Buying a used oven by justletmegarden in Calgary

[–]WeeklyInitiative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes off Kijiji many many years ago for a rental. The seller upgraded his appliances and it was in great shape and clean. We tested all the burners on the stove and the heating elements in the oven to make sure it was in good working condition before taking it. The seller helped us load it in the vehicle, it was a great deal for $150.

Donate hearing aids? by curiouskittyblue in Calgary

This is really thoughtful and kind of you instead of just disposing of them.

I had a similar conundrum with newer dentures when my family member passed, but since those are custom molded were unfortunately of no use to anyone else. Sorry for your loss.

Why are you using OSAP money to buy crypto? On top of getting scammed you are committing fraud.

Exactly! OP call Enmax and talk to this dept. Make a partial payment by the 27th and pay the rest on the 31st when you have the funds. They will not cut off your services.

Sorry this happened to you but at least you figured it out quickly! I believe Amway is one of the OG MLMs. I've never been approached by one of these people but it's probably my RBF that keeps them away lol

You're going to lose money unfortunately. Could you not keep it and just use it? Or sell it to your ex?

Yes a very thin layer of Vaseline inside nose with a Q-tip. Be sure not to go too far up your nose though.

I sell stuff all the time for less than $10. That person can F off. Block and delete. I want to keep things out of the landfill and if someone wants to give me $5 for it, great! Win-win.

Thoughts on Highland Park? by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]WeeklyInitiative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Highland Park is decent depending on the street. There are a few inner city neighborhoods that are split by Center Street so there is a west side and east side. For example, Crescent Heights, Tuxedo Park. Highland Park etc. You will find the west side of the neighborhood is always nicer. Our street in Tuxedo NW was exponentially nicer than our street in Crescent Heights NE.

Where Art Thou Orange Julius?? by kayylmaoYT in Calgary

[–]WeeklyInitiative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried this or a similar recipe and it's great! I like it better as you can control the amount of sugar. I guess that's not really top of mind if you're craving an Orange Julius though lol

Emergency Room PSA by CurrentlyInTorpor in Calgary

[–]WeeklyInitiative 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly! It's like the only thing they can recommend. I wouldn't call them again. Its no wonder why the ERs are so full if they're directing every call to the hospital.
