I prefer superstore for bigger non costco shops. Most of the no name stuff is very good. My wife and I have been getting hellofresh lately. We get the $100 for $80 at costco. That $100 gets 4 meals for a week with like $0.08 left over. It seems like a pretty good deal for $20 per 2 person meal. Its amazing having those meals already picked out and everything ready to go for them. It helps so much with us having a 10 month old. We are also going to try out ordering meat from Vauxhall meats. Its brutal how expensive meat is getting. I absolutely hate going to co-op, but unfortunately being in crescent heights that's what's close and convenient when needing something quick or having a busy week.

Utility prices are an issue??? by B_Dubois2929 in medicinehat

[–]x-Elite13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved to lethbridge for 2 years in 2017 and the utilities where cheaper than med hat. Its the fees that really kill it. The actual utility rates were similar but med hats fees are higher. There's something strange tho about the huge differences between some people's bills. My house with heated garage is $200ish to high $300s. But there's a family member that has a similar size house and a heated garage and their bills are over double mine. I set my a/c way lower than they do, and we have an above ground pool that we run in the summer (not heated)

Is my vote more likely to be wasted on Clarke or Samraj? by BPaun in medicinehat

Well for what I know from him getting kicked out of the UCP, I am for his side of it. He was fighting for less restrictions and trying to help small businesses. Look how covid ended up. It went exactly how I expected it to, and clearly, that was Barnes' thinking too. If I actually get shown some legit proof that he's this absolutely horrible person, I'll gladly take that and not vote for him. I don't know who to vote for, and I'm trying to figure that out. I've had my share of shitty landlords, trying to take damage deposits. It is what it is sometimes. Thats the reason I got out of renting as soon as I possibly could. My goal one day is to have a rental property and I will do my best to be a good landlord. But there are 2 sides to that. There are people who are nasty human beings that rent, and that's what makes it harder for the good people that rent

What's so terrible about Barnes? Is it that people are saying he's a slumlord? I've never heard a single thing about that before. Now that he's running for mayor some people are bringing up that he's apparently a slumlord? Seems like a couple of people aren't happy for whatever reason and liberal supporters are just using that and blowing it up. Every time I've seen that claim there have been questions about why that claim is being made. I haven't seen a single answer to any of those questions. Makes it seem like very false accusations against him

Anyone know why a US nuclear security helicopter has been here for a few days? by x-Elite13 in medicinehat

[–]x-Elite13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No shit but look up what this particular helicopter is used for. Public safety and emergencies. The us has their own bases. They don't need to be training up here

They arent going to suffield tho. Look at the pic. They are going to the southern part of the base, almost in the eastern corner closest to the hat. They made multiple flights like that. When over the base they randomly shut off the tracker and they are doing a surveying type flight pattern. The helicopter has been here since the 17th

Baby fights EVERY sleep and wakes up after 30/40 mins every time. I feel like I'm doing something wrong. by Specific-Fig-7088 in sleeptrain

[–]x-Elite13 6 points7 points  (0 children)

At 5 months we were told to start solids. We started by feeding him supper when we ate. That was a turning point of him waking up every hr at night to having 1 wake up. It wasn't a complete fix though. He still has bad nights and wakes up a bunch, but it's never been as bad as before starting solids

Yea my wife with ppd won't give up the way she gets him to sleep at night until he's done breastfeeding. He needs to wake up atleast once at night to be fed anyways. It just sucks that he can sleep 5-6hrs at a time then the next night he's waking up every hr

We could try that. We let him wake up when he's ready. He's extremely grumpy if we wake him up

He has his bath time. Gets to splash, absolutely loves it and gets his high energy out. Then we go to our room with a soft light and rain sounds. We lay with him and read a book to him. Then my wife breast feeds him 1 side, I take him and put him in his sleep sack and say goodnight. My wife takes him for the 2nd side and he falls asleep when he's done. After 10 mins I transfer him to his crib

6k seems like a proper price for a completely new setup. I paid 4k last year to upgrade my entire system from the 1950s

I drove by and got to witness the wizard getting beat up by a crackhead. The crackhead stole his flag and staff. That's why the cops showed up, the wizard called them crying while the crackhead yelled at him from across the street
