Looking for pedicure recommendations

I am aware of yelp.

I’m pretty comfortable / familiar with most mani-pedi salons, or at least the standard stuff (pedicure, massage).

Wanted to see if anyone had any place they really enjoyed.

Thanks

sidewalks.

My friend died last night on Philips. He was hit by two cars. Florida Highway Patrol said he was walking on the highway for an unknown reason. The reason was because they’re not decent enough to spend money on sidewalks. This is where he was walking for reference (on the right)

Car decals

I'm looking to put some striping on my car and want it done professionally, but not sure where to go. Any recommendations? Also, do you buy the decals ahead of time that you want put on (if the place doesn't carry them)?

Gun ranges that allow me to use my own ammo?

I am going to a range on Monday but haven’t decided where. The last place I went to checked the ammo I brought to ensure it wasn’t steel core. I understand why that is important to them, but then they proceeded to hold the ammo and told us we had to buy theirs at a very marked up price. I’d like recommendations on places that will let me use what I bring but also sells ammo too in case I do need more.

Last time I was there, Saltwater did things this way. But they are a bit far from where I live. Tia

Where to buy La Favre products?

Does anyone know where to buy La Favre products, specifically hats? I don’t see that they have their own store, so I’m thinking it’s online only, but my Google skills do suck. Any ideas?

Towncenter Improvements

Are there any plans to improve the logistics of the Towncenter? For example, maybe adding a parking garage or a tram/train system or pedestrian bridges? Whoever designed this abomination did a horrible job. The problem is not only on the holidays. It’s an everyday occurrence. It’s an example of terrible city planning.

Chef looking to volunteer

I am a chef by trade and I'm looking to use my skills and time to help people in need. I have done some research on various charities around town that do hot meals for people, but I am wondering if anyone here knows of any particular place that may be in need of cooks before I start reaching out to places. I just want to volunteer my time where I can have the most impact. Let me know if you have any suggestions!

What can you tell me about Springfield?

So, my family is moving to Jacksonville in Jan/Feb and we really like the look of the Springfield area and that it is in kind of a central location. However, reading up on it, there seems to be a mix of opinions on the neighborhoods desireability. I read back on recent posts here but can't seem to find a definitive answer. We are flying down in a couple of weeks to take a look around the city.

For a little context, I'm from Memphis, TN, so I'm no stranger to a little bit of danger in my life (though I never had much problem in my hometown aside from a couple of break-ins and a stolen car once). We do have a 7 year old now, though, so we do want to live in an area where he is safe (or at least as safe as you can be in America today). Would love to hear thoughts from those who actually live around there. Thanks in advance!

Inexpensive but good Funeral Home on the Northside

Does anyone know of an inexpensive funeral home on the Northside? With visitation and chapel service and burial at Restlawn. What if the family member has no money? Do any of the funeral homes make payment arrangements? Unfortunately, the deceased made no preparations and his children don't want cremation.

Anyone know of a decent mechanic or shop that does performance/aftermarket installs? It is on a Kia if it matters. Thanks!

Outdoor Gun Range

Are there any outdoor gun ranges within 100 miles that also rents pistols? I'm looking to teach a new shooter and give them the opportunity to shoot multiple guns to see what they would like to buy in the future.

Best date night dinner for $200.00

I want to get my parents a gift card to a nice restaurant for Christmas since they would never do that themselves. What is the best place they could go in Jax that would be $150.00-200.00 for 2 people to have dinner?
