    OT - Prom dress shopping help

    Thank you everyone! We found success at a David's Bridal in London. We had been down for a school tour of Brescia at Western, and we went there to have a look. What an amazing selection of prom dresses!!! It wasn't cheap (sigh!) and it needed alterations, so we are trucking back down in a...

    OT - Prom dress shopping help

    Hello ... we are looking for a prom dress for my daughter. She needs a plus size (18- 20), so that limits some of our options. I just wondered if anyone had good suggestions for where to go. We are in southern Ontario (about an hour a half north of the GTA). We've checked Laura Plus (or she...

    Help me decide my flight ... I'm indecisive

    We are flying from Buffalo. Staying overnight in a hotel there and heading to the airport via shuttle. The connection flies to Chicago and then leaves Chicago direct to Orlando. I had already booked the return flight MCO - BUF because the time was good and not too bad of a price considering...

    Thank you for everyone's thoughts ... it really did help me make my decision!! We (much to the disappointment of my daughters!)We are going to fly on the Saturday morning. I can't stress about getting there leading all the way up to the actual flight. So we are heading out at six am and...

    Help me decide my flight ... I'm indecisive

    No luck with asking for time off. We just aren’t allowed. I likely won’t have many away as we aren’t a high socioeconomic area. You are correct that we will have a low key afternoon for sure I’m leaning to the connecting flight, to my girls’ dismay. They’d like the night flight (but teens are...

    Help me decide my flight ... I'm indecisive

    I seriously wish I could. Lol ... even just the afternoon or changing around my planning time, but it isn’t allowed and I’d be asking for trouble. I think I will go with the 6am flight. I just really needed others’ opinions! My girls want me to go at night, but I know I’d be in a complete...

    Help me decide my flight ... I'm indecisive

    Ok ... I've booked my return flight, but not our flight going down. I am flying for March break (because I am a teacher) and am flying from Buffalo to Orlando. I live three hours from Buffalo. My quandry is this ... do I book a flight at 8:35pm on the Friday night (school dismisses at 3:10)...

    OT - eastern Canada

    Thank you for your replies ... I really had no idea how much there was to offer in each province! So I think my goal this year is to just see a couple of things ... mainly I'd like my girls to see the ocean. Despite going to Florida pretty much yearly, we have not made the trek to the ocean :o...

    OT - eastern Canada

    We are thinking of heading down east this summer for maybe 10 to 14 days. I'm not even sure where to begin. I have googled and found many, many driving trips and things to do, but there is so much it is overwhelming! At first we were thinking NS, NB and PEI, but now I am thinking we are being...

    OT - Pool Questions

    I don't know for sure, but when they came and cut our new cover it seemed like the bolts and straps were all part of the box it came in. Our old bolts had rusted and straps had ripped or fallen off, so it has all been replaced. (and for the next one I think I could do it myself! lol)

    OT - Pool Questions

    Hello ... I wanted to ask any pool owners for a bit of advice. We had an inground pool put in the summer of 2010. The dealer we ended up dealing with was recommended, but after having been through the process and hearing from others we ended up being very unhappy with the whole process and...

    Excited JetBlue

    Our dates (Sat. to Sat) of March break came up at $605 each - plus tax ... so that came to just over $4000 for six people! No way! One year we decided last minute on Christmas Day to book for the break and we paid $99 one way and $129 home! So you never know when random drops happen. Last...

    Windsor Hills condo vs. townhome

    We have rented condos two different times and we really liked them, but last March we rented a townhouse for the first time. We LOVED it! We are renting another townhouse this year when we go down again. The stairs didn't bother us - and the washer and dryer worked just fine. The girls loved...

    Chicago with the kids

    I have never been, but last summer we had thought we were going to get to Chicago so I'd searched on the Canadian boards (I am from Canada) and there is a really good thread on that board from someone who went and was offering advice to some others. So if you go to that board and search it...
