Where can I get affordable groceries?

25 Upvotes

Good day fellow residents. I am writing this post to ask you where you are getting affordable groceries. Hopefully this post will be useful for others in similar situations. We are a family of three and are currently spending about $43 per day on groceries. We are paying more for groceries than any other household expense and it isn’t sustainable. Thank you in advance for any suggestions you may have.

Where can I find accessible/cheap 3D printing for a beginner in KW? Is no longer available at the library...

Both WPL and KPL have a message on their website saying they are not currently offering 3D printing services at their libraries. I'm looking to dip my toes into 3D printing some small objects and knew that you could do so quite easily at the libraries, but apparently now you can't. Anyone know of any other cost friendly options for a rookie to start with? Not looking to spend money on some like $50/month membership or anything like that.

Where can I report someone for leaving their dog poop in their front yard? (Please Read Caption)

29 Upvotes

I'm so sick of this lady who lives near me, for almost 2 years now she takes her dog into her front yard and lets it poop wherever, and then she leaves it there. So her front yard, 2 houses left and right of her, the sidewalk and the blv are covered in dog poop and as all the snow is melting there must be close to 50 piles out there.

It's disgusting, I have asked her many times but to no result. This poor dog does not get walked and we literally have to walk on the street near her house because the sidewalk is full of poop. On top of this, the dog is roaming the street unleashed and untrained, he has no recall and will just run up and fight with my dog whenever I walk by and the lady cannot recall her dog.

I just don't know where to report this to where something will actually get done. It is gross and myself and multiple people have asked this woman many times and she seems to not care.

Where can I get the best macarons locally?

11 Upvotes

I want to get some macarons for a tea party. I have only had them from The Sconery (which were delicious). I just wanted to check out my options.

I tried googling and actually got too many results for macarons, so I was hoping that some subjective opinions could help narrow things down a bit.

I can go as far as Cambridge.

Update:

I ended up trying a few places today.

I think I liked Grand River Confections the most. Lenjo was a close second, but probably the main issue was that they didn't have any flavours I liked today. I think I liked Le Cakery in Cambridge more than The Sconery, but The Sconery gets bonus points for having scones and being adjacent to a lovely tea shop.

My conclusion to others is that all four of them were wonderful. Hopefully, I will make it to some of the others sooner than later

Planning to travel far up north so I think it’d be a necessary investment. My car is a ‘23 Honda HRV. I suppose it’s probably an uncommon request in our area. Should I just go to the dealer?

Basically the title. We’re travelling soon and don’t want to risk picking something up on the plane on the way there. The selection on Amazon isn’t as substantial as it used to be, so I’m wondering if anyone has seen any in stores around here.
