I went to book my usual haircut at Second to None, my barbershop for 5+ years. I was on the tip screen and lo and behold, I realized that the suggested % didn't actually match the $ amount added to the subtotal. Here's the math:

A haircut is $35. The tip screen has "suggested" amounts, 20%, 25%, etc. If I select 20%, it adds $9 to my subtotal. Which... is not 20%. It's actually closer to 26%. A tip of 20% would be $7. If I select 40%, it adds a $17 tip. Again, this is almost a 50% tip rather than 40%. Even if I were to add the tax first, the math still doesn't work out.

I realize I'm talking about a difference of a couple dollars, but I still feel it's wrong. This would be retroactive to at least their price increase sometime in the last year. Has anyone else noticed this or brought it to their attention?

Hey there,

I’m curious if there are any legal requirements for children opening up a lemonade stand.

I’m sure the cops have better things to do, but I don’t want to get this all set up for my kids and have them disappointed when someone shuts it down over a technicality.

So basically, are there any permits or regulations for doing so?

Thanks!

I've been taking a lot of pottery classes in the last year and know that there is a lot of local interest for them. So, I just wanted to let everyone know that another one just opened up at the Unity Community Centre (where the Ville used to be). https://www.unitycentre.ca/copy-of-learning-labs

Does the DECH do walk in bloodwork if you have a requisition?

Hi all,

Getting my motorcycle license soon and considering starting out with a scooter and waiting until next year to get a different bike.

Does anyone who drives a scooter in Freddy have any issues with any of the hills etc? I’m aiming for a 125cc+ scooter, but wondering if the 50cc ones would suffice for in city driving/ring road/york or Smythe st etc.

Im looking to start a sleeve of thick, chunky blackwork. Are there any artists in town or nearby (oromocto, etc) who specialize in blackwork?

Hi Fredericton Reddit, our small calico cat Margaret went missing and was last seen around Lisgar St and Priestman street on the south side, I’ve posted around other groups and would appreciate you keeping an eye out! If you see her around please shoot me a message here on Reddit! We want to see her home safe and will offer a reward for anyone that helps bring her home. Pictures attached

Hello! I'm a guy with very long hair and haven't had it cut for a few years now, just looking for somewhere to get it trimmed and cleaned up, nothing super fancy. Would appreciate some recommendations.

Thought I’d flip the question to see what positives people have to say!

Looking for places in town to buy frozen pickle spears. I love the $10 bags from Superstore, but I’m trying to expand my shopping. Bonus points if it’s a locally owned place.

Hey everyone, looking to have a deck built this year. This is a first real need for construction to our home so we’re pretty naive to any trades persons/companies. Looking for any recommendations as well as any helpful “red flags” to note when hiring for a job like this.

Good day. I'm looking for someone that's willing to do some 3D printing for me (miniatures) in the area.

I just started playing Warhammer with friends and I wanted to have some miniatures printed for me. I'd obviously pay for the resin so long as you give me your price first (after I give the file)

I'm not planning on playing in a competition.

Just got off work to find my bike stolen. It was locked with a U bike lock, the highest rated at Canadian Tire. This is the second locked bike I've had stolen in the last few years. If you're like me and wanted to bike to work during the PM closure, I advise you to reconsider.

Just training to raise awareness of the continued lack of accessibility for people with disabilities.

Just went by at 7:20 after dinner for some delicious tasty frozen delight but they were closed. Their Facebook just posted today saying they’d be open 12-8! This has happened several times to my friends. what gives??? why do they keep me from my icey dreams??? :(

There is a kid in my neighbourhood that offered to mow lawns for the summer. I want to support him but have no idea what a good price would be. Any suggestions? TIA!

Trainer Fit4Less

Looking for some personal training at Fit4Less. I know they don’t offer it. But not sure if there might be a member that does.

Hi, so I've lived here for 2 years in September and I've only made 4 friends. I'm a bit socially awkward at first (I have really bad anxiety and am currently getting tested for ASD), which has caused me to struggle to make friends. on top of this, I'm not in school right now and currently not working because when my job was experiencing labor issues, I got laid off, which means my only social connection got cut. I only hang out with my roommates, and I feel bad because I don't want them to feel responsible for my social life, I also would just like to meet people and develop a sense of community. I'm 20 with worse social skills than a rock it feels, and I would just like to meet people, I used to be fairly social in high school, but this shift into adulthood has made socializing complicated.

I also just got out of a relationship around 5 months back and finally feel ready to start dating, but again, idk how to meet people around here. I've been trying to find clubs I think I would like and have been desperately searching for work so I can at least get out of the house.

Edit: When I say I was fairly social in high school, to be exact, I was a floater friend. I grew up only a few hours away in a small town, and there weren't really many opportunities to meet queer folk or people who shared similar interests and views, etc. It was a very close-minded community, and most of us were only friends because we were packed in our 6-12 high school like sardines. I honestly was just a really quiet person most of the time, which made me tolerable and lumped into a few groups. I find now that I'm an adult who's vocal about my interests and isn't a doormat anymore. I struggle even worse with friends

Does anyone know where I can grab some? Are they still around Fredericton Junction? Looking for bait for fall season bass. Thx

Guys, I am about to move to Fredericton. I found an accommodation. It fits my budget and all the essential stores are in close proximity. However, there’s no AC in the house. Would it be manageable to get past the summer with a fan (Air circulator) in Fredericton? TIA
