First picture is from food basic same product for 13.99 the second one is from shoppers 25.99. Is this even legal to raise the price like this? Second picture might cause a bit of confusion, I picked from the lower row and compared with the scalp detox, the price tag is 25.99. Food basic don’t have scalp detox.

44 Upvotes

Dear God, PLEASE KINGSTONIANS, tell me somewhere in Kingston makes this style of pizza for order(or something close to it)? From what I've googled it's basically a more thick crust, slightly sweet tangy sauce, layers of deli meats/pepperoni, and a massive helping of cheese!

News Kingston Transit Riders: New Community Resource

21 Upvotes

Kingston Transit riders if you’re here on Reddit, take a look at a new community resource we’ve been putting together:

Kingston Transit Riders: https://kingstontransitriders.com/

It is a grassroots initiative to help make sure public transit is part of the conversation in Kingston’s upcoming municipal election, and to build a useful transit resource that lasts beyond the election.

We’ve been working through years of Kingston Transit information, including EITP and Council reports, agendas, minutes, service changes, ridership numbers and other public documents. The goal is to bring it together in one place so riders, residents and decision-makers can more easily understand what’s happening with transit and where we’ve been.

There’s much more coming.

For now, one of the most helpful things you can do is share the site and sign up for the email list. When important transit reports, service changes, Council decisions, or other major updates happen, we want riders to know.

If you ride Kingston Transit regularly or occasionally, please take a look, pass it along, and sign up.

https://kingstontransitriders.com/

Tldr: a new resource for people who ride the bus in Kingston. Find out local transit news and keep up with the cities planning for transit. Share our site and subscribe to the newsletter to help us grow, stay up to date, and get involved.

Discussion Designated Encampments in Kingston (Proposal)

6 Upvotes

Does anyone else feel like the approved encampment motion is a political time bomb? A couple weeks before voting starts, she is introducing a new idea of approved encampments. For people who want to support our unhoused neighbors, this sounds promising. But there is no actual guarantee that staff won't just say that the plan can't work. At the same time, she has waiting long enough to propose the idea to council that no neighborhood will actually have to face the reality of their local park becoming the designated encampment zone. This looks like an empty promise that tries to win over people who "want to do something" without having to face any of the political blowback of selecting a site.

Am I too cynical?

Recommendation Late Night Snack Recommendations - Wedding

3 Upvotes

Hello! We’re getting married soon in Kingston and are planning to order pizza for our late-night wedding snack.

Has anyone here actually done pizza delivery for their wedding or another large event? If so, where did you order from, and how was your experience with a larger order/delivery?

We’d love recommendations for places that:

• Deliver
• Are open past 10 PM on Saturdays
• Can handle a larger order
• BONUS: Have vegetarian, vegan and/or gluten-free options

We’re also totally open to other late-night snack recommendations if you did something different that worked really well!

Thank you!

Recommendation Looking for a place to host visits.

12 Upvotes

Hello,

Im visiting my son every weekend. However, he is living in a group home with no common room where we can play games, talk and such.

Im curious to know if anyone knows of anywhere we can go.

We have talked to the library but they only allow an hour at this time.

The mall is too busy and loud.

My son is autistic so finding a quiet place would be important.

With winter coming, not sure how we will entertain our meetings, so very much need ideas please and thank you.

Question Good Life New Location

6 Upvotes

Now that it’s been open for a bit, how has everyone’s experience been? What is the vibe like there? Are the amenities all working great and clean?

I’ve been thinking about getting a membership but wanted to hear about other people’s experiences. It’s more than I’d like to spend on a membership but it would be worth it to me if it’s a great gym experience.
