The value village at Erinmills has HANDS DOWN the most OUTRAGEOUS pricing of any thrift store I have ever been to. I am consistently appalled by their pricing. I have been back 4 separate times just to see if anything has changed but no, they price like new. So weird. Never had this issue with any other VV.

Looks like Mississauga Laird location has discontinued propane refills.

Can anyone confirm if its all Costco locations?

Where else can we refill propane tank for BBQ?

My buddy works on wharton way and had mentioned about Sacks Food before, but I decided to visit today. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much, but some of the prices were kind of ridiculous compared to regular grocery stores. I ended up grabbing a random mix of stuff for the freezer. They had boxes of chicken nuggets, popcorn chicken for around $4. It’s mostly frozen food and the packaging is sometimes random brands or characters, but for the price I really don’t care lol.
The place itself is pretty basic, definitely more of a factory outlet than a normal grocery store. Worth checking out if you’re already around Wharton Way

I am a resident of Mississauga’s Ward 7. I live in a one bedroom condo and am not overly concerned with tax rates. I understand that municipal elections are often, if not always centred on property tax rates.

The issue I think should be centred in municipal elections quality of life. I live on Webb Drive and have noticed a marked increase in people walking in recent years as the population of this area grows. However, walking in this area is very unpleasant and dangerous. Burnhamthorpe Road is like a highway running right through a high density part of the city where walkability should be the priority.

I know that Mississauga was farmland with a few villages that were amalgamated into a city which then allowed the space between those villages to be filled in with mostly single family home developments. Mississauga and the cities around it have grown over the decades leading to a car dependent set of suburbs around some high density nodes. This has led to congestion, noise, pollution, and the biggest and busiest highway in North America (401).

I often cross the street at Central Parkway and Confederation Parkway, and it is dangerous. We have leading pedestrian signals but drivers do not stop on red lights when making right turns putting the driver’s two ton car in conflict with a person walking. There is a church and a high school on that corner. This says everything about how much Mississauga cares about safety. Easy solution would be no right turn on red lights. You will immediately find that drivers will hate this because saving a minute whilst diving is much more important than saving lives.

For candidates: Are you aware of Vision Zero? Is it part of your campaign? I suggest it should be the cornerstone of your campaign as more people walk, are maimed, and die. The time will come, soon, when the residents of this area will demand greater safety for themselves and their children.

Few months back, I parked the car and paid money in the machine and the machine was out of paper to print the ticket.

I was ticketed and I raised the dispute.

Dispute say I need to pay money.

Its not that I cant pay 50$, but im upset even after paying money, the parking machine was not able to print the ticket and the dispute say im at fault.

Does it make sense to go to court and fight out or you guys say, just pay and forget about it?

Still trying to understand why people use a speaker phone a public transit bus. I really don’t want to know your conversation.

On two separate occasions travelling north bound across the queensway around cliff road, There was a young boy crossing at an intersection against the light. First last Friday around 6pm then again today around 8pm. Im pretty sure it was the same kid, maybe not. This time on a bike with a smaller kid on a non-motorized scooter and before with a scooter by themselves.

One shouldn’t have to explain that the queensway in the area is a 6 lane road with speeds upwards of 60kh. No one should be jaywalking, let alone kids unsupervised. If you have kids in this area and let them scoot around by themselves it’s time to have a chat. There are more than enough fatalities on our roads, we don’t need any more

I can’t go to the office because I don’t have anyone to go with (they have a rule that you can’t be there by yourself and basically no one comes in Fridays and everyone I have asked said they aren’t coming) so I need to figure something out since my provider can’t get a tech to come out until 5

Anyone else's power just go out for a few seconds?

I know these tickets are literally evaporating. The good seats are booked till Aug 20 right now.

If you're still waiting - check on Tuesdays and Thursdays. That's usually when shows and seats go up.

Happy hunting.

Hello,

I am looking for a private room to rent (shared washroom is okay). Is 1000 a realistic budget?

How can I find the right leads, any advice or help you have to offer will be really helpful :)

Can realtors help with finding rooms ?

Thanks for taking the time to answer!

As mentioned in another post with receipts, someone with access to the Peel website database has manipulated yellow pass data, but only for select establishments. One example is QJD Peking Duck, which had their January 2026 yellow pass inspection result changed to green in their history.

This type of data manipulation is dangerous to public health; I want to know if the place I'm eating at is actually clean, or has simply had their health history altered to say it is! That's why, in addition to this week's Naughty List, there will be a TWIST at the bottom.

The Naughty List

Bite and Diet (Kennedy Brampton) CRITICAL RISK hazardous food temperature danger zone, food contact surfaces not maintained both corrected during inspection July 21 yellow/conditional pass

REPEAT OFFENDERS Suyacity (Fieldgate Mississauga) CRITICAL RISK pests, SIGNIFICANT RISK food premises not operated in a sanitary manner, handwashing, food contact surfaces, bad housekeeping practices July 22, 2026 yellow/conditional pass

Inspected FIVE TIMES already this year, with lots of follow ups on the history, but no other yellow passes showing. Follow up inspection July 21, 2026 issued a green pass with SIGNIFICANT RISK hazardous food temperature danger zone

And now for the TWIST... The following were selected in order from the list of most recently inspected establishments (at the time of writing this) that were issued a green pass, despite having... issues. Remember, every one of these places has been issued a green pass!

Never trust the green pass in the window...

Check before you eat somewhere: Peel Public Health Website It's free and your taxes already pay for it, why not use it? Remember to click or tap the green pass to read what's hiding under it, you never know...

A large section of the field at Erindale park is fenced off and there seems to be some trail paving and what looks like pipe being laid out on the ground. I couldn’t find a sign or any info online about it. Anyone know what’s going on?
