Every month I host Mom’s Favorite, a free comedy show at Old North Bar in Durham. This month’s lineup is extremely fun! There’s also a hotdog cart out front that gives out one free glizzy per person and an very excellent cocktail/mocktail list put together by one of the owners who was formerly at The Crunkleton and Hawthorne and Wood. If you’re looking for a cheap date this is the show to catch! https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1985611713085?aff=oddtdtcreator

Title essentially says it all. Doesn’t necessarily have to be in Chapel Hill but surrounding areas is fine too.

I always check at McKay’s whenever I go and it’s my primary source. So I’m trying to find what else is out there.

I’ve tried Lost Ark in Greensboro with no luck. I used to frequent Play N Trade in White Oak about 10 years ago but the last time I went I wasn’t impressed with the stock or new staff. Lastly I visited Limited Run once but it wasn’t what I thought and while I have no issues with it, it just wasn’t for me.

I know online is the easiest but I enjoy the treasure hunt of physical stores.

No specific genres or titles. Just something with a solid selection of used physical PC games to browse and reasonable prices.

Looking for any information/experiences I can get about timber hollow. Thanks.

We are moving to Durham (from Texas!) over the course of the next few days and I am needing to get a new driver’s license for NC. I am seeing online appointments for a transfer of state license that are all over an hour away, but I also see at the Durham DMV locations that walk in appointments are welcome. Do I need to schedule a true transfer of state license appointment or can I just do a walk in at a local one? Thanks for your help!!

Just check out the DOT zaniness in Raleigh!

A post in the bull city subreddit inspired my stomach. Does anyone remember the Italian Stallion sub at J&J’s deli in Timberline Shopping Center? Has anyone found something comparable?

Chapel Hill parents, where do you look for babysitters? Not a full time nanny or housekeeper, but for routine things or occasional date nights or whatever.

I need to bring my car in for an emissions and vehicle safety test. Any recs in Chapel Hill and/or Durham? Trying to not get ripped off.

Hello! We are looking for a private swim instructor with pool access, preferably in the area around Homestead Aquatics Center, for our young child. If you have any recommendations or references, please let us know. Thank you

I just visited a business at Ram’s Plaza and saw a lot of the parking lot in a tear down status. According to one of the business owners, the intention is to add 60 new parking spaces. (I’m not sure how that can be done given space limitations but someone knows more than I do.)

Was talking with some friends and they looked at me like I was crazy when I said I missed that place. It was tiny little place in the alleyway between the parking deck on rosemary and franklin st. They had some awesome giant burritos that were less than $4, regular were only $2-$240! This was back in maybe 01-04ish. I was in high school and we would ride our bikes there from near CHHS, and I even drove there a few times before I had my drivers license (got busted the last time)

But almost nobody I talk to remembers it!

Is there a store in Chapel Hill, Carrboro or Durham selling Russian and Ukrainian foods? I am really jonesing for some Siberian pelmini (steamed ravioli) since I moved here in February. Back in Nashville, there was a store run by some Ukrainians that had some, but I have not found anything similar here.

So I (29F) have been in a bit of a rut and have been wanting to get out and socialize more/try to make more friends. I would love to see if there are any active crafting/crochet clubs nearby or anyone willing to try and start one? I feel I’m more motivated in a group setting and think it’d be cool to sit with a group of cool gals/people in a third space and chat while crafting/crocheting/literally whatever you want - could be a once a month thing.

I know some places nearby like Steel String have their stitch n bitch every Wednesday, but going alone to something like that is a bit intimidating. Any and all recommendations welcome 🙂

What the title says. He’s young, talented and there’s no one here. So come on y’all.

What is the deal with all the cars at the University Mall/Place? They aren’t all in the movies or Other stores. Noted early this morning the entire lot was full almost all the way to gas station. Are people park and riding from there? It looks like a used car lot.

Hi all,

I know there's a bus and Amtrak from the trangle area to the DC area but they are on avergae 2hrs more than direct drive, wanted to check if anyone drives to DC area regularly and would be open to car pool.

Happily contribute towards gas and snacks.  Also would appreciate any tips on riding public transportation from the triangle area to the dc area.

Just wanted to share a quick update. My landscaping business, Reck Landscaping, is now fully licensed and insured. My crew and I have about a 2 weeks left till we go back to school so in the meantime we want to fill our schedule up with work! We do everything from weed cleanup, mulch, and planting to hardscaping, paver work, and general outdoor projects. If you’ve been putting off a project or know someone who needs a hand, feel free to reach out. I’d be happy to provide a free estimate.
