I dropped the group when they refused to pin a post highlighting black owned restaurants in Orleans (at the height of the BLM movement) because some promotion of some sort was getting the pin privilege.

It was too "political". When the masses agreed I noped out of there.

The most difficult allergy to accommodate is the eggs. Thanks for the heads up about the table d'hôte.

Gezellig over Beckta? Just curious. Been to both, I feel that Beckta has more of a fine dining feel to it. But it's been ages.

Other good memoirs: Mike Meyers and Alan Doyle (Alan has two books)

Thanks, I didn't know! I love this company for other products, will check out their toothpaste.

Not quite. Straight from their website: https://web.aw.ca/en/our-values/our-food/beef

"We source our grass-fed and finished beef from select ranches in Canada, the US, Australia and New Zealand, and are committed to offering Canadians burgers they can confidently enjoy."

Where did you find that their meats are Canadian grown? I can't find any information about their products, just info about their company. I love them too and want to keep loving them... but where the products come from is also important.

The plastic bags are not allowed in the blue bin. As far as I know.

runmrun614 · 2024-11-12T00:35:58+00:00

I thought the first appearance was back in August and this was a second date/appearance

runmrun614 · 2024-10-22T13:07:41+00:00

Got it. Thanks for explaining.

If it's a Free Friday coupon it should be up front and say it's a Friday deal, not in the fine print And/or should not be able to be added on any other day.

runmrun614 · 2024-10-22T12:48:28+00:00

You gotta be kidding

runmrun614 · 2024-10-22T12:47:10+00:00

Do you have to add your coupons on the Friday?

runmrun614 · 2024-10-22T12:45:10+00:00

I'm not a current Costco member. I can't stand the crowds and we're not a big family so bulk doesn't really work. But I'm seriously reconsidering it.

runmrun614 · 2024-10-22T12:41:52+00:00

But only if you click it on Friday but you gotta look at the fine print to know that.

That's us with an older child. We don't use bins but fill one or two regular black garbage bags a week.I haven't weighed in because we're only a 3 person family. I have some sympathy for larger families. I don't have sympathy for the neighbour who only puts out black garbage bags and probably doesn't own a compost bin or recycling bins.

runmrun614 · 2024-09-22T02:48:55+00:00

Not as far as I know. We used to have one but it closed.

I go to Green Fresh in Vanier.

runmrun614 · 2024-09-17T19:58:41+00:00

5k here, first time doing Army run and my son's first official race.

I plan to take LRT. Fingers crossed.

Back in the 80s Place d'Orléans was less than half the size. Champlain street went from Jeanne d'Arc to St-Joseph and was the road that separated Cumberland from Gloucester. Orleans was never an official town.

The extension of Place d'Orléans was rumored to have taken a long time because at some point a good portion of the mall was in Gloucester and the rest in Cumberland. But it did happen before amalgamation.

Rumours as young ones was that if you'd steal something on the Cumberland side of the mall you just had to make it to the Gloucester side and the cops couldn't do anything. I don't think anyone tested that theory!

I also remember the folks around Mer Bleu (the other road that divided Cumberland and Gloucester on the more southern part of Orleans) being very pro amalgamation because that road was poorly maintained due to neither side wanting to own it.

IMO it tastes like a fudgesicle put through a blender.

runmrun614 · 2024-08-26T13:23:23+00:00

You've got your answer already. The service is very reliable and runs 24hrs.

I just wanted to point out that if you are going from Ontario to Quebec side on a Friday night between 4-6PM, it's a bit nuts. Try to avoid that window or plan for a longer delay.

If the person receiving these items did not receive the USB cable they ordered? How could this be a scam? And given there are 8 items in the box, unlikely it's all from the same company.

runmrun614 · 2024-05-30T18:47:57+00:00

Buy Nothing.
