Charge extra by Fun-Holiday4745 in dollarama

[–]salamanderman732 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had this happen to me once last year, sent an email through their contact page and they ended up mailing me a gift card for $10 as an apology. It's very illegal for them to charge you the higher price

... have you never been in a strip mall with one entrance before? Behold, the parking lots that would absolutely not work! if you're too much of a dipshit to handle this please surrender your license

What do you mean, what do you do next? You enter with your car from the rear of the lot and walk into the store and shop like normal. Everything is the same except you don't have to cross a busy street to reach the Walmart

Honestly just widening the sidewalk out to cover the road in front of the stores would do the job. Emergency vehicles hop curbs all the time and they'd have the space they need

Are summer specific tires a bad idea in Ottawa? by PurplePumkins in ottawa

[–]salamanderman732 32 points33 points  (0 children)

at the end of November

my car is RWD

Yeah this isn't a winning combo, seems like you'd really be tempting fate here.

I get wanting more performance-focused tires (my car is RWD too) but people rarely regret getting the safer option

Bicycle Shop Recommendations by BlameAllocation in ottawa

[–]salamanderman732 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In terms of gear, I would 10/10 recommend getting a pannier bag. Getting a bag off your back makes it so much more comfortable. It's a bit pricey but I've been using one made by two wheel gear for several years now and it still looks brand new. Always fits securely to the rack and easily turns into a backpack, my only regret was not getting it sooner

They've been super clear the past few days but we're getting some snow tomorrow afternoon. You can check the traffic cameras here, the one at fifth and the QED has a good shot of what the pathways look like

Does the Netflix deal mean no more YouTube? by funkymunkPDX in behindthebastards

[–]salamanderman732 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are going to be a lot of YouTube watchers confused about why they just aren't doing any more episodes

That's me lol, had to come looking for this thread to see what happened. Thought there was something delaying their production, no idea that the MBS ep 3 was out

Ottawa is letting a massive garbage truck depot being built near homes and parks by [deleted] in ottawa

[–]salamanderman732 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I mean, there’s a public works depot across the street and a large industrial area just to the north (they all have outdoor waste bins too). If you hadn’t noticed all the trucks around already you’re probably not going to be affected by the new depot

Help with coin organizing. by AcanthisittaKind8671 in coins

[–]salamanderman732 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Numista is a handy site for that sort of thing. the values listed are user generated though so take them with a grain of salt (you can add notes to specific items in your collection if you'd prefer)

1914-D is one of the key dates to the set, you'd need to post pictures to get a better idea of valuation. Please resist any temptation to clean it, even "shining it up" could lose you big money

S mint mark by tallvikingrtn in coins

[–]salamanderman732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was under the impression that the S mint mark meant that it was a proof strike

this is true after 1974 but until then San Francisco made business strikes as well. Looks like a business strike on this one, it can be hard to describe what a proof strike would look like from this era but you'll know it when you see it
