Sakuraya (Above Kim's Mart) on Broadway. They expanded their store. Prices are generally better than Fujiya. Now that Fujiya stopped selling their fish cakes I don't go there as often as I used to.

didn't know if the website was legit or not for pickup.

Anyone know where I can find a C14 panel mount to NEMA 5-15R outlet exactly like this locally? Prefer to get a single cable rather than a C14 to C13 panel mount and then run a C14 to NEMA 5-15R cable on the other end.

If you know anyone with a LinHaw account: They're $3 and lots of stock. But they only deal with businesses.

Yeah, we have an account with LinHaw at work, but I need one with a mount since the panel I'm using has a cutout already for a C14 mount.

Seems like most of these are generally terminals on the other end, but I don't really want to splice anything for this situation.



I'll probably just end up grabbing these from Lee's and call it a day. Haven't found anything else that's a single cable/adapter.

I go to Superstore. Check expiration date. If it has expired, you cannot get it filled anywhere. If that's the case, go Home Depot or some other place that does the tank exchange. Make sure to get brand new tank. Hell, I remember I wanted a spare tank once. I went to the Eco Centre on Still Creek and got one for free then went to exchange it for new one.

Yah suggest going to a tank exchange, the price on an exchange is usually the same or cheaper than a refill in my experience.

Way faster and more convenient too.

Like I eluded to, tank exchange only if the one you have is expired. Otherwise, it is less expensive to refill than to exchange. Just my two bits.

Yah I live in Richmond but I use the Super Save at 5 and Westminster… it’s like $24 to fill a big tank last time I was there, which is quite a bit cheaper than exchange

My gripe/experience with Super save in Richmond is that no matter how full/empty a tank is it seems like they always charge the same price, I don't believe they actually calculate the weight and amount of propane filled, but just assume an empty tank. I may be mistaken or maybe it's just the Richmond location.

A fill at super save was like $25 or $30? Vs a tank exchange from what I remember is like $28 to $34? Just a few bucks more and way more locations that do an exchange vs a refill.

^a lot of them are like that. we get our 33lb forklift tank filled and it's always the same price. that being said, it's gone up a lot in the last few years. used to cost us about $29, now its like $40 or so.

Does anyone know where I can buy some 3M adhesion promoter packs?

Looking to buy only several to redo the adhesive on some side skirts.

https://www.napacanada.com/en/p/MMM0...pressionRank=5

Napa sells a box of 25 for $71, but that's way too much for what I need since I'll only really need maybe 3 max for each side.

Amazon sells them in packages of five, but was hoping to do it tomorrow or on Friday while it's nice and warm out and these will arrive on Sunday.

Do you need 1 or do you need quantity?
