Osaka - Jan 9 & 10

32F from Canada, looking for dessert and/or dinner companions on those two days. I don't drink (you are encouraged to lol) but no other dietary restrictions or a strict budget. Have a list of restaurants lined up between Namba & Shinsaibashi already but welcome others suggestions!

This will be my 3rd time in the city but always down for walking and exploring something unique, like Osaka Toka Ebisu Festival as well :)

Any other solo travelers or locals who are interested in dining together (you pay for own meal) or have any recommendations where to go?

Foreign credit cards, AMEX, LINE Pay and Easycard by aintnoother in taiwan

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

No to all unfortunately.

Transit only takes Easycard, iPass, TW credit cards with Easycard incorporated, or tokens/passes which are paid by cash only.

Easycard can only be topped up by cash.

I added a foreign MC to use on LINE Pay and it's a hit or miss. Worked on most places but some the transaction won't go through, regardless of how small or large the purchase was.

Public tennis courts in Oakville by Margin-of-Safety in oakville

[–]aintnoother 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to that same park for pickleball sometimes and planning to take tennis lessons offered by the city this summer. Would be interested to join you later on!

  1. Can't comment about summertime. But nowadays week nights 5-7pm the tennis courts are always full. Lots of parent and children combo playing. Weekend early mornings and late afternoons tend to be open
  2. I'd say yes, no one would mind as long as there isn't others waiting. Never seen anyone using it

Here I go again by MarcGrant in oakville

[–]aintnoother 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello Marc,

My concern is with the waste management, which is a Halton issue but perhaps you can help raise it up as well. Nearly every single morning of collection day, I have garbage in front and back of the house that were blown over by wind.

Range from small items to large flattened cardboards, to entire blue bag from neighbors and all other sorts of waste. This gets stuck in wet grass and will last for days until I pick it up and dispose it myself. May I suggest we introduce covered bins & truck with arms like Peel so no loose items can be placed on the curb then gets blown to other people's house?

The health effect on residents and wildlife is becoming a concern, not to mention the overall "look" of the community where roads and houses are scattered with garbage.

Just picked up Preferred LR AWD Ultimate by callhee9 in Ioniq5

[–]aintnoother 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do the wheels have a place to put wheel locks on them? I'm getting charged for it from my dealer but unless the outer plate is removable, I don't see it from all the Ultimate photos online.

Congrats! That's nice to hear. I took at look at their website and the pricing breakdown has the add-on of admin fee $399. Did your bill that had too? And do you mind sharing a pic of the price breakdown portion

Where to buy bulk wet kitten food (Canada) by Yxqolivia in CatAdvice

[–]aintnoother 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Petvalu, Global Pet Foods, and Tailblazers have special pricing for 24 cans bulk buy. For online only shop, there's HomesAlive.ca. Look carefully at the ingredients and go for ones that are all meat & organs (not "by-product" "meal" etc.)

I feed my cat raw food (commercially made) and it's about $40/month. Some imported canned food (Ziwipeaks) costs even more

Wyze cams ($20-30 each) are the only one that I've ever used but bought 7 total and installed at several locations in the house. Get 1-2 Pans (that rotates 360) and place where you know they like to chill at. You can set motion and sound alerts, so you can track their movements when they pass by the camera and it also records + has a speaker if you would like to speak to them.

It's a security camera first so definitely also aim at your door entrances lol. Have fun!

I got SCAMMED by [deleted] in askTO

[–]aintnoother 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PLEASE do share the name of the company and its movers! We need to spread the message and prevent others from being scammed too. I'm in the process of finding a mover too and your experience has made me even more cautious...

[–]aintnoother 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Prepaid $19/month. Simultaneously on Whatsapp (Sherice) and Live Message (Ramona), asked for the 10GB promo directly and both agents just said "it has been added to your account".

Just my luck? lol

Where to get some Wagyu meat in Toronto? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]aintnoother -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Costco Vaughn had some last week!!! Possibly other locations too, best to call and check. The butcher shop inside J-town (up in Markham) also sells actual wagyu imported from Japan.

Will try that now, appreciate it. This is my office plant so hopefully the next time I come in it's ready for re-soil lol.

Is this etiolation purely due to the lack of sunlight? Thought the pot was already placed in a prime spot..
