I’m looking to change my tires to all-season, but I need somewhere that offers financing so I can make monthly payments

Anyone know of any good places?

Hey all,

So I was looking into changing my FWD car tires to all-season tires after a VERY CLOSE situation while driving in the snow. I was looking into costco tires in Westminster but the reviews are absolutely making me paranoid. Could anyone give any insight and share their experience if they went to costco tires?

Furthermore, if costco tires is as bad as they say, does anyone know of a place where they have reliable michelin tires and can also install them for you? Thanks

Howdy Neighbors!

I found this post outlining a recent similar situation in Broomfield but I was hoping to gather some more information and opinions specific to my situation (and Broomfield) before just paying the reduced points/fine offered on the ticket.

So the subject pretty much says it all. I was headed west down the hill on Dillon where it goes under 470 and the speed limited drops from 45 to 35. I was on my way to the dentist in Louisville (which I absolutely dread) so my mind was elsewhere. I was definitely speeding, but I was really surprised to hear I was going 57mph.

It's also a new sports car (mustang convertible w < 1000 miles). It has a ton of buttons, features, speed monitors, etc. that I'm not used to. Coming from an old F-150, I'm finding it's really easy to end up going faster than the speed limit. Still, I'm usually very good about maintaining my speed.

I have no idea where the motorcycle officer came from. I looked in my rear view mirror and he was suddenly just there. I haven't had a speeding ticket in over 25 years. I'm a 50 year old handicapped stay at home Dad.

So - The question is, am I better off to just pay the $218 fine and get 4 points (versus 6) and be done with it or should I actually show up for the arraignment, agree to plead guilty, and see if the DA will lower the points and/or raise the fine or maybe offer driving school? My primary concern is how this is going to affect my insurance.

What I DONT want to happen is to show up for the arraignment and end up getting the full 6 points.

Any input would be appreciated.

Edited - I'm willing to talk to a Lawyer. Any local recommendations would be appreciated.

Did anyone else happen to notice the cops staking out the Kings at 287 & Miramonte? Two cops were outside in the parking lot hiding between cars and one female cop standing at the door comparing folk faces to a photo on her phone. This would have been around 5:30p ish.

Anyone know what was going on? Haven’t been able to find any specifics.

Does anyone know what was up with the 8+ cop cars, ambulance and firetruck around 3 Monday? Didn’t see anything on the news.

Hey Folks,

I need my water shutoff valve feeding my sprinkler line replaced. Does anyone have any recommendations for decent plumbers or handymen that could tackle this for me?

So $10.50 per month if I DON'T use the city's service??? WTF? What could possibly be the justification for that?

I get a one time opt out fee, since I'm sure there's some poor lacky that's gonna have to go over a spreadsheet of who does and doesn't get a new trash can. Pay that person for that work. But a monthly fee to NOT use a service??

Hello lovely neighbors I thought i would jump on and seek out recommendations. Looking for help this season NOT here asking anyone for anything except information. Please don't attack me for posting already feeling lousy for needing to. I have been working part time which with my son's health even those hours are difficult. My partner was let go yesterday. We have three teenagers. I just don't want to disappoint them. Any information about programs that allow teenagers? Interested in a christmas meal. Guts me that I am here asking but maybe there are some ideas out there.

Thanks

Hi all, I am new to the area and wondering if there are any good local second-hand shops for snowboarding gear that you would recommend. A friend gave me his old board, and I am looking to get the basics (gear-wise) before going out to try out the board. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hello, my wife and I are planning on renting at Retreat at the Flatirons in January. As we will be using open parking, we were wondering if anyone has rented there and can provide some insight about the parking situation. Are there enough spots to find somewhere close to your unit to park your car? Additionally, any recommendations for apartments near the area are welcome. We are looking for 1BR apartments and trying to keep base rent under $1800. 

Hey, just checking to see if anyone has or manages a few cars on turo. Thanks

This has happened to me several times now where I’m on 136th heading east and the light will skip us multiple times even with a big line of cars. Super annoying. Has anyone else noticed this?

UPDATE: Mike called this morning and asked me for more details about it and said they’re going to send someone out there to check it out

We’re looking for one with experience with improving dog-cat dynamics, who uses force-free / positive reinforcement training.

Thanks in advance!

What’s with the rumors of tDa in Broomfield? Have any connections with the attempted kidnapping near Mountain View HS?

Hello, wondering if anyone has any suggestions on the best way to land a serving job in the Broomfield area? (Boulder and Denver as well) I know there is not a lot in Broomfield directly. I was looking on indeed and not finding a lot. Was wondering if it’s just a position that you do a lot of door to door walk ins to try and land a decent gig? Or if anyone knows of specific places/areas to avoid or places to check out. Moving in December but am just trying to make a plan. Thank you!

I am currently looking for a reputable full service lawn care who is able to mow, seed, fertilize, do annual maintenance & fertilizer, and do sprinkler maintenance as well. Any suggestions are appreciated!

I want to shop around for a better policy

I currently have State Farm and I’m wondering if I could get a cheaper policy somewhere else. My current policy is $180 a month.

Hi everyone. I'm going to try leading a geology tour/walkthrough of the rocks in the front range this Saturday, 10/26 at 11:30am at the NCAR trailhead. If you have ever wondered about the geological story behind the flatirons (and associated rocks), this could be for you! We'll learn how to identify different features in the rocks and make (guided) interpretations based on our observations. There's a lot to see in the rocks so I'll try to use them to illustrate some fundamental geology concepts :) If you're interested in coming, DM me so I can send a short primer that will significantly enhance your experience if you read it beforehand.

Disclaimer: My qualifications are being a recent geology graduate who recently moved to Boulder -- I'm not a professional or an expert, just a big enjoyer of cool rocks.

Edit: you need to get in touch with me before showing up

Any leads on a good home daycare for a toddler that is reasonably priced in Broomfield?

TIA!

I'm looking for a local CPA to handle taxes this year and going forward. I'd think any CPA should know this, but experience with filing for families with a special needs kid would be superb.

Seems like prime leaf peeping right now and looking to switch up my running location

Hello all,

I (28 yo M) just moved to Broomfield from Portland, Oregon. I am really missing surfing on the Oregon Coast. I heard there are some river waves in the area. Golden in particular is where I heard to look. I’m still struggling to find any pointers or anyone who can point me in the right direction. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you all!

We just moved to Broomfield and are looking for some local honey that isn't exorbitantly expensive. Where we came from, a local Romanian Orthodox church had bees and sold honey for 64oz for $25 and you could just pick it up at a little stall outside their church 24/7. The farmers markets we've been to have been crazy expensive, like $20 for 16oz. Anyone know where we can get some good, local, affordable honey?

Hello, Reddit!

I've accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior and am searching for a church that feels like home for my biracial family.

I've visited a couple of churches but had some uncomfortable experiences. One had great music but felt too homogeneous. The second church initially seemed great, but during my last visit, the pastor’s focus on abortion prevention and dismissive comments about the LGBTQ+ community made me feel uneasy.

Are these experiences typical in churches? I'm hoping to find a congregation that emphasizes Jesus' love and acceptance. Any recommendations for inclusive churches would be greatly appreciated!

Hi all,

We are a family of six (couple + 4) relocating to the U.S. and looking for a 4-5 bedroom house in Broomfield for a long-term lease (3 years). Since we've never lived in the U.S., we don’t have a bank account yet let alone a credit score.

We both work in tech (I own a business, and my spouse works remotely), and we have a stable comfortable income. We’re happy to pay 3-6 months of rent in advance to accommodate any concerns. We want to arrive in Jan/Feb of 2025.

We’d prefer an unfurnished, spacious, and modern home so we can make it our own (otherwise we would have to go to Furnished Finder and the like). If you’re either a homeowner or realtor that can verify with home owners their potential willingness, please reach out!

If you have any advice, I'd be happy to hear.

Debating a hybrid job in Denver and would prefer not to have to drive since I imagine traffic going there and coming back is a nightmare (correct me if I’m wrong). Does anyone take the bus? How is that? Or any other recommendations?
