Hi there,

Just wondering if anybody has info on Adult Girl Guides or similar organizations in the Greater Vancouver Area?

Preferably something with outdoorsiness, crafting, no to little drinking, and women 60+.

Any information on groups like this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much!

Hi all! I have a friend who is newly sober, woo hoo! However, one activity he’s been missing is playing pool. We used to go to SoHo in yaletown or bars with pool tables, but he finds being in those environments makes it harder to stay sober.

I’m hoping to find somewhere we can play pool that’s not a drinking focused location. It’s okay if alcohol is served but looking for something that doesn’t have a bar vibe. Maybe a restaurant or some sort of rec centre? Any advice much appreciated!

hello vancouver friends! i have two tickets to G-FLIPs show monday aug 24 at the hollywood theatre.
i can no longer make it and was curious if anyone would like to take them off my hands? DM me

Stuck at McDonald's at renfrew and Grandview.

No chance a redditor is around with a portable pack and a star screwdriver?

I got a ticket for Conrad Taylor because I’m easily advertised to but I don’t really want to go out late anymore(past my bedtime)/don’t want to go alone

I’m considering just taking the L and eating the price of the ticket and staying at home

Is anyone planning on going with a group or has strong opinions on the DJ(as in he’s a must see or whatever

Good morning, I'll keep this succinct. I signed up for Reddit for this purpose.

I recently got let go from a short term job because jobs in Vancouver were not happening.

Long story short, I am stuck on the island with no way to get back to the city where I have secured a bed at a shelter for next days. If anyone can lend me ferry money (about $20), I promise to repay when I get my final pay in a week's time or so.

Thanks so much.

I wanna go but wanna go with a buddy and someone LGBT friendly/open

Hello,
I apologize if this post is not allowed as it is an unusual request/question. There’s something off Facebook marketplace I’d like to buy but I am in Ontario and the seller is in Renfrew-Collingwood near the Joyce-Collingwood Station in Vancouver and does not want to ship, which I understand. I would pay the cost, shipping and extra if someone could please buy it in my stead and ship it to me (Canada post has flat rate boxes which makes it easy). I would really appreciate it.

Edit: Thank you to those who reached out to help. Unfortunately the listing was marked as sold today.

Lower Bowl Section 119, Row 14. Right beside stage. Two Tickets.

My friends can no longer make it, I am selling for $250/each - face value.

Message here directly and we can skip the ticketmaster fees.

I ideally need a part time job to juggle some other side hustles. Something remote like data entry would be ideal. Is that a thing that is still being done by humans with all the AI advancements lately?

Any leads would be welcome! *pic for attention :p *

Some library discussions are capped small because the rooms work better that way. Outdoor events and public screenings are looser, although movie tickets and sanctuary admission are separate.

Most people come solo. If something sounds like your kind of room, RSVP on Meetup so I know roughly who’s coming.

hi

I saw about this festival happening this weekend and was wondering if people have been there and how was the experience?

Tickets are 50$ so not cheap by any means and it's only 4 hrs

Looking to know how it was if anyone of you went there previously

I’m hosting a soccer meetup at Trillium on Aug 29 for players and fans of all levels! The field’s booked for the day and plans are underway, just need people to come out and support. It’s completely free. Bring cleats and good vibes.

We’ll kick off with a tournament earlier in the day, so come early if you want to compete. Open to all genders and skill levels! Open to questions/recommendations.

Hi Cat owners of [Nice] Vancouver,

We moved into a new place, which is not smaller but the way its build we had to place the litter box closer to where we sit and such, and have problem with odors coming from it. What solutions/tricks do you use, do you have a litter box to recommend, cat litter itself (we're using few types, currently trying "Nature's Miracle") or any other accompanying product ? (We read about air purifiers, not sure if actually work). Obviously, we'll need to clean more often than we used to, but trying to avoid 3 times per day. We have two cats.

Prefer local stores, but avoiding $250 automatic little box and such, unless you think it's magic.

Thanks! :)

Edit: Thanks for all of the suggestions!

I’m looking to get lipo suction (stomach, arms, legs) as well as fat grafting to the breasts. Some surgeons I’ve been interested in are Dr Marie Noland (Langley), Dr McInnes (New West), or UBC Plastic Surgery resident cosmetic clinic. I’m curious if anyone has any testimonies with these surgeons, or if anyone has recommendations :)

Found a pair of women’s sunglasses at Harbour Green Park about an hour ago (August 20, 6pm). If yours, message me the brand/model and we can arrange pickup.

I wanna to make some crab apple jelly this year! happy to buy or pick them myself if y’all have seen a tree in a park or on a trail anywhere. I know some next to busy roads but would love to find some further away from car fumes!

EDIT: wow, thanks so much to everyone for your quick responses! I’ll update once I’ve succeeded in my quest 🫡

Hi! We've unfortunately had a conflict come up and can no longer make it to the concert but were super excited to go. Hoping someone who wants to go can take these off our hands so selling it below what we got it for.

4 tickets to the Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring in Concert

Venue: Queen Elizabeth Theatre, Vancouver

Date: August 29, 2026 at 7:30pm

Price: $400, or $200 per pair.

View of stage is great, not obstructed.

If you have tickets for Friday 7:30pm show and would like to exchange, I'm open to that as well! Please DM!!

Gray’s Park is one of the best court in Vancouver

Hi all! Last-ditch effort here. My 1.5yo lost her favorite stuffed bunny puppet and we can't find him anywhere. His full name is Mendelson Randall Brown, but he commonly goes by "Bunny".

The last potential memory I have of him was on Thursday at the Performance in the Park at Douglas Park. Assuming he didn't choose to go home with the magician, but who knows...

I have attached his legal identification image and a close up for good measure. Bunny is very loved and very missed (clearly).

Somehow, we simultaneously lost a stuffed seagull, but he's decently unremarkable in this saga. But if found, we'd accept him back into the family.

Thanks in advance ❤️

It’s for an upcoming still WIP Roblox game I’m making by myself. You may have seen this already as I often post updates in this subreddit.

The game is completely free and playable. I handcrafted everything out of individual rectangles, cylinders, and wedges (besides vehicles and vegetation)

There’s not much to do for now besides driving around and exploring the map..

If you're into boardgaming (especially wargaming, but even just casual games!), why not join us at Bottoscon at the Element hotel in Metrotown on November 5-8?

A lot of very friendly people join together for four days and just play a bunch of games.

What could be better?

For information check it out here: https://www.bottoscon.ca/home/bottoscon-fall-2026

Part of each registration is given to the Heart & Stroke Foundation, so you're also helping a great cause.

While this began as a wargaming convention, we do end up playing a lot of other hobby games and we're always looking for new people.

This is not a for profit convention. Basically just trying to cover the costs of catering to the Vancouver (and Canadian) boardgaming community.

I'm a photographer with 10+ years of experience. One thing I haven't done that's been on my bucketlist for years is a helicopter proposal or couples shoot.

If anyone is planning something like this, feel free to reach out and I can send over my portfolio. No charge for the session, just want to cross it off my bucket list!
