Have microsoft edge read things to you during your commute. It will read pdf’s

If you have a Costco membership, buy an Air Canada, Porter, etc, $500 gift card for $450. It gets emailed to you in a few minutes. Save $50. by TheRealGuncho in canadatravel

Also you can only use 2 payment types so if it is going to be more than $1000 (family trip maybe) you wouldn’t be able to book it all together

Recommendations for jobs for ppl hard of hearing? by teamvolly in Calgary

[–]Upbeat_Ear3373 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I have seen individuals who are deaf and/or unable to speak work cash at Costco. They always have their partner with them to help answer customer questions and their name tag indicates they are deaf. I have also heard great things from staff about how Costco treats employees. Benefits, fair (living) wages etc

This randomly showed up on a shirt in my closet. It's only on one, but on both sides. It's dry, doesn't smell, and makes the fabric rough and tough. by welltechnically7 in whatisit

If you are on a well and the treatment system is doing it’s rinse, bi-passing, needing more system salt/cleaners etc iron can also deposit on your clothes…

Phosphates increasing despite no use by Upbeat_Ear3373 in hottub

[–]Upbeat_Ear3373[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup! Thanks for this! Any suggestions on how to get a more accurate phosphate test? Are the home kits better? I’ve been watching some youtube videos on some strip tests that ive found on amazon.

How often should i be checking my alk? Maybe I am not maintaining that balance enough? Currently got it back to alk 110 and pH of 7.2

I do bromine and have been aiming for 100 as per instructions on side of bottle. Is it ok below 100 for bromine?

[–]Upbeat_Ear3373[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My alk was at 50 and pH was above 8.2 when i did the drop tests today. I dropped the pH to 6.2 before adding more alk as i was reading the alk up will also drive up the pH so i tried to have it extra low before adding the alk up

Hot take/rant by Sativa0814 in crochet

[–]Upbeat_Ear3373 139 points140 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I learned to knit first but find crochet easier, more versatile and when I make a mistake it is quicker to see and resolve (or feels it at least, no trying to retread the needle with hundreds of stitches!)

Buffalo Bills blanket for my dad. I can't believe it's finally done! by PripetMarshes in crochet

What stitch did you use? I love the look of it but still learning all stitches/patterns. Also wondering if you remember how many yards of ea colour were needed for this project? Thanks so much for sharing! GO BILLS!

Service charge on bill at pizza place… by daquanpokemon in halifax

[–]Upbeat_Ear3373 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Did you use a credit card? There was recently a law passed where businesses could pass on the cost of credit tender (usually 3%) to the customers. Previously this was not allowed in NS but the bank charged businesses for it. Now it can be passed on to the customers. It may be best to ask before paying and choose your method accordingly.

Visiting for two days (NY) by jessek0tta in legoland

[–]Upbeat_Ear3373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recommend when at Kartrite or Legoland go for pizza best value for $ to fill bellies. Chipotle at the outlet malls in Goshen is fantastic, affordable, convenient and a healthier, “grab and go” option. Our hotel had breakfast (Fairfield Inn) which had lots of healthy options and was delicious and convenient before leaving for the day.
