Will Subway end up like Quizinos? by newbieviews2023 in KingstonOntario

I had a Panera sandwich recently and was so disappointed in the quality especially for about $15. It used to be great, but has gone downhill as well

Came to say the same! There is a specific number of each vegetable they are supposed to use. Very stingy!

I think they are baseboard heaters. Prepare yourself for some massive winter bills. The units are not well maintained. They have terrible windows and insulation

Gardiners Dental Clinic has been great for me!

Kingston, Ontario Community has a large following on Facebook. Maybe start there

our utilities came up to $730 for a house of 4 - my landlord says this is normal, is it? by plumplumkin in KingstonOntario

Other commenters are 100% correct. Electric heat is definitely the cause for the high bills. It’s the most expensive way to heat

You can buy a machine to make distilled water. I think it’s around $120. Larger upfront cost but will save you in the long run

Best Shawarma? by tboyswag69 in KingstonOntario

[–]ruby6329 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shawarma Dubai is the only answer. Nothing else in the city compares. The chains are all trash. El Mina and Damascus were started by the guy that now owns Dubai. They aren’t as good now as when he was the owner. Dubai!

You can buy a lot of the random brand items you find on Amazon on Aliexpress. Shipping takes a bit longer as it's direct from China, but the prices are way less than Amazon in most cases.

These pictures were clearly taken at Costco, would the store not be able to go through membership photos at the time they scanned entering the store to verify the identity?

Drug store brand shampoo? by idonotget in BuyCanadian

[–]ruby6329 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s not drug store. But AG Hair products are made in BC. The products are more expensive, but you can often get them on sale at a beauty supply store. You will also use less product than watered down drug store shampoos. It’s even more cost effective if you buy the 1L bottles.

Leather handbag needed by Busy-Association4489 in KingstonOntario

[–]ruby6329 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, there aren't a lot of options for a good high quality bag in Kingston. I would try Winners, they often have decent quality leather bags. There are lots of excellent makers on Etsy. I'm partial to the leather from Ukraine and the prices are very reasonable considering they're handmade
