Ollie's

Has anyone been to Ollie's on 23rd and Nolana? It used to be the 99 cent store. I miss it! I can't find anything at Ollie's that I wouldn't find at any other stores. The 99 cent store was a bit unique.

Christmas lights in Hidalgo

When does that yearly Christmas event start? It's a carnival, tons of Christmas lights everywhere, and pictures with santa. It's takes place on Hidalgo city hall. I just can't find anything about it.

Photography-like courses in the Mcallen (or nearby) area?

Hi guys. Sorry if the start of this thread sounds awkward :/... I never really write on reddit. I was wondering if anyone here is into photography or has a photography business (no, I am not trying to start a business nor compete with or against anyone). Before the ugly mess that happened 4 years ago [Covid], I was really into photography--Mother Nature, urban architecture, etc. I recently have decided to try to get back into that old hobby..... Now, it's been years so I kinda forgot how to use a Canon camera , last time I used it was back when I was in HS. I was wondering if anyone here knew any photography courses: if theres any in the evening that would be great. Also, maybe if y'all didn't learn from a course, how did y'all learn?

Any Good Places to Get Piercings done?

I've been thinking about getting my ears repierced and figured I should go to a professional instead of doing them myself again. Any recommendations are preferred to be around mcallen or edinburg.

Thanks!!

Brownsville hidden treasures

Are there any interesting places that would be fun to explore in Brownsville tonight? I’m thinking like abandoned, mysterious, “only-locals-know-about-it” stuff. I’m in a Dora the explorer mode I guess!

T-Mobile 5G home internet finally officially available in San Benito

Yesterday I received a phone call, and voicemail, from a number I didn’t recognize.

It was from T-Mobile letting me know that their 5G home internet product was available at my address in San Benito.

Many months ago I had registered my interest in their broadband offering by leaving my contact information on their website.

Hopefully Verizon will step up and also offer their 5G home internet here in town too, but I think they’re further behind 5G network wise compared to T-Mobile.

San Marcos Blanket (Colcha)

Where can I find a San Marcos blanket in the RGV? You know the thick, fuzzy blankets with animal prints on them. Las colchas really are the best for the cold weather and for nostalgia.
