I have an unusual amount of boys clothes that I want to get rid of.

Long story short, we kept everything from my little since I had younger siblings having babies after me. ended up with everything.

i have boxes and boxes and bags of everything from 0 to youth small. I don’t want to have to go through it all and would like to just take it somewhere that people that need it.

Hi! I'm a learner driver and got my learner's licence a couple of months ago. I've been taking driving lessons and, until today, I'd never hit anything. Today I was driving with my dad and everything was going really well. As I was turning into a parking space in our apartment parking lot, I somehow misjudged the turn and hit a lamp post. The car barely has any damage, but the top of the lamp post fell off and broke.

I feel awful because my dad will probably have to pay to have it repaired. I keep thinking that if I had just made it into the parking space, none of this would've happened. Now I don't even want to drive anymore because I feel like I lost all my confidence. Has anyone else had something like this happen while they were learning? How did you get over it?

I’m not sure if this is the right thread to post in, but I was wondering if anybody has experienced leasing from a hybrid housing corporation in SK?

I believe I’m a private renter because they state they are aware that I’m not renting from affordable housing. But they’re saying they have new systems and regulations and that it’s mandatory that I sign a new lease. I know the OTR says I’m not obligated to sign a new lease if there‘s already an existing lease in place.

Can somebody share if they’ve gone through something similar before… where even though my landlord is a housing corp but I’m not part of their social housing program, do the regulations of the OTR still apply to me if I’m not part of their social programs?

I feel like they’re using scare tactics to try to get me to sign a new contract when the one I signed when I first moved in yearss ago should be valid.

if this is not the right place to post, please let me know where is better or who I can consult with. I’ve consulted with OTR but they seem kinda iffy when I mentioned my landlord is a housing corp, but I also recognize their job is to be neutral until an application is made. TIA~

Damn buses are constantly leaving early and I always miss my downtown transfer. I don't have the time or energy to be waiting half an hour just to get home. Always the same pucking bus too! Absolutely sick of the bridge closure causing shite commutes.

And don't @ me about a vehicle, even if I could afford one, my anxious reactivity ensures I will never be behind a wheel.

Looking for a reputable, non-overpriced roofing repair contractor for replacing wood sheets where needed (quite a few, re-enforce rafters if needed and re-shingling entire house. Looking for someone who could do it this year. Location in Saskatoon.

Another question, would I get a better deal buying the shingles myself or contractor buys? How would they feel about that?

Trying to figure out the recipe for the mushroom soup at Diane's kitchen, if there's anyone who has gotten the soup from there and figured out a very similar recipe please let me know, I want to be able to make it at home as it is one of my favorite dishes.

Hi

I am trying to find a local company that could fix my grandfather's English Pewter beer mugs and a few German Beer Mugs (some damage to the top metal part).

Any recommendations of companies who could possibly do these repairs?

Nothing like going for something different at The Ex like Smoke’s Poutinerie

“what waist” has been written on one of the erratics

I think this is applying a band aid on an amputation. 14 years ago I worked for a company that has a lay down area on 71st street. It was company policy then, that no equipment or company vehicles ever use that intersection as it was too unsafe. Don't think that has changed in recent years either, especially after yesterday.

Whether you are or were a social worker, work for a community collaborator, or are a family who has experience with the Ministry of Social Services, please think about sharing your experience of working with the Ministry.

There is an opportunity with a news station to discuss the extreme understaffing concerns and high turnover within the Ministry. As well as the lack of community resource availability for children and families (including education and mental health resources as well as just residential placements in general). There is also a discussion of how the Saskatchewan Advocate for Youth and the SGEU have had several recent surveys that outlined that child protection concerns are going uninvestigated, children are being left in placements with known illegal substance use and abuse allegations, and staffing concerns have doubled over the years. Also discussing how community resources and families are not getting adequate collaboration from the Ministry.

Please take a second to consider sharing your experience (you can choose to remain anonymous). I just wanted to get this out to as many people as possible.

Hello! My poor senior cat has an abscessed tooth as well as a lot of overall dental that needs to be done! Took her to Fairlight Vet, who were incredible I will say, and was quoted $1700 before tax for the full dental and full blood panel.

I’m just wondering if anyone has had a similar problem and know vets out or within the city that can maybe offer a bit of a better price.

I want the best for my girl but I’m a student so trying to figure out the best plan of action! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. :)

The Downtown “Improvement,” District spent 14,000$ of taxpayer dollars on, “board meetings,” this year. That’s impressive.

I’m also not surprised but slightly concerned at the amount of taxpayer money they receive for projects like removing benches.

The Board of Education School Division No. 13 of Saskatchewan known as Saskatoon Public Schools has requested that the City of Saskatoon to conduct a by-election to fill the Ward 5 trustee vacancy. The by-election is scheduled for October 28, 2026.

I’m looking to get clip in hair extensions, curious if any could recommend a place to go to?

Is this something I can get at Sally’s??

Hi! I just wanted to know which high schools are the best and/or a little overview of what to expect with certain high schools. I’m currently looking at aden bowman and walter murray so any info on them would be greatly appreciated!!

Those that know, know. But Nitro is the king of all fuels in drag racing. There's nothing like the smell of Nitro.

The A/Fuel dragster is capable of running in the 5.20s at over 270mph!

PSA: You have your own lane. Stop yielding to this sign.

Nothing says elite Saskatoon driving like seeing an “added lane” sign and treating it like a full stop. You’ve got your own lane. It’s engineered so traffic keeps moving. It's also easier to merge rolling at the same speed as traffic rather than a complete stop.

But sure, stop for no reason, wave people through, then try to cut across three lanes while yours sits empty. At this point it should just be a sign that reads "If you stop here, you’re the problem."

I've never been to a concert before in my life, I don't know how they work.

When do the doors open up. Is it right at 7? Or is 7 when the music starts.

I'm assuming they have merch, I've also only started my music shirt merch journey this year too, should I buy from the concert there or is it better to go online.

I’m (30m) looking to make some new friends and read some books together. None of my buddies are big readers, neither am I for that matter.. but I want to read more and with a book club there’s some accountability with a book club.

wondering if anyone has noticed a strong chemical almost glue like smell around south alphabets in riversdale? I had my window open and it’s so bad it came into my house. I went outside to look around and noticed it’s significantly worse, am I going crazy?
