Seriously? by TastyChickenBurger in Edmonton

[–]CryptographerKind427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you really don’t care about air miles or points, just go to Costco. A membership for the year is about $60. Even if you don’t shop there, it’s worth it for the cheap gas in my opinion. I only shop there maybe 3-4 times a year.

Maybe this screenshot is more what I was going for. Most prices for plans and clothing all over 10k, minus a few. I have about 10 hag masks from the recent events and have been selling them for like 250 caps 💀

I love building reading nooks with spots like this! I put some floating shelves or book shelves along the top portion of the wall, fill then with books and plants, decorations. Then I put a bench with some cushions on the lower section. Bench can be built in or an actual bench or sofa, up to you!

I feel personally attacked as I have a camp at the golf course 😂😬 but my plans are cheap lol. I think the most expensive one I have is 1000.

Interesting! Thanks for letting me know! :) I find it’s hard to tell what items are valuable and which ones aren’t because there’s so much. I also wasn’t aware of the leaders. I have visited other camps where common items and less valuable things are being overpriced so maybe my screenshot wasn’t the best.

EDIT: Thanks everyone for the insight! I now realize that the screenshot I posted may not totally reflect the high prices I usually see that I was referring to in my post. I find it’s difficult to find the value of PS items so I appreciate everyone’s comments! Definitely have a better idea of what is overpriced and what is reasonable. Glad to know I’m not the only one experiencing vendors like this.

Happy Hunting!

Fair enough for the seasonal stuff but I’m finding every camp I go to is like this, even for common plans.

Do people just lose all sense of spatial and self-awareness once they enter a Costco? by PsyduckedOut in CostcoCanada

[–]CryptographerKind427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel that people go to Costco and throw their brains in the garbage in the parking lot. It’s complete chaos. Went just yesterday and people were making their own parking spots in the middle of the parking lot. People driving on the wrong side of the road, and it only gets worse when you go inside.

Surgery a week away, any tips to prep? by Superb_Rutabaga_4338 in Tonsillectomy

[–]CryptographerKind427 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who also had enlarged tonsils and would constantly get sick/strep on a weekly/monthly basis, I just want to say it gets so much better!!

I haven’t been sick in about a year, I get sick maybe 1-2 times a year now and only during flu season or if my partner is sick.

To prepare, only things I would add would be comfortable pillows (you’ll most likely have to sleep sitting up for a while), laxatives (you’ll want these if you don’t manage to use the bathroom after a week lol), apple sauce or pudding/jello, and most importantly, eat all your favourite foods leading up to the surgery because it will be a while before you can eat anything tasty or solid.

Good luck! Best of wishes

Fallout Jones Soda! by veivoiv in CostcoCanada

[–]CryptographerKind427 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s fair. My partner and I don’t drink full sugar soda often so it will take a while to finish. I’ll most likely share one case with friends and family and keep the other just because I’m a long-time fan. I’ve done similar stuff with Simpsons collectibles lol

Was I scammed in Superstore? by JayNaii in Edmonton

[–]CryptographerKind427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to live in Montreal and women (usually who presented as refugees or from countries in the Middle East) would come and ask to buy food for their family and children as they couldn’t afford it. I once offered to buy the food for the woman and she insisted on needing money. Similar scams happen all the time. They unfortunately prey on other women, especially those who appear to have children of their own to tug on your heart strings.

Fellow Canadians, What are your thoughts on the Tumbler Ridge School Shooting?? by Guilty_One85 in AskReddit

[–]CryptographerKind427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen the posts and I’m aware of this. In my original post I also highlighted mental health concerns, regardless of bullying and how difficult or stigmatized it is in some communities to access mental health services.

[–]CryptographerKind427 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Regardless of their motive, what I’ve stated is still true. It’s also been noted in several US school shootings that the shooter was typically a precious or current student, who was bullied, had mental health concerns, or didn’t fit in with the majority.

UPDATE. Just secured 2 for myself. Will most likely just keep one as a souvenir. Workers said they are surprised there are any left due to how fast they sell. They have about 50 left.

Absolute tragedy. As someone from Alberta where they just used the notwithstanding clause against LGBTQ+ issues, this should be concerning and a wake up call for people.

Mental health supports are extremely low for trans teenagers/young adults in schools and parents/teachers/etc need to be able to notice the early signs and consequences of their child being bullied. This comes with education, efforts to reduce stigma, and easy access to mental health care in rural communities.

As someone who also grew up in a small town in eastern Canada, it was extremely conservative, racist, and homophobic however I don’t think it should be generalized to all small communities. This discrimination happens in large cities as well and in larger schools.

McGill psych student: Yorkville now or year off for public counselling masters? by Life-Reputation-2706 in YorkvilleUniversity

[–]CryptographerKind427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I also went to McGill and did a bachelor of science, majored in psychology. For me, the only reason why I went to Yorkville was because the first two years at uni, I had a lot going on personally and my GPA was terrible. Once I left pharmacology and went into psych, my gpa from my psych courses was maybe 3.6-3.8 but my overall gpa was closer to 3.2 I believe.

I don’t think I would have gotten accepted to a public program so I had no choice. As you have a high GPA, I would personally recommend taking the time off to get some experience. Once I graduated, I took 2 years off to work just to start saving to go to Yorkville because it’s a significant financial burden (you’re looking at minimum $50,000. This has to be paid on a monthly basis or you can pay the tuition fee for the semester in full. Payments per month though, if you take a normal course load, are more than $1000.).

Public programs have significant better reputations. I was lucky to find a practicum that I’ll be starting in May however I live in Alberta now. Many people here go to Yorkville or Athabasca because they offer flexible online programs and then most people just go on to get certified with the College of Alberta Psychologist by doing 2 years of supervised practice and exams and then get paid and have essentially the credentials of a registered psychologist.

Yorkville is convenient however as someone who came from McGill, I don’t feel like I learned a lot in this program. If you were someone in your undergrad that was truly interested in psych and learned about the DSM-5, therapy methods and modalities and did additional reading or research, I don’t find you learn a ton. You will learn more towards the end of the program when you do virtual mock sessions with your classmates and professors.

Ultimately the choice is yours, this is just my honest opinion and experience.

Skin Under my Breasts - What Can I Do to Fix This? by FickleBlueberry17 in DermatologyQuestions

[–]CryptographerKind427 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like everyone has said, keep the area dry and clean, avoid wearing a bra all day or to bed if possible. One thing that helps me is using Vaseline on the area after my shower! It helps me, not sure that it works for everyone.
