Some of you may have seen our post a couple of months ago where we were looking for people to trial our business, for those who didn't here's a quick rundown. A friend and I thought it would be cool if you could turn any photo you want into a paint by numbers kit. That way you can paint your dog, cat, partner, the whole family or whatever you want without having to be an artist.

We looked up the idea and found that the current stores in the market were ridiculously expensive or only offered kits without a frame or with a DIY frame (who wants to put together their own frame? Don't you just want to open the box and start painting). So we looked around and talked to a bunch of suppliers and eventually we were able to produce custom paint by number kits cheaper then anywhere else and already framed.

We reached out to you here on Reddit asking you to test them out at cost price and we've received some amazing feedback as a result. Thank you if you were one of our OG customers! We want to continue to grow and get more feedback and reviews though so we're re-opening the offer in case you missed it the first time around or you want to order some more kits.

You can use the code "COSTPRICEREDDIT" to get our kits for cost price (our margins are pretty slim right now, we want to be as affordable as possible). You can get up to 4 kits at that price so feel free to buy a few and plan a date night, family activity or just get your Christmas shopping done early. If you've already ordered with that code it has no been reset so you can get the deal again!

We look forward to getting more feedback and hopefully you'll love our kits enough to spread the word to your family and friends!

It’s come to my attention that at the Roundabout diner, somebody has left a Boston Red Sox 2004 fitted hat in the rain, it’s dirty, and I can’t take it, but it’s on one of the handicapped signs. I hope somebody can take care for it, as a Hat collector it pains me to see this. If somebody could take it, That would make me feel better for not being able to take it. It’s been there since at least yesterday.

May be long shot but I'm 50/m attending a friends get together/Xmas party at TJ's of Portsmouth next week. I won't know anyone, or very few, other than my buddy who's hosting it! Could be a fun, low key, 'blind date' for us both! I'm going solo if not but figured I'd try here and see what happens! 🙌

It was above Springer's and Banana Republic in the very early 2000's. Does anyone remember it or the name?

I have a ring with a lot of sentimental value that needs a stone reset in it. From talking to some local Jewelers it appears that it's not a trivial piece of work. The suggestion was I find a good Goldsmith to do the work, as opposed to a jeweler who sells jewelry.

Are there any in the local Portsmouth area?

What are the best bars for meeting older women?

Does anyone know of any young adult golf leagues when it’s back in season?

Appreciate any recommendations.

Any good self service car washes in the Portsmouth/Kittery area? Looking for one where you just wash it yourself in the bay, no big spinny brushes.

I (33f) moved here on Saturday from Tennessee. I’m currently just sitting in my apartment and have no idea what to do. I, of course, haven’t made friend quite yet so it’s just been me and my dog hanging out!

Anyone have any suggestions? I thought about maybe taking my dog down to the beach for a bit but it’s already dark so maybe I’ll do that tomorrow. Maybe I’ll walk across the street and buy a puzzle or something? Idk but the boredom is killing me

Also, I’m not a drinker which kinda eliminates a lot of options unfortunately lol

Hi Everyone! I’m getting married in the Portsmouth area in July and I’m looking for a videographer, my budget is about $3k please let me know if you have any suggestions! Thank you!

Looking for a private chef to cook a dinner for 20 people in the Portsmouth / kittery area. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks!

What’s going on with the air quality right now? Just drove over the Piscataqua bridge an hour ago and it looks like it did last summer during the Canadian wild fires. Smells like oil burning too.

Really enjoy house music, are there any shows around this area?

Hey!

I’ll be traveling to Portsmouth in the next month or so and was wondering if there were any establishments that were gay-centered by any chance? I know there isn’t a dedicated “gay bar,” but would love some recommendations as to the next best thing! Also, any other cool places can be suggested!

They don't take reservations so I'm wondering how risky it would be to go on a Friday around 6?

Seeing a show in Portsmouth, have reservations at Jumping Jays. What else is there to see and do in the afternoon? Looks like all cruises are finished for the season, The Stawbery Banke is closed, and the Portsmouth Lighthouse is closed.

What should I see and or do?

And bonus points for non Ya Basic flavor profiles.

Hi, my best friend just went through a breakup and is looking for a roommate as of November. She lives in a super cute spot in the heart of downtown portsmouth. It's an older house but has tons of charm and you would be in walking distance to pretty much everything. She works from home, and loves hiking, skiing, being outdoors/ has lots of fun arsty hobbies.

Anything in the area? TIA!

Hi! I’m visiting a friend the day after Halloween and wanted to know if anybody knew anything about events going on during that weekend! Any information would be super helpful.

Hi, my friend and I are traveling through Portsmouth tonight and its our last night together and really want to do Karaoke. Where can we do Karaoke on Sunday night?

Greetings, everyone. I am reaching out due to my growing concern for my older brother. At 24, he is battling schizophrenia and homelessness. With winter nearing, his predicament worsens, and I am in search of any resources that could aid him.

His instability, compounded by his condition, renders self-care challenging. I am on the lookout for local food pantries, complimentary community meals, shelters, or organizations that can offer assistance, no matter how minor. Any support that could alleviate the severity of his winter would be immensely valued.

The thought of his suffering is heart-wrenching, and I am earnestly seeking ways to support him, as personal interaction can be distressing. Should anyone be aware of services, advice, or resources within our vicinity, kindly share. Immense thanks in advance.

Edit 1: thanks for the replies, as someone else said you’re all wonderful people. 💗

I want to mention that he has been and continues to be resistant to receiving help, making it very difficult because we live in New Hampshire.

My wife's always wanted a classic New England Christmas experience and I'm happy to have found Portsmouth to visit in early December!

I don't mind driving up to about an hour if needed (no further than Portland, ME) and we fly in/out of Boston so we could stop pretty much anywhere between there and Portsmouth. So far I have the following planned but would love some recommendations as we'll be there for 3 nights over the weekend.

• Candlelight Stroll at Strawberry Banke

• Nubble Lighthouse

• Fort Foster Park

• Winter Wonders at Sandy Hill Farm

• Cryptozoology Museum (if we go to Portland)

We also love seafood and I haven't found the determinate best spot for a lobster roll and/or bisque! I have these restaurants bookmarked to check out:

• Elephantine Bakery

• Street 360

• The Kitchen

• Vida Cantina

Appreciate any/all recs. We can't wait to visit!

I’ll be in town first week of November for a show. What seafood places do you recommend? Are there non-touristy things I have to see?
