I know they are not the greatest, but if you have ever smelled rotting potatoes, you would be shocked to find a few hundred pounds of them in a supermarket. The stench was unbelievable. This was 2…Continue

Has anyone else noticed the exponential growth in the size of baby strollers? My god ladies, you may as well be pushing a Hummer. I was in a local coffee chop today when a convoy of them came in.…Continue

ChrisG replied to Steve Coulter's discussion These old houses - foundation work?"It sounds like an old mud room that was converted, or an addition that wasn't done properly. You may be able to put a beam across the structure. Digging new piers will obviously be a problem, but I would have to see it. Best to fix the problem…"
ChrisG replied to Streetcar Prints's discussion Flyer delivery in the area?"Michael,
Try John Blunt, Blunt Advertising. 416 720-3597."
ChrisG replied to Salsero Ruiz's discussion Cheap haircut place?"Go see Anna, across the street from the Pawn Shop, a few doors East of Tearo. $15. She's been here for many years."
ChrisG replied to David T's discussion landscaping/front porch contractors?"Hi David,
I can have a look at your porch if you wish. Or at the very least, I'm happy to answer any questions you have. Most of our work is in Leslieville/Riverdale. FYI, a new porch is anywhere between $5,000 and $12,000, (I know that's…"
Andrew Lister replied to ChrisG's discussion Aggressive solicitations at your door?"You are right, I think its just that it needs to be reported and the more reports the more action that is taken. Thankfully there is always someone home at our house. "
ChrisG replied to ChrisG's discussion Aggressive solicitations at your door?"Unfortunately, there is nothing the police can really do. He would be long gone by the time they arrived. Remember that the police enforce law, but can't prevent someone from breaking it. As brutal as it sounds, I don't think a foot in the…"
Andrew Lister replied to ChrisG's discussion Aggressive solicitations at your door?"We had an issue with these people yesterday but we have large dog. He actually put his foot in the door to prevent it closing. I am calling the police next time. "
ChrisG replied to ChrisG's discussion Aggressive solicitations at your door?"I admire your resolve, but do know that some of these folks are actually criminals. It appears as if you have no children, no husband, and no dog. You are a perfect target. You must leave for work at some point, yes?
They are assessing the situation…"
Pat replied to ChrisG's discussion Aggressive solicitations at your door?"I have changed my tactics dealing with them. Instead of just saying "no thanks" and closing the door in their face, I calmly tell them (denying them access to my home) why I find their practices dishonest and unethical. After a couple of…"
ChrisG replied to ChrisG's discussion Aggressive solicitations at your door?"Kinda sucks, I had two in a row one evening and then I had a good friend come knock my door soon after. Poor guy. "What the f do you wa.....oh, hey how are you?"
JK replied to ChrisG's discussion Aggressive solicitations at your door?"Yep, we had one today that made it seem like they were a third party acting on behalf of Enbridge - coming around to swap out our older "rented" water heater with a new more energy-efficient model. I just laughed in their faces - we…"
m b replied to ChrisG's discussion Aggressive solicitations at your door?"We've had multiple. All different companies we don't do business with. Very bold. I can't believe it's legal."
ChrisG replied to TC's discussion Its official - Walmart coming to Gerrard Square"I have never understood the attraction to Walmart. They are a bit cheaper when it comes to toothpaste and detergent, but much pricier than other retailers when it comes to other stuff, like.....anything really."
The Leslievillain replied to ChrisG's discussion Produce quality at Loblaws, yikes!"The newish No Frills on Front is pretty decent for basics, although they don't carry everything Loblaws does. "
JK replied to ChrisG's discussion Produce quality at Loblaws, yikes!"We've given up and just started going to the Loblaws @ Maple Leaf Gardens. Its worth the drive."
