@findependencec1 Take a good stroller and a cooler bag with sandwiches and water bottles. Can eat while you’re in line and save $$ too. Go as early as possible, stay until 2:00 / 3:00, go for a break for a couple hours and go back in the evening. Buy toys at WalMart (Disney theme) and save $$

@flyinghellfish8 @67Dodge Thanks. Yeah, we are very grateful now for sure. Had some discussions and second guessed it when people say to invest instead of your rate is low but this worked out for sure. Even if the rates stayed the same the peace of mind is going to feel awesome.

Most Canadian mortgage holders about to be side-swiped over the next 3 years. "Consider that there is approximately $2-trillion in outstanding mortgage debt. Only 5 per cent of that came up for renewal in 2023, according to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp., with 13 per cent slated for this year. That spikes to 23 per cent in 2025, a whopping 31 per cent in 2026, and 21 per cent in 2027." - Globe & Mail

@burnsieoriginal A couple months ago I bought two full sets in an online auction for $40 total. Went to the location to pick them up and they couldn’t find them, sold lots of other cars lots said it must’ve got mixed in with someone else’s pickup. I’m trying to build the set now the long way.

@PuckJunk @asgrimson I like what you did. Any idea why they skipped 10? Of was it someone who maybe got called up right a print time and the pulled it?

Fellow card collectors, what do you do when you are putting a set in pages, but one (or more) cards in the set was never made? Ignore it? Or use a placeholder? The 1988-89 Salt Lake Golden Eagles team-issued set skipped card 10. (Note the @asgrimson pre-RC at the top right.)

@rlifefinancial @67Dodge @rcarrick I used to transfer from workplace program (Canada Life administers) twice a year to RBC to manage myself. Was told this year there is now a $50 fee. I have RRSP and TFSA accounts so asked if it was $50 total "Oh no sir, $50 per account". Pretty ridiculous.

@67Dodge @rcarrick Great question, especially when it comes to the fees. It can be done online at iTrade but there is a fee of $50, which seems very steep. I would be interested in knowing the fees for this service at other brokerages as well.

@rlifefinancial Yeah, that makes sense to me. Seems fishy for sure as I assumed the DRIP would have a discount of some kind and not be at a premium. Good catch, I honestly don't check the math on the really ever.

Most financially responsible individuals pay their credit cards in full each month! What is the biggest CC bill you've paid in full in a month this year so far? 👇
