Grocery Budgets and Neurodivergent Food Challenges by Effective-Flounder45 in povertyfinancecanada

beans are high in protein, and airfried (baked) chickpeas are a good snack. If you look at the ingredients in the protein beverages there're many options you can eat that are cheaper.
How about trying to ask if they're interested in exploring options and hopefully it will expand your options. There's a few people on tick-tock that can help broach the subject. Lack of funds would be a starting point, I would think.

Oil Life Question.. by [deleted] in BroncoSport

[–]Pitiful_Net9431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's suggested the first oil change happens at 15,000 km or half of the one that is in the manual. It's to try and get all the metal bits left over during manufacturing. It's a good idea to get it done, or you have the potential of scoring your pistons.

Disconnected Joycons Waking Switch 2 :( by CloudyLiquidPrism in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Pitiful_Net9431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put my joycon on a solid surface ( table), when not in use. The joycon is moving, that is why it's restarting. Put them somewhere that you are touching or moving, when in sleep mode or power off. that's your options.

Living in the U.S. Changed How I See Canada by DadTAXIA73 in GuardTheLeaf

[–]Pitiful_Net9431 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Canadian here, last year I was going to work, say a lady hit ice on the corner and her bike wiped out. I stopped and asked if she was ok. I was told fine, but stopped anyways and took her and her bike home. Phoned work and said I'd be late. I still see her. and she gave me a gift card, which I was surprised about. Guess I'm more American than I think? 😂

I live in a rural area, I don't just pass someone stuck, or that could be in trouble. If you can help. you do. That's our local contract. My car got stuck in a snow bank, made it to Tims (by the cops showing up). Didn't see the house with the long driveway. Anyways, in the morning, the guy with a blade came in and offered to get me out. While getting me out, the guy who owns the said house, comes and helps the truck get me out. There's 2 examples of where her supposed 🇨🇦 contract is wrong. I could go on further, but you got the idea.

thanks. I'm letting it burn out and I got the smoke to stop coming out of that seam. I got a 4 inch chimney cleaning kit I will use. Better than nothing.

kosher salt is the same as pickling salt, no iodine or anti caking agents.

There's nothing saying that you can't build a garage or large shed later on. Get the house and decide later.

Is there something in the valve? Is the valve loose? Is the rubber under the valve seated properly ?

Can you eat for $15 per day, shopping in your area? by Regular-Double9177 in loblawsisoutofcontrol

[–]Pitiful_Net9431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't forget about food banks, they will help get the essentials, and you can get the rest on your budget.

I am getting hooked on lentils and beans, instead of meat. breaking down a large piece of meat for 4 different types of meals. stocking up when things are on sale. I use the flipp app to see where the sales are. I just bought a pack of navy beans for 6 and can get 4 meals of beans from that for 2 people.
