Where To Buy ISO locally owned lingerie/bra boutiques

18 Upvotes

Looking to support local but also in a pinch.
Greta’s flair is reopening next month as a pre/post mastectomy specific bra shop (love that for them and the impact they are going to make 🫶)
Bliss bras have little variety in sizing / styles for an insanely marked up price and staff that don’t prioritize comfort during fittings.
Looking for G-J.

Can a girls girl help me out 😭

Question Dundurn and Main E memorial?

11 Upvotes

Currently transiting to my volunteer gig and just passed by this. Near the intersection of Dundurn and Main Street E there is a bright green RIP on the sidewalk and many bouquets of flowers laid out beside.

Does anyone know what happened there or who it is for? Apologies if this has already been asked or answered.

Where To Buy Reliable used bike store

11 Upvotes

Hello all, I have three boys 12, 11, 9 that are due for 'new' bikes. Up to this point, I have done my best to keep free bikes donated to use alive, but they are well beyond use and too small for them.

Is anyone aware of a spot that has a good price on reliable used bikes. I have browsed some new bikes, but to get three at those price points is currently not in my budget.

I figured end of season may help.

Thanks in advance.

Question DHL service point with an employee in it

5 Upvotes

I need to send some documents to Austria and I believe DHL is my best option. I visited three shops: one was closed, another said they didn’t handle DHL, and the third was a kiosk. I need to speak with a human to ensure I cover all customs fees so they don’t contact Vienna University for payment. Do you know of any actual DHL service points?

Request Hamilton Falls for the Elderly

0 Upvotes

Hi folks,

I tried doing some research here, but couldn’t quite figure it out.

My elderly parents are visiting and I’d like to take them to some of our beautiful waterfalls. Is there a path for cars that we can take - as it seems like walking might be a tad precarious. Also, can anyone recommend a fall that has a place to sit and grab a bite after?

Much appreciated!
TIA

Recommendations Needed Fun kids dance classes in Hamilton that aren't ballet

2 Upvotes

Avid reader of this thread but first time poster - and hoping you can help! I have a 5 year old kid who is interested in dance. I've looked through as many dance studios that I can find on google and can't find much in Hamilton that doesn't just focus on ballet, jazz, etc. I'm really looking for a high-energy class, maybe that teaches some routines, but mostly just gets kids moving. Definitely not looking to pay $100 for a recital costume. She's Brazilian and I'd love to find a class that has Brazilian / Latino music involved.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Food Best Napolean Cake in Hamilton

1 Upvotes

I’m searching for a bakery that makes napoleon cakes. I know Sweet Paradise does but they can’t decorate it the way I wanted it decorated. Looking for other recommendations for a good cake.

On the other hand, if anyone has had a napolean cake from Sweet Paradise lately and has a picture I’d love to see. Their Instagram doesn’t have many cake photos and they don’t have photos of their cakes at the bakery either.

TIA

Politics Removal of By-law Restrictions on Video Surveillance Equipment

Thumbnail
gallery
131 Upvotes

Amendment of the by-law will remove private video surveillance equipment from the definition of "excessive protective measures", requiring individuals to rely on provincial and federal privacy legislation and navigate the court system.

It makes sense to amend the by-law to suit its intended purpose, but not without another by-law in place to restrict invasive surveillance devices.

Have your say.
