I would be more sold on Dyson if they didn't insist on making their vacuums with that crappy tictac plastic. Our plugin vacuum is a Miele and the build quality is so much better.
So cause I'm a dumbass and didn't look it up first. I brought the V15 down to the store at PC and they don't have a repair department.
They instead gave me a number to call Dyson.
Lo and behold, they don't have the parts to fix my vacuum, so my two choices was either wait for them to be in stock with no ETA, or exchange for a new one.
I decided on the exchange option which would take two weeks. Again, they no longer have the V15 Detect on stock so they'll upgrade me to something better.
At this point I'm not sure if I'm getting a V15 Absolute or a Gen5 Detect. But my wife wants her vacuum.
This exact scenario just happened to me except for 2 substitutions:
- Shark not Dyson
- I had to cut the power cord on my Shark on video for them before they'd send me the replacement model
How did my shark break? Brush head? Canister? Filter?
No, just a single rivet bolt separated on the wand, so I couldn't maneuver it properly
I murdered a vacuum for a fucking rivet bolt.
Fuck all these sucky companies. I'm just going to find my parent's old push / pull / drag 'n bag vacuum and confidentially use it without worry.
Literally this is what they have tucked away somewhere (even though they use their Dyson canister)

This is why Costco exists.

I know we have some accountants here so I had a quick question.
I earned $31,000 of taxable income last year. What would be a healthy RRSP contribution amount to avoid paying taxes this year?
This is just a freelance gig I did. I still have a main job with payroll deductions which I usually get a refund from. I don't want to pay anything this year, so looking to contribute to RRSPs to zero-out what I would owe to CRA.

Just plug in your numbers into one of many free tax software's and play around with the RRSP amount to see what return or lack of return you'd get.

I think ideally you’ll have to contribute $31K to your RRSP to zero out your self-employment income as your employment income deductions are unlikely to cover any of your additional self-employed taxes. Unless, you have employment expenses to deduct through your job. Try to max out every dollar of expenses related to your self-employment income as much as possible.
If it is your first year of freelancing, keep in mind that GST registration for self-employed gross revenue over $30k+ is required as well.
LOL I kinda like not being called a "bat eater" as a racial slur anymore and maybe now that actual bat eaters have been identified we shouldn't perpetuate it either?
Put a new end on the cord and replace the rivet yourself. It's only a few bucks worth of stuff at Princess Auto.
I'll probably do that. I've never worked on appliances before (because of their disposability) but I'll make an exception here because the vacuum itself isn't actually broken.
That said, my new Shark (Stratos) came in and it's a waaaay better machine. I wouldn't pay $500 for it, but the design, features and even the build is far better than what it replaced.

I hope it's not a Gene 'Benoit' Hackman scenario
