Hey guys! I’m an RN and just recently got my botox injection certification but I need to source my own clients. It is concierge botox so it allows clients to do get treatments from their house but I need to find my own clients. Any advice on where to post/ get clients in this area? I’ve already done social media advertising on my platforms but that’s about it. If anyone is interested lmk:)
Hii! So I’m going to be attending Northampton in the fall (diagnostic sonography) and I was just wondering are the people at Lehigh kind to the people that go to Northampton? I’m hoping to make some friends there! I also want to Yk experience a frat party at least once, along with a hockey game!
Other than the mall, are there any places like gas stations, that are selling Eagles gear? I’ve seen tents on 309. I was just wondering if there was something up this way.
We are looking to book a band to play at a church festival in June, does anyone have any recommendations for good local bands? We are looking for a band that plays either country, classic rock, or a mix of both. Thanks
The minimum wage in PA is abyssmal, and the average rent affordability means that one has to earn at least 16- 24 an hour. Most jobs around the Valley don't even remotely touch that high.
If you're also Gen Z, how the heck did any of you guys move out alone and afford rent? Private Landlord? Or just got lucky with a low cost apartment.
Any cool shops or spots etc in Catty , Whitehall or Northampton worth checking out? Any cool hidden gems ? Not really looking for restaurants more so coffee shops or cool hobby stores, nurseries or whatever
Semi recently moved to Center City and was wondering where the best local pizza places are? Pizza Mart and Deliciosos have been our go-tos but they’re closed weekends. Bru Daddy’s is great too, but was thinking along the lines of pizza parlor style pizza.
I see many Teslas in the LV. How easy it to get them serviced here? I hesitate to consider them because I don't want service hassles.
Recently moved here and would like to start a family, how is pen argyl school district?
What the deal with Easton Schools? Everyone is telling me to move to a “better school like Nazareth” before my kids reach the middle school. Yet many of my friend’s children go here. Is it that bad? What is the school district doing to curb behaviors?
I'm looking to get my hair highlighted, and every salon I've checked out says highlights start at $200. Is that the average price for highlights these days?
It has been saying it’s going to open for almost half a year now. Are there any plans that it’s actually going to open?
I’m going to NYC in March and I’d rather not drive. Thinking of booking OurBus out of Hellertown into NYC and back but I’ve never heard of this company and don’t want to have issues. Anyone with any experience with them traveling to and from NYC?
Does anyone have the inside scoop on what brand they use, or if they make their own? Do they sell just teriyaki sauce to take home?
821PM, driving on 78E between Cedar Crest and Lehigh Street exits, on the right side.
Over a period of 20-30 seconds, 3 long, green flashes, like lightning flashes you’d see when there’s heat lightning, happened on that side of the road.
Any idea what it was?
I can’t make it to Harrisburg, but want to tell Trumpet and his P2025 to F off.
Reputable Pawn Shops/Jewelers anyone? Maybe even a bit outside if LV to if necessary.
Business owners who don't make their political positions known & take a "don't ask, don't tell" approach are one thing... businesses that openly advertise their politics are another thing entirely.
For anyone else looking to vote with their wallets & make informed purchasing decisions, which spots belong on this list?
No HR Black or similar type service please
My wife and I are beginning to believe that now is the most important time in modern history for moral and compassionate people to band together in local community. How do we do that? We are not interested in a religious organization, or an overtly political one. Are there other like minded people here?
Is there anywhere local I can pay to get scratched up video game discs resurfaced?
My birthday is at the end of the month and literally the only thing I want is a giant pizza.....like the absolute largest it can get! Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

i’m based in the Allentown area looking for a job. I’ve been applying for 2 months and it’s leading me to no where. i would appreciate any recommendations or tips because i’m at my breaking point. i apply to at least 3-4 a day and if i do hear anything back, its rejections.
edit: thank you so everyone who replied and gave me advice. i really appreciate it, i dont feel so alone in the abyss now.
Husband was recently in an accident - and is thankfully OK. But unfortunately the car is totaled. We already have 1 car payment and I'd love to avoid another if possible but I have 0 experience with used car dealerships. I'd love your recommendations. And I guess who also to avoid. Appreciate all of your help.
