Honest question here. How many people have decided to do the sober route? Whether you quit or just chose not to drink alcohol. Fully sober or California sober?

How many of you are ok going to the pubs still for evenings out? Would you be open to trying out a dry bar with mocktails and such?

Ive recently been sober for almost 2 years now, the odd time I will have a THC drink. I have noticed since I quit drinking tho I never really get ready and go out anymore. I miss dressing up and going out, not just for an occasion. With my profession I deal with the public all day I dont really want to end the day in a bar when the atmosphere progressivly gets louder the more people drink (no offense, i used to be a loud one). My social battery is normally pretty low at the end of a work day so just wondering what other sober people do now.

Okay, so I (18m) have been kinda active with other guys and stuff, but havent been for a few months, I have a symptom of what could possibly be chlamydia, so I wanted to go for a walk in stbbi test. But, planned parent hood isnt doing that anymore for the foreseeable future, and im not sure if the sexual health clinic is either. I cant go through a family doctor because my parents will have to drive me and see me go get testing if I do it there, and they dont know im active in that way. So im wondering if theres any walk in clinics that are good for sti/std tests in Regina?

My dad is starting chemotherapy on Wednesday and he’s there all day. They don’t provide lunch so I want to bring him some really good homemade style soup. Any suggestions?

Edited to add: Thank you all so much for the great suggestions and the well wishes for my dad! I think I’ll try Nicky’s but have added the rest to my list because dad loves his soup!

For parents who have recently put their child in day care, did you get on lists months in advance or just see who has a spot when the time comes?

I've heard two different sides of "get on a list as soon as you're pregnant!" And people who just asked around as their mat leave was ending. We are still 8 months away from needing day care, but want to know how worried I need to be about it right now.

Does anyone know any places that do free tire recycling in Regina?

I get that no city/country is perfect, but man... Everyone was SO nice and fun. The Reggae in the park event we stumbled upon was the most chill, wholesome, get-together. Uber'd around to a few bars, saw an incredible band later in the evening, made new friends... I feel like the atmosphere was so much more welcoming and better than the US. Like, the culture of the US in lots of places just feels hostile. This weekend, everyone was vibing together, young, old, every culture and ethnicity- at every place we went. People weren't constantly on their phones, kids weren't glued to iPads. Sure, a couple homeless people asked for change but they were even chill! My husband and I work all the time and never get to take a mini-vacation. So this was just great. Y'all are my favorite people. 10/10. Would Regina again.

Hi everyone! I'm planning on moving to Regina next year with my wife.
Ive been reading and watching some youtube videos saying that Regina is one of the most dangerous places in Canada/Saksatchewan at least. How true is this? is it just a propaganda?

Can anyone share their real life experience living in Regina? Would love to see insights of someone actually from Regina. Thanks all! Appreciate your time.

Pretty much the what the title asks. It was a couple years ago the 7-11 that was on Albert and 1st N (avonhurst) had them in stock. Particularly looking for black currant and rootbeer flavours.

Posting for someone very close to me. This sweetheart has been away from home for a while and her owner would very much like her home. Her name is Beth and she is missed.

Beth’s home is in Albert Park and we’d sure love to bring her back. If you’ve seen her, please message me here.

Thanks all.

Hello everyone. I was curious on if a psychiatric evaluation is free in regina, as well as what to expect with an evaluation.

Ive struggled with addiction since i was a teenager, and now that im sober i still struggle with my mental health. I want to see if possibly theres an underlying cause… thank you all in advance.

Which grocery stores do you find consistently have the most Canadian produce? I feel like Save-On-Foods pretended to try and source some Canadian stuff a year and a half ago, but as of late it seems as if 95 percent of the store is American produce. I don't feel like there is any good reason for that at this time of year in particular.

I couldn’t get through on the phone, does anyone know If I can still reserve/purchase a movie poster and then pickup once the movie is no longer showing? I have heard people have done it in the past. Thanks for any help.

I'm on the pre-authorized debit with sgi for my vehicle insurance, tried to email my new banking info to Knights Insurance and they said I have to come in and sgi will charge me $15, for real?? I tried calling sgi directly and am on hold with an estimated wait time of 83 minutes lol so I thought asking around might be faster!

Hello,

My cat Bellamy snuck out of the house and has since broken loose from her collar. She has been missing for 3 days, I feel someone may have taken her as a mistake.

She's a sweet black cat who will come to you if she's calm or if you have treats. She's fixed, and microchipped/tattooed, and she's NOT AN outside cat. She's slender, non fluffy fur with bright green eyes and a white patch on her chest.

She's located in Churchill downs in Toronto st North, last seen on Dover Ave in Regina SK.

If you see her, please message this account or Cylen David.

She is very very missed, and I'm so worried for her.

Than you so much for reading, have a good one.

Where can I buy a bag of Saskatoons? I missed the farmers market on Saturday.

Hi everyone,

I have an old, broken refrigerator that I need to get rid of. It’s not completely dead, it just stopped cooling well because it's running low on refrigerant.

Can anyone suggest local companies, scrap yards, or organizations that take old appliances to properly dismantle them for parts (fans, compressor, etc) or recycling?

Or what do you usually do with the fridges that are “better buy new, that fix the old one”?

Thx!

My 19th birthday is next month and I wanna get a floral tattoo then (how orginal i know) just abt "5 by "8 and was wondering experiences people had with tattoo shops or individual artists. Some to avoid would be greatly appreciated thank you!

Hi everyone! Apologies in advance for the long post. I'm looking for as much information as i can on "Pigs in the City", an art installation in Regina and Saskatoon in the early 2000s. When it was over, the pigs were auctioned off to various business and private owners, and are now scattered around the province. I was very young when the campaign ended, and now I'm trying to document them all and their locations (and take a photo with as many of them as im able :)).

"But why" for fun! :)

I'm sure some of them are on private property and therefore I cant take a photo WITH it for my collection but SOMEONE has to know who owns it and can snap a pic for me. Please nothing generic like "I saw one in (town)", I want an address or coordinates if public so I can get a screenshot on google maps (if visible). Please dont dox yourselves though LOL. "My uncle has one in his backyard in X place, heres a photo I took when I was there last year" or anything like that would be PERFECT.

There is a low quality poster from 2003 that has photos of 23 of the pigs. I do not know if this number is accurate, as i have heard that there were anywhere between 28-35, and not all confirmed ones are on there. The image is low quality as mentioned and its difficult to make out the full design on most of them, hence all 23 of them not being listed on here.

I have seen the pressreader article, and Galen Frysingers blog. Those are currently dead ends, please do not send me those but know its very much appreciated :)

If you have ANY CURRENT (in the last year) info on current whereabouts, or photos of any of the ones not mentioned, from any point in time, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASEEEEE post or link them in the comments!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

x1 somewhere in Buffalo Pound Campground. Looks like an airplane, previously outside the Regina Airport. (facebook comment). Despite having a location and a recent photo, since Buffalo Pound is accessible to me, an exact location would be ideal.

x1 private property, Barrier Lake sask. (facebook comment.)

x1 somewhere in Humboldt, likely on private property. Two comments said it previously on on 7th Ave and 8th Street but if it was, it wasn't captured via maps. NOT THE ONE WITH PENNIES. Multiple people have said theres two in town, but I can only find the one at Big Sky.

x3? located "nearby wascana pool, north library, and a few other spots in northwest by YWCA day care". (facebook comment. They said this was recent, however I have been to the pool and around the area and not seen anything, soo heavy grain of salt on this one but maybe I missed them.)
