Coming into Charlotte from north

Sorry if there's a megathread on this, I looked and didn't see one. I'm coming to Charlotte next week from the north, looks like I might be taking 85 South. Here's the deal.......I am terrified of bridges! Like bad. I can handle small, undramatic bridges, I'm talking about anything high or that has dramatic curves, stuff like that. I've never driven into Charlotte, this will be my first time. I will literally drive an hour out of my way to avoid a scary bridge. So that's why I'm posting. Am I in for any unpleasant bridges coming in on 85?

Walmart in Stallings price gauging

Hi all I will be reaching out to the AG's office on Monday bc of what just occurred. Hubby and I just went to dinner then stopped at Walmart for a few more groceries and of course the obligatory UNCC hoodie after the win. We were getting @42.00 worth of goods and they rang up at 83.85. The tp was marked at 15 and rang up as 32. I told the cashier and showed the picture of the pricing. She was such a a b and kept blaming Helene. I said y'all need to change the prices someone will be a bigger b then me. The guy was like yeah you are right. The girl was on repeat just blaming Helene and WNC. I finally looked at her and said you just don't want to hear what I am saying. I WAS truly trying to be nice and say that they needed to update on pricing. But the turkey we were going to get from the deli was labeled as 5.98 or 6.98 per lb and rang up as 11.05 for a lb. Wunderbar 4.98 rang up as 10.00

Just be aware bc that's Some bs. I don't get mad often but that provoked me.

Best place to buy a used car

I'm looking to buy a used car, I have been to CarMax and several dealers but still haven't found the right car or the right dealership. Where did you buy your used car and why did you buy it there?

CATS rails in the roads

I live in Concord and rarely travel to down town Charlotte. I was wondering, in situations like in this picture where the rails are in the road, how to you be sure your car isn't getting hit by a lightrail or whatever tracks these are for? do they just drive like a car would but stay on the rails?

Stupid question re: The visualite

I was invited to a show at the visualite this evening. I’ve never been to this venue and don’t know what to expect. Is it the kind of place I can drop in for a couple drinks and a couple songs and bounce? Or is it really more conducive to staying the whole show?

I likely can’t make it there before the show starts. I don’t want to be a douche to the performers but would like to catch up with friends if I can.

Thanks!

Best bars for a girls night out

I’m going out with a friend tonight and we are both new to this area and looking to see where we would have the most fun? I’ve checked on this subreddit for the past two days and narrowed It down to either South end of NoDa. We are both in our early 20’s but don’t want a college (21) type of crowd. Where’s the best place to go? We love dancing and I want to go somewhere in walking distance to other nice bars.

Help!!

Walk from 9th Station to First United Methodist (?)

TLDR: Is walking from 9th St to First United Methodist Church safe?

Hey everyone, I'm wanting to avoid parking in the city by taking the Lite Rail Blue Line to 9th station and then walking to First United Methodist in a few weeks. The path that Maps is recommending is walking E Ninth St -> N College St -> E Eight St -> W Eight St. I don't know much about the roads and walkways, specifically what streets are safe for a woman (or visibly queer person) to walk alone. Can anyone give me advice and insight on this? If not that path, which would y'all recommend?

Pro Tip: Check with your job to see if they offer donation matching before donating to any organization

A lot of companies offer donation matching if you donate to any organization. Make sure you double-check before donating, or even if you already donated a lot will still honor the match! I just donated to BeLoved Asheville and my company is going to match 100% of what I donated.

Looking for other board gamers

My wife (29F) and I (31M) are looking for other board gamers in the area! We're relatively new parents so we just need a night every week/other week to get back into the hobby we love and meet others. We used to do Thursday game nights at Amelie's pre-Covid but things have changed a ton since then.

Hope to find a new go-to spot and meet some of you!

The Amp Ballantyne - how strict?

I’m going to a show at The Amp tonight and got a “know before you go email” that says blankets can’t be any larger than 3X5. My concert blanket is bigger than that - 5X6. Anyone know how strict they are?
