The Great Debit Dilemma has been resolved. 

 

Finally the Purolator guy realized that we do not open at 8:30am and decided to come by and deliver later in the afternoon.  Regardless the debit machine is up and functional.  

 

See you guys soon! 

]]>http://www.apgaming.net/news.php?ID=124The Great Debit Dilemma2011-10-29 00:45:48Well it was nice while it lasted. Unfortunately our Debit machine decided it was no longer adequate to be in the presence of such great gaming legends as the AP Members. New machine should be here Tuesday! ]]>http://www.apgaming.net/news.php?ID=123Regular Update.2011-10-28 23:14:22
Hello AP Gamers!
 
We are happy to announce that we have all 28 terminals running in the store! We also received our Debit machine today and can now accept plastic money! Please keep in mind that we can only accept Debit on the machine so no Credit Cards please.
 
For those that have not been following the AP FaceBook page, We are currently offering 5 FREE Hours of time with the re-activation of a old AP account or the purchase of time on a current AP account!
 
We encourage you to come by and try out the new location (address is in the "about" page) and hope to see you soon!

Hello AP Gamers,

 We are finally open, it was a long and bumpy road but we are finally open.  The address is 13590 Fort Road NW. It is in the same parking lot as Finnigans Pub in between the daycare and the barbershop.  We are still waiting on signage so all you will see is a for lease sign for signage.  

All existing members will be credited an extra 3 months on the membership.  Same rules will apply as the old AP.  There is a slight change in store hours everything will be the same but Sunday and Monday we will close at 11pm.

Once again, we apologize for the delay, and we hope to see you soon!

Thank You,

Absolute Power

Sad news,...

I'm sorry to announce that I will not be renewing the lease for Absolute Power at the end of the month. This will be the last week of normal operations at the existing location. I've been having immense personal issues over the last eight months and decided that I have to leave the business behind in order to try and make things a little better in my life. I hope you understand.

There is an interested party looking at getting a new space for AP and taking care of all our wonderful customers,  but I'm not sure how long that might take. Hopefully it's only a short hip-cough and things will be up and running again soon. As it is, this coming Saturday, June 25th, will  be our last day for a while. It would be awesome if you could make your way down for some good-byes and play a few rounds of your favourite games over the next few days. I'll be dutifully at the counter both Friday and Saturday night.

I'd like to take a moment and thank all of you for the last five years. I'd also like you all to know that I've thoroughly enjoyed being your humble shop-keep and I'm glad to have befriended so many of you fantastic people over these years.

All the best to you and yours and I truly hope we can play_TOGETHER again on another day soon.

If you are a member of our Facebook group, you've already heard about this,... (I'm hinting that you should join our group).

To celebrate our fifth birthday, we're offering FREE memberships and renewals for the next five weeks! All you have to do is purchase a 10 hour pack for our already low price of $35.00 including GST. Make sure you let your friends know that you should all play_TOGETHER. Please note that new members will NOT get a free T-Shirt with this deal but we are selling them for $15.00.

An awesome deal for our awesome customers. Thanks so much for the last five years!

Just so you all know, we will be open Christmas Eve until 6:00PM (or whenever Krug decides to kick you all out). We'll be closed Christmas Day and re-open at noon on Boxing Day

Speaking of Boxing day,... this year we're going to have a super-special running. How does Unlimited Time for $10 grab you? That's $10 off. First come; first served. Offer good for members only!

Also, for your convenience, we're selling spiffy gift cards in 5, 10 and 20 hour values. Come by and pick one up to stuff in someone's sock!

Merry, Merry
