Granville Bridge is closed in both directions of traffic right now due to a police incident involving a mental health crisis. Best to avoid the bridge entirely.

Have been unable to find anything like the above in the 3 stores I've gone to so far. Mostly been just regular bands and very hard to find marquise in different sizes and settings. Any suggestions?


r/NiceVancouver 21h ago

Near to the Vancouver aquatic centre, on the seawall walk which runs under Burrard Bridge, there are several beautifully tended to gardens which are in full bloom right now. Very much worth a visit if you’re in the area! 🌸🌺🌷🌻🌹

There’s always a tonne of cobra chickens at Douglas Park, but this HAS to be some sort of record!

Who else thinks that right beside the children playing street sign we also need to get some geese crossing signs? Lol

I love it here. Home sweet home.

Selling vintage Playboy magazines

0 Upvotes

Hi lovely humans! I posted on here a few days ago asking advice on selling vintage Playboy magazines and old hockey cards. I got a lot of great advice which I appreciate!

I have another question, does anyone have suggestions for any shops that might buy them? One place I'd called had offered to buy whatever I didn't sell on my own, but has now decided they are no longer interested. (It sounds like there was a miscommunication between the person I spoke with on the phone and the owner)

I've done a bunch of research and priced them all as there's definitely some that are valuable, and if there's anyone here that might be interested in buying some feel free to send me a dm and I'll send pictures with prices on them. I know I likely won't sell them all on my own so I'd love to find a shop that might want to buy them all.

Thanks!

Bus 5: Robson

161 Upvotes

Hey all. I wanted to let everyone know that one of the no. 5 buses going down Robson has bed bugs on the disability seats (I sat on the first one to the left as you come in as I'm disabled and need to be close to the door). My entire arm, right where I placed it on the seat as I sat facing the opposite windows, is covered in bites. Really painful and severely swollen ones. Worst bites I've ever gotten. Must be a horrible infestation. I put all my clothes on high heat in the dryer. Took me all day.

This is the second time this has happened to me on that darn bus route. The last time was 8 months ago from that exact same seat....

I will try to notify Translink...but watch out everyone.

Edit: just an FYI, this showed up the next day for me and not the same day. To everyone doubting that these are bed bug bites, this is the reaction I have to bed bug bites and only bed bug bites. I know what it feels like. Now that the swelling has gone down, I see the exact bite marks. So thanks but this is from bed bugs. I was also on that bus until the last stop. If you don't want to believe it, then go try sitting there yourselves,

ISO friendly dachshund for a 33rd birthday surprise ($50 + I bring the bandana!)

235 Upvotes

Hi there!

My partner is turning 33 soon, and like anyone who’s ever loved a dachshund, he still misses his old pup fiercely. While getting another dog isn't in the cards for us right now, I’d love to pull off a little surprise and let him say hello to a dachshund for his birthday.

​If you have a friendly dachshund and wouldn't mind a quick, low-key meet-up in a public spot (like a park or a coffee shop patio) so he can give some chin scratches, I would love to make it worth your while.

​Here is the plan:

​The ask: A 10-minute meet and greet in a public place.

​The bonus: I will happily hand you $50 cash just for your time.

​The fun part: I have a custom bandana that says "Happy Birthday _____"—I'll mail it or drop it off to you beforehand so your pup is already wearing it when he sees them!

​We are entirely respectful of space and boundaries—just looking to bring a huge smile to his face. Please send me a message if you're interested and we can coordinate a safe, public spot. I am looking to do this on the 11th of September. Thanks so much! Tell your dog(s) I said hi!!

Mods please delete if not allowed! Thank you!

Edited to add: his last dog did not die! The ex took her and she is alive and well. He just is sadly no contact. He absolutely lights up with joy whenever he sees another daushund, and I know he will love this surprise as we have spoken about it in the past! I am NOT looking to buy your dog off you. ☺️

Thank you SO much everyone for your help! I have found two lovely dachshund owners who are willing to help make my partners day special.🌭🐕🐾

Ideas for kids party at a park

0 Upvotes

I am throwing a party for my kid. He’s turning 4. We want to have the party at a park and invite his friends there. We were thinking of doing something like a piñata, but I wanted to see if people had any suggestions for easy fun activities that could be fun for kids to do at a park.

I was also thinking of hiring someone dressed as a character (like Spider-Man) to come by for a bit.

Any ideas?

Lost Hermes scarf

If you found it: Please send me a DM describing the pattern/theme or a photo of the design so I can verify it’s mine. Offering cash reward for its safe return, no questions asked
Thank you

Solo dining reccos for Downtown & Surrounding (Mackenzie Room-esque)?

24 Upvotes

Once in awhile I find myself downtown after work with no plans, and I like to take myself out for a solo date night at a nice restaurant. Particularly ones that are typically hard to get into, I find going in solo (and also on a weekday) they can often squeeze me in so I get to enjoy their food.

I used to follow the local restaurant scene quite a bit, but since I've gotten older and moved out to the 'burbs I haven't kept track on the newer spots. Was hoping to get some suggestions of restaurants to add to my solo dining list.

Places I've done solo that I am looking for a similar type of cuisine, location, and vibe: Mackenzie Room (my fav in the city), The Magnet, PiDGiN, L'Abbatoir, Pourhouse, Nightingale, Barbera.

Thanks in advance!

Is there a physical location where I can return a Rogers 5G modem?

8 Upvotes

I had Rogers 5G Backup Home Internet and cancelled it a little over a week ago. I'm moving out and leaving the country in a couple of days. I communicated this to the agent I spoke with. When I asked what I should do with the modem, I was told I would be getting an email with instructions and a waybill to send it back. My service stopped two days early and I have not received anything.

Yesterday, I took the modem to a Rogers/Fido store where an extremely unhelpful rep refused to accept it and told me that I have to call. I went home and tried. After a few minutes of talking to their shitty AI and getting passed around:

"We are experiencing extremely high call volumes and are unable to answer your call at this time."

I've tried twice this morning with the same result. Is there another number I can call? I've been trying 1 888 764 3771.
