Lol, I’m in the car at Chinatown. Parked while my kids go Kent’s Kitchen, Manpuku, the bakery, etc. this Camry tries to park in front of me. Driver is basically at 45 degrees when she hits the curb. Husband gets out and tells wife to get out. He’s just as bad as the wife. Four tries later he manages to squeeze into a spot two cars can get into.

Because of Covid, you have to buy the whole package. Probably not worth it for you, but the info is there for others who are contemplating sending parcels for Xmas. Better do it now, before it's too late.
Size does matter, but weight really makes a difference.... to answer your question better, click on link below and search for "Find aRate". The website is slow.
NVM, you have to have an account with Canada Post. I have an account, so I can do it, but I have to put in all the details, like where it's going and all that. Opening an account, IIRC, wasn't that hard. I guess the alternative is to go to a post office and ask. Lineups are long this time of year. I'm going to my local Shoppers today, pm me the size and weight of your parcel and I'll find out for you. Post Office lady there and I go way back. Just general area where the parcel is going to, weight and size.

Any of you have experience with the Weiser smart keys? I'm having trouble getting it to work smoothly. I need to jiggle the newly programmed key to get it to work and sometimes it needs like 30 seconds of jiggling. I've tried reprogramming it 3-4 times already. Also every time I program it back to the original key, it works nice and smooth.

Need this in 3/8" diameter. Anyone have any leads?
Otherwise, I'm wondering how strong a bumper repair kit like this one is if I plan to drill a hole in it after for the correct sized expanding rivet. Long story short, I'm an idiot and drilled a 3/8" hole when I should've used a 1/4" bit instead.

Jezuz fucking hell........... how the hell do they do it?
We don't have this calibre of marching bands at any level. High school? And how the hell do they record the music in such high quality? It's a high school gym!
Better than most military bands. Especially here in Canada.
Another one outside......... as a band director, it's hard to have two clarinets play in tune, let alone 25+. I'm out of breath just watching this. Lungs and embouchure of steel.

i did make an account, thanks! yeah actually once it's considered a parcel, then regardless of whether it's in an envelope or not, it's pretty much charged the same as a box. too bad, my items are lightweight but poofy, so although they fit in an envelope especially if they're pressed down, they still count as a parcel and it costs $9 to ship even within vancouver.
