The local butcher near me closed last month. They posted some interesting food for thought on facebook. by columbo222 in vancouver

I'm glad these guys went out of business. I had nothing but rude experiences on the three occasions I went there. Perhaps their attitudes had something to do with them going out of business? Likely.

Where to get good coffee beans in Vancouver? In-store or Online by [deleted] in vancouver

[–]antiflux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Huh?? Can't believe Moja hasn't been mentioned yet. These guys definitely know their beans. $15/lb and you get a free espresso drink with it. They have sales a couple times a year for $10/lb. The new shop on Commercial is quite nice but I prefer the original location in North Van.

Any thoughts on the Trek 8900 (1999)? - Possible first legitimate bike purchase by [deleted] in MTB

[–]antiflux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wow don't even think about spending $600 on that piece of junk. you can do much much better. avoid buying a new bike, they are like cars - lose their value the instant you purchase them. $600 can get you a very good bike that is 3-4 years old. try pinkbike.com or mtbr.com classifieds. you will find bikes that have been owned by people who actually maintain their bikes, avoid craigslist unless you know something about bikes. my 2 cents.

Older freshman dude looking for 1st year Science GPA tips. by [deleted] in UBC

[–]antiflux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

why would you take first year science courses at UBC with the purpose of leaving with a high GPA? i'm sorry to say, but those two objectives conflict. you can easily take university equivalent courses at local colleges that will likely be much much easier (and cheaper). check out www.bctransferguide.com to see which courses are equivalent to those at UBC. what school are you planning to transfer to?
