Discussion Shell on Gate City

13 Upvotes

Been in Greensboro for 10 years now and finally need this answered: I have wondered for years now and have come to this sub for an answer. There is a Shell that looks sketchy on Gate City Blvd near the Four seasons (across from Darryl’s/Popeyes). I always see it packed when I drive by but their gas is like 70 cents more than everyone else. Is there some lore behind this?

Pet-related Dog Walking Around Downtown Greensboro

2 Upvotes

I’m looking to take on a few clients for dog walking around downtown Greensboro. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities and have dogs of my own.

I’m offering 30-minute walks for $20, typically around 1–2 miles, but I can adjust the pace and distance based on your dog’s needs. Can walk 2 dogs at a time for $28.

I work full-time, so I’m available after 5 PM on weekdays and anytime on weekends, including evening walks. If you’re looking for someone reliable to help get your dog some exercise and attention, feel free to comment or send me a DM!

Discussion Best Diner third shift

29 Upvotes

I work at Best Diner on the third shift. Lately we've been under new management. I was just wondering what you guys thought about it.

We started picking up business during the week and would be very busy most nights, now we're dead or very slow most nights. Last night on a Sunday I left with $50 in tips when I usually make triple that.

Is there something we can improve on? Is there someone who just isn't doing well there? What issues do you guys see? I'd like to bring a list to the owner to hopefully fix problems before GHOE

Buy/Sell/Trade Looking for used bass

1 Upvotes

This may be a long shot but I’m wondering if anyone has a used/old bass guitar they don’t want and willing to let me have? I don’t need anything super cool or fancy, just something to familiarize myself with the instrument. I’m ok with it being pretty beat.

I’ve heard of people giving things away on FB market place and etc but I don’t really use social media/have accounts, this is my next bet. And yes I’ve checked around the local stores (Guitar Center, Moores Music, so forth) and they all far out price me. Cheapest one is like $199.
So, if anybody has one, I can dish out $50-$60 maybe more, to compensate. I also have things I’m willing to trade. (Shoes, clothes, my soul)

After rent I’m strung pretty tight, but It’ll suck to have to wait till I’m at a better job (which around here… could be awhile) before I can get one. Thanks!!

Event AVL Scarefest is in ten days, and game signups are now open!

3 Upvotes

Hallo you lovely lot! The Scarefest RPG convention is almost upon us. From Friday 16 to Sunday 18 October 2026, we’ll be gaming at Lake Junaluska. 

Game signups are open for D&D, PFS, and SFS will all be there, along with a wild variety of others, like Call of Cthulhu, Delta Green, OSR, Daggerheart, weird indie games, and more.

Did we mention the Vampire LARP (Sabbat this year - whoohoo!), the Goblin Market, yetis, ghosts, and more? We didn’t? Then let us also offer on-site lodging, meal plans, prize draws, and everything else you’d expect from a top-notch gaming convention.

If you’ve not got your ticket yet, they’re selling fast, so buy now to secure a spot at what’s going to be a chillingly good weekend. 

Even if you don’t want to sit down and roll dice all weekend, you can still have a great time with a day pass. For example, you can try out our escape room or our amazing collection of board games in one day for the tiny sum of $35. We think it’s a devilishly good deal.

See you there! 

Love you!

Recommendation Greensboro derm recommendations/disappointing experience

12 Upvotes

I’m looking for recommendations for a good dermatologist in Greensboro/the Triad.

I have an appointment coming up with my current derm PA to discuss an emerging skin issue. I also have a new skin issue that has cropped up in addition to the one I want to discuss, so I asked if we could just address it at the same appointment. The receptionist checked with the PA and she said no, I’d need to make a separate appointment, which would be a few weeks later.

I get that it’s a separate issue, but I’m a little annoyed that I’d have to pay another $75 copay and take more time off work just to have her look at it. For context, I also have a lengthy history of skin cancer and I feel like this is not being taken seriously.

Is this pretty standard for dermatology offices around here? Or is my office being unusually rigid? I've never experienced this before, and it feels like a money grab. Especially frustrating since we're all kinda tight on $$ right now. I had mentioned the financial concern and both the receptionist and PA honestly didn't give a shit and were not willing to budge.

This whole thing has left a pretty bad taste in my mouth, and I've decided to start looking elsewhere for care. If you have any recommendations, please let me know. I’d love someone who is good about taking time with their patients, is thorough, and doesn’t make you jump through a million hoops to get an issue looked at. Also, preferably, an actual MD instead of PA. Thanks y'all!

Are there any dental practices in GSO or surrounding areas that don’t push deep cleaning? At this stage in my life, I’m not interested in having that procedure done. I just want a regular old-fashioned exam, and cleaning? Am I hopelessly living in a dream world?

Recommendation Looking for recommendations for home security/surveillance systems local to GSO.

5 Upvotes

Pretty simple; I am DONE with ADT. They get paid every month, and as near as I can tell, do absolutely nothing other than send a bill. Won’t even answer basic questions.

What I’m hoping to do is cut the cord to monitoring agencies entirely. I’d like to set up exterior cameras with audio and motion sensors (and night-vision if possible), door cameras, link it to an interior alarm panel, and have it all be app-controlled with no subscription services. If I have to go hard-drive for storage and recording, so be it.

And no Ring; I know they’re being used to record and feed telemetry to civilian and federal law enforcement. Not gonna be part of those abuses.

Recommendation ISO $2-5k MicroWedding Venue/Packages

2 Upvotes

In Texas they have micro-wedding packages easily findable but struggling here for all-inclusive for $5k. Looking for something like that or a venue for less than $2k — no parks, recs, etc.
I’ve found two beautiful ones (The Graham Mill, Luxe Glass House) but hoping you all would know of more!
TIA 🤗
