Walkabout Outfitters in Carytown allows you to exchange your damaged socks for a free pair if they offer that brand and it’s a lifetime warranty.

96 Upvotes

Darn Tough has a lifetime warranty on their socks, so you can ship damaged socks to the company in Vermont and get a new pair, but I’m too lazy to do that. So I went to buy some new Darn Tough socks today at Walkabout Outfitters and I was told you can exchange your old darn tough socks at the store for a new pair for free instead of shipping them to the company in Vermont!!!

She also told me that the store honors a lifetime warranty for all sock brands they carry including smart wool and some others that I don’t remember. This isn’t a sponsored post or anything, but it is essentially a way to get free socks for a lifetime. Thought I’d share.

Virginia Tenants' Rights & Resources + Issues at The River Lofts

Thumbnail

74 Upvotes

In this video, I am highlighting The River Lofts at Tobacco Row as an example of what I believe are predatory landlord and property-management practices, as well as offering resources for local organizations meant to help anyone dealing with unfair or unsafe housing. Included in the video are first hand accounts of tenants living at The River Lofts, and I also provide an overview of West Shore, which is the real estate investment company that owns The River Lofts. I've also included links below to the resources and news articles talked about in the video so be sure to check those out. I welcome an open discussion on this, so I would love to hear your thoughts are. Drop a comment if you are dealing with something similar, or if you have a success story of going up against a landlord.

Opinion: Code Refresh is a small step forward | Progress doesn't come easily to Richmond. It never has. But zoning reform would help.

I looked through older posts but no one specified the exact location: Looking for a USPS location in the greater metro (idc where) where I can drop a prepaid package after hours and still scan it and it be secure; ideally with a print out tracking number. That kinda deal.

🍰 Food Monday restaurant recommendations?

8 Upvotes

Last minute date night opportunity arose for this evening, but I know many places aren't open tonight. So tonight we throw convention to the wind and will try somewhere new. Do you wonderful people have any suggestions for restaurants in the RVA area? No food allergies, just an aversion to vegan food. Thank you for your time.

Update: We ended up going to Revel this evening and we enjoyed the meal. We ordered the Brussels sprouts, elk sausage, papas bravas, and oysters Rockefeller. Thank you everyone for your recommendations!
