Hi all! Besides Nautical Nellie’s is there anywhere that serves Tomahawk steak?
Thank you! ✨🥩
Hi folk, I have twice in the span of 5 days I have 2 attempted scams selling on Facebook marketplace and thought I should warn anyone out there who might fall for this. First I am contacted and asked if I will take an e-transfer. When I agree they send what looks like a real link but is as you can see a jinterac account, not Interac. If you follow it, it will take you to a page asking for your password and username. Be careful out there. I played with them for a while just to keep them busy, but twice in 5 days?
Shaw recently went by my mom’s place and installed the new gear for Ignite TV, gave her next to no training on how to use it, and dipped.
My mother is severely technologically impaired.
I need to walk her through getting hockey games on the screen, but I can’t figure out which exact remote control she was given. Could someone please post a pic so I can see what I’m working with?
Lost my car keys somewhere on the right side by the beach towards beach lands. It’s one car key hooked on a black lanyard with dogs on them. Please be on the look out! 😔
Is anyone else's facebook marketplace results incorrectly showing?
For example, i don't know why on earth i continue to see results in Vancouver (mainland) when i live on the island.
I have this on my iphone..
I got a couple pictures of a GFL truck that had run over a couple of the new bike lane bollards on Caledonian. He knew he had hit them but proceeded to drive away after getting the bin. Obviously going to report it to GFL but I’m not sure where I should report it to the city. Any thoughts?
Looking for recs on good food served outdoors in November!
Hi r/VictoriaBC, I will be visiting your fine region in a couple weeks. My partner and I are both immunocompromised and so we don't dine indoors. We are happy to get takeout, but would also love recommendations for good restaurants that are still doing outdoor dining in November. Luckily, we don't have significant dietary restrictions and love all kinds of food. Please let us know if you have any tips!
Would also love recommendations for pastry and coffee shops, if you have a good one.
Happy Halloween!
Looking for a piano teacher that will come to our home. My dad is disabled and in palliative care and would like to learn the piano. Any recommendations welcomed.
I have had enough of Telus and Koodo. Their price increase every 6 months is not worth it anymore. Public Mobile also has awful customer support. I am thinking about switching to Freedom Mobile where they have a price guarantee. Can any current or past Freedom Mobile customers give some reviews on:
What their coverage is like in Victoria, BC as well as Vancouver?
What their customer service is like?
If you were a Freedom Mobile customer but left for another company ... why did you leave?
Anything else I should know about Freedom Mobile?
EDIT: New additional question. So I read that Freedom roams on other networks like (Telus, Rogers, Bell) if it is outside its own coverage. Why are people experiencing poor coverage (phone reception) then if they are able to roam on other networks?
Looking to shop more local this year. Just not sure where to start.
Was wondering if anybody knows if Nia Classes in Victoria?
Nothing like going against traffic without doing any checks! Could have easily had an head on collision ! This morning at 08:05 head street!
Asides from groceries stores, what's the breakdown of where your food comes from and why - I'm talking CSAs, bulk services like OHM, etc.
I'm mostly plant-based, so meat places are less interesting to me.
It seems like every single grocery store has been completely sold out of pumpkins since yesterday, and many have resorted to selling those "warty" green ones because orange ones are not available.
I haven't seen this happen in past years. Did something happen with the pumpkin harvest this year?
And does anyone know who still might have pumpkins for sale?
Going to ask gp to send me to a specialist due to severe daily migraines for many years and widespread pain all over body. Who are the best doctors to be sent to for this?
I'm thinking of joining another gym and I find the 24 hour operation of this gym appealing. I have never loved gym chains like this, so I already feel pretty reluctant to join, but the hours and location is most convenient for me. I have an aversion to really sketchy gym contracts, so just looking for some feedback about the vibe at this location and the approximate prices.
Anywhere in Vic or surrounding areas I can buy authentic backwoods? Can also dm if you don’t wanna comment! Just wanna smoke a nice blunt
Wanted to share Photo of Parliament Building I took recently
Serious question. I don’t care about partying but I want to do something halloweeny with my partner. Watching spooky movies isn’t cutting it.
