I have recently gone through my room and have found a bunch of old Pokemon cards. I looked at all the values and none of them are crazy, the biggest being 20 bucks. Theres a little more than $200 dollars worth in the binder. Wheres the best place to go to sell them?
About 2 years ago I won 2 (common) goldfish from the fair and have been trying to take care of them.
I have them in a 50 gallon tank right now, however the water gets filthy very fast and I need a bigger one.
I do not have enough money to keep spending on these guys but I have had them long enough where I care about them.
I am in the Buffalo NY area and am wondering if anybody has a pond/ bigger tank that would be willing to take them in.
I am looking for a service or rental company that has a rockhound and/or harley rake. We just leveled out back yard and there is a lot of rocks and whatnot. Also need to condition the soil after before we plant grass. Any advice is appreciated.
Currently the end of our front yard is a muddy mess. Some neighbors on the street have curbs and I was curious if this is something we could inquire about. Also, adding a curb protector.
I tried to look in this Reddit & on the city website, but if someone could point me in the right direction I’d appreciate it.
Visiting for the weekend and seeing this brought back memories of those blockades a few years back. Anyone know whats happening?
Hi all. I'm in the middle of refurbished my flooring. I will be removing my old kitchen floor made of ceramic tile. I was wondering if anyone can suggest a way to dispose of this (other than renting a dumpster) in the town of West Seneca. Thank you!
I need to bring an almond ring for the fam. tmwr and Eileens is closed. What’s your go-to? Is it a shop I need to order ahead of time or have a good chance of grabbing early tmwr morning? Eileens has been the one and only for these damn things make me change my mind! TIA
Starting by saying I’ve read the driveway posts here — I think my need is different.
I live in a century home in the city — moved in about a month ago.
Our driveway is rough. It’s basically a “ribbon” driveway — two concrete strips made from large concrete blocks (that are currently buckling & uneven). When the drive hits the backyard (there is a small detached garage at the back of the property) it turns into a “two lane” asphalt driveway. Our backyard is really small, so ideal scenario I would like to keep the single lane (extending the ribbon style into the back) & put grass on the other half.
So the job: Rip up current driveway (both ribbon & asphalt) Grade / level Replace ribbon driveway - preferably with permeable pavers
Few things:
I am dreading this job, particularly due to being not a fun one and from what I can tell very expensive — any advice hugely appreciated !!!
Friends and I want to spend a night hanging out end exploring a walkable area downtown one night next week as we travel through. What is the safest area to stay / walk around? I noticed most hotels have off-site parking which doesn’t bother me per se but makes me worried about the stuff that will be in our vehicles overnight. Are all my concerns for naught? Are we going to have an awesome time anywhere? Or do you have specific suggestions? Thanks!
Who makes the best steak and eggs in Buffalo? I’ve had Kostas, Mythos, Pano’s (RIP?), Surge, Lake Effect…
I like medium rare, rye bread, over easy eggs if that helps lol
my best friend is graduating college today and dinner plans with her family fell through. we are looking for a place that’s not terribly expensive but still has good food and drinks!
Family got new insurance plan this year through Highmark and it came with a $250 wellness card. What the heck do we use this on? Everything I’ve tried so far has been denied. We don’t belong to a gym so can’t use it that way. Can it be used at Dick’s Sporting Goods?
I'm a young tech enthusiastic in the buffalo area. I've been keeping up with things like website development, Neural Network Models (AI), Smart tech, Game dev. My interests are pretty general overall. This morning I was repairing my old Galaxy S10+ screen and broke the LCD during the process ( Fun Fact). I'm not looking for anything too specific for associates. Just a bit of interest and or enthusiasm.
I'm out of town but am lucky enough to be able to watch the games via streaming. I was wondering what the original prices were for tickets to the championship game. I see them on the secondary market for $100+
Any tips on the best spot to sit and watch the planes come in and take off?
Just for personal reasons
I feel like I got assaulted by my family and no one in Buffalo seems to be helping me. I called the police but they hung up. Idk who to turn to, no one seems to respond, is there anyone with a fast response time?

Recently about 730pm Amtrak Empire Train 281 was in accident and it wasnt pretty. Now train 281 and 283 are right to each other and both trains are now cancelled and passengers are being send up to Niagara Falls station via special bus.

More honors for Bandits players. Game 2 tomorrow here. Bandits up 1-0 and can get that repeat championship and sixth overall (which would put us in a tie for most in league history with Toronto and Philadelphia, which ironically relocated twice and is now Albany).
Odd question: But where do you all get your bags of ice in Buffalo? Prices seem higher than I recall.
It's dark and raining. And I was just on the 33. And man I could barely make out the lions at all it's like they're not reflective in any way. Is anyone else have this issue? Or do I need to get my eyes checked?
I have a colleague coming from out of town who wants to check out the Blue Cave for dinner. They have a bit of a harder time walking and asked if I could drive. What’s the parking look like down there later on a Wednesday? Difficult to find street? Any closer lots?
Thanks
Edit: Restaurant is Blue Cave. Bad copy pasta from colleague
This is good, reactivates a large property along Main Street. Love to see it.
