Best "Taco Tuesday" spots in the Burg / Spotsy?

We've been going to El Rodeo 2 on Salem Church Road, where they have $1 tacos, but their service has gone so downhill - took 40 minutes to take our order last Tuesday, and another 30 to get our food (and the place wasn't even busy!).

We are looking for another Taco Tuesday spot.

Any suggestions?

Editing to add - If they have taco specials, can you share what the specials are?

Where to buy fresh flowers?

I’m relatively new to the area and really enjoy making my own dried floral arrangements but It’s been hit or miss finding cheap fresh flowers. Does anyone know of local grocery stores that always have flowers?

Young dems go vote

Your future will be impacted more than anyone by this election. I just early voted and it was a little disheartening to see such a strong showing of the eldery with trump atire clearly outnumbering just myself and a few others. Not being ageist just stating an observation. It was a quick and easy process so please do your part!

Mobile butcher?

Anyone know of a mobile butcher or someone who will come to your farm? I’ve got a hog that really belongs in my freezer, but no matter what we do (and we have tried just about everything), we cannot get this ornery fool loaded in the trailer. We’re in Locust Grove.

New to the area- medical recs

My family just moved to KG, I am looking for a new PCP for myself (33F) and a ped for my daughter (21 months) anywhere in KG, FXBG, etc I specifically am looking to start the process of seeing someone for an adhd diagnosis and medication; it is chaos in my brain and since becoming a mom I struggle even more. I want someone to listen and take me seriously, I’ve struggled for years and I don’t want it to just be brushed off as mom brain. 🙃 And my daughter will be 2 soon and I need to get her set up with a new ped. Preferably females for us both. Also, we need a dentist! She hasn’t been to one yet, and I need a cleaning 💁🏼‍♀️ anyone good with kids/generally friendly and kind would be wonderful. Thanks Redditors 🫶🏻

On November 5th, Virginia will vote not just for President, but for Congress. Register and vote so you'll have a say in what kind of country America will be!

Register to vote

In Virginia, you must register by October 15th to register in advance. You can register here: https://vote.elections.virginia.gov/VoterInformation

If you miss this deadline, you can also register at your general registrar during early voting or at your polling place on Election Day. See this page for more information.

Voting in person

Virginia offers early voting from September 20th-November 2nd. Early voting happens at your local voter registration office. Some counties and cities offer additional early voting sites; see their website for more information.

If you prefer, you can vote at your polling place on Election Day, November 5th.

When voting in person, be sure to bring an acceptable form of identification.

Voting by mail

Any voter in Virginia may choose to vote by mail. Apply for an absentee ballot here.

Ballots must be postmarked by November 5th and received by November 8th, so mail your ballot back promptly. You can also return your ballot in person to your local voter registration office, or a dropbox in your county or city (see their website for locations). If you return your absentee ballot in person, you must do so by November 8th.

If you mail your ballot, you can track it here.

Please let me know if you have any questions!

Recommendations for selling gold?

Have you dealt with a trustworthy shop? I've got some old gold jewelry to sell, but not looking for a pawn shop (I don't like their business model, so I don't support them).

Any recommendations?

Dog Mart is tomorrow (Sat Sept 28)- come on out!

Bring this kids. Free. Historic!! K9’s, dog show, adoption event, vendors. Details on FB. Isaac Walton League on Herndon Rd is the host (Rt3/Orange Plank/Herndon). If you’re into (or into teaching kids/fam) shooting, fishing, archery, wildlife, beekeeping, foraging/naturalist IWL is a hidden gem in the county.

PSA: Early Voting is ridiculously easy

I walked down Caroline St today and saw a sign for early voting. I had some time, so I figured why not?

The process could not have been easier, and the people could not have been friendlier. Great experience…save yourself the stress on Election Day and get out and vote!

Haunted Attractions around Fredericksburg?

We have a soccer team heading to Fredericksburg VA and are looking for a haunted group outing...these are 17 year old girls. Not looking to drive more than 30 minutes if possible. The only one I could find online was Haunted Hill in Partlow, and then of course if we did a whole day trip could do King's Dominion. Are there any other haunted attractions in Fredericksburg that are worthwhile? Thanks!

Fresh produce

Does anybody know what day of the week Wegmans tends to get their fresh produce delivered and put out? Or if you have another grocery store recommendation please let me know. I’m about 45 minutes away and our grocery stores produce has been terrible like it’s already rotten in the store or goes bad two days after I buy it so I’m willing to go up to Fredericksburg about once a week just to get some decent produce for us.

Best Place to find Hot Wheels?

Looking for the best place to hunt for hot wheels! The main locations like dollar stores, Walmart, target, etc. all are picked clean by scalpers every night with no morals. House of Kars or whatever it is on rt 3 sells for entirely too much, and well that’s not really hunting, and it seems he prices them according to their value, and not for what they go for in stores. So no better than paying scalper prices.
