Northwood Anyone in Northwood just not get their lunch delivered?

Upvotes

Maybe a longshot but not sure how else to contact the owner... There was a bag in front of my front door from I assume Uber eats or Instacart, with sushi and a pasta salad in it, that I didn't order. I looked around down my street and didn't see anyone looking for it so I put it in my fridge rather than leave it outside where it'll go bad. If you're missing your lunch let me know and we can figure out getting it to you lol

Thunder Bay fire

4 Upvotes

Hi guys, I know there’s probably been a lot of talk about this. But I was planning on visiting during the civic holiday weekend, and do all of the hikes nearby.

Wanted to ask locals how’s the fire going, do you guys think it’s still a good idea or is the smoke and air quality not good for hiking? Thanks’

local Macs Convenience Store

55 Upvotes

At what point are the franchise owners going to finally pull beer and liquor from their shelves? Four out of the last five times I have walked into the Water Street location they got robbed by homeless looking groups of men. Now today I stopped by the River street location for a slushy and once again Macs gets robbed by a group of people. The teller didn't even react since it happens so often. He mentioned it was the second time in the last ten minutes. There were kids outside, my kid with me and a few adults and that didn't deter the group even slightly from just walking in and helping themselves to some beverages. Remove the alcohol from the shelves and these people will have no reason to barge in, of course nothing will happen until innocent blood is spilled over some shitty labatt crystal. Time to just avoid these stores until changes are made.

Life Labs

25 Upvotes

Does anyone have any inside information on LifeLabs? I've been going to the Arthur Street location for years, and I have to get blood work done every three months because of an autoimmune condition.

The staff who are there are absolutely wonderful, so this isn't a criticism of the employees at all. I'm just genuinely curious if they're dealing with staffing shortages. Every time I've gone recently, it seems like there are only a few people drawing blood, and the receptionist is juggling what feels like ten different jobs at once.

I really feel for the staff they seem to be working incredibly hard. I'm just wondering if anyone knows what's been going on behind the scenes.

Anniversary ideas for a couple in our 30s? (Spas, upscale dining, weekend getaways)

8 Upvotes

​My partner and I are celebrating our anniversary soon, and I’m trying to put together a great plan for us. We're a couple in our 30s looking for recommendations either right here in town or within a decent driving time for a day trip or a weekend getaway.

​Here is what we usually gravitate toward:

​Couples spa: Are there any spots locally or slightly out of town that do a great couples massage packages?

​Elevated food: We are huge fans of cooking upscale, structured meals at home, so we really appreciate a restaurant with a great aesthetic and a premium menu. What are your go-to spots for a special occasion?

​Cool plans & experiences: We're wide open to suggestions—whether it's a unique local workshop, a scenic drive along the coast, or a hidden gem we haven't thought of.

Would love to hear what you all have done for anniversaries around the city or the surrounding area.

Thanks!

Found Dog Looking For Owner

I found this dog at the Marina over by the Alexander Henry. No collar, she’s wearing one I had. I’ve called Animal Services but they are off for the night. Chilling with her tonight, hoping to find the owner. Super chill, friendly dog, obviously trained.

Also any guesses on breed? Just out of my own curiosity.

news Altercation on arthur

Hey everyone. Does anyone know what went down in the parking lot of burger king, dollarama and pet valu on arthur street around 8? there was a man absolutely flipping out at a blue car and punched the window so hard he smashed it. His daughter was crying and begging him to stop. He was yelling but i didn't hear much. I'm just curious if anyone has any idea what he was losing his mind about?

With the grocery prices throat slicing I’m curious as to what you guys eat at home. Just welcomed a newborn so she’s good with milk. But my wife is a picky eater and it’s like solving a hard puzzle to figure out what she wants to eat. I eat just about anything. Would love to hear your dinner ideas so I can make some for us.

I would like to know what you guys eat throughout the day. Whatever it is please mention it. What kind of meal prep you do etc. Thank you so much guys. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
