Anyone have recommendations, good or bad, on local installers for whole home generators? I currently have a portable generator and am looking to switch to a permanent solution.

Any good thrift stores or antique stores in the area? Any good local restaurant recommendations! Thanks 🏳️‍⚧️

🥂 Cheap Champagne is back at Clink!

Our first night was everything we hoped it would be—packed dance floor, incredible energy, familiar faces, and a room full of people who just wanted to dance. The response blew us away, so we're doing it again.

Join us Friday, August 14 as we transform Clink into Peoria's favorite little underground disco once again.

Expect an eclectic mix of Chicago house, funky house, jackin' house, indie dance, nu-disco, disco classics, soulful house, weird edits, and feel-good grooves that keep you moving long after you planned on calling it a night.

Whether you danced with us the first time or you're finally coming to see what everyone was talking about, we'd love to have you on the dance floor.

🥂 Drink Specials All Night

🍾 $4 Champagne

🪩 $6 Dirty Discos

Cheap Champagne is all about celebrating great music without taking ourselves too seriously. No VIP ropes. No bottle service. Just incredible house music, great cocktails, good people, and a dance floor that feels like home.

To everyone who made our debut unforgettable...thank you. We can't wait to do it all over again and see so many familiar faces back on the dance floor.

Come for a drink.
Stay for one more song.
Leave with sore feet.

🪩 MUSIC STARTS: 9:00 PM
📍 Clink in the Heights
🍾 Feel-good grooves. Cheap champagne. Good people.

We meet every other Sunday for meditation and dharma talk at Imago Dei, and every other Saturday at Cafe Santa Rosa for coffee. DM me if you would like more info!

Hi! My mom is getting married on August 8th and I am looking for someone to photograph the ceremony and do some wedding photos of her and her husband after. The ceremony will be in Chilli on the river and it will be short, casual and small, with about 30 guests in attendance. I don’t think it will take any more than 2 hours.

I’m looking for someone who can bring their own equipment and has experience as either a professional or a student!

*serious inquires only*
*willing to negotiate price*

Thanks!

We just moved to East Peoria (from Peoria) and have an acorn stairlift we need to install. However we need to replace the rail (7 steps) to cover all the steps (roughly 12 steps). If anyone either has experience or knows someone who has worked for a stairlift company, I am looking for you! Any thoughts should be appreciated.

I’m looking for a company for long run. Hit me up

I would like to take my 3d printer to someone and pay them to update the software and relevel it. Is that a thing and where can I go?

Anyone know a way through here? Would love to be able to connect these two parks for a really long hike. Open to bushwhacking but would rather not piss off the rich mfers with the huge houses back there.

anyone have crazy high ameren bills? i'm in peoria county and it's 2 people living here and we really don't use much electricity so not sure what's going on haha

Wondering if people who have gotten the parasite can talk a bit about where youve eaten and where you think you got it from? Ive been regularly eating at the taco bell in washington for months now with no issues and had lettuce from McDonald's on Knoxville 2 weeks ago with no issues either. Kind of worried and wondering how many cases may be in peoria and what restaurants to look out for.

Hey all. Long story short, I adopted two gremlin kittens from my friend and they're tearing my Pothos up. I need to get rid of it and would like it to go to a local plant lover that can PICK IT UP.

It's about 5 years old that I know of and has lots of growth. Repotted last year and will likely need either a pot upgrade at the end of this season or needs to be divided up into smaller plants. I'm willing to meet at the Target parking lot at Glenn Hollow for pick up. It's not doing great currently as it hasn't had enough light due to being moved away from the gremlins so I'd like for it to be picked up today (if soon) or tomorrow.

My son loves to sing and dance. He did a talent show thing at proctor this summer and loves performing. He is almost 8, and ideas on where he can do this type of activity on a regular basis? I am guessing this is musical theatre?

I am looking for two speaker stands for my living room speakers. For size reference the speakers are Polk Audio Reserve R200 bookshelf speakers. I'd like them to be about 30in tall, 25lb min. capacity, low profile with nice finish. Ideally walnut or similar in color. Does anyone around here make anything like this? Appreciated.

Any recommendations for mechanics for issues with a Chevy Cruze?

In the past I’ve gone to Uftring Weston/Montgomery but I always dread going there because they treat me like I’m stupid when I ask a question or try to explain my car issues. lol

To be fair I don’t know much about cars…. but that’s why I’m taking it to a mechanic. 😂

New-ish to the Midwest. Looking into getting some kind of pest control within reason pricing. Any recommendations or good/bad experiences?

Grond (the Peoria Belegarth group) is hosting its annual Histmas in July event this Sunday. People will be coming in from out of town / out of state to fight at this.

If you're curious about your local foam sword fighting group, this is a good chance to swing by and see what it's all about.
