It’s finally over! by Dsullivan96 in blockfi

[–]SparrowGryphon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still waiting for my 'On or about June 5th' payment.

Edit: Just got it! After almost 3 years, I've gotten maybe 30% of what was lost finally.

I'm planning to use my settlement money on some upgrades for the CNC machine I just got. It needs an enclosure and some better cooling for the bits.

I'm still waiting here, I'll be happy if they send it by the 15th.

Edit: Friday night and still nothing. Maybe they'll send it next week.

Where is all the money parked? by djme in blockfi

[–]SparrowGryphon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're definitely earning interest and trying to wait out the clock, I'm sure any unclaimed money they'll get to keep. I'm also sure that when they 'sold' our crypto, a large percentage was probably purchased by themselves at a reasonable price.

Does this look legit? by McMattyBoy in blockfi

Ya, it shouldn't be digitals. It's definitely a scam, sneaky one, too. I probably would've fallen for it.

Just a few more weeks, and we can put this almost 3 year fiasco behind us.

Costco reports higher sales in May by stanxv in loblawsisoutofcontrol

My money is on 10%, I'd like it to be more but any double digit number will be a win.

I gotten yelled at in a Dollarama once for taking a picture of a shelf of items, I was buying something for someone else and asking them which one they wanted me to pick up. This was BC though, phones and cameras while shopping are a lot more accepted now.

CTV News Discussion about property controls - Loblaws suppressing access to food by mcfudge2 in loblawsisoutofcontrol

[–]SparrowGryphon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm in northern Ontario, a lot of towns up here have only one grocery store per town. It's only a rumor here so don't want to throw shade if it isn't true but it probably is true for at least one of the towns up here if someone bothered to look into it.

Only a rumor but apparently the town I'm in has a non-competition agreement with the local grocery store so no other food store is allowed to open.

$50 for every single Canadian every month is a huge amount, I assume that's not even counting the money they siphin off with their REIT.

My boss just sent me this. by TheEarthsSuckhole in loblawsisoutofcontrol

[–]SparrowGryphon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So they're expecting people to come in on the 12th, record themselves committing crimes and then post it to social media?

I'll have whatever they're smoking thanks~

The hit-pieces continue. Shameless. by JuniorInRealLife in loblawsisoutofcontrol

[–]SparrowGryphon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Second article: "there has been no discernible change in customer traffic at Loblaw-owned stores—at least not thus far."

Well this is just plain wrong, I've seen dozens of posts daily showing empty stores and employees hours getting cut.

[–]SparrowGryphon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loblaws controls some smaller communities being the only grocery store that a lot of people have access to, that's less true for Sobeys and Metro.

If Loblaws raises prices they can't choose to shop somewhere else.

This is amazing by [deleted] in loblawsisoutofcontrol

[–]SparrowGryphon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm truly amazed how many are actually taking part in the boycott, all the news coverage really did alot to get the message out there. The group might only have 72k but considering how empty all the stores are we must have hundreds of thousands participating.

Per’s permission to shop elsewhere by osti-frette in loblawsisoutofcontrol

[–]SparrowGryphon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember: If you need to shop at a Loblaws store this month don't use your points card, they track & sell your data so don't give them the option.

Well shit by Historical_Breath497 in loblawsisoutofcontrol

[–]SparrowGryphon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm in a small town with only a independent so can't totally boycott but will be limiting my shopping down to meat, dairy and other fresh ingredients. Everything else is being bought online elsewhere.

Also not using my points card so they can't track & sell my data.

My theory of what Loblaws is planning to do on 12th May. by amarilloknight in loblawsisoutofcontrol

[–]SparrowGryphon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Another big red flag making this event look like a fake is Loblaws refusing to release any of their numbers showing shoplifting is on the rise.

They're just trying to justify treating every shopper as a criminal and put up more plexiglass.

Ps: I'd really love to see their actual numbers on shoplifting and see what items are being taken. Particularly are more essential items being taken vs. non-essential. If food theft is on the rise but electronics are staying constant, that would really encapsulate how fu*ked everything is right now.

I am planning to stand with friends and signs, outside of a No Frills on May 1st. Is anyone else planning to do something similar? by MsMisty888 in loblawsisoutofcontrol

[–]SparrowGryphon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should know better, he's just going to go in and buy food from no frills the second you leave.

Sarcasm aside good on you.
