I used to live in an area where all the streets had the same name, just Drive, Court, Crescent, etc. All the houses started with the same number too. Whoever thought that was a good idea must've been new.

The gal with the Beats was not hard to look at SeemsGood

Exact same concept in my hood.

Are you currently living in that unit? the fumes smell pretty bad, but i use these guys https://bathtubresurfacing.ca/

i also have contacts to a korean couple that does a really good as well, however their paint smells even worst LOl

Not living in it yet, so paint fumes won't be much of a problem. Would you go with the Korean couple in my situation then?

Definitely not an Okanagan thing. It's happened to me before too.
It shocks me that there are this many people who lack basic human etiquette. More often than not many of my conversations with buyer/sellers just end with them completely ignoring me it's mind boggling.

Her: Hi are the speakers available?
Me: Yes
Her: Still in working condition?
Me: Yeah works fine, just a tiny scratch on the side, barely noticeable
Her: Ok cool, I'm poor, I'll give you $20
Me: Sorry it's listed for $80, but if you come pick up I'll do $40
Her: How about 30?
Me: Sure I'll do 30 for you, when do you want to pick it up?
*silence*
*10min later*
Me: Hello? You still want it?
chat dies
:speechless:

Do they not have the decency to at least say something? ANYTHING?
Like "I don't need it anymore thanks"

Over the years I've ended up with a random collection of foreign coins from all over the world. It's not much, maybe a total of a few bucks worth altogether.
Coins from Japan, Korea, Panama, Cuba, Mexico, China, Phillipines, etc...
I feel kinda bad to just chuck them in the trash, what would you do with them?

Put it up for free on Craigslist and it will go

Try holding a garage sale. I made the mistake of doing that a few years back. People telling you hard luck stories. You give in, only to find out they're selling it to others for a profit. Now I just donate everything to Habitat for Humanity and Value Village.

Were you guys getting email notifications when Amazon delivered your packages? I noticed I was getting email alerts sometime in Oct-Nov which was nice since I'm WFH and if they don't knock, at least I get an email so I know to get my package asap. But then in Dec, they suddenly stopped sending the email notifications. Sometimes they knock or ring the bell, but most of the time they don't.

Fortunately I've never had packages stolen before. But a few months back, I ordered a bunch of stuff from AliExpress. I waited over a month for my items. One day I happen to be walking along the side of my house (where it's not really a path way) to check on something and I noticed there was a pile of packages hidden, lol.

Wtf, it's like the delivery guy was being too clever..

With the app installed, I usually get a notification minutes after it's been delivered. Sometimes it is accompanied by a photo of the package against my door as well.

Also I think the [instagram] [ /instagram] embedding is broken?

Tried that once before, i'll throw everything in the garabge rather than touch that again.

there are actually some ways to donate those.

i don't know anything about this charity but it's just one example.

March of Dimes, lol. Kind of fits in, yes?

They've been around for a long time, but did not know they had this available. The things you learn on RS.

You see what he's been going through with his insane ex-wife and the divorce? Don't blame him :lol

All this talk about Amazon delivery is making me think:

Why not invest in a numbered/smart padlock lockbox? Obviously with Amazon it's not too big of a deal if it gets stolen. Depending on how much you shop with Amazon, their customer service is pretty decent. But with bigger $$$ items, ie. monitors, I would get it sent to work or install a lockbox.

Then in delivery instructions just write the passcode and make a sign for the lockbox. The only thing is, what if they steal your lockbox :troll:

I have Amazon app on my phone too. I'm not getting any notifications. Weird.


LOL. Needed the AWD.

I have most of my Amazon parcels sent to my Flex Delivery address at the Shoppers Drug Mart at Kensington Square. I get notifications. I also put any tracking info I have in the Canada Post app. It's pretty darn good. The delay happens when the post office at Shoppers is overcome by the amount of parcels that arrive on a daily basis. Sometimes they cannot scan all items that come in until the next day. After the scan, the item is marked as delivered and I get the e-mail.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a place to buy used car parts?

Do junk yards do this? How does it work, do I have to remove the parts I need and I just pay for them?

I need a couple parts for a 2004 BMW X5 (E53).
I need a grab handle and power seat assembly.

Thanks

^ depends on the place, some are you-pull, some aren't. Check car-part.com for wreckers that have the parts you need, some will ship, some won't. If you can't search for the exact part I usually search something generic for that model (like a door or w/e) to see which wreckers have one, then call them direct and ask if they have the weird piece I need.

Gave it a shot on that website, but couldn't find my part. My friend gave me an address of a wrecker on Mitchell island. I'll give them a shot. He said if they had my car, they would let me part it out and negotiate a price. I'll give it a shot.

is there a way to view whatsapp media but not download it?
i have automatic downloads off already, but when someone sends a pic or vid i want to look at it, but not necessarily download and save it. i hate having to go into my icloud every so often to delete hundreds of stupid pictures and videos

Can't you just turn off backup to iCloud for WhatsApp folder?

Not sure about iOS, but that's possible on Android

if you turn off backup for media, but then your friend sends a picture, the picture will look blurry first. if you want to see it you have to click it, which is the same as downloading it, and it will get backed up to icloud.

For BMWs, Affordable Auto Parts near Market Crossing is great in terms of availability of parts.

That said, their name is misleading because their prices are pretty expensive in my experience. But in terms of convenience and having the right stock that you can pick up immediately without having to scour online or wait for shipping, I've always paid the premium.

They are not pick-and-pull (at least not any more with COVID as far as I know), you'll have to ask them for what you need.
