Your Telus bill that came out is for the upcoming month. Just port your number to cancel and then wait for the following bill which will be properly adjusted.

Don't pay first and wait for an adjustment, wait for the adjustment and then pay.

Went to check out the Black Friday sale at Summit Tools. I needed a tool bag. A small one, just to carry a couple of cordless tools, extra batteries, and charger. They had Milwaukee and Dewalt ones for $4.97. I really didn't look that hard for tools, but did pick up a cheap Milwaukee M12 1/4 inch hex impact driver, non Fuel for $49.99.

Summit take cordless tool sets apart and sell the items individually. That's why they have like over 1000 contractor bags and shitloads of chargers. All new, but from combo sets.

https://summittools.com/promotions/


Apologies............. I should have posted this before Friday. "Prices too low to advertise." To prevent price match wars, lol.


This is the one I got for $49.99.

Those little 12 volt drivers are good for a backup or small stuff around the house which I’m sure a guy like you is buying it for, but other than that they are kinda useless

Site seems to be having issues, did change plan and it just comes up with an empty white box.

For those of you looking to switch carriers (for whatever reason) Fido now offers new activation plan for $34 for 50GB when you bring your own phone. Only caveat (if it matters to anyone) is you are limited to 4G LTE speeds I believe up to 150Mbps and no access to 5G network. I use less than 3GB a month (and that's trying) so the use case is perfect for me.

I have drivers in just about every configuration. Everything from the compact M12 to M18 SDS impact drill. All three levels of 1/2 inch M18 Fuel impact guns. 1/2 inch Fuel impact wrench. Wanting the long reach, but I rarely touch stuff theses days. Getting too old for working on cars like I used to. Oil changes are about it, lol.

I want the Milwaukee Pruner. Got Milwaukee hedge trimmer, grass trimmer, hatchet, etc.

I have too many tools (said no one, ever). Did I mention tripod lights, floodlights, inflators, multitesters, vacuums - all Milwaukee. Don’t ask how many batteries and chargers I have.

Dyson also has pretty good customer service. We had a V8 (I think) and needed some replacement parts even though it was several years old and because of how it's built they had to send us a new motor and housing so by buying a new battery we now have two V8s in the house. They've also sent a free battery replacement as well with minimal hassle.

Maybe other stick vacs have caught on performance but Dyson was the first and my wife loves our V8s and wouldn't want to switch brands at this point. She loves everything they sell now.

Love their car fragrances. Their holders, not so much. I have plain ones in matte black, grey, and silver, but they are really hard to get on sale days.

For this time of year, I put in the, “Tis’ the Season,” refills. Same with the Wallflowers. Simple plain holders. I look at the glittery shit they have and cringe. Something those women who drive around in cars with eyelashes would love.

Edit: Forgot to mention that you can stack offers. They give you $10.00 off $40.00 coupon after each purchase. I asked and they gave me one on Black Friday. It was buy 3 get 3 deal on that day.

For PS5, I’ve had mine for almost 2 years now, best games I’ve played

Cyberpunk
Red dead 2
Spider-Man 2
Hogwarts Legacy
Witcher 3

And Warzone, honestly COD:Warzone is the most fun I’ve ever had with an FPS going back to the CS days, you gotta be playing with buddies but man, it’s a blast. Resurgance and Rebirth are amazingly fun and while it sounds stupid, I feel like this is about as close as you’ll get to like actual real urban combat etc lol

More or less been having the same thought for a while now that the PS5 is easy to get but then I stop and take a look at what's out and it looks kind of bunk. Then I question is it because I've gotten older and the games just look lame or is it just actually lame? I told my son the minute The Last of Us 3 or GTA 6 comes out I'll buy it but until then we're fine with the switch and PS4.
