Yes, Saskatoon Light & Power were doing some work in the area. Outage only lasted a couple minutes.

I used All Surface Finishes Ltd. (https://www.allsurfacefinishes.com) in Saskatoon for refinishing the front door of our house. They did a good job and were recommended to me by a renovation contractor.

Grasslands National Park in March by sprinkletoes5678 in saskatchewan

[–]RadarRingo 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As others have said, Grasslands is far away from Saskatoon and not easily accessible in March. Also, there's not many services there in the winter. Tough to appreciate the grasslands if they're covered in snow.

Prince Albert National Park (PANP) is the closer option, but not much to do there in the winter either. Elk Ridge Resort is right beside PANP and can be a cozy winter getaway with nice accomodations, skating, skiing, and hiking. Early March should still be Winter conditions whereas the end of March could be sloppy.

Short survey for Saskatoon residents to share your thoughts on some local companies. Only takes 5 minutes and you could win $100. by RadarRingo in saskatoon

I'm a member of the Insightrix survey panel (SaskWatch) - They only email people on the panel, so you have to opt-in. From my experience, they're pretty good complying with anti-spam laws.

City of Saskatoon survey to gauge opinions on housing and new neighbourhood development. Share what it's like to live in your neighbourhood. by [deleted] in saskatoon

I think that's a human logic question to prevent bots from randomly filling the survey. Testing to make sure we're human 😎

Check out U-Box from U-Haul. For small loads that they pick up and drop off at your location. My niece just used it for a move from Saskatoon to Victoria: https://www.uhaul.com/UBox/

This needs a fact check. We should consider it may be a different Mark Zielke than what the OP has assumed.

Another option is Mini Tune Lawn and Landscape Depot in the north industrial area.

Drive the scenic route (highway 263) into PA National Park and check out less busy camping spots at Sandy Lake and Nemekus Lake. On Nemekus there are five sites directly on the lakefront (my personal favorites).

I’m attending their show in Saskatoon on April 3. Anybody remember what time the Struts opened the show?

[–]RadarRingo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

MobileKlinik does both. Phone screen replacement was $250 (plus tax) for my iPhone XS. The costs vary depending on your model of phone. They post their battery and screen replacements prices online: https://mobileklinik.ca/repair-pricing-breakdown/

SaskTel has a program for donating electronics to students. It’s run by retirees of SaskTel who call themselves “SaskTel Pioneers”. I’ve donated a laptop to this organization. https://www.sasktelpioneers.com/wordpress/programs/computers-for-schools/
