Hi all. Looking to donate a leg brace and a set of crutches I've had since a recent surgery. Looking for a worthwhile spot for them where they'd be appreciated as gently used goods. Thanks all! :)

Just moved to Lawrence a few months ago from kcmo post college. Black 22f. If anyone could tag any good locticians/braiders theyve used or know of. Instagrams or just any local places they know of as well.

Man, I really miss the nachos royale with the lengua and a smothered burrito. Also the cheap Cadillac margs on Friday. Gone but not forgotten.

I just had Kia replace my transmission. Two days later my oil dash light flashed on and off. I took it back to Kia for a diagnostic test but the guy said they didn’t see anything wrong they can point to but we might need a new motor. They said the oil light didn’t come on for them. I don’t think they even test drove it as the oil light flipped on and off again on the way home. No warranty. This seems insane to me. He quoted 12000-14000 for a new motor.

Has anyone else had issues at the Kia dealerships service department?

Hi, if you live on Harvard Road near Monterey and your doggo is missing I followed him around for about an hour this morning. He wouldn't let me get close enough to touch him or read his collar. He looked like a mutt, light brown/tan fur and about 45-50 pounds I would guess. Last place I was able to follow him was near Dad Perry Park. he made his way into the backyard of a house over there and I wasn't able to see where he went. The last house I saw him at was 1208 Parkview road (could be wrong on the name it runs along the west side of Dad Perry Park. I did contact animal control and they're looking for him, I hope someone sees this and is able to help. If you find him and do manage to get him on a leash or coralled you can call animal control to come get him, they're aware and are out looking as well.

Hi, first time asking any sort of question on here but is anyone else in Lawrence experiencing a weird, greasy film in their hot water and just their hot water? I've noticed that my hot water at both home and work has this weird film in it and it comes out cloudy and it doesn't disappear overtime. Anyone else?

Today I was just eating brunch at Perkins when the server told us that he was overwhelmed because all the cooks in the kitchen just up and left. The two managers were the only ones cooking all the food in the kitchen and the servers were working very extra hard to keep up with the loss of cooks. The remaining staff were very accomodating and we were understanding.

Then the restaurant closed at noon today. That was really crazy. First time experiencing that that I remember!

I'm a woman in Lawrence wanting to learn just some basics about car management and repair- change oil, spark plugs, change a tire, etc. There's college courses but they're pretty expensive. Anyone know how I could go about learning this? I know I could YouTube it but I'd preferring in-person, hands-on learning!

I heard something yesterday about the ICL plant in North Lawrence dumping into the Kaw River is this true?

Has anyone gotten a tooth implant from Free State Dental? If so, how much did it cost?

Seriously, westbound out there it's like Goku and Vegeta fought on the asphalt. I guess this is also the biggest winter storm I've personally seen since moving here a decade ago, but god damn, they tore the roads up.

Just curious if there any special menus for Lawrence or even Overland Park/Kansas City area. I saw 715 had an option but that is definitely out of budget. Looking for something under $100 per couple

Looking for recommendations for nail salons/techs particularly for acrylics. A plus if they’re skilled with nail art! I’ve tried a few and just want to see what all’s out there that everyone likes!

Might be a long shot but we are planning a whimsical fantasy wedding and would like to find a bard to play during the ceremony. Wondering if anyone knows anyone of the sort, figured Lawrence could potentially provide.

Where's the best place in town to get some used tires? To make a long story short, I'm going to do some diy suspension work, but the parts are going to take a bit to get here. In the meantime, I'd prefer tires that have some tread, but don't want to buy new tires with my bad suspension.

I’m a Lions fan and one day I was behind someone at a light and they had a lions sticker on their car. If that’s you, hi friend. I’ve also seen a house with a Dolphins flag. But it made curious what other teams do we all root for here?

PS if you’re a lions fan I’d love to have a little lions fanclub here 😂💙

Not at all the season for this, but if I don't post this now I'll forget by the time it's relevant. I got put off of watermelon years ago after eating some downright terrible watermelon--sour yet bland, mealy, just awful. As you can imagine, I'm looking for the opposite: fragrant, sweet, crisp, juicy, all that. I want to bring back my love for watermelon! 😭 If you happen to have that experience with any personal-sized watermelon, that'd be incredible, but I'm happy to splurge on and eat a bigger watermelon if it's good. Source doesn't matter, be it farmer's market, supermarket, hidden gem grocery store, your neighbor, I just need a good watermelon in Lawrence!!!

This is the official thread for networking and discussion about Lawrence housing.

r/Lawrence is a low post volume subreddit, and there have been problems in the past with it being overrun by ads and personal listings, so for the sake of the community please keep housing discussion here and don't create any additional posts on this topic.

A new thread will be created each month.

Does anyone have any photographer recommendations that still have bookings open for this semester? I am graduating from KU and totally forgot to even consider photography

New to town, looking for a gym and would love to hear some recommendations.

I only do the "gym" part, no group classes. Would love a sauna, but it's not a dealbreaker. Preferably generous opening hours, but if not, I will make it work. Are there any places that are not packed all the time?

I'm trying out Crunch this week, not a fan. Employees are friendly, but the place is quite dirty and PACKED with people at literally all times. Tried morning, early afternoon, after work afternoon, it's ridiculous. Mornings are manageable, but any other time you may not get a bench, have to wait for machines for forever, etc. Are there any better, less crowded options around here?

I'm trying out Genesis North next week, but I'm extremely annoyed with them already. Ever since I looked up the prices online they keep calling me every day. Yes, every single day. Even after I replied to a text and set up a meeting with one of their staff members, other people still keep calling me. If this is how they handle their business, pushy AF, I'm probably staying away from it after the trial.

Hi y’all, where do you think is the best local store to get a bass or guitar setup? On a budget and looking at my options. Thanks.
