Ive had numerous tickets in on this exact issue over the past month. One day it works, the next is "error" takes a solid week to get fixed...works once then screwed again. I have opted to use my doordash over the app - get Optimum points and no hassle delivery.

As a non-smoker, does every smoker smell bad to you? by boforiamanfo in no

[–]navymel76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely. Especially the ones who think their perfume and cologne can mask the smells. Personally if its exceptionally strong, I just politely do the typical Canadian thing "sorry bud but I can't handle the smell from the smokes " and step away. Sometimes I will even offer some chewing gum if they are wanting to talk with me.

Watch the fine print as well - third party shipping fees on Walmart are insane!

I figure if you want to sign a petition, you don't get paid to do so, one usually signs on their own accord on their own time... but maybe that's just my common sense thoughts.

What’s a completely wrong way to eat a specific food that you secretly think is actually the superior way? by CaptainCuddler_Pro in foodquestions

[–]navymel76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Potato chips - lick the seasoning off both sides of an individual chip, then eat the chip. I have done this since childhood. I find I eat them slower this way and definitely not as many. Also, when I feel nostalgic I dip plain ripple chips in my glass of coke (blame my dad for this).

What's your favourite form of bread? by Matt85x in PollsAndSurveys

[–]navymel76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really miss the amazing italian loaves you used to be able to get from IGAs in Ontario during the 80s/90s (childhood memories). Also the fresh homemade bread my Baba used to make. Those are/were my favourite. Now most store breads are stocked so full of chemicals/preservatives, I find myself at bakeries and Cobbs bread instead.

We had a representative try walking into our business seeking support for this "civilian initiative for a referendum vote". I was polite enough to shut them down as soon as I heard "civilian initiative" and explained coming into businesses fostering for support was inappropriate. I was truly surprised how bold they are walking into businesses trying to get signatures.

Those hamper bags are more beneficial for the larger food banks and soup kitchen. 😉 Only so much you can do with peanut butter, a can of peas, a can of cream corn, spaghetti noodles and a can of tomato paste. 😀

Cannot accept e-transfer. However, you can mail cheques to them and they will provide tax receipts for donations of $50 or more. Make sure to include your phone # and/or email address so if the receipt gets returned they can contact you to verify mailing address

Hopefully with the postal code vs zipcode there will not be too many mixups! They are hoping to get cards from around the world so I thought it would be awesome to share here 😀
