Announcing Bear River Mercantiles 2009 'Hard Times' Holiday Incentive Disount!

For the 2009 season, due to tough economic times, Bear River Mercantile is offering a ‘Hard Times’ Hoilday Incentive. We will discount select rental equipment (includes canoes, kayaks, cabins & carts) by 10% during the 2009 summer season…BUT…there is a catch!! To qualify for this incentive your rental must be paid with good ‘ole fashioned’ CASH.

Credit card companies cost us all way too much. Plus they are getting too advanced and making it harder for the few of us who are still without telephone or cell capabilities to do business. Therefore Bear River Mercantile is hoping to do business using more reliable and cheaper methods such as CASH. Therefore this incentive is for CASH customers only. If you choose to pay your booking by Credit Card then the full price of the rentals (without the discount) will be due.

Rental Equipment Qualifying for the 'Hard Times' Discount

Only canoe, kayak, cart and cabin rentals outside of a pre-packaged deal qualify for this 2009 'Hard Times' Holiday Incentive Discount. This discount will be honoured for both pre-reserved and drop-in rentals as long as it qualities and you are paying with cash.

As the prices in our Paddlers, Front Country and Family Vacation Packages have already been discounted within the package price, they are not eligible for further price reduction using this Holiday Incentive. Regardless, we still prefer cash payments for these packages as per the payment procedures specified with our regular rentals.

Restaurant and store purchases do not qualify. 

Payment Procedures for the ‘Hard Times’ Incentive;

There are only two methods of paying your rental to be eligible for this discount:

1. Pay your invoice in full by personal cheque or cashiers cheque (made on a viable Canadian or U.S. Bank) or money order, to be received by Bear River Mercantile 30 days prior to your booking date. This gives us time to clear your cheque.
2. Pay at the counter in paper cash (*we do not have debit card capabilities*), or travelers cheque when you arrive.

 Reservation Deposit Procedures for the ‘Hard Times’ Incentive;

 There are only two deposit methods available for securing your reservation:

1. Send your reservation deposit amount by personal cheque or cashiers cheque (made on a viable Canadian or U.S. Bank) or money order at the time of your booking. Bookings will not be guaranteed until such items clear but we will hold your booking during the clearing process.
2. We will still accept VISA or MasterCard Credit Card information to secure your booking, but we will not charge the card, we will only hold the number as security. When you arrive you must pay the rental in full as per our payment procedures. If you do not show up for your booking or cancel your booking (as per our Cancellation & Refund Policy) we reserve all rights to charge the card at that time, all reservation deposit amounts owing.

 Reservation Deposit Amounts Required;

 Cancellation & Refund Policy:

For this incentive, all deposits will be refunded in full, if and only if, your cancellation and refund request is made 30 days prior to your arrival date. This gives us time to try and re-book your spots. If cancellation is made after the 30 day limit, or if you do not show for your rental, then all deposit amounts will be charged, if you gave your credit card info to secure the booking, and kept as non-refundable and non-transferable.

Store Front -- sorry to have it buried down here but I am still trying to make this new web editor work with an old website.
