If you can't find it locally, both amazon and Walmart.ca carry it

(edit: on amazon it has to be ordered as an add-on)

They expanded the imported aisle at Superstore in Deerfoot meadows. Looking online they have the mayo but not the agar agar. But you might want to double check as it's only been up for a couple of weeks.

Maybe the A-Mart on Macleod Trail?

Thanks for the advice. I'm very picky about the desk that I want, so I ended up buying from a supplier directly (Bestar) and saved a few hundred compared to Staples.

I need a new glasses prescription/eye exam. I'd like to get it somewhere that will measure the pupil distance and put it on the script (or tell me).

If Hesla can't do it, he should know where to send you?

Realistically, any optometrist (or even optician) should be able to, but many don't like to, since the only reason you're doing so is to go buy frames and lenses online.

That's like when I ask for a printout of my script: "but wait! You can get contacts here too! Let me show you this printout that proves we're as cheap as Clearly Contacts! please give me money"

It's not hard to measure it yourself. I did, and haven't noticed any issue with my glasses. Most of the online order sites tell you how to do it.

More of a sell, but anyone have a recommendation for a good place to sell gold jewellery? Just a ring, but brand new and probably worth a few hundred.

That looks like one of those unflattering photos that the Calgary Sun would use of Mayor Nenshi.

Right. I was hoping to get someone who isn't going to hassle me about it.

Anyone have a line on fresh ground bison? Co-op stopped stocking it. They have frozen but at a ridiculous price.

Bought a number of desks/office furniture from STOR over the years. Really good pricing!

If you have a copy of your old prescriptions, just check if it's on there.

I wanted to know the same thing and just asked about my old prescription at the optical store. When they pulled it up I saw it on the screen and burned it into my memory forever.
