If you drive a white Silverado and are missing a snowboard message me details about!
I have it safe for you
Edit: found the guy! Sweet
Can anyone recommend an affordable place were I can get my winter jacket repaired? It came apart at the seem from the armpit down to the side pocket. Nothing is torn the stitching came out, I think it's made of polyester. Just needs to be located along a bus stop.
Thanks!
I've never been to Skinny Dukes so don't know what the vibe is like, but if I was to have a couple friends come visit from out of town/country, and wanted to take them there for a meal and drink or two, do you figure it'd be better to book a table in the upstairs or in the "living room"?
I gather the living room is more unique.
What’s the cheapest way to send a package from Kelowna to Vancouver during the Canada Post strike?
Hello Reddit Kelowna,
I will be visiting Kelowna at the end of January and will be going up to Big White a few times with a rental car. I called Budget and they told me their cars come with all-season tires. Would these be sufficient for getting up to Big White in a standard size sedan?
I appreciate the help!
My friends and I are brainstorming places around town for a fun night out, casual place with good drinks and lots of personality. What’s your favorite spot?
Do not say Arby’s 👀
Anyone been to Big White over the last week and can share what conditions are like? Thanks!
We are calling on the Oversight Committee at Harvest Ministries International to do their jobs and support a third-party investigation into the many serious allegations, against Pastor Art Lucier, of abuse.
Hey peeps! So it’s a super long story but I know this couple in Kelowna that I met through a friend who rented a room from them. They have 2 (I wanna say pitbulls, but one of them looks like he could be mixed with a bulldog of some sorts idk) large dogs, and they’re severely neglected. For about 5-6 months straight, I was the only person buying them toys, refilling their water bowls, letting them outside to do their business, walking them (I can only take the smaller one because the bigger one never goes for walks and would get too excited and I wouldn’t be able to control him), and spending time with them… other than at night time (around 11-4am) when they make them go lay in their room for bedtime with the door closed. I don’t know the owners well, all I know is that they do drugs and don’t take proper care of their animals. My question is, do I need any type of significant evidence to report them? I hate to see them leave their comfort zone, and possibly be separated from each other, but I really feel in my heart that they could do soo much better in a new environment.
They are the sweetest, most loving dogs I’ve ever come across in my life. I brought my mother to meet them one day, she HATES dogs, especially big ones. After that day she’s been nagging me about buying the dogs off of them, or just reporting them so they have a better life because she fell in love with them after like 15 mins of interacting with them lol.
They really are sweethearts and just need to be taken into nature, and see more things than just people coming in and out/their owners constantly walking by and either ignoring them or yelling at them to “go to bed”. It’s really sad.
If I do call and report them, I don’t have any actual evidence other than my word, my friends word, and maybe ex-tenants words.. but if they interviewed the neighbors then they would get the same stories; possibly even more.
I really wanna do something to help but i don’t want to get into any sort of trouble so I did this on a burner account and tried to be as discreet as possible. But pls lmk what u think I should do :) I can respond with more info if needed .
Thanks guys
edit - the dogs are ~4 and ~2 y/o
A big thanks to the dude that was hand shoveling gravel on the Gillard service road. That was pure ice by the afternoon.
A huge shout out to Carolyn in Christmas decorations department, absolutely inundated with questions all while making sure shelves are filled. I had a question on pricing of a Christmas tree 🌲 she took the time to look into my question,and ensure the paperwork was correct for the cashier to ring me through correctly. The entire time with a smile and positive attitude. Thank you so much for your help, a very Merry Christmas to you,your family, and all retail employees this time of year.
Looking for someone to mount a 75-inch TV in Glenmore (Kelowna) area for a reasonable price. Any recommendations for a reliable and affordable service? Preferably someone with experience, as it's a large TV.
Thanks in advance!
Are there any English premiere league fans here in Kelowna? I recently moved here and I’m a huge Manchester United supporter and would love to get together with any other premiere league fans to maybe watch games together or even just chat about games. Doesn’t have to be United supporter, although if you’re a Man Utd supporter it would be more delightful. My DMs are always open. Feel free to hit me up if anyone’s interested in the idea. Cheers…
We just moved back to Kelowna this year and it will be our first Christmas here since having kids. Does anyone have a good recommendation for a “mall” Santa to get pics? The one my nieces and nephew have gone to in the past (I think it was at Orchard Park) was a pretty lame looking middle aged man with fake beard and hair. It’s a real shame, because the Santa where we used to live might have actually been the REAL Santa - jolly old man with a big smile and the real beard. Anyways, if anyone knows of a good spot, please share!
Recently went to a walk-in clinic in the lower mission after getting injured, and i brought a short term disability form + Return to work form in for the physician to fill out. The lady at the front desk told me is would cost $186 FOR EACH DOCUMENT to be filled out. Is this normal? I haven't been to a doctors office in a couple years.
Hi all! I’m starting a small business selling my artwork in various mediums. Nothing that i make will be food or alcohol related. However i do make earrings sometimes. If anyone has any recommendations that would be great! :)
Looking for ideas for some christmas events in December my wife and I can take our son who is almost 5 to. We only have Sundays off together due to conflicting work schedules so something on either a Sunday or Saturday night would be ideal. I know or a few holiday markets and things like that but I'm hoping to find something else I was u aware of. Thanks!
What are some thoughtful/useful items I can include in a holiday pack for the homeless? In the past, I’ve made food and dropped it off - this year I would like to keep some packs in my bag to distribute when I see someone. I live downtown.
Heard they may not open, anyone have the inside scoop?
I've been looking for Vanilla Coke in stores for a while now and I haven't been able to find any. Has anyone seen it in any stores in town, nearby, or anywhere?
Hey folks,
Looking for a recommendation for a local vendor for hats, golf shirts, etc. Ideally someone with some samples on hand and can work with us on pricing for larger orders.
Thanks!
Will try this again without using the term m*ving. Auto bot deleted first attemp. Grrr.
In the title; seeking recommendations on a brow place for older gals. 60+ and low maintenance sort, but eyes not so good so self care getting challenging.
Nothing trendy, just real. Used to use beauty school before m*ving here. But am in Rutland, so hoping for good suggestion on the hill…
TIA.
Does anyone know if the green mile is back to usual after the interference last week?
Wondering if anyone knows or has seen Big Red soda anywhere in Kelowna or West Kelowna (or even further out)? My first thought was the Hollywood convenience store (now a canco?) in Rutland but I can't seem to get ahold of them by phone and I'm id rather not go across the bridge on a hope and a prayer lol.
Thanks in advance!
I know two people in Kelowna that are down with the flu. 🥲 I’d like to order them soup for when they wake up, does anyone a good place to DoorDash/UberEats from?
Thank you in advance 💕
Edit: I’m in India, so that’s why I want to order it online for them
I tripped across an ad for Santa’s Office, which seems to be some kind of ticketed meet Santa experience running in Kelowna. The name of the company putting it on, Showoff Expos, is run by John and Quinn Perks. A quick google will show that this pair have run quite the number of…shady operations over the years. The AI artwork on the single page of their website for this experience maybe lends credence to the fact that this may be another grift.
