The sticker might be on the side when you open the lower storage drawer
Turns out that the day before the stove stopped working, the circuit breaker tripped. My dad flipped the switch back, but only partially which was why there was power, but the elements weren't working (neither was the stove, thought he said it was working).
But yeah, we removed the back panels and there were no stickers on either side. I'll check next time if they're in the storage cabinet (it's where all the flyers go).

In the market of asking Zaddy for a raincoat.
Looking for something suitable for long walks (I get warm), that I can layer under, thinner than my CK parka would be great.
Budget would be $120 or less. My last coat was $6 and i love it lol. So im also not hung up on looking wealthy or cool lol. Id use it maybe 3-4 times a week.
Am i looking for a shell? What is a shell?
Or a rainjacket?
I found a "rainjacket" on Columbia for $110. Is that a decent price for what im looking for? (what the fuck am i looking for? Aka help me)

Check out Stormtech Factory Outlet. They're on Boundary and Still Creek. Under Hwy 1 between Grandview Hwy and Lougheed Hwy on the east side.

OK I'll try that! Hopefully they have something less than $110. I guess basically what I'm looking for is waterproof, hopefully something in black or dark grey lol.
Anyone here lose or know anyone who lost their car keys in New Westminster last night? If so describe them and the key chain and they'll be returned.
My girlfriend left a note on the main door of her building where they were found on the sidewalk and so far there's been a few callers but describing it completely wrong.
Don't want to keep these keys forever and there's no alarm fob on it to press the panic button to find who's it is. What's the best course of action to take? How long should we keep these keys until it seems like a lost cause?
^ car keys? Id say 90 days holding time. 30 days would be crucial but in some cases ive had people claim stuff up 2.5 months cuz they were on a trip or something.

If you don't want to hold onto it, why not just take it to the police station? Better than getting called up by a bunch of weirdos trying to claim the key.

Is Duffins Donuts closed down? I thought I saw a sign on the windows and the lights looked off as I drove by.
From their FB:
We will be closed for some minor renovations on Nov 27 (Monday) at 5am. Re-opening Nov 28 (Tuesday) at 5am. Closed for 24 hours.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
I had a shower thought today watching my wiper blades go back and forth. They should make wiper blade arms retract slightly up and away from the glass when they down and are in the off position. This way they are in a neutral position. It will make them last longer it they aren't used often.
My Civic's wipers both retract (slightly) into the hood to improve aerodynamics when they're not used. I think higher end cars have done that for a while.
I think the slight savings from increased wiper lifespan wouldn't offset the added cost of repair if the system fails. Such a system may not be entirely legal to have either. I think the main reason wiper blades stop working well is from the rubber compound aging, not from touching the glass when not in use, but I could be wrong.

Wipe down your wipers with alcohol once in a while and it will extend the life of the rubber. Then again, I couldn't be bothered, so I wait until they go on sale a Costco. And........... they were on sale at Costco during their Black Friday sale.

Nono, still pressure down but lift off the glass so it doesn't rest on an angle. Resting on angle fuvks up the blades long term.
Neighbours moving out and they dumped shit on the corner of the road during the middle of the night. I know 100% its theirs because I've seen it in their yard everyday for the past couple years.
I'm pretty sure bylaw wont do squat without proof or catching them in the act. Should I just throw it back in their yard late at night tonight or leave it leaning against their shitbox beater car or leave it as is since its not my property they dumped it on?
