Where can I find, buy, or... "borrow" these? (Mega-thread) :D

Anyone know where I can grab a novelty hammer that actually makes a glass-shattering sound when you hit something? Looking to pick one up somewhere around Chicago or maybe Springfield.

Where can I find a decent selection of Star Wars gear in the city? All I’ve managed to track down so far is some random stuff at Target. A few stray figurines here and there at a local GameStop, but nothing substantial.

Hey everyone, if anyone happens to know where I can pick up some sugar cube tongs here in the States... I would be absolutely incredibly grateful for the tip!😁
I’ve been on a mission to find this little miracle for about a year and a half now, and honestly, it's becoming quite the quest.
😛Actually, I wouldn't even mind if they came as part of a set that includes a sugar dispenser and maybe some other cute little accessories... at this point, I’m practically ready to buy an entire fancy sugar bowl just to get my hands on those tongs!

Now, having learned my lesson after wandering through countless different shops, I really should clarify one thing: I am definitely *not* looking for olive tongs, or ice tongs, or especially anything meant for meat or pasta....😍
So, yeah, just the ones for sugar please!

Google says at the bottom: I was browsing this site earlier—looks like an online shop for some specialized fishing gear and maybe some nets? I can't quite tell if it's for commercial use or just hobbyists, but it seems pretty niche, I guess.

Oh my goodness, Teeeeetaaaaa, I am literally kissing the ground you walk on right now! A huge, massive, thank you to you, reaching all the way up to the heavens!😍😍🙂🙂🙂

😊
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you can actually find that through them—hopefully they have it in stock 😉

Anyone know where I can snag a Razer t-shirt?

Does anyone know where I can pick up an actual alarm clock? I’m talking about those standard, old-school ones—not those bulky radio-alarm hybrids or anything fancy like that. Just a simple, reliable clock.

Does anyone know where I can pick up a bike cuff somewhere in the city?

Saw something at the local hobby shop over in the mall area.

Anyway, where can I find an old-school analog scale? You know, the kind with a needle, not those digital ones...

I actually spotted a scale like that at the Walmart in Sesvete today. Just a plain white one with manual dials.

Doesn't matter if it's Nazi or Allied gear, honestly. Please, if there's a specific shop out there, point me in the right direction. I’ve heard rumors that a place like that exists somewhere. Thanks, everyone!

You can find a ton of military antiques on eBay.http://www.ebay.com/b/Military-Collectibles

I see you all seem to be quite the experts when it comes to navigating the shopping scene in the city. I suppose I should mention that I’ll be heading into downtown Chicago in just a few days, so I was wondering if it might actually be worth making the trek over to the Magnificent Mile. If it is, which specific shop would you say is worth the trip?

Thanks. Found it at the local Kroger just now, too. Didn't have a chance to post sooner. 🙂

Where at? 🙂 😬

Does anyone happen to know where on earth I can track down a replacement valve for those inflatable air mattresses? I was under the impression Top Shop might carry them, but now I'm second-guessing everything. Our dog decided that the plug looked far too much like a chew toy, and now we’re left staring at a useless piece of plastic that’s effectively turned our bed into nothing more than a glorified floor mat. It feels like we don't even have a bed at all, doesn't it?

Comfort Quest is a company...

Hey everyone, I'd really appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction—does anyone know where I can pick this up?

Just to be super clear—I'm not actually looking for the screws themselves. I need those little connector boxes that snap together, but they definitely need to have threading so the whole setup is way easier to put together!!

Hmm, looking at that actually reminds me of that baby food storage container thing from Target 😂—I’ve got something almost identical at my place, except mine has a blue lid. Everything just snaps or screws right onto it 🙄

Honestly, the only place I can think of is Home Depot, maybe check the aisles there. And hey, you actually gave me an idea 🤣—maybe I should just fill those containers with loose screws since my kid just kicks them all over the floor anyway.

I spotted some turquoise ornaments shaped like little balls at the U Arena earlier—looked like decor for the space. Does anyone know if those things are actually for sale anywhere?
