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

wearyowl29 said:Does anyone know where I can pick up a new VHS video player in the city? Honestly, I don't care about the brand at all, just need something that works.🙄....I've been spending my afternoons calling every single AV equipment shop in town, and it’s been a total bust. Nothing.🙂

Why specifically a new one though?

Just hit up a thrift store... grab $17 10 of them, and you'll definitely get at least one working😁

BTW, if you really want to hunt, I'd bet on places like Best Buy, Micro Center, or similar spots

Does anyone happen to know where I might be able to track down a significantly larger, plush teddy bear somewhere in the vicinity of Osijek, Vinkovci, or El Paso? Honestly, I’m not even concerned about the price tag at this stage...

mistyseal11 here! Just popping in to say hello to everyone! I was sitting on my porch this morning—lovely weather, really crisp, perfect for a coffee—and I started thinking about how much things have changed lately. It’s funny how life works, isn't it? One minute you're worrying about the small stuff, like whether you left the oven on, and the next, you're having these big realizations. Anyway, just felt like spreading some good vibes today. Hope you're all having a fantastic week! Keep smiling! kaže:
Why go with a brand-new one, though? I mean, I was just sitting here thinking about how much I love a fresh start—like when I finally decided to repaint my home office last summer. Everything felt so stale, you know? But then, boom! New color, new energy. It’s like hitting a reset button on your whole vibe. Sometimes you just need that clean slate to really get things moving!

Get lost, you absolute nutcase! Seriously, just go jump in a lake! $17 Buy ten of them. One's bound to work, for sure! 😁

By the way, I’d put my money on Emmezettu, Technomax, or something along those lines. They just have that vibe, you know? It’s like when you're walking through a tech expo in San Francisco and you see those specific booths—you just know they're going to be the big players. My gut feeling is usually pretty spot on with these things!

There’s absolutely nothing worth buying over there. Honestly, if you're looking for anything useful, don't even bother heading to that spot—it's a total bust. If you actually want things to work properly, you’ve got to shop smarter than that! 😁

Is there a Target (the one by the happy McDonald's) in any part of town?

Hey everyone—does anyone happen to know where I might be able to pick up a Danboard (aka Danbo)... maybe somewhere here in the city?

Basically, I'm looking for this little little guy: http://www.collectiondx.com/gallery2...7/PC262075.jpg 🙂

Does anyone know if there is a place where one might actually purchase those coin sorters used in banks, high-end boutiques, or similar establishments where significant amounts of cash change hands? 🤔 I am referring to the apparatus that resembles a slotted tray designed to accommodate various denominations... except, in my specific case, I have no use for a massive unit featuring slots for pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, and half-dollars 🙂. I strictly require sorting capabilities for $0.17, $0.33, $0.67, $1.75, and 🤷.

Well, if you're looking in St. Louis, there’s a place called Target where they actually sold me $83 this absolutely gargantuan bear—like, 5 feet tall—that we could barely squeeze into the trunk of the car.

So, I was just scrolling through the web and stumbled upon this page over at Emmezeta and it got me thinking—is this actually the specific little teddy bear I’ve been looking for, or am I perhaps mistaken and chasing after a completely different one?

Playing Carcassonne in Chicago?

Hi,

I was wondering where I could pick up some 3D puzzles here in Chicago.

Thanks!

Does anyone know if those "Tamagotchi" style electronic pets actually still exist somewhere, and if so, where I can pick one up?

You can always find them hanging out at local carnivals or street fairs.

Where can I find Krombacher Weizen in a store around Chicago? Looking for specific retailers.

The only place that comes to mind is Vrutak!

Checked already. He isn't there.

Does anyone happen to know where I can pick up a Van Gogh Starry Night poster?? Has anyone stumbled upon one lately?

redcobra15 said:Guess I’ll jump in on this one too... I’m out here hunting for helium for my son’s first birthday and... nothing. Honestly? Everything feels way too overpriced.
Is anyone actually making sense in this thread, or am I just talking to the same seven people from three months ago?
Hey everyone,
p.s. this is basically a suicide mission at this point.

Any local balloon company or event decorator specializing in party setups😉

Which city are you in?

So I’m totally lost on these forums—honestly have no clue where else to post this—but I’m getting a little desperate here lol. Can anyone help me out with printing a large photo onto bed sheets? I’m planning a gift for a close friend and this idea just popped into my head—does anyone know where I can actually get this done? Like, specifically custom printing on bedding :// thanks in advance!

hey guys, does anyone know where I can pick up a hot glue gun around Chicago? thanks in advance 🙂

Where in the States can I pick up some printing paper like this:

Just standard A4—actually, let's call it Letter size since we're here—around 80gsm stuff (like a 500-sheet pack for maybe 25-$10 bucks) but I need it thicker so I can run double-sided prints without it being a total mess—160gsm would be the sweet spot
So, I'm not talking about that overpriced glossy photo paper or any of those fancy boutique stocks for art projects—just plain, heavy-duty paper that can handle being printed on both sides without bleeding through everything
