I’m on the hunt for a small, pretty artificial tree—maybe around 3 to 4 feet tall. I really want one with those fine, tiny needles that actually look real, you know? Not those cheap ones with the big, plastic green leaves.
Example 1
Example 2A Example 2B This one might look better if I could find it without those white tips, assuming anyone even sells that style. (Found this on the Home Depot site)
I’ve already hit basically every shop around the suburbs and the local malls, so I guess I still have a few spots left in the city. Anyone know where the good stuff is hiding?
Looking to spend maybe $150$100 max.

Greetings. I’m wondering if anyone knows where one might actually track down a classic red Nescafe mug—the kind you see sitting on counters in every local diner. They had those coffee-plus-mug bundles in the grocery stores recently, but they weren't the "iconic" Nescafe ones. Just some imitation.
Or, if anyone happens to have one for sale, let me know. 😉 😁

Does anyone know where I might track down a small glass bottle—say, around 0.5 liters, or something in that general ballpark? And, naturally, it could come pre-filled with water if that makes things easier 🙂

Can anyone recommend a driving school in Los Angeles, or at least tell me which ones I should stay far away from? Somewhere on the West Side maybe.
Thanks

So, I was wondering where on earth I can pick up some of those new plastic food trays, and maybe $3.00 if I could just get them by the piece? I’ve been trying to find a way to buy directly from a manufacturer, but I just can't seem to track anyone down here in the States. I’m probably looking at somewhere around 30 to 60 pieces, I guess, though it really depends on things like the price point, shipping costs, what colors they have, and how good the quality actually is. Maybe someone knows a lead?

So, I was looking at grabbing a few posters with hangers—should be about $10 over on some site out of China—but man, once they hit me with all that sales tax and import stuff, the price jumps to like $30. Absolute madness.
Now, I’ve been scouring the web to see what the local options are here in the States, you know, like finding someone who does custom prints, but honestly? The selection is garbage and the markups are insane.
Like, we're talking $33 for just one.
Since my uncle actually runs a print shop, I figured I could just run the files myself and just order the hangers separately—except the prices for those little hanging clips are acting like they're made of solid 24k gold $33 or something ridiculous.
Is there anywhere around here selling these things at actual, sane prices? Or am I stuck DIY-ing the whole setup from scratch, or do I seriously need to pack my bags and move to China or Japan just to save a buck? -_-

I suppose you could pick up some Velcro at any shop that carries sewing needles and thread.

I guess you might be able to pick up one of those six-pack carriers for beer?

I’m talking about a toy I used to have—like, twenty years ago, actually!! (which is precisely why I’m scratching my head wondering why it’s nowhere to be found online). It was roughly 7 or 8 cm in size... ran on those flat button cell batteries, had three little buttons (memory, plus left and right arrows), and featured the English alphabet. You basically typed out letters—it had this tiny little screen, you see—so you could write things like "I LOVE YOU," save them to the memory, and then by waving the device left and right, the whole message would scroll through. I’ve already scoured eBay, AliExpress, Amazon, and pretty much everywhere else.

Universal household wet wipes
I’ve been hunting for those specific wipes for a while now.
Has anyone stumbled upon them lately? Target hasn't had anything like Blista or Bi Home in stock for nearly two months—nothing. They also used to carry Splendid brands in multipacks, but there's zero indication when they'll return. They should still be on sale, but I can't tell—everyone clearly started panic-buying because of the virus...

I picked them up at Walmart five days ago. They had a massive pile of them sitting there.

I was at the Walmart in both Reno and Las Vegas.
Maybe they'll be back in stock tomorrow—they’re running some household discounts right now.

I saw them in Lastovo. Maybe they were scattered afterward, but they were there.

It’s entirely possible they vanished the very same day.😁
Thanks for the heads up—I'll take a look tomorrow.

Heh—of course I want to—but I highly doubt it'll be anything close to genius.😁
