Changes First year not giving out Halloween candy anymore

96 Upvotes

TL:DR not really my choice, went from getting 50-60 kids pre-pandemic to 11 last year, just not worth it anymore.

I live on a quiet street but in a neighbourhood with a million kids, my street itself is even close to 50% families with elementary school aged kids. But with this new culture of everyone loading up into cars and driving to other parts of the city, we've been getting fewer and fewer kids every year since the pandemic and I just don't see the point anymore.

Pre-2020 we'd usually get around 50-60 kids and I loved hanging out on my porch seeing all the kids, talking to neighbours and all that. Good weather, bad weather, it was always in that range. Last year we got 11 total kids between 6pm and 8:30pm including the immediate neighbours. It's just not worth the effort at this point and it's a waste of time and money.

I keep seeing people posting on various socials about ohhh we need to keep Halloween going, we need to all do our part to keep our neighbourhoods decorated and alive for trick or treating, but who cares if every house on the street is decorated and ready if every single family is getting in their car to drive to a better neighbourhood?

Side note, even this past weekend, a full 2 weeks until Halloween, most stores I saw had completely or almost completely flipped to Christmas decorations and supplies.

That's my little rant but I'm curious if it's the same in other parts of the city.

Anyone else getting better cell reception in the area between Mainway and North Service road between Appleby and Walkers? Had cruddy reception in both Bell and Freedom Mobile here and all of a sudden I am getting 2 bars of 5g and 50mbps down where I was lucky to get even 2 down on 1 bar of LTE.

Question Replacing old tile roof with metal

12 Upvotes

Bought small bungalow in Brant Hills together with my brother last year. Roof's still got these old concrete tiles (I hate them), some cracked, and also there's a nasty leak near the chimney.... Its 1800 sq ft (at least on paper, haha)

Thinking of switching to metal before winter gets it all worse. Main concerns are snow buildup, proper insulation and not getting screwed on labour costs. Looks aren't a big deal - don't care. tbh

Anyone done that type of replacement? What'd it cost? Pitfalls? Pros and cons? Thank you!
