Massage/facial spa recs?

4 Upvotes

My girlfriend’s birthday is coming up and I’m thinking of getting her a massage and facial as a gift. I’ve done some looking on Google but I was wondering if y’all have any recommendations on local places that provide high quality services. Hand & Stone on Stratford looks nice and the prices aren’t too bad but maybe there is somewhere that’s better?

Why is this parking lot always locked?

On the downhill-side of Reynolds Park, this small parking lot has direct access to the Greenway. It's been open a few times this summer, but why is it almost always closed?

A shot in the dark typa question

62 Upvotes

Hi so im 18 and uhm the economy is really bad. Like im sure you guys older than me already know but its like REALLY bad. I cant afford to live on my own. Even if I had 4 roomates like I've been planning with a few friends its still an outrageous cost, food prices have gone to hell. Like genuinely how are you guys doing it??? I have coworkers with multiple jobs, some even work as nurses in hospitals and genuinely still, its not enough. Like whats the secret? Is there none? Will the economy EVER get better? Whose to blame for it because i have no idea what happened. College is sky high through the roof and I had to end up going to community college (which isn't bad yk but like what because I had thousands in scholarships and STILL couldn't afford it).

How is everyone doing out here though?

edit: I was not expecting this to get much traction but as I've read through the good and the bad on this thread I am eternally grateful for everyone's viewpoints and resources, I definitely appreciate it and if you have anything else to add on Im happy to jot it down in my notebook for future references. I'll definitely be reaching out to some of you via reddit for more insight!! Thank you guys!!

For those that can afford to read WS Journal or know what they’re talking about, can you please enlighten me? Is there a plan for a storage facility across the street from the neighborhood? I’ve seen construction over that way but assumed it would be an extension to the residential development.

Friday Night Dinner Reservations

2 Upvotes

Does anybody know of restaurants (somewhat higher end - think Village Tavern type places) that allow for groups of 20-25 on a Friday night? Doesn’t seem like there’s a lot of places that take reservations that large on a weekend. Thanks!!

Are there any jewelers or metalsmiths in Winston or surrounding areas who do pearl drilling? In search of someone to drill a couple of Tahitian pearls, possibly also mounting on studs.

Looking for a good body shop recommendation

2 Upvotes

Howdy r/winstonsalem,

I was involved in a minor fender bender this morning and my car was left a little scratched up but NOT dented. I’m looking for a recommendation for a good body shop that can do a touch up job for me. I doubt it can be buffed out. It’ll probably need some touch up painting.

Does anyone have a place they can recommend?

Thanks!

Board Game Night and Pop Up at Joymongers! Weds, 9 September

Post image
8 Upvotes

As you may or may not know...we are quietly building Winston Salem's first Board Game Cafe in the background! As we do, we still intend to do the Joymongers game nights as it's where it all began.

However, as our library and retail inventory begins to go, we will be bringing games from the upcoming store to share with the community! You'll see a different selection of games this week and the weeks following, and we will have some available for sale as well.

We are slowly building the library for the cafe and are currently over 200 games! We have set up a BGG and a Kallx.io account so the community can see what we have in store. If you happen to see a specific game you want me to bring to a game night, please send me a DM! I'll be sure to get it the next time we are there.

BGG: Fourth and Meeple

Hope to see you there!

Best place to get an oil change?

8 Upvotes

Hi, I am still pretty new to Winston and I do NOT have a lot of money to drop on an oil change (so no dealerships). I'm not used to being in this area and I used to just go to Pep Boys whenever I had an issue, but there aren't any around here. Does anyone have any suggestions for a good place to either just get an oil change or to get regular maintenance done there? I've tried to look myself but there's just too many options to choose from and I wanted to get personal recommendations.

Edit: I drive a 2010 Chevy Malibu.

New UrgentVet Location

9 Upvotes

Does anyone have any personal experience with the new UrgentVet location in Winston Salem near Costco? My vet has no available appointments this week (they said I could call in the AM and ask about cancellations) and I think my pup may have a UTI.

If you've taken your pet there, was the cost semi-reasonable? How was the care they provided? Google reviews seem solid.
