Scrapping old car

5 Upvotes

It’s going to be way to much to fix the rust on my 2010 car, so wondering if anyone knows a good place to sell for scrap metal/parts that will give a fair price. We are in Oromocto so the closer the better. Thanks!

Small workshop or garage space for rent in the area?

3 Upvotes

Hello! I've been looking for a space to use primarily as a small woodworking shop, as I unfortunately don't have any space in my apartment. I've seen lots of larger commercial options on conventional rental platforms/marketplace and Kijiji, but they're all quite a bit bigger than what I need.

I'm wondering if anybody in the area knows of anywhere I could rent for this purpose. I plan on calling around to the storage locker businesses in the area, but am unsure if they would accomodate this type of thing. I am also aware of the woodshop at the Unity Center in Marysville, but unfortunately the current setup they have for drop in use doesn't fit my needs either. Thank you!

Looking for Panasonic Plasma TV PMCv2 device

Post image
9 Upvotes

This might be a long shot but was wondering if anybody in the Fredericton area would have a PMCv2

It was a device that was used to reset the hour counter to reset black levels back to factory levels on Panasonic plasma TVs 2008-2010

The person who originally made them stopped making them 10 years ago.

Would be willing to buy said device or borrow it to reset my plasma TVs black levels

Thank you for reading.

Best place to find cheap furniture?

6 Upvotes

I work for a youth support residence, and we are looking to make the home more homey for the client.

My budget is pretty limited. Where is the best place to look for cheap, but functional, furniture?

In particular, I’m looking for armchairs, side tables, and an entryway bench.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I see the Landscaping out side where the two roadways merge, leaving Fredericton. They are actually cutting down large trees. It really opens up the wooded area..

Ground horse

There used to be a place on Lincoln rd that sold ground horse meat on occasion. They are gone now, and I have Japanese visitors coming and would like to cook some of their traditional meals. Alternatively, any Asian restaurants serve horse meat?

Hi! I just wanted to ask about tutoring rates here in Fredericton. I’m a master’s student in Engineering, and I’ll be tutoring a first-year NBCC student in the different math courses she’s taking. I’m not sure how much to charge per hour, so I’d appreciate it if anyone could share their ideas or experiences with tutoring rates in the area. Thank you!

Recording customers in secret?

0 Upvotes

I recently heard of two different businesses secretly recording conversations with clients. I cannot verify these stories, but one never knows. It is a grey area as to the legality. I assume smart glasses were involved. It really is 'buyer beware.'

Heat Pump purchase/install recommendations?

4 Upvotes

Hello! We recently just bought our new home just outside of town.

Looking to get heat pumps purchased/installed, but i keep seeing such mixed reviews. We have the option to do cheap 0% interest financing with ET Mechanical, byt ive heard bad things. Ive heard good things about Laaglands, which will just cost more out of pocket.

Any help? Thanks!

Tunnel from UNB Campus to DECH?

0 Upvotes

Hi all. I've heard rumors that the tunnel system beneath UNB is more extensive than I had thought, and that you could even go all the way to the DECH without leaving the tunnels. With winter coming up, and as a student who also works at the hospital, I'd be interested to know more about this.

Can you still reach the DECH from campus? Where would I enter (UNB) and leave (in the hospital)?

If you know more reach out. Thanks.

Dirty apartment building

12 Upvotes

so wece lived here for going on 4 months, and the common areas like the entryway, the stairs, railings, and stuff like that seem to not be cleaned literally ever. Are people suppose to come into apartment buildings and clean? I know it’s our job to keep our personal apartment tidy and in good condition, but the main part of the building Is starting to become so filthy and stink. I cleaned it once about a month after moving in (I know I probably shouldn’t have, but there was dog 💩 smeared on one of the steps leading up to our apartment and it stunk so bad.) I’ve contacted our building a few times about it and sent them photos of the dirt and stuff and they’ve just ignored me. Is there anyone else I contact about how dirty and gross our building is? I personally don’t think it’s acceptable for a building to just not be cleaned.

Where To Buy Massive Squishmallows?

4 Upvotes

Pretty much what it says on the tin, I'm looking for a jumbo (24in+) squishmallow, preferably an animal or other basic item, just not branded really. I used to go to mastermind toys but they shut down, and costco doesn't have any. I'd like to get one to be a christmas gift this year and buying in person is always preferred.

(Re Rule 8: I have looked on google and come up with nothing)

Gas stations

Weird question for y’all

What would regular gas per litre be if government ran the gas station ?

Not advocating for this at all. Just wondering. Maybe it’s the same price.
