Nope. Trimmed down and cubed a pork shoulder.

i honestly cant believe how cheap costco optical is vs something like lenscrafters or these tiny little ma pop optical places.

Ended up getting designer frame + lenses (transition lenses) for $340 tax in

The other guys wanted 800+ for the same crap

Organic Grassfed beef, Organic Grassfed butter, etc shipped all the way from New Zealand/Australia, is cheaper than local non-organic non-grassfed beef/butter etc

Make it make sense (been that way thru the entire pandemic/lockdown)

westopher 08-23-2022 09:09 PM

It's because the farming regulations are much more stringent in NZ and Aus, and the weather is more conducive to year round farming, and the practices that support that type of open field farming. It really just comes down to fertile farmland/supply.

StylinRed 08-23-2022 09:53 PM

They're tiny, so tiny 1/5th the size of BC, the same climate as BC, and 12000 kms away, export worldwide, and still far cheaper than locally raised though X.X

My money is on local farms screwing us :lol

westopher 08-23-2022 10:04 PM

Same climate as the lower mainland sure, but BC, no. I work very closely with a lot of farmers, have visited many beef suppliers, and honestly, I wish they were making more money. You're right about the feedlot shit farmers fucking us though. Garbage beef, garbage practices, garbage people.
Big part of that is the standards for food here are embarrassing. Lol at the Alberta quality beef bullshit that places like Cargill speak of. Fuck them so much.
It doesn't help that so much of our best farmland has become condos over the past 40 years.

there is a Greek restaurant that I frequent, now adds mandatory 18% tip all customers, not just big group. Needless to say, I'm never going back there again.

GLOW 08-24-2022 10:21 AM

scam if that's forced - they should include it in the menu pricing

68style 08-24-2022 10:23 AM

^ Wow really... which one is that? Greek food is already crazy expensive as it is / always has been

It's like $28 after 18% tip and 5% GST :lawl:

CivicBlues 08-24-2022 11:27 AM

Maybe not as bad but several Ramen places started to default to 18% minimum as well.

I thought tips were frowned upon in Japan?!?!

Badhobz 08-24-2022 11:33 AM

Yes a bowl of cheapy ramen is now on average 15+.

McDouble for life

It's okay, not eating = lose weight = weight reduction = go faster = winning!

Me: hey my doors are reinforced carbon fibre plastic. Cool weight savings on my car
Her : waste of time, you’re still a fat ass
Me: you win this round bitch…..
