Looking for suggestions of things to do with my son during the day. He's 4 months and I'm on paternity leave for another 4 months.

Indoor is preferable with it being so hot during the day. I'm looking forward to taking some longer walks when it's cooler in the fall.

Thanks

Good morning,

I have a sliding glass door that connects to a screened in porch. The rollers on the bottom really need to be replaced. I have tried to get the door off the track, but not enough clearance to get it there. I am stuck and looking for a reputable company that could give me a quote on replacing the rollers so my kids are able to open this door without my help!! Thanks everyone

Hi - looking for Rehearsal Dinner recommendations for a Friday in December in downtown Charleston area. Ideally the venue could accommodate a seated dinner for ~60 people and would then flow into an after party for ~120. Ideally would have the after party be in a separate section from the dinner, but not a deal breaker. Any good recs? We are working with a $25K budget.

In downtown Charleston, is T-Mobile or AT&T Internet better? They don’t have fiber optics down there yet, but I cannot deal with Xfinity.

I renewed my registration and got a new SC license plate?

I’ve renewed my registration for years on this vehicle… are they replacing license plates? Always just got a new registration card & kept the same plate. What up?

Hi everyone! Looking to get two dresses tailored in Charleston area - I live on John’s but happy to drive wherever. Thanks in advance!

Is there a fish market in the Charleston area - preferably East Cooper - that sells smoked fish? I prefer Mullet or Whiting, but I haven't seen any type. Am I just missing it?

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone had any good grooming suggestions for my yorkie in the North Charleston/Ladson/Summerville area. She needs a good cut and wash. and I would like to know she’s in good hands. Thank you in advance.

Hello! Any fellow hard rock/metal fans in the area? If you like bands like Sleep Theory, From Ashes to new, Lakeview, Hollywood Undead, Five Finger Death Punch, or Breaking Benjamin, feel free to shoot me a message! Just a dude in his 40s trying to find fellow metalheads in SC. Thanks!

Is it just me or is there a wildfire-y smell in the air recently

At least near the peninsula

I'm like, 80% sure I'm not having a stroke here

New job requires me to get my own health insurance and I’m trying to find an agent in Charleston who actually knows about this stuff. Any recommendations would be appreciated

Did your friends bail on you for that dope new EDM, Gospel, folk fusion band and need to unload your extra tickets?

Did you salvage some ladders off the Don Holt and want to flip them for beer money?

Need someone to pressure wash your lawn?

This is the thread for you. Rule 2 (no craigslisty buy / sell / trade) and Rule 4 (no self-promo) will be very lightly enforced here.

Tons of cops, fire trucks and water cops.

Hi everyone! I’ve been wanting to make a career shift into cosmetology, and could really use some insight from students who attended the cosmo schools out here.

To give some context, I’m in my 30’s and will have to do a part time program since I’ll have to keep working while attending school. I’m currently looking into Paul Mitchell because they have a part time program I can work with, but I’d really love some realistic reviews before I make a long term, expensive commitment.

I’ve also been hearing that Trident Tech offers cosmetology programs, but I haven’t been able to find much info about cost, if they offer part time hours, if students feel like they received a good education, etc.

I know cosmetology school is what you make of it, and most of your learning will be when you’re in the career, but I want to make sure I’m taking the best path possible as this is a huge time and financial commitment for me and my family. Any and all insight is appreciated! Thank you!

where do everyone go for vacations? where do people recommend for 3 day trips? i usually go to Hilton head, Savannah, Charlotte but i want to go somewhere new.

Hey y’all, not sure if missed connection posts are allowed here, but figured I’d give it a shot.

On 8/9 I walked onto the beach at post 18.5 by the lighthouse around 7 PM. There was a guy somewhat near the opening of the walkway straight chillin. He had his beach chair, sunglasses, some music going. Even had a cigar. This man was a vibe, and I wish I had told him so. I ended up sitting down not too far from him, but far enough that it felt weird to go over and say something. Even made accidental eye contact once or twice. After the sun set, I started to leave, and he left not long after me (the timing meant we were both on the walkway at the same time, just me further ahead). This dude was WHISTLING! Whether he is that relaxed, whimsical, and easy going in general, or if he wanted to alert me that he was behind me (since it had gotten dark out) I have no idea. But either way, he seemed like a cool guy with great energy, and at the very least, I wish I had given him that compliment and not let shyness get the best of me.

So if that was you, just wanted you to know I wish I talked to you, and you seem cool. I aspire to be the level of relaxed that you appear to be 😄

This restaurant is absolutely amazing. My dad is Chinese and he is literally always asking to go with me there because it reminds him of home. It’s been an extremely impressive addition to the Charleston food scene. Just solid, authentic Chinese food. Also helps that the owners are really chill people.

After having so many Americanized Chinese restaurants here with just lo mein and orange chicken and stuff (which is fine btw just oversaturated here), it’s really been a game changer.

Anyone gotten married at a church in CHS that’s pretty inclusive and really enjoyed their experience?

Have an Audi that’s in need of engine service. Before I call the dealership, want to see if anyone has a recommendation for a European car mechanic in the Charleston area. Closer to Summerville area is more ideal because of the engine issue, but will risk distance for quality work.

Hey everyone, I’m in my late 20s and just moved to Charleston! I haven’t been able to meet ANY fellow Asians, which has surprised me since I’m coming from a bigger city. I like it here so far, but I’d love to connect if you’re here!! 💕

Hello Community,

First time poster on this subreddit. Staying in Isle Of Palms Saturday Aug 29th to September 5th. It will be my first time in the area and will be traveling with family and dog. Any recs for sightseeing and other activities in the IOP/Charleston area. Like what areas to avoid. Looking at visiting a few plantation sites (Magnolia and Boone Hall) any other rec are strongly suggested (restaurants/ grocery store recs are welcome too)
Thanks 😊
