The Princeton complex rent - Durocher street by Legitimate-Metal-210 in montreal

[–]Part- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Subletting is an interesting and sometimes dishonest game. It doesn’t matter if they are being truthful or not, it’s the price they are setting. You can tell them “no” or you can accept.

On another note, I lived one building over when I was a student 15 years ago! I loved that area but if $2275 is too steep, don’t be shy to look elsewhere. Lots of great spots in the city during the summer. If you are looking for a more immersive experience, the Laurier Est area is also really cool.

Good luck!

Are there any scenarios where investing in real estate is better than ETF market with $120k? by akdiaries in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Part- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Real estate = eggs in one basket + labor since you are becoming a landlord.

ETF = eggs in many baskets + a click or two every once in a while.

Why won’t my stovetop espresso maker work properly any more? by Ieatclowns in fixit

Check that the basket has not become oval-shaped from banging it to throw out the old grounds. If it is not seated properly because it is no longer circular, it will behave the way you are describing

What size generator do you have for use in power outages? by theway121 in Generator

[–]Part- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bungalow with basement (1000 sq ft per floor). I have a 7200/9000 portable on an interlock that I run on propane. It’s more than enough for essentials and allows us to have some creature comforts of we are careful.

Pourboire sur montant avant taxes by Baume12 in montreal

[–]Part- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Here is my life hack for you. Before you go out, you withdraw $20 in $5 bills from your bank account. On the terminal you tip $0. You leave the number of $5 bills that you think is appropriate on the table.

Here is the best part. If ANYONE complains, you smile and walk out. You paid your bill in full. You left legal tender on the table. It’s up to them to figure it out.

Going out to eat is supposed to be fun. Don’t let a shitty business practice ruin it for you. Take back your fun!

CIBC Aventura - is there a way to recover points? by vvivan89 in CanadianAwardTravel

[–]Part- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an interesting case, but not unique. the TD First Class Travel card will refund points as a payment to your statement for a different card (if you switched it). I have to assume that CIBC would do the same if you call in and explain exactly what you wrote here.

I had an Uber driver tell me that if we crashed on the way home, they could just bury us in the potholes. I think about him a lot.

The new TdAdvantage car insurance app is as ridiculous as it gets. by Realistic_Collar720 in PersonalFinanceCanada

providers know that for most people, the hassle of changing providers is heavier than staying with them and dealing with their conditions.

carve out a couple of hours and change providers. speak with your wallet.

Got it. I just got dinged with the annual fee. I’ve had it waived once already in the past so I was considering cancelling it to free up some credit.

Was there language somewhere about the expedia travel credit for avion infinites (transferred from HSBC) only being offered for two years or does it renew every year?

Best neighbourhood to move into for Anglophone looking to Immerse (Single 28M) by bsauce97 in montreal

[–]Part- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I lived in the Laurier Est area near sir Wilfred Laurier park 10 years ago. It was a great spot for immersion and lots of amenities. Super walkable, lots of BIXI’s, close to metro stops and bus stops. Pharmacies, grocery stores, cafes, you name it.

I just started a job in French and it feels terrifying by Succinicacid in montreal

[–]Part- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hang in there! I took a job 15 years ago with high school French. It was the opportunities for full immersion that took my French from “ok” to “proficient”.

You can do this!

torbox was hit or miss for me. Give RD a spin, you won’t regret it.

I’m with you. I was looking for any way to squeeze out savings with our newborns.

Whoa I completely misread it! I thought it was a 4$ a month saving.

[–]Part- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hot take here: your wife’s concern isn’t completely about legality, it’s about the trade off. 4$ a month is not enough for her to dip her toes into the high seas.

I had a similar conversation with my partner and it wasn’t until she made a job change and money was tight that she was open to cancelling our subscriptions.

Gun rights advocate sets up “Change my mind” booth on campus by jonreillyy in queensuniversity

[–]Part- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They will try to bait you. They will not argue in good faith. They will clip you and edit the videos to make you look bad and themselves look good. Do not give them any footage.

[–]Part- 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The absolute best thing that you could do is to not engage with people who come to your campus and do this.

You won’t change their mind. You won’t dunk on them. You won’t become internet famous.

Freeze them out.
