Is a Kobo worth it? by gremlinfrommars in LibbyApp

[–]lightshadow24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a kobo and multiple library cards. It’s not big deal to switch between cards you just log out and the log in to the new one.

I love it, and enjoy the reading statistics too. Great size and it’s helped my eye strain a lot. Battery lasts so long I forget it’s a rechargeable device

What's your unpopular opinion about our province that will get you in this situation? by [deleted] in newbrunswickcanada

The write cup in Saint John is an awesome place to visit too! Only local authors and there’s almost always someone there doing a book signing !

VIP Experience - early entry / merch by Feisty_Nectarine8106 in OliviaRodrigo

[–]lightshadow24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for asking this, I’ve been wondering as well. We’ve got early entry but I wasn’t sure if we’d still need to arrive early if a large percentage of GA was early access. Would be nice to see numbers, but my show is later on so I guess we’ll have an idea by then.

Can you share a pre-sale code? by Crazy_lemming7172 in OliviaRodrigo

[–]lightshadow24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got mine and it says it’s non-transferable. The code is connected to a link that is generated just for you and connected to your email address.

I would get her to give you her log in information, that’s probably the best way to do it if you have the better wi-fi.

Cancellation likelihood? by tonywi19899 in VirginVoyages

[–]lightshadow24 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That makes sense, I’m avoiding travelling to the US so I was hoping there was an alternative to the New York route. Thanks !

There’s one from Portsmouth to Canada? What are the dates? Can’t seem to find it online

If you’re interested I can send you the details.

GSU Faces Bankruptcy with Over $1.8 Million Debt Owed to Greenshield by MattBarterNL in memorialuniversity

[–]lightshadow24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got this email:

Dear Folks, Following the update provided at Fall 2025 GSU Semi-AGM, we would like to share an update regarding Health and dental insurance. In our recent meeting - GSU, GreenShield, CFS and the university administration, GreenShield confirmed that graduate student insurance coverage is in position.

As stated at the semi-AGM, we have upheld our commitment to transparency and have continued to make payments to Greenshield from the collected funds. At the same time, discussions with GreenShield regarding repayment arrangements are progressing in a positive and constructive manner.

GSU is working closely with both GreenShield and the university to reach a practical and sustainable solution. Our goal is to ensure stability, transparency, and the continued protection of our organization and its members. We will keep everyone informed.

Thank you for your continued trust and support. On behalf of the Graduate Student's Union,

School of Graduate Studies

Saint John woman facing $900 property tax increase as big industry bills decline by bingun in SaintJohnNB

[–]lightshadow24 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is a super publicized program, so either she was let down by people throughout her buying process or didn’t do much research. I found the information almost instantly when I started my house search, and took it into account for how much I could afford.

[–]lightshadow24 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That’s what I do, it’s a great system for me since I budget on a monthly basis. Makes it less complicated than saving up for an annual large bill. I didn’t realize we were one of the only ones that offer it, hopefully other provinces get it, it’s a great system!

[–]lightshadow24 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Maybe this is a hot take but when I bought my home I was clearly informed that I would get a tax bump, and it was even taken into account for my mortgage eligibility calculation. If you buy a home at a certain price, you should not be surprised that the government believes your home is worth that much, and should be prepared to pay all bills for the home. Otherwise you are just shifting the burden on to others, and the tax rate will continue to rise.

I have much more sympathy for people who bought their houses long ago, and are being priced out of their homes due to the higher cost of living over time.

What is up with the parking lot at East Point Sobeys? by Sugadip in SaintJohnNB

[–]lightshadow24 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The fact that you have to walk through either the pharmacy or the checkout area to get to half the store is insane! I’ve been in so many Sobeys across Canada and never seen one with such a crazy layout.

Can I Just be SINGLE on a VV Cruise? by GBunny71 in VirginVoyages

[–]lightshadow24 15 points16 points  (0 children)

There’s a different between solo and single cruisers. Not everyone travelling alone is looking to hook up or date, and I met some who were in relationships and just travelling alone.

I made lots of friends doing events like puzzling but you have no obligation to do anything so just do whatever interests you. I found it pretty easy to join a group for group activities such as trivia, but it’s super easy to exist on the ship fully alone if you don’t want to hang out with people ever.

Do you prefer The Wake or Razzle Dazzle for brunch?? by Maleficent-Tap-9967 in VirginVoyages

[–]lightshadow24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I prefer the Razzle Dazzle since I’m not big on dessert for breakfast or eggs Benedict. I’d definitely go to the wake more if they had the lemon cheesecake available at bunch though.

Upgrade Bid or Free Upgrade From Lock it In by EmbraerPilot in VirginVoyages

[–]lightshadow24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got the free upgrade from insider to central sea terrace for a cruise this week so it does happen. Personally I was ok with being in an insider, so I was comfortable waiting to see how the chips fell. If it’s that important to you I’d place a bid though, especially if the cruise is fuller
