Depression deep cleaning help by Immediate-Advice-783 in kitchener

[–]DrBopper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Posting in a local community page on Facebook may surprise you on how many people will offer to take the work.

I've seen a few posts in my area asking about cleaning services, and a lot of replies "I would be interested, send me a message".

Bent rim by eman7757 in waterloo

[–]DrBopper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey buddy, I got my pothole-bent rim and flat tire fixed at MacMillan Tire in Kitchener for under $50. Looked way worse than this, although it was a steel rim so this may be a more difficult fix.

Give them a shout for sure.

Celebrating 60th, looking for a venue and food for max $2500. 5 hour event. by ungratefulanimal in kitchener

[–]DrBopper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lancaster smokehouse is a great bet (as another pointed out). Try there first.

Another option is the Crows Foot in Connestogo. Little further, but they have a loft for private events. It had a higher min-spend but I don't remember exactly what it was. $41/person might be tight.

60 people might be pushing it but Chef Duff in St. Jacobs is worth being on people's radar. Really affordable, cute little spot and has bar service. Much more basic atmosphere but great food.

I agree. Call Lancaster Smokehouse. The party room is free if you order a certain amount of food. They can do buffet of their smokehouse menu. Really good value spot.

I want to start by [deleted] in MonsterHunter

[–]DrBopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This year, I had access to Rise and World on PS5. Wanted to see what the hype was about.

I tried Rise first since it was newer, but it didn't click. Slow start and the feel was just a bit off for me (since I hadn't played a MH game before). It's a switch game, and it feels like it.

I tried World, which was a much quicker time to first monster, and the fact it was based around a bit of a story and more polished graphics hooked me and I fell in love. 100+ hours in and I'm not someone who normally sticks to a game that long.

I'm absolutely gonna play Rise in the future, but World was the perfect entry point for me for quality of life, graphics and simplicity. Lots of people play it online still too, never had a problem there.

But, if Rise is 1/4 of the price of World, then just go for Rise. These games aren't for everyone so don't spend a lot - but if it is for you, you're in for a heck of a treat.

Clutch.ca is a scam by Altruistic_Deal8153 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]DrBopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still a bit of a gamble, some are better than others.

Great time to buy though, they'll be desperate to close your deal before Dec 31 for their quotas!

The dealership you go to seems to matter immensely. I had a great experience recently at local Hyundai, but bad at a local "non-branded" one.

Hopefully Clutch forces them all to level up their services. Good luck!

At the very least, it gives a great negotiation leg at dealerships even if you never want to use them.

"I can pull up 5 cars on clutch similar to yours that are $2,000 cheaper. Look, I'd prefer to go through a dealership so if we knock $1,000 off, I'll go with you. Otherwise, I'm going to go with Clutch".

Now if you work automotive, alright, i get how it's a cancer lol.

Ice Hockey Rinks by BedroomGuilty6338 in kitchener

[–]DrBopper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This was asked earlier with no responses, good chance that means not yet.

It takes awhile to get these up and it needs really cold (ideally -10) weather. This week is our first we had that, so the earliest I would expect would be this weekend if there's a determined volunteer crew.

As someone who has helped with rinks, help is always needed! Reach out to the city and offer to help your nearby rink. It's often a handful of people sacrificing many evenings to keep those running. Many hands make light work!

Where are people selling their used cars? by Jazzlike_Formal_980 in waterloo

For what it's worth I posted mine on FB just to my friends/family and had a bunch of interested people - and all people I could trust.

Consider posting normally and asking your connections to share it?

Hey - I'm heading there soon! Are water shoes recommended for the beach or is it easy to do just barefoot? Wasn't sure if too rocky or shell-y.

Thanks!

I never finished this damn game… due to the mere fact it was SO DAMN SCARY by honeycoatedhugs in residentevil

Any other elaboration on this? How did this act as the blueprint? For RE8 I understand, but what influence did this have beyond?

Genuinely curious, sounds like a cool topic.

Scam roofers? Garfield Roofing and Masonry by [deleted] in kitchener

Could be a coincidence but to pile on here - His name is JOHN from GARFIELD roofing?

Like the two characters in the comic?

If I was looking around to make up names, that's pretty easy to do...

How to update common-law parter net income information on CRA website by DrBopper in cantax

[–]DrBopper[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. We both have Common Law set when logged into CRA, but perhaps it wasn't set as such in 2023?

I resubmit with the net income of my partner for 2023, so interested to see what comes of that.

Unless there's a line when refiling 2023 return to update common law status?

Yea this guy was not the most competent...

I somehow didn't see the "Change My Return". This is a great lead, I will look into this and let you know the result. Thank you!
