Looking to meet some new people and try and get myself out there to be less introverted. Don't know where to start 🤔
Does anyone know where I can buy a slab of sushi grade tuna and salmon? From a store or a restaurant
Tickets available! Let me know if interested.
As the title says. Yes. I am one of those weirdos who puts their cats on a leash. It helps them to stay relatively chill and it’s somewhat active. It should be more so, but half the time they just ride on my back.
Mainly hoping to hear from people who work at the places they recommend or have been inside the store with a leashed pet, so I don’t have to embarrass myself with the “but someone on the internet said it was okay” as often, but ik I will face it
“Just look it up” yeah well I tried that before, but Home Depot was the first one on that list and the HD in Tuscaloosa kicked me out when I lived over there and tried it so.. real life people answering would be nice lol
Hi all, I’m in need of someone to help put up a large wreath on my mom’s house. My dad passed away unexpectedly this summer, and I am trying desperately to make the house feel festive to help get my mom through what is already a tough holiday season. She always loved this wreath above the front door, and I’ve already attempted to hang it, but it requires climbing off the ladder and onto the balcony, and I’m just not confident that high up on a ladder.
Basically need someone who is very comfortable on an extension ladder and can get up onto a Juliet balcony to put this big wreath up and plug it in. We have a ladder, but you are certainly welcome to bring your own if you’re more comfortable. Including a photo for reference - the wreath is hunt from the bannister I have circled, and there is no indoor access to that balcony. We will want you to return the first week of January to take it down.
If you or someone you know can do this, please DM me with what you believe is a fair pay for this task. I don’t imagine it takes more than 15-20 min. House is located in Indian Springs.
Thank you!
I’m needing to take my dog to a vet and am wondering if there are any affordable ones with maybe free first visits? Anyone have any suggestions?
I know Home Depot, Lowe’s, Best Buy, etc, but I see that we have some more appliance outlet-like stores in the area. Has anyone used one of these with good success? Or any to avoid? Need at least a dryer rather quickly.
Hi, does anyone have a small Christmas tree they want to get rid of? I wanted to finally buy one this but can’t afford to spend extra money right now. Would really appreciate it!
Hello all! As the title suggests I’m searching for a small breed dog to bring into my home. My 15yr old Pom Pom passed away January of this year and I’m finally ready to be dog mom again. I do not mind paying a rehoming fee. Also the dog does not have to be purebred nor necessarily have to be a pup but I would prefer under 2yrs old.
SN: I’ve been checking the GBHS over the last month and they rarely have small breeds so I’m looking for other options
Is anyone getting rid of a couch preferably free! I will drive anywhere to pick up!
Where are the popular or frequently used dog parks? Looking to meet some cool pet owners.
I need a ferocious employment attorney. Who do you recommend?
Does anyone have a photo or link to a photo of the stone horse statues atop the staircase at the summit? I haven't been there since 2005 and can't find any record of them, though I remember them well. Thank you!
As the title says, I'm moving cross country to Birmingham! I'm super excited! But this is my first time moving across the country and my biggest concern is finding adequate medical care. Of course I need to find a GP then I also need to find a couple specialists for various ailments. I hope this sort of post is allowed here.
A few of my medications are controlled then others I need daily or I will fall will. I'm going back to school at UAB, so it's really important that I start of the new semester with access to my meds.
I have great insurance with Blue Cross Blue Shield, so I don't think that will be an issue. In addition to a PCP, if anyone has an recommendations for a sleep specialist/pulmonologist (for narcolepsy), mental health clinic that deals with ketamine therapy and rheumatologist (for chronic pain).
Any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance! And I'll see yall in January!
Coming home to Bham for the holidays (Dec 22-28) and I was sadden by the lack of concerts or really anything going on at this time. Also now scrambling to find things to do with my parents and my SO who’s never been to AL before.
Does anyone have any good suggestions?
I typically did the AL theater, favorite restaurants/bars, and a concert for the past years, but the only showing I’ll be in town for the AL Theater is sold out :(
We’re in our mid 20s, not really big country music fans, and no kids so trying to find something that could work.
(Also HMU if you know of anyone selling a few tickets for Christmas Vacation showing).
Hello! I’ve posted before, but it’s been a few months and I would love have more local clients!
I have 2 years of bookkeeping experience working for a company, and have begun to freelance within these last few months. I’m most familiar with Oracle and Quickbooks Online.
I’m available to do the following:
I have some limited experience with Payroll and taxes as well! Please let me know if you or any other local/small businesses are in need of a bookkeeper. I charge hourly (35/hr). Thanks for reading!
Please only message me if you’re looking to become a client or know someone who needs a bookkeeper!
Hi everyone! I’m turning 30 this month and am wanting to do something to celebrate. Does anyone have a recommendation for a cool restaurant to go to? Like good drinks/vibes. Or any place that would be to go to do something. Top golf is so expensive, so probs not that.
Has anyone ever rented from Atlas Rental Property?

Looking to replace my 2011 Tacoma’s entertainment head unit from OEM (AM/FM, CD changer) to something aftermarket that’s more modern (i.e. Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth, touchscreen, etc.) for Xmas.

Look for an umbrella (or two) on the table if you're unsure which group is us.
Monday Night is a restaurant (no outside food, but they recently revamped the menu and it’s good!) and we’ll be inside for the cooler months (dogs gotta stay home 🥺).

Any restaurant recommendations for a young man turning 18, in Birmingham or the metro area?
