Featured comments:
- First, I totally understand downsizing and the emotions that come with it. For the mink coat, FB Marketplace or there's a new place to buy higher-end items called Opulence. In your favor, vintage fur is trendy right now. Some online sites I buy (and sell) on are Poshmark and DePop. Keep in mind, even if buying new is very expensive, you won't get near resale, especially if they're outdated styles (80 (9)

Original English title:Primitive Skills
Post summary:Anyone interested in learning primitive skills (shelter, fire, water, food)? I don't see much about them in Thunder Bay, but it's definitely a lifetime insurance. I learned and practiced a lot back then and wouldn't mind sharing (not for money, small groups pay a few bucks to cover materials type of thing), especially in the world we live in, who knows what will happen. Maybe organize something when the snow melts at George Burke. I'm trying to gauge interest.

Post content summary:Look, I'm all for not paying commissions to sell your house. I get it. But ifind plays too badly with people. You post "coming soon"... post 7 photos with no price, and post a month before the full listing, and say "don't contact the seller", then 1-2 weeks later post "sold before listing". I swear I understand what they're trying to do, but this feels unethical? Maybe there's a better word idk. It's extremely difficult to find a decent house. Imagine having a budget of nearly a million dollars and not being able to
