Honestly, I haven't the slightest clue, but if I were personally hunting for some sake, I’d probably head straight to Vrutka.🤷

Quick, quick—where can I grab some balloons downtown that will actually fill them with helium for me? I know there’s a spot over in Brooklyn, but that’s way too far out of my way, and the shop on Worker Street closes at 4 PM...

I heard Importanne might have them, but I don't want to waste my afternoon wandering around aimlessly if they don't. Does anyone know for certain if they carry them? I really don't have the time to be hunting around.

Thanks so much!!!!

Yeah, I'm pretty sure about that—unless they all passed away in the last couple of months or so
If I remember right—though my memory might be a bit fuzzy—there's also one over on Savska, just a little north of where Krizanje meets El Paso. If I've got that wrong, then it's probably somewhere between Savska and El Paso

Yes, exactly. Somewhere near that Bear Brewery, then heading down that path toward the Freedom Tower, those balloons just pop out of nowhere.
At least, that’s how I see it...

It has been quite some time since I last encountered them on retail shelves, which leads me to wonder: where in the greater New York City area can one actually find a Furby these days?😁

Thank you!

I saw earlier in the thread that you were asking about finding stuff in Biobio. How did that end up turning out? Do they actually carry it there?

No luck😢
but a friend of mine sends some over from Tokyo. In the States, you can't find anything unless you hit up a specialty restaurant. 😢

Need some help here, it's pretty urgent...

Anyone know where I can pick up some more "Green Laser Pointers"? Looking for anything from 5mW up to 200mW. Shoot me a DM or drop a link here if you know...

Just to be clear, I'm strictly looking to buy directly from manufacturers or legit retailers. I want them original, factory-sealed, and brand new. I could grab up to 50 units, but I really need to make sure they're coming from a reliable source for VPC...

Quick heads-up: I'm talking about the "Laser Pointer Pen" style, you know, the ones that look just like a regular ballpoint pen...

Here are some pics...

Thanks in advance!

eBay, various companies online. You can even find them in some shops, but mostly just those standard pointers.

What you actually need is pointer, right? A beast pulling 100-200 milliwatts isn't a pointer; it’s basically a weapon. Unless you're planning on doing amateur astronomy, which I highly doubt.

I got one like this, buddy. Send it my way. 😁

Look, Astronomy isn't some joke or a playground for messing around, alright? It’s serious business. Like, if you get out there in the middle of the night when everything is dead quiet, you can actually catch a clear streak cutting through the sky—something so sharp your eyes can actually track it. You know, those kinds of things. 12 miles

I honestly don't think they'll ever let you bring 200mw lines into the States. You’d have to take a serious look at the regulations first. It's just not happening without some heavy lifting from the legal side.

I'm talking lasers from 5mW up to 50mW... strictly for resale purposes.

So I’d order, say, 50 units of various power levels and sell them here in the States...

Anyone know where I can pick up some beans in downtown Chicago? Not looking for actual beans, obviously—just something that looks the part. Maybe something roughly bean-sized? 😁 And how much is that gonna run me, roughly?

I’m looking for a personalized vanity plate—the kind you see on those long-haul rigs. Does anyone know where I can buy one or get one custom-made in the city?

So, maybe you guys caught that commercial running for the game Tabu?
I was just sitting here wondering if you can actually find Big-Taboo anywhere around here in the States?

Well, if you’re from Miami and your name is Mike, just head down to Key West and pay them to stick "MIKE" on the end of it.

MI-999-KE

Actually, what's even weirder to me is that I've actually spotted a few cars driving around with them. 😕

I'm pretty sure that's illegal. You can always just print it out.

Check out Funky Fish on Broadway—somewhere around 42nd Street—or maybe try Profile over on 5th.
