Why the i30 is always packed?

Every time I take my kids to Six Flags it's like a nightmare. Especially on Sundays.

Dickies Ariat Club Arena Favorites Menu?

Does anyone have any information on the Arena Favorites menu in the Ariat Club at Dickies?

We’re attending Jingle Ball tomorrow and eating before the concert. In the last when we’ve done this in the past they’ve done the Chef’s Table which comes with great options.

When I asked what was on the Arena Fav menu I didn’t receive a response back.

My Grapevine Ford Experience Part 2

You for those who followed my first post i finally got a hold of the finance manager

  1. they said the reason it was added for "free" was because they "lowered the price for me" because they care about their customers. I told then it is redunandant because I still have the manufacturer warranty. He told me the manufacturer warranty "doesn't cover wear and tear". He kept trying to make it seems like they were these super nice folks who were doing me a favor.

  2. He sent me the original price agreement I agreed upon with the salesman and and I noticed that on my paperwork they snuck in a 3 year low jack subscription. When I asked about that he said "well you signed the paperwork" and started getting real condescending.

  3. He told me I have to cancel the extended warranty myself and will need to talk to the site manager tomorrow about the lowjack.

  4. When I told him about the "enter the wrong SSN" 8.6 rate he played dumb. I told him there is no way I would have received rates with my name and SSN not matching.

So at this stage tomorrow I will be canceling the warranty on my own.

Are there any non-religious elopement services in the area?

My fiance and I have both been married before and are looking for a small, low-stress, simple affordable service like an elopement or a microwedding for just us and 4-6 guests. We originally planned on working with a company in Austin that allowed a selection of venues and would provide an officiant, photographer, bouquet, small cake, and minor decorations. Due to an unforeseen issue, we are going to have to keep things closer to home in the DFW area, preferably around Fort Worth. So here I am starting over on our search. Do any of you know of any venue or service like I described? Better yet have you worked with any of them or do you know anyone who has?

Yes, I know a courthouse wedding fits the bill. That's plan B if we can't find anything else.

Constant Headache For A Week

Has anyone else been experiencing a constant headache/migraine in the last week?

I take Claritin every day, I take Flonase on bad days. I do sinus rinses regularly. I take NSAIDs and even Excedrin if my headache is bad enough.

Just wanted to see if anyone else is dealing with this in case something is just in the air. I'm getting very tired of feeling this way every day.

i love this city so much

about a month ago i moved to the DFW from a shitty town in south Texas. i have been all over Dallas and Ft Worth, and i love every part of it.

sundace square is especially pretty. Downtown Ft Worth is so nice, and way calmer than downtown Dallas, definitely makes for a nice change of pace.

also its very cool to see people actually out and about past dark around here, in my previous city, downtown was basically dead past sundown because of high crime rates causing everyone to stay at home.

what are your favourite spots around Ft Worth?

Anyone know what’s going on?

Does anyone know why AMC Clearfork is closed? Is this a one day thing or long term? Seems like a terrible time to be closed on Thanksgiving weekend.

About to do a bid in Jps Trinity Springs

I've been admitted to Jps for 5 days now, (over dose suicide attempt) I'm getting transferred to Trinity springs pavilion tomorrow to do my week or 2 bid.. When I went to the 10th floor to get back on meds in July, I had a tech tell me we get to keep our phones? Could anyone vouch if that's now true or not? Also when I stayed for 2 weeks back when I was 18, (7 years ago) they let us take a few smoke breaks a day. Is that still the same?

Avoid Grapevine Ford

I bought a used vehicle yesterday and everything was great until the financing aspect if it.

Initially when I filled out the paperwork for financing the salesman came back with a 8.6% rate for 72 months which blew my mind. I told then I have an over 800 credit score. They said my account had a red flag, and tried to show me google results to support the rate. I made a comment there was no way I was going to accept that rate. He then asked if I had my SSN card (thankfully I did) and he came back and said the finance person ran the wrong SSN before and now they were able to get a 7.1% rate with Well Fargo. Obviously this set off alarms because they would have seen names didn't match at all.

So after waiting a while and being tired and hungry because lunch has passed we get called back. They asked if I wanted to purchase and extended warranty and I specifically said no because I still have manufacturer warranty since the car I was getting is a 2023 with low miles. I then get told they now found a credit union that will give 6.8% with lower monthly payments and now we were getting a free extended warranty (at the time I thought it was goofy because it was for 2 years and 2400 miles which is less than I have on the manufacturer warranty but we said thank you anyways. Being tied and hungry we signed the paperwork and I honestly should have paid more attention.

Well I get home and last night sit and read through and see I got charges 1200 dollars for that warranty. One that is a waste of time.

This is our second car we got from here and after feeling lied to and used for 1200 bucks, I will never shop there again. Tomorrow I will be calling to cancel the warranty and make them pay the credit union it back.

I looked up online and talked to a friend who works in the industry and they said everything that happened above is a common tactic used by those who want to take advantage of customers.

Beware, who knows what else I'll come across now.

Update

I called and their finance department has a "power outage" and they have to leave a message lol

UPDATE 2

Was able to get one finance guy on the phone and then was transfered to a voice mail. Can't get the finance department on the phone again. Litterally impossible to talk to someone

Update 3

) they said the reason it was added for "free" was because they "lowered the price for me" because they care about their customers. I told then it is redunandant because I still have the manufacturer warranty. He told me the manufacturer warranty "doesn't cover wear and tear". He kept trying to make it seems like they were these super nice folks who were doing me a favor.

  1. He sent me the original price agreement I agreed upon with the salesman and and I noticed that on my paperwork they snuck in a 3 year low jack subscription. When I asked about that he said "well you signed the paperwork" and started getting real condescending.

  2. He told me I have to cancel the extended warranty myself and will need to talk to the site manager tomorrow about the lowjack.

  3. When I told him about the "enter the wrong SSN" 8.6 rate he played dumb. I told him there is no way I would have received rates with my name and SSN not matching.

So at this stage tomorrow I will be canceling the warranty on my own.

Bike Share?

I'm going to be in town this week, but I'm confused about the bike share. When I looked at the service map, every station is listed as "Not Available" / X or 0 bikes available. Is the map broken, or is the share not available?

TIA!

Edit: thanks for the quick answers!
