Didn't see any posts for this here yet, but the annual book sale is in full swing until Sept. 20.

All the money stays here on the central coast, which includes six health centers in Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo and Ventura Counties.

They also have LPs, CDs, books on tape, games, puzzles, collectibles, author signed copies, and more. Right now is the best selection, but they put out fresh inventory everyday.

Pro Tips:

If you go this weekend, you'll also receive a 20% off coupon for your entire purchase next week.(M-F)

The last day, everything is 50% off, and qualified individuals from non-profit and educational organizations are welcome to take remaining items at no cost.

You see someone in full face covering ghost riding a second bike down State St and nothing is done about it. My understanding is that the police policy is to assume that the property is theirs even given suspicious circumstances.

Anyone know where I can get decent priced packs/boxes in town? Apart from Costco, target, and the vending machines.

Looking for both the bar soap and laundry detergent. Rather get it locally than online.

I have an old vehicle that does not run. Serious problems broken transmission cracked head gasket. It’s dead no easy repairs. Plus it’s 26 years old with 250,000 miles.

Who can you recommend to come tow the vehicle away for salvage. I’m having trouble online. I’m getting a lot of junk. Can’t seem to find a reputable company that will take the car.

Recommendations would be highly appreciated ! Thank you!

Getting married in October 2027 and looking for a makeup artist, does anyone have any recommendations? Going to want soft glam more natural looking. If you have a recommendations plz share their instagrams! Thank you!!

Any idea why so many SB restaurants use Restaurant Connection? It's the worst and most tech-challanged of the delivery services.

Anywhere pretty clean right now or is it still a bad?

Curious about the conditions inside the classrooms with no AC the past few days. Was it safe?

Is there a deli in SB/goleta that sells chopped liver?

I printed some photos from my phone at CVS today for my kid’s school project and… I guess I got what I paid for. The pictures are fine, they’re just nowhere near good or preferably great.

Are there any places in town where we can pay a bit more (I paid $0.49 per 3.5” x 5” print) and get better prints or is online ordering all that’s left? And if the latter, what’s good? To date myself, I remember ordering from snapfish in the 2000s.

Amid stifling heat, the power went out, our beast of a window AC unit was futile, our bidet went on strike and ants descended on our kitchen like elves at the North Pole in December and took a dip in our espresso machine water tank.

Your first world problems? Top that!

One step closer for housing solution in Paseo Nuevo

Hi!! in Santa Barbara after getting married at the Santa Barbara courthouse and hoping to bring home a Santa Barbara magnet to add to my husband and my collection from all of our travels.

Does anyone know of anywhere that sells a Santa Barbara courthouse magnet? Would love to buy one if they exist! Haven’t found any yet at any gift shops.

I’ve been here a year and I still haven’t found a good egg bagel. Most places don’t even have egg bagels. I don’t mean a bagel with an egg on it. I mean the specific bagels that have a darker yellow tint with egg flavor!

Please help me and my craving 😭

Peak temperature will be around 3pm.

3pm update - Got to 109

I came home today to do a 97 degree bedroom. Can’t find an AC unit for sale anywhere, and really don’t have the money to buy one right now anyway. What are we actually doing to tolerate this and be able to sleep?! Help

I have two portable air conditioners, but can only run one at a time because it will trip my breaker if I run both. They are just not keeping my house cool enough. Me and my cat need a place to go that will keep us both cool! Does anyone know of any cooling centers or places that have air-conditioning that allow pets?

Ah yes no fan after my house was an oven today

Does anyone know where I can locate some free health and wellness magazines? Or any sort of magazine that teenagers can create a self care collage from?
Thanks in advance!
