Rules

Hey everyone I'm thinking about leaving the website. Probably won't be back here. Before I leave it, it would suck if I abandoned this community without new people to take care of it if anyone else is interested in taking over for mod stuff let me know.

It's not much work honestly it's just removing stuff when it doesn't belong here in a subreddit about Santa Maria. You don't have to follow the rules I set.

The rules I enforced were made by the person that took care of it before I got the mod role.

You all can decide what you want this subreddit to be. But since it's about Santa Maria I assume you guys want it to be mostly about this town.

Applications are open just comment down below. I'll be promoting the only other mod here to the new owner just want more people in mod role so they won't be alone. Hope you all keep enjoying this subreddit after I leave the site.

Including the California props that are still being counted?

How are we feeling chat?

Looking for any run clubs. Runners. Or those looking to start up? TIA

Been passing through Santa Maria on my commute lately.

Was curious if anyone knows of a good taco shop serving breakfast burritos that opens before 6am?

Preferably it’d be within 5 minutes of the 101.

TIA!

Clinics won’t be held until March, but we will be doing a screening clinic in December for those who are not already established with a dentist.

Please contact me through those options I listed above if you are interested! :)

Hey y'all. Like seeing the activity here. Would like to talk about somethings.

I believe everything should be allowed to be talked about except inciting real life harm and attacking a part of someone's identity they cannot change even if they wanted to.

Try to be nice but if someone starts being rude and aggressive feel free reciprocate within reason as long as the discussion doesn't cross a line into the real world.

threats of harm and violence are not allowed.

I believe civil discourse doesn't always have to be polite and sometimes ridicule is needed but it needs to be within reason.

Basically don't post stuff that'll get this subreddit banned from reddit.

Don't post stuff that will have the FBI or NSA or CIA use this subreddit as evidence in court.

New to Santa just moved here recently , hmu !

I'm fixing to move back to the central coast soon and am wondering what are the best places these days to rent from, what's cheapest or easiest to get into, tips as tricks, any advice y'all could muster for me :) I haven't lived there in a while and have heard it's grown quite a bit the past few years. Thanks!

You look at Facebook groups, instagrams of many young men from 20-40 (red pilled hardcore in Santa Maria), 90% of the local police officers, and of course the older crowd that voted for Trump last election cycle.

I genuinely do not understand how these people accept these beliefs that don’t benefit them in anyway whatsoever.

Is there a core reason besides the demographics listed above?

From updating components to general repair and maintenance, is there a viable alternative to the dealership?

What fuck happen in the freew is tooo slowwwwwwww!??

I work on base and was outside a couple of minutes ago and heard a rumble sound seemingly coming from Santa Maria direction. I watched the launch and landing online and I know that wasn't it. Is there an air show or something happening at the airport?

EDIT: Spelling.

Hey Everybody! If you have a teen or are a teen that wants to carve a pumpkin, please join us at the Abel Maldonado Community Youth Center from 4-6pm! Pumpkin is provided :) I can accommodate up to 15 teens.

So finally made it to the 805 night market and I was a little disappointed. The one thing I was excited for was the tanghulu (fruit covered on sugar). Well each skewer was $15.00 dollars! Even more disappointing was the cherry tomatoes they used.

Have you ever wanted to have a painting of your partner, a family portrait, your dog or whatever your favorite photo is? I always loved the idea of painting but unfortunately I'm not the best at it. A few months ago though a friend and I came up with a cool idea, what if you could turn any photo you want into a paint by numbers. That way anyone can paint, anything they want.

We looked up custom paint by numbers and found a few Etsy stores selling them but they were way overpriced and most of them didn't even come with the canvas on a frame. So we looked around and talked to a bunch of suppliers, eventually we managed to produce custom paint by number kits cheaper then anywhere else and already framed (you can still order them without a frame but we found most people want them ready to go out of the box).

Long story short though we're trying to grow and get more people talking about us. So we decided it would be a good idea to reach out to some local subreddits and hopefully you'll enjoy them enough to share your experience :)

You can use the code "COSTPRICEREDDIT" to get our kits for cost price (our margins are pretty slim right now we want to be as affordable as possible). You can get up to 4 kits at that price so feel free to buy a few and plan a date night, family activity or just get your Christmas shopping done early.

Hello! Does anyone have a recommendation for somewhere to buy colored contacts for Halloween?

Most online stores would require an extra 30$ for a fast enough delivery. Id rather avoid that if possible

I don’t need money particularly, I need to buy something online, but I do not currently have a credit card, will be willing to negotiate prices, and I can also possibly add other computer parts as well. Looking to spend about 400 dollars online in turn of these computer parts. Pm for details :)

Hi everyone, does anyone know of good local cleaners that work on the weekends or after 5pm? I’m interested in getting 2 bathrooms cleaned, thanks!

Zoe's Hawaiian, D & A Hawaiian, or is there another spot?

My guess is that sometime during the 90s the Santa Maria Theater was torn down. Anyone remember seeing movies there?

Anybody know why there aren’t any dispensaries/storefronts in santa maria? I know there’s delivery services but I would rather walk in and see what I have to choose from

Hey guys, I came from Ventura where I used to work as a domestic assistant (basically I was cleaning people's houses mostly, but also doing things like errands, chores, online work, massage therapy etc.).

Ive been wanting to work as a domestic/personal assistant again but haven't done it in a long time so I'm hoping to volunteer to work for someone for free, in the area, mainly so I can improve my skills again as an assistant.

Is there a good place for me to work, or even if there's anyone local here that could use a volunteer assistant, that would be helpful. Thanks!

Is there a rule for posting political signs or flags at ur house? I live in quail meadows and this morning at 7:30am we had a knock on our door saying that we are only allowed to have one political sign or flag up. I think they are discriminating against because it is a Harris Walz Flag and the HOA chairman is a Trumpie. We drove around the neighbor hood and theres a few houses that have multiple signs and flags. And no where on the rules does it say that.

Update: Have not took anything down. I only have a flag and banner Ive been reading about it and the Davis-stirling Act in California says we are allowed
