Tires?

[info]dlorean posting in [info]atlanta
Add to Memories Tell a Friend
It's time for some new shoes for my car. I'm looking for a good deal on 4 quality tires for my 96 accord.

I'm probably also in need of an alignment.... so 4 tires + alignment, where should I go?

Oh, and DONT say midtown tire on ponce. I don't trust them to wash my windows after the poor service and inexperienced techs they had working on my car......

Other options? Preferably ITP but I don't mind driving a bit for a really good deal. Should I buy tires online and get them mounted somewhere local?

Internet woes...

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
Okay, so i'm way beyond fed up with Comcast, and my two alternative options appear to be AT&T FastAccess DSL or Clear. Anyone care to recommend one or the other?

The AT&T is cheaper, but I fear it may be too slow. I watch a decent amount of streaming TV shows, so if you can comment on speed in relation to that I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

I got online to pay a parking ticket I got last week only to find that I got one June that I did not know about. I'm fine paying the original price ($25) but hate to pay the DOUBLED price ($50) since it wasn't paid in two weeks.... since I didn't ever get a physical ticket... the woman on the phone says i can dispute it but is that even worth doing? How does it work?

Normally I wouldn't even mind but I'm already pissed because my new ticket is $50 because I parked about 6 inches past a 'No parking' sign and for two and a half hours instead of two. And I'd rather pay $75 of stupid fines then $100...

November 6th, 2009

From 9 am until everything is sold or it gets dark, we are camped out at 90 Peachtree Hills Ave [just off Peachtree near P'tree Battle shopping ctr] waiting to take your money. TONS of stuff!

Clothes [adult and children], household items of both useful and decorous nature, CDs, VHS [I said it!], books ...[hardback, paperback, computer/tech], electronics, Breyer horses, costume jewelry, games and much much more!

Also, NEW and UNUSED bath and beauty products. I have a boxload of inventory that was left behind from a photo shoot when the client sold his business. There is enough lotion here to fill a swimming pool. There are hand washes, shower gels, men's products, stuff for gardeners, lip balms, as well as cosmeceuticals like scar gel and wrinkle creams. All NEW, UNOPENED, PRISTINE and direct from the mfr, oh yes and PRICED TO GET OUT OF MY HOUSE. You will never find deals like these on quality products like this, you can see what I'm offering at carenproducts.com... I have these exact products, only in the old packaging. That website and packaging were created by the people who bought the company; I am not in any way affiliated with them. I was the designer for the line before it was sold, and the products I have are the old look, but exact same contents at a fraction of the price because I want the stuff GONE. Come see us and suffer no dry skin this winter!

And as if that weren't enough, courtesy of the same client [I pick winners; thanks for asking] I have a extensive collection of gorgeous handmade [not by me though] jewelry... includes Swarovski crystals, freshwater pearls and semi-precious stones. [That gallery has three pages so don't miss the "next" button.] This stuff is priced to move and would make fabulous holiday gifts. I actually think it's really pretty and kept a bunch of it for myself, but there is so much and since the client never paid for the shoot I need to sell and try to recoup, so my loss is your incredible gain. Don't miss this! I will also happily ship this stuff, so if you can't make it and are interested in jewelry PLEASE message me; I am happy to take paypal and ship it anywhere. Did I mention that it would make beautiful holiday gifts?

See the Craigslist ad here:

COME SEE US; WE LOVE YOU! Tell your friends! And thanks for looking. :)
But not recently that I can see.

SO who's got the scoop on the cheapest emissions testing place in Atlanta. I live in Buckhead but not afraid to drive a little bit (unless the drive is just gonna cost the same as doing it by me)

I already hate that I'm dropping $60 just to renew the car next week, so $20 for emissions is kinda the frosting on the poop cake if you know what I mean.

Thanks in advance for the advice!

Havana Sandwich Shop is re-opening on November 16th! Thought I would share the good news with anyone else who was mourning the loss from last year. :)

Note that it's moved up to the intersection of Clairmont and Buford Hwy, in the same complex as the El Pollo Loco. Can't wait!

dog boarding?

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
we waited a bit late for this, and now our normal vet/boarder is completely booked. i've made tentative arrangements for our two yorkies to stay at a PetsMart Pet Hotel, but want to check around. does anyone have any feedback on the Pet Hotels? additionally, does anyone have any recommendations for places that board and have good, reputable care? we live in norcross, so if it's near here, that's a plus. thanks a lot!

Need Gnocchi to Live

[info]amolasses posting in [info]atlanta
Add to Memories Tell a Friend
Hi Atlanta - does anyone know where I can find some gnocchi ITP? I don't mean from a restaurant - I need it for a recipe I'm making and I don't have time to make it from scratch. I could swear I've seen it packaged up in a grocery store before, but now I can't find it. I've tried the Edgewood Kroger and both the Ponce and Ansley Publix, as well as the Dekalb Farmers Market, and no love.

Next logical steps to try include Trader Joe's and Whole Foods, but before I run around to those and possibly other places, does anyone know for sure where I can get it?

Thank you, oh great and powerful hive mind!
Hi, Atlanta!

I have, ahem, sizable assets up top and would like to get some really nice quality bras, including a sports bra for exercise. The last time I was measured at a place with integrity, I lived in FL, so that does not help me now. My chest is weird in that I need a small band size with a large cup size. The aforementioned measurement was then a 34FF, the likes of which can not be found in most common bra places like Victoria's Secret or Fredericks, or even like a Lane Bryant. I'd like to get measured again and see what there is available.

I did google and yellow page this and I only found Intimacy, which had mixed reviews at best. And apparently they look at you to figure out your size instead of using actual measurements, which I am unsure of. I vaguely remembered someone mentioning Silver Lining, which of course, shut their doors the weekend before I started looking, lol!

So please, tell me of places you might know of or recommend that can help. Or tell me if you've been to Intimacy and what YOU thought of it. Thanks so much!

if they also accept CIGNA/Great-West(ern) health insurance so much the better.

{My many thanks to everyone who responded! you have been immensely helpful and i feel like i have a handle on this thing finally. I'm so glad the atlanta lj community is so helpful, you guys have been there for me for years.}

I bought a used car

and the dealer gave me a yellow "drive out" tag. Do I go straight to the tag department for a new tag, or should be mailed to me before I visit the tag office?
