The couple used Facebook Marketplace to buy most of the furniture and they only spent $1,900. We did most of the work ourselves and only did what was necessaryWe decided to renovate the AirBnB space mostly on our own and with friends to save labor costs. We found a new toilet and pedestal sink on Facebook Marketplace and just had to pay the plumber for installation. In order to keep the costs low, we sourced most of the items from Facebook Marketplace. You can do it without spending too much money, just get creative, and source decor from second-hand shops or Facebook Marketplace.

☆ Dispensaries selling illegal magic mushrooms in Vancouver could lead to the legalization of the substance, like they did with cannabis, shop keeper says

He's trying to push Vancouver to manage or legalize it, as cannabis sellers did in 2015. Larsen told the Vancouver Sun that Canada would not have legalized cannabis without store owners like himself, who sold cannabis before it was legal. Now, he's betting that selling the substance will push the government to go ahead and make it legal. Canada legalized cannabis in October 2018, but the illegal or semi-illegal market in Vancouver persisted, especially because of licensing issues. As of November, there were multiple stores openly selling mushrooms in the city, in one case as a way of making up lost pandemic revenue, according to the Daily Hive Vancouver.
