My teen has a romper and a dress that she asked me to convert into blouses. I really don’t want to try to do that and would rather pay a seamstress, but I think it’s beyond what they do at like the cleaners. Any recommendations?

I am about to pickup a secondhand leather couch. I was wondering if there are any professional leather furniture cleaners in the area?

I’m trying to get a better understanding of what food assistance resources are available in the State College area and surrounding communities. Asking for a dear friend of mine.

I’m aware of the larger food banks and church pantries, but I’m curious about smaller or lesser-known resources like community fridges, little free pantries, blessing boxes, food distribution programs, etc.

Does anyone know of any in State College, Bellefonte, Boalsburg, Centre Hall, Pleasant Gap, or nearby areas? I’m particularly interested in where they’re located, who can access them, and whether there are any restrictions

I'm a grad student and don't have time in my schedule to deal with a private sale, even though i know that's where I'd get the most value. Mechanically sound just old and dinged up, and I'm not trading it in as i have a family vehicle lined up. Any used car lots/buyers offering over scrap value?

Hi all! I’m relatively new to State College and I’ve noticed there are not many weekend flea markets, farmers markets, or Amish markets nearby.

What are your favorite flea markets, farmers markets, and Amish markets within an hour drive of state college? I miss fresh Saturday morning donuts (there are surprisingly very little donut options in town) and I love to shop local/family business.

I also LOVE to thrift and go antiquing. I’ve done all of the places in the nearby towns, but if y’all have any suggestions that are also within an hour drive, I would love to hear them!

Any healthy food options in sc? Prefer solo eating ones and not too expensive

The sign “RIGHT TURN SIGNAL” does NOT mean you cannot make a right on red, if safe to do so. The sign: “NO TURN ON RED” means that you cannot make a right on red.

I’m so tired of having to sit behind ignorant drivers who don’t know how to correctly interpret signs. Please educate yourselves.

Has anybody used Frank the Tank car detailing? He has a lot of reviews but mostly in Colorado. I think they just moved here. Looks like they can do both interior and exterior but was wondering if anybody had first hand experience. Thanks!
