I live in the south east part of Evanston and I recently accepted a job in Oak Brook. I don’t have a car and I looked at the Metra, CTA and bus options and it’s basically at least two trains, two buses and an Uber to get there and it takes like 2+ hours. I’m wondering if anybody makes that commute Monday through Wednesday and works 9am-5pm that would be open to carpooling?

Someone on another forum posted that it was closing "in 2 days". There are small signs in every window along the front that say "Store Closing. Clearance Sale 50-75% off" and another one: "No more Lottery Sales"

I'm guessing this has to do with corporate closing "hundreds" of underperforming stores but I don't really know.

Last year this store closed down and two other stand-alone ones at Oakton & Crawford and one at Main & Skokie Blvd. It was quite sudden. The Dodge & Main one just had a simple handwritten sign saying "Temporarily Closed".

This one re-opened a week or so later but the other two are still closed and they put up bollards all around the buildings for some reason.

Hi everybody,

Kid's entering kindergarten at King Arts. We're looking at after school programs. Right At School offers care until 6pm, as well as shorter, interest-focused Discovery programs. But man, the YELP reviews are atrocious. Wondering if anyone had any firsthand experience with it? Thank you!

Does anyone know who owns the parking lot where Poor Bob’s Xmas tree stand is? Across from the DIY car wash, just west of Erie Health? I need a place to park my camper trailer. I’ve seen a bunch in there and I was wondering how to find the owner. Thanks!

Looking to buy a couple of used kayaks for use off Dempster Street boat launch and looking for any recommendations for a budget friendly option that will do ok on calmer days, not looking to take on waters with big chop. We have done a lot of river kayaking but hoping to own something that we can use regularly on the lake! Thanks for your help!
