Bump and Split
New York Times: People have predicted the death of cash and checks for a long time. But there are certain transactions — like paying a friend back for dinner or buying vegetables at the farmers’ market — for which they remain essential.

100% Custom Boardshorts
Springwise: Shortomatic is a California-based company that invites consumers to upload their own art for a truly customised swim.

Craft Beer
Beyond Robson: Vancouver has a new connoisseur – the craft beer drinker.
