Права потребителя.
Мы в последнее время замечаем, что всё чаще попадаются случаи когда купленная, казалось бы новая техника быстро выходит из строя. Происходит это потому, что не качественная техника. А за частую покупая телевизор мы сталкиваемся с фирмами название которых мы никогда и не слышали. А некоторые не добросовестные продавцы переделывают старую технику и продают её как новую. Но люди зачастую не знают о своих правах. Например то, что если вы приобрели новую модель телевизора и она тут же выходит из строя вы имеете право его поменять на другой. Или вообще вернуть товар в магазин с компенсацией полной стоимости телевизора. То есть вы можете вернуть свои деньги. Об этих правах покупатели к сожалению знают не все. Только не забудьте, что это необходимо сделать до конца гарантийного срока на товар. Покупатель имеет право направить официальную жалобу экономическому агенту. И в течение 14 дней ваш вопрос разрешится в вашу пользу. Не забывайте о своих правах потребители.
La ville-surprise!
De retour dans la ville basse, nous avons apprécié un rapide déjeuner en famille au Spag & tini Le Resto! Ils ont offert un menu enfant impressionnant et des activités de coloriage amusantes, et les enfants ont reçu un jouet gratuit avec leur repas. La nourriture était délicieuse aussi. Avec le ventre plein, nous nous sentions tous un peu fatigués alors nous avons attrapé le prochain Le Bus Rouge pour faire un tour à arrêts multiples dans la ville. Avec tous les festivals d'été à l'époque, le conducteur a vraiment dû naviguer habilement dans le trafic et improviser sur les fermetures de routes.
Notre temps à Québec
Nous avons passé nos 2 premières nuits à l'Hôtel Plaza Québec, à quelques minutes en voiture à l'ouest du Vieux-Québec. C'était un hôtel familial parfaitement situé près des activités centrées sur les enfants comme l'aquarium. Il abritait une piscine intérieure plutôt accueillante que nous n'avons malheureusement jamais pu utiliser - nous nous amusions trop dans la ville.
Des personnages costumés parcouraient l'hôtel pour divertir les enfants. Nous sommes tombés sur Spiderman, Elsa, le capitaine Jack Sparrow et Arial. Nos enfants étaient vraiment ravis.Bien que notre chambre d'hôtel n'incluait pas le petit déjeuner, nous avons mangé au restaurant sur place un matin. Le service était assez terne (peut-être que c'est l'influence française), et la nourriture juste passable, donc le lendemain matin, nous avons mangé ailleurs. Le Wi-Fi fonctionnait bien et ils offraient un parking pratique sur place gratuitement. De plus, le lit est sorti du mur, ce qui était assez impressionnant pour moi et les enfants. :)
