in Transition Fredericton: http://yitfredericton.ca/
The number and proportion of young Canadians without adequate and secure housing has increased during the last two decade. Despite overall gains which have improved the lives of youth, youth between the ages of 16 and 19 who lack family support remains a group at risk of developing significant problems in their physical and mental health. Additionally, they are at risk of becoming homeless.
Youth In Transition addresses the needs of at-risk or homeless youth by offering supportive living arrangement in conjunction with a program aimed at increasing their self-esteem and independent living skills. Our residence, Chrysalis House, is a place where personal safety and accessibility to employment, education, and health care are met within a nurturing family-like setting. By modelling a stable home setting where each individual is treated with dignity and respect, Youth In Transition is attempting to reach some of New Brunswick’s lost youth.

Shout out to The Man of Deal-Will Venator, “He wasn’t pushy, he was very knowledgeable and patient and he took the time to explain things”-Where there is a Will, there is a way!! Wheels and Deals, Fredericton, Used Car Deals

Experience:I would rate my experience as 10. Will Venator was excellent! He was the perfect Sale person for someone like me. He wasn’t pushy, he was very knowledgeable and patient and he took the time to explain things. I could tell he was sincere and honest with me. I got the impression that your entire staff also possess the same qualities. They always greeted me when I came in the door and made sure that someone was looking after me. I must also add that your office building is beautiful. I certainly was not expecting it to look like that when I walked through the door!
Future Referrals: Yes! Great place to buy a practically brand new quality vehicle without the brand new vehicle price tag!
We drive by Wheels and Deals all the time and had recently been considering buying a new car. We had been debating whether we should buy new or used. My husband had looked at your Website and seen a Toyota Camry that had low miles and a good price. We drove through your lot a couple of times and talked to Will both times; that is when we found the Maxima. I could also say it had a lot to do with word of mouth as well. Will came to Doaktown for our annual parade and I was talking to my friend’s sister, when his float went by. She told me that she had bought her car from Wheels and Deals just a few months earlier and was really impressed with the service and experience that she had. She said that Wheels and Deals is not like your average used car dealership. She didn’t know that we were thinking about buying a car there but her opinion sure meant a lot!
You have a wonderful business full of dedicated hardworking staff. The atmosphere is amazing. You guys are doing something right. Keep up the excellent work!
Thank you Angela for your confidence in Jim Gilbert’s Wheels & Deals- Canada’s Huggable Car Dealer.
Welcome to the Wheels & Deals family!

Shout out to Justin Roy, “I would rate our experience with Justin and the team a definite 10!”, Wheels and Deals, Fredericton, Used Car Deals

Experience:We had a fantastic experience! This is mine and Michael’s second vehicle purchase from Jim Gilbert’s and my third and everything we have received exceptional customer service! I would rate our experience with Justin and the team a definite 10!
Future Referrals: We have already recommended the dealership to several of our family and friends and will continue to do so! We chose wheels and deals based on our previous experience and will definitely be back when we are ready to buy our next vehicle!
Thank you Robin for your confidence in Jim Gilbert’s Wheels & Deals- Canada’s Huggable Car Dealer.

Shout out to Troy Fasquel-The Troy Man Can, “what a caring and humble guy”, Wheels and Deals, Fredericton, Used Car Deals

I must say I am quite enjoying my new ride, thanks to the Big Troy lol… It’s funny how the whole afternoon kind of unfolded really . I was dropping in to see if Troy was working and see what my options were, not necessarily buying a car on that particular day. To my surprise, I came face to face with him in the parking lot, and the rest of the afternoon unfolded quite nicely. There was no confusion and Troy was extremely helpful and sympathetic to my situation. Business was business, and Troy did what he had to do for me to be able to get the vehicle I wanted.
Due to unforeseen circumstances money was an issue, but Troy went above and beyond my expectations, and made it all happen in a matter of an hour.. honestly, I just sat there, and watched the whole thing unfold… and was kind of speechless to be honest !! I didn’t have any intention on being able to afford a Jeep so really, I never even brought it up, and nor did Troy for that matter, until ….. Troy and I were sitting in his office and he was pondering as to what to show me, ” he had the Jeep in mind but didn’t want to tell me about as he thought it had already been sold ” … all of a sudden, in comes the Jeep through the parking lot and Troy jumps off his chair, it was the funniest thing…. and then he’s gone… he say’s ” I’ll be right back, that’s the truck I wanted ..but I thought it was sold… ” Entertainment at it’s finest !! Needless to say I drove out of the parking lot with a new truck that I didn’t even know I was going to be able to afford… Way to Go Big Troy…. I still laugh to this day when I see him run out of the office, what a guy!!
So a I have Troy a 9, and pretty damn near a 10 on this one. What a caring and humble guy he is… I would most would and do recommend anyone to head on to your store… I had a blast, and plan on going back hopefully in the near future to get a bigger truck !!! hats off to you. and big thank you to Troy. Sure glad I met this guy a few years back on our camping and boating adventures… good luck Troy… I see you are doing well on your daily post on FB…
Thank you Lisa for your confidence in Jim Gilbert’s Wheels & Deals- Canada’s Huggable Car Dealer.
