New gas station with drive thru?

Anyone know what gas station and drive thru is opening up next to the new Starbucks off the 99 / Elk Grove Blvd exit?

Wife thinks it might be Wendy’s inside the gas station.

Car tinting recommendations

Hey everyone! Anyone know of a good place/shop for car tinting in EG? Been thinking of having my car tinted for quite some time now, also wondering how much they usually cost.

Thanks in advance!

Anyone know what's going on? I can hear them saying stuff over the loudspeaker but can't make out what they're specifically saying.

Little Brazil/Fogão Gaúcho

So with an impending opening, I just wanted to know: does anyone have a read or inside info on what exactly is happening here? The decor looks significantly upgraded. Much more in line with what I see at more traditional/chain Brazilian Steakhouses. Before it was a much more casual vibe.

I know that the Cafe next door bought out what used to be a sort of market space? Then after that I stopped seeing the head chef at all. Then came the shutdown.

I hope they use a lot of the same recipes and especially keep similar prices. Although it could add up, it really was some of the most affordable of its kind in the city, and the ONLY place I could sate my picanha craving without trimming and cooking it myself.

Anyone in this sub work at Laguna Creek High School?

Per the title, I'm looking for someone that works at Laguna Creek High that could put me in contact with faculty for the STEM/GETA program there. Both my kids graduated from Laguna and my daughter was in the robotics club and my son was in the GETA program. If you are, or know someone who works there, can you send me a DM? I have a question for you. Shouldn't take more than a couple back and forth messages tops.

Beyond thankful for you - this morning at Kohls

To the two angels this morning who blessed us more than words could say. Because of your extreme generosity my little one is over the moon. This year has been hard to say the least and we had already talked about how this year wouldn’t be like years past. I’ve been doing everything I can just to get groceries so Christmas was on the back burner. My little one who 100% believes in Santa is convinced you were his helpers bringing an early Christmas and hasn’t stopped talking about it since we got home. It’s lifted stress off of me since now Santa isn’t expected to bring anything Christmas morning. Thank you isn’t enough but it’s all I can do. Hopefully you see this and I pray you are blessed 10x over.

Roofer suggestions

I have an insurance claim in for my home (possible damage to roof during the heavy rains last week) but I need to find a roofer to get an inspection/estimate from for my insurance company. Yes, I shouldn't have to do this, they should, but they cannot find anyone in the area.

Any fully legit roofer recommendations? Not your brother, cousin or your kid that put a roof on your doghouse. A fully licensed and bonded roofer or roofing company. They need to work with my insurance company, so I need someone legit.

Help Finding Providers

Hey all! I have a young adult in the Elk Grove area who needs to establish care with a gynecologist. She is extremely shy and needs a practice that is slow, patient and kind with education about changes in the body.

Does anyone have a suggestion for a gynecologist in the area? Health insurance is TriCare Select so we’re not really limited.

New Mansion on Bilby & Willard

Does anyone know who lives on the corner of Bilby and Willard?? I pass by this huge house all the time coming home from work. It looks like it was recently completed a few weeks ago.

Why are the lights so bright at the new Safeway?

Sry for the potentially dumb question lol. I went to the new Safeway on Bruceville for the first time and was surprised by the brightness of the overhead lights. My eyes are super sensitive, so it might just be me. Wondering if anyone else noticed this?

3d Printer

I'm posting to see if anyone knows if there are any local schools in need of a 3d printer. I have an Ender 3 Pro that I'm looking to donate to a school or after school program as I no longer need it because I'm upgrading to a whole different printer.

If anyone has any other suggestions, I'm open to them, as long as it benefits students.

La Favorita EG Blvd?

When did La Favorita on Elk Grove Blvd become La Fiesta Alteña? Is this place any good? La Fav’s food was great. Why did it change/close? I’m bummed. Now I’ll need to drive to Florin Rd for La Fav.

Someone damaged my garage door

I live in stonelake community and someone (probably some kids) kicked my garage door and severely damaged it and ran away. Not sure if this only happened to me or it's wide spread. 😭

Brake pad replacement!

Shot in the dark here, but does anyone possibly know how to change brake pads on a car? I have the pads I just would rather not spend 200-300 trying to change them at a tire place.

Rain and Insects and Parasites

All this rain is making the insects going nuts. We are seeing piles of dead "German" cockroaches around the perimeter of our house. Those are the worst kinds of roaches, the disease carrying one. So glad we had pest control company come out to spray just couple weeks ago.

fitness group classes recommendations?

I tried Orange Theory and while I enjoyed it, it's not within my budget. Looking for gym studios that offer cardio and strength group classes with morning (5AM-ish) and evening schedules (7PM-ish). Hopefully not more than $80/month with month-to-month contract.

Any feedback on The Camp Transformation and their programs? I couldn't seem to find their rates online. Thank you for the insights!

Stomach Bug?

Is there something going around right now? Dizziness, headache, nausea?

It's hard for me to tell when I'm contagious or when I'm just unhealthy but if other people have it too I know it's not just me.

Edit: thank you everyone for responding.

Mail theft?

Why do people go extra lengths to steal mail?

Are they looking for checks? I assume it’s such a small number of checks that are actually on paper. A lot of time it’s junk mail. Moved from the bay where they were extremely brazen.. now it’s happening here! Just honestly curious about what they are looking for.

On that note, everyone should get their mail everyday and sign up for informed delivery so you know if anything important is coming.
