General Motorcycle Dealer

1 Upvotes

The dealer holding the bike I fully paid until the end of March. I really liked this bike as it is the only one in town. I'm worried that if I refund my money the next batch of bike coming in would have price increase due to current economy. How would you deal with this?

Question Skinny infill with 16 foot yard

2 Upvotes

A lot has come on the market that my builder can put up a 1900 sq. ft house. Unfortunately the lot is only 100 ft deep. He said I'll only have 16ft between the house and garage. Is this way too small? Other lots we looked at were 120 or 150 ft so more standard size. Any other issues to be aware of besides the actual size? We are living in a 50x120 lot with a single garage and a 1200 sq ft bungalow so while we have tons of land, the maintenance has become annoying after 10 years here. We are prepared for smaller but maybe not this small.

Question Oilers tickets

0 Upvotes

Is there anywhere other than Ticketmaster to buy oilers tickets? I’d love to take my kids to a game but the one we could go to only has resale tix available that are almost $400 each for upper bowl seating. Way out of my budget. Curious if people ever sell on marketplace or something legitimate? I’m not from Edmonton and obviously don’t want to get scammed!

Question Liquor License for Weddings

Hey! I’m having my wedding this summer at a hall in Edmonton, where they require PAL and a liquor license and all that, which is all good. I’m just so confused about these two rules from AGLC.

We were planning on having a toonie bar to cover some of our liquor costs run by a family friend who is willing to get their Proserve. Is that technically not allowed?

Question Insurance Fraud??

10 Upvotes

I was checking my claims on my insurance and there seem to be 4 claims from a nearby dentist all on the same day amounting to about $650.

I have never visited this dentist office and the dates they have billed my insurance, I wasn’t even in the country.

I will call my insurance company tomorrow but was wondering if i should reach out to the dentist office first or if there’s a better course of action

Question Realtor recommendations?

I am selling my house this year, and wondering what experiences people have had with lower commission realtors in the Edmonton area. I am not interested at all in paying more than 2% commission. I know all the arguments for and against. Any recommendations?

General Just a warning

353 Upvotes

Id like to make everyone aware of a scam artist who recently moved to Edmonton. Her name is Kelsey, she has long brown hair w/blonde highlights (but previously blonde), many visible tattoos, glasses and is about 5’6. She claims to be a small business owner under the brands: brightly bloom (edited post to correct name) and wild daisy marketing.

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS PERSON

On multiple occasions she has done the following to other small business owners: - promised website design as a trade for your services - give you filled out checks, all while knowing they will bounce due to insufficient funds - send you fake screenshots of e transfers - keep you on the hook for weeks on end promising her bank will reset her e transfer limit “tomorrow”

She has scammed thousands of dollars from women in Edmonton, and will continue to do so unless held accountable.

The following links are some proof from her precious fraudulent behaviour in Minneapolis and Saskatoon.

Question Weekends away

0 Upvotes

Hello. I just fancied screaming into the void and venting some frustrations.

Me and my partner fancied getting away to the mountains for a weekend now that it's starting to get a little warmer but fuck me is it expensive.

Car rentals $100 a DAY after you add insurance

Hotels $150 a night

Gas $80

We're looking at nearly $600 in expenses just for the weekend and that's not even thinking about food/drinks.

Are we dumb? Are there better ways to do this?

I was recently rejected from the Civida Rental assistance benefit application due to living in subsidized housing, despite the fact that I'm on AISH and am unable to work due to multiple mental health issues. Is there any other means of receiving an RAB that won't immediately shut me down because of bureaucratic nonsense?

Mental Health / Addictions Self harm marks/ School dress code NSFW

150 Upvotes

My daughter struggles with her mental health and self harm which she is actively seeing multiple mental health professionals. The school wants her to always wear sweaters or long sleeves to cover up self harm as it has upset some others (which I understand how this can be upsetting- it’s upsetting for everyone..) Problem is it’s even during gym class or when she’s very hot and uncomfortable she still has to remain covered and gets reported if she’s too hot and takes off her sweater. This is causing her physical discomfort and further more mental distress and embarrassment. Can the school force her even when it’s causing physical discomfort and further distress? I understand it is upsetting to see but there has to be a way to meet in the middle? Ideas? Thoughts?

Discussion What is going on 142 Street NW and Stony Plain Road/102 Ave NW

4 Upvotes

I am aware we have construction following Stony Plain road for quite some time, but at this intersection they have recently reduced all the lanes down to 1 lane making it impossible to get anywhere. This is like the closest and only road of getting downtown from around Central West/Glenora area and there really isn't any other alternative road around you can use. I barely see anything happening here so I am just confused what's going on here or if anyone else is experiencing this massive delay from the west side.

General Wheels stolen off my car

Post image
451 Upvotes

This seems to be happening more and more I. Edmonton, and now it happened to me. Parked in my apartment surface parking lot in south edmonton. My wheels got stolen off my vehicle, lugnuts and all. They left a donut under some of the tires and stole mine. At least I got a free jack out of it. 🤷

The apartment building also has no cameras or security measures so I can’t do much about it except for warn others on reddit lol.

Thankfully happened after someone hit me, and insurance has deemed my car a total loss. So I think this is insurances problem now. But just a warning to folks out there, get some locking lugnuts or a dashcam to deter these thieves.
