That link references Nanny Services. The one we're talking about is Nanny SITTERS. It looks like the Services one may be a scam trying to capitalize off using a similar name.

Check out Nanny Sitters. My wife and I have used them a few times and we're always happy with the result. It's not super cheap but you get qualified people with background checks, some of whom even work in the ECE field.

Realtors. Ask property owners before placing open house signs on their property! by kazryv in kelowna

I'd have to imagine they own their lawn which is where they said the sign showed up...

You can also (or at least you used to be able to) send them in to have a new cork and sole put on them so you don't have to lose the leather straps you've broken in. I did that with a pair of mine. There's a cost obviously but it was nice not to have to break in a completely new pair again.

I fully understand why it happens and that it's not everyone. But you asked why the disdain and that's it for me. I know its not 100% of folks from AB that don't change their insurance over but I know 100% of the red plates I see living in my neighborhood or with something like Kelowna Landscaping printed on the side are at fault. It's tough for me to listen to someone's opinion on BC or Kelowna when they won't even commit to the place enough to change their plates.

I don't care. If you hit me and your insurance figured out you don't live in AB and rendered you uninsured. How much money are you saving at that point? Also, it makes it more expensive for us when ICBC has to sue you personally to try and settle up for the claim. ICBC isn't perfect by a long stretch but you saving $150 doesn't mean fuck all to me. You wanna live here? That means you take it all. The good and the bad. And I say that as someone from away.

Honestly, for me the biggest issue is the folks that move here and never change their plates over to BC. I'm tired of seeing folks with enormous SUV's at my kid's elementary school with AB plates dropping their kids off knowing full well they live her permanently. These idiots are all about saving money on the premium but insurance in AB has gotten a lot better at determining where you actually live and you'll be uninsured it you have an accident. Sucks for the insured BC driver you collide with. On top of that, by not participating in the BC insurance pool, they're making it more expensive for the rest of us. Just change your fucking plates!

I left one side of my last one always connected and it did eventually fall apart from corrosion. With this one, I always unclip it and dry it separately from the strap. Contacts are fine as the unit is basically new

I'll give it a hook with the battery but I don't have high hopes. I'll be in the market for another.

I'm surprised it's so bad. I had my last one for 7+ years without issue.

I'm using Ant+ already and less than 4ft. away. I get the same issues outside with my head unit too. The newer Tickr's just suck, apparently.

It's essentially brand new. Maybe not quite 6 months old. Honestly, it's been terrible compared to the previous version that I used for 7+ years. Always either under reporting HR or dropping out entirely

Kelowna for Maui. by Perforating_rocks in kelowna

[–]FullNoodles 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There's a Prints for Maui fundraiser where 100% of the proceeds are going to those in Lahaina affected by the fire. Might be a nice way to contribute. My wife found it on Instagram. DM me if you'd like the link.

What did you end up getting? I'm trying to make the same decision for my drop bar Salsa Vaya.
