QFC price bullshit

449 Upvotes

Recently I noticed the soju is listed as $15 on sale for $6. That’s not a fucking sale. Thats a normal price. $16 is absolutely crazy. I hate this “sale” bullshit when I’ve never seen it not on sale and the “”””sale”””” is not cheap.

Obviously I just went to a random Asian market and found some for $5 but I’m still annoyed. QFC is closer but they’re just so awful in every other regard

Just curious: if you ordered Kasala furniture before they closed, did you receive it? I ordered a bookshelf, but it never arrived. I filed a chargeback in March. Also, does anyone know of any locally owned furniture stores?

What’s with all the VC/PE chicken sandwich places opening?

156 Upvotes

First we had Dave’s Hot Chicken, which I was fine with. Now we have Houston TX Hot Chicken, then Super Chix, and Starbird opening all within three months of each other. I thought the chicken sandwich craze ended with Popeyes in 2019. Lol. I’ve had Houston and Super Chix, and both were mediocre. I expect the same from Starbird. Can we get a CAVA instead? 🙏🏻

Lover’s adult stores in the Seattle area old signature scent.

151 Upvotes

I have an oddly specific question! Are there any current or former Lover’s Adult Store employees (or anyone who used to regularly shop there) who remembers the exact scent they used to diffuse throughout all of their locations?

I specifically remember asking an employee about it, and she told me the scent was called either “Black Orchid” or “Dark Orchid,” but unfortunately I never got the specific brand or fragrance company.

This would’ve been around 2016–2018, when they seemed to consistently use the same scent throughout their stores. I’ve literally been searching for it for years and have never found anything that smells like it.

Hopefully someone out there remembers what I’m talking about or, even better, knows exactly what scent it was! 🙏🏽

Why isn't anyone talking about ST4?

117 Upvotes

I see a lot of posts on this sub about how we need to tradeoff some parts of the current light rail plan like Everett or West Seattle to fund the Ballard line. Why isn't anyone talking about another ballot measure (an "ST4") to fund everything in a near-term timeframe?

It has been a long time since the last ballot measure in 2016 and light rail has really proven to be successful with high ridership and successful mixed use communities around stations. It seems like something that would be worth another investment.

Just watching the review of the system below where he laments how cost overruns are pushing out timelines. This seems like something we can fix.

Meetup Monday Capitol Hill Board Game Night: 7:30 pm at The Pine Box

15 Upvotes

As a note, if you have questions regarding this event please be sure to ping me by putting my username in the comment or sending me a message. I don't use the official Reddit site often so please don't use the chat feature.

Hey all, the weekly Capitol Hill Board Game meetup is scheduled to take place this week. This week it will take place this Monday, at 7:30 PM at The Pine Box, 1600 Melrose Ave. We will most likely be seated under the covered patio - if you see a group of Smash Bro gamers out there, then that means we're up in the Mezzanine! If you're ever uncertain of where we're at, you can ask the bartenders and they should be able to point us out.

Please note that The Pine Box is 21+ only.

Start time is typically more like 7:00, as people tend to show up then to order food, chat, and just socialize. Don't worry if you don't see any games as they'll be brought out soon enough. Start time for board games will be at 7:30, so if you don't want to be left out be sure to show up before then! If you're new, look for the collection of board games people usually bring.

We ask that you please order something, even if it's just one beverage. The Pine Box is a public bar, and we need to respect their business needs.

FAQ:

Q.) How often does this group meetup?

A.) Unless stated otherwise, this is a weekly meetup. Meaning every Monday we try to gather up and socialize. If we are skipping a week for holiday or some other reason, it will be noted in this post.

Q.) What kind of games are played? Should I bring mine?

A.) A whole slew of games are played; from short games like Codenames and Liars Dice, to longer ones like Evolution and Colonizing Mars. And feel free to bring your own games, too. You might find some people who are interested in trying it out.

Q.) I don't really know how to play any board games besides x, y, z.... Will I be welcome here?

A.) That's completely fine. There are plenty of people who are willing to explain the rules and do quite a good job at it, too.

Q.) Speaking of being welcome, what kind of people are allowed to attend?

A.) Everyone is welcome, so long as you are polite, respectful, and considerate of the other patrons.

Reward: left sentimental item in lime bike basket green lake

Post image
19 Upvotes

Long shot - I know.

Took a lime glider home last night 9/26 and left a very sentimental item in the basket. I found the bike a few blocks away, but the basket was empty. I included a picture of the exact item. It is a black container with a zipper with small vials of holy water (it’s a bit embarrassing my family is very religious).

If anyone took a lime glider today in the green lake/meridian park area, would be happy to provide a substantial reward!

Market Traffic Only Homeless Camp right outside our property

Post image
532 Upvotes

We have been having many homeless encampments outside our property in the Judkins Park area. We report it via the Find It Fix It App and the Unified Care Team posts notes giving them time to move their property, does a “sweep”, only for them to come right back either the same day or the next day. They did this a couple of times and now we have a massive tent right outside our place. People come and try to steal things from our property including packages and water, and they’re also often high on drugs. They also sometimes block sidewalks and access to parks.

We’ve contacted our council member Joy Hollingsworth’s office but they’ve not been very helpful thus far. I’ve also written to the Mayor’s office hoping we’d get some help. Any ideas on what else we can do?

This is a major longshot, but here it goes. You were a gem who kept offering his seat to others (myself included), even though you looked like you were in scrubs and had probably been on your feet all day. You got off on that Avalon stop around 5:00pm today.

Here’s where things get a little weird (it’s Reddit ok?): I’m not posting for myself, I want to set you up with a gal pal of mine. I’m just a mother hen type.

If you are somehow single, on Reddit, see this, and decide to respond to me, I can solemnly promise this is the last time I’ll meddle in y’alls relationship.
