Yeah I got ketchup Lays in Toronto for the first time and regret not bringing more home.

Never seen that flavor before in the US, now I want to try some. I just checked the grocery and the standard bag here is still 8oz (around 225g). We are getting screwed on price here though, name brand chips have basically doubled in price the past few years. We now buy whatever happens to be on sale rather than what we want.

Ours is open 9-9 Mon-Thurs, 9-5 Fri&Sat and 1-5 Sunday. One of the few benefits living in a fairly large city.

These were 2 for $1 a few years ago. The only way to do McD for cheap now is to order in the app, they always have coupons and bogo deals. I was against these apps for privacy reasons for a long time but the upside is not having to hand your card to a random McD worker and worry about it getting skimmed. Also if you drive thru you just tell them your name or order number and that's it.

Yep, our newest TV is about 8 years old and the only thing we would get from this years model is slightly better picture quality.

It is not just that, they also pay IT staff below market rate so they don't get the best people.

TVs are very cheap now. The 40" Samsung LCD in my basement cost $1,200 fifteen years ago. It will soon be replaced by a 43" Samsung 4K TV that costs under $300.

DVD players used to cost $500+ and are now practically free.

I pay $15/month for xbox game pass and have access to hundreds of games. I don't own them but I can if I want to.

In the world of streaming devices the AppleTV is the only one I've used with no ads on the homescreen.

That's pretty neat, every city needs constant road work

Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
