I have just moved down from Anderson and my luck I'm having car trouble already. I drive a 1996 Jeep Cherokee XJ and I'm looking for someone that has a good reputation with these older jeeps. Looking for good, honest, doesn't need to have a fancy shop or comfy waiting room, just a guy really into jeeps. Thanks.
Wednesday 10/23/24 730pm (ish) at academy parking lot there were two men, one standing out front looked like he was homeless (maybe) and another man with a shopping bag that kept walking to his white utility van and the front of the store. I’m assuming they were together. They weren’t doing anything wrong, nothing illegal but I know that parking lot has had issues in the past and now I question everything. I decided not to turn off my car and walk inside. I would’ve had to walk in front of both men and I was worried about coming back to my car. I think I made the right choice but now I’m thinking I over reacted.
I’m fairly new here and I’m not sure how to go about this. Please spare me the rudeness and backlash. This is hard enough. I’ve had my cat for 3 years now and I just can’t take care of her the way she needs. She doesn’t get the proper attention or enrichment from me bc me and my bf work a lot. She deserves so much better and I’m not sure where to start. I feel like she’s depressed. Again I feel awful enough, please don’t make me feel worse.
Are there any events/areas with multiple food trucks in the csra?
i found this while looking for a new part-time job! I remember seeing something similar for tropical smoothie cafe months before it opened up!
Does anyone have experience with Viera Aiken and/or Colony at South Park apartments? I’m trying to decide on which one to pick. If you’ve lived in either of them, I’d appreciate feedback! Thanks
What’s up with all the security vehicles in the parking lot where the massage and mail place is across from Parker’s and Sam’s? I haven’t seen any new businesses there but every time I drive past, the parking lot is packed. Either the massage place is very “friendly” or the mail service at the postal service is incredible. Is there a new business/restaurant/something there?
Where can I meet people my age 30-40 in Aiken, Columbia, Augusta?
Hey all. Moving down for an equestrian job, and I would like to make some extra money in the evenings. Does anyone have any leads for decent serving jobs? I have experience in high volume establishments, good references, etc. Looking to start Nov 1. Thanks.
New to the area and would like to know the best restaurants in town.
Out at srs I know it means stay at home without pay until further notice, but does your cto and pto get used? Or is it like an extra unpaid protected time they provide?

Hi all, it's my marriage anniversary and I'm looking for a tasty restaurant that's open around the area to go to. Is there anything that may be open tonight that we could go eat at? Any suggestions on nice date night ideas in the area? (Probably going to cross post this to the other area subs if you see this a couple times)
any update on neighborhoods with power? ETA on when power will be back for most of the city?
Best to avoid the area
Does anyone know if the Walmart in Whickey Road is operating normally ? I need to go to money services center but wasn't sure if it's available .
Does anyone else use an off air antenna to receive local channels?
I've used one for years and up until a week or so ago, this was a few days before Helene
I was able to view the 6.* channels (6.1, 6.2, 6.3, etc.) but now they no longer show up.
I was thinking maybe Helene had taken out a tower or something, or even power issue
but this started even before then.
Just wondering if any one else is having a similar issue or if it's just me.
I know it's strange considering what we all have been through these past few days, but I am asking because my friends birthday is in a few days and she loves that vanilla candle from there. I want to do something nice for her during these rough times and make sure her birthday goes well! Any insight would be awesome and I greatly appreciate any response on the state of that area.
Anybody know of an open laundromat in the CSRA?
