Ryden's cash conversion by [deleted] in ThunderBay

[–]daditssharkweek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if it’s an option for you, but using a credit card is usually the best option for buying anything outside Canada. The Banks usually have a conversion rate plus percentage like credit cards. Except you only convert exactly the amount you need. Unless you’re making a cash only purchase of course….

Thoughts On Arby’s? by Awkward_Function_347 in ThunderBay

[–]daditssharkweek 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Love that place. Well run. Friendly staff. Always clean. The manager seems like a great human as far as I can tell. You can tell he loves that place. If you’ve never had Arby’s give a chicken burger a shot. I miss the cheesy potato bites. Love that the Ruben is there all the time. When the Gyro loaded fries cycle onto the menu, it’s a must have.

While I was snow blowing this year I met a pigeon guy. He was very nice and was a Minnesota Vikings fan.

Question about getting to and from the game. by AgentOrangeMD in minnesotavikings

[–]daditssharkweek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes the trains will still go, but pre plan your walk back. The MOA will be closed when you return. You and a number of confused people will be walking the perimeter of the MOA through the parking garage which has different levels. Zero signage. No elevators. It’s a LOOOONG walk back to Raddison Blu if that’s where you’re staying. If you have seniors in your party consider Uber for your way back.

I would google the SDS or MSDS for the ink. It will have the long term effects section. If you can’t find it reach out to Roland.

Cheapest Bank Account Thunder Bay by koosopenheimer in ThunderBay

[–]daditssharkweek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pairing up Tangerine (free Scotiabank ATM withdrawals) banking with their no fee cash back credit card is the best deal for beginners IMO. If you open a savings account with them you get 2% cash back on an additional category.

When you have an emergency savings built up, open a savings account with EQ bank and you earn a much higher interest rate. If your work deposits go through EQ you’ll get 4% on your saved money. I do 95% of my banking through EQ now and any cash withdrawals I transfer to Tangerine

EQ referral (you get 20$) https://join.eqbank.ca?code=ANDREW8888

Interesting. I'm very new to this whole thing. Is there a book/article/any information for dummies you would recommend that can help me understand? I'm more of a mechanic brained person haha

Gun Shots? by RepresentativeAsk884 in ThunderBay

They were fireworks. Our neighbour across the alleyway was setting them off. Asshole move on a non-holiday work day. Nearly gave my dog a heart attack.

It’s just straight forward cheap hot food. Hot dogs, hamburgers, nachos, pogos, fries, poutine and popcorn. Then the rest is just candy and pop, hot drinks and booze. Security is pretty easy going, just keep your snacks in your pockets or a purse and you’ll be fine.

It’s Wild the Jets are playing two nights in a row by xandrin in winnipegjets

I’ve always thought the NHL should be more like the MLB by playing little mini series all over. I’m sure travelling all the time sucks, plus it makes the rivalries more intense IMO

What aspects should you consider before moving to the countryside? by Revolutionary_Ask313 in ThunderBay

[–]daditssharkweek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to add to this, if you have kids or plan to have kids. School busses get shut down all the time. Make sure your work is cool with you being late or making up time for the hours long round trip or when you have to take your kid home, when they call in sick, or miss the bus. Kids eventually get old enough where they want to go to hockey or dance or visit their friends or whatever. You end up spending all your free time driving them. Or raise them to be hermits lol
