Fives Squared
These were... interesting as to how I crossed paths with these Fives Squared.
I received a $25 gift card to MEC from my Secret Santa at work. I've never been in one of these stores, let alone what they sell.
I went with my g/f and we were in there for hours struggling as to what to use this gift card for cause there's nothing really in there that I do (there's no snowboarding nor rollerblading stuff in there!). I ended up finding a new iron to wax my board with,cause the old one I had kept burning me.
During this process one of the staff came up to us and flatly stated that the store's closing in 10 minutes and that we pretty much need to get out. Well, this rubbed my g/f the wrong way big time and asked for a manager.
It was a Sunday and she got the acting-manager. She talked to her while the staff member that wanted us out was giggling with a co-worker about how upset she got. Well, this was stupidly within ear-shot on their part which was also noticed.
After her discussion with the regular manger the next day, we ended up with more gift cards to the store. Great, what can I struggle to find now.
I thought about getting a **** load of wax for my board, but then noticed they carried some Oakley shades. I ended up picking up these for only $58.62! Gloss black frame with a chrome O, and black lenses.
I customized these by getting a pair of Ice blue iridium polarized lenses too. These too are currently in rotation...
