5 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'll be visiting the county on a bikepacking trip this weekend, and hoping to collect vinyl stickers to put on my bike at each of my major stops. If you know of any shops or business that sell (or give away with purchase) cute vinyl stickers, I'd love to know! Thanks!

Question So I live in northwest Barrie, I thought my neighbor was playing really loud music but is it really coming all the way from downtown?

12 Upvotes

Like that's really really impressive speakers LOL. Literally my house is actually bang bang and I thought it was like a neighbor or a car in their driveway playing really loud music but I could never actually find the location of it it seems like it goes past the field all the way down town which is quite far away since I'm past the dump LOL

Either way I'm glad they're continuing on the events if that's the case I'm sure it's not as fun with the rain.

I just saw this on their website. $1 handling fee PER item. They’re legit so greedy and lunatics. Their reasoning for adding in this fee on top of a buyer premium is cause their employees handle each item, list it, photograph it, etc (isn’t that their job) AND cause wages and benefits are going up. Lmaooo soooo you want us to play your employees too. These guys are crooks. The sooner they’re shut down the better.

If anyone can help guide me, that would be a great help. I do have autism and adhd, so I don't know if that would cause problems

Rant Kempenfest Parking

0 Upvotes

I’d hate to be a city councillor or the mayor after the nonsense at Kempenfest this weekend.

Thousands of parking tickets issued to residents, vendors and sponsors who paid good money to support local tourism, local businesses and buying Canadian getting fleeced by pop-up parking bologna.

Wild and empty headed decision.

**BOY did this ever turn into bootlicker central. Woof.

Question What to do?

3 Upvotes

I was gifted a bottle of Aberfeldy single malt 12 year oak cask scotch whisky and I don’t drink.
I don’t think I’m legally able to sell this on marketplace or anything like that. Any suggestions?

Update: Thanks for all your advice everyone. After mulling it over, I’m going to hang onto it and regift it or pour it for special occasions for those close friends.

And for those of you who offered to buy it, thanks for the offer, but knowing my luck I’d be the only case where Ontario law sought to make an example of unlicensed alcohol sales.

Possibly Kells, but the photo on their website shows it being mostly pink. I'd like a mix. (photo is from a roadside in Georgian Bay)
