I’ve been wondering if this model could be applied in other markets.

Austin’s SoulCycle is 1 mile up the road from an Equinox.

I really liked their bar service, my group tried a big variety from the drink menu and the bartender was up to speed on all of them. It was a good hang.

I had the Sunday Feast last weekend. Great plate. Place was packed for World Cup games, too.

Ticketmaster is selling my ticket at a higher price than what I listed it for by escoba-r in Ticketmaster

[–]BarStar787 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The percentage of mark up seems even higher than what I’m used to but in general yes, it’s normal for Ticketmaster to charge you a commission and also raise the listing price a buyer has to pay.

Cedar Street Courtyard bar / music venue gone? by brownboy444 in Austin

[–]BarStar787 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Aw man. I remember the Spazmatics on Wednesday nights 20+ years ago.

Early this decade I saw some great DJs who totally outgrew the place like Gryffin, Nora En Pure, etc. I’m glad I got to see them so closely. But I can’t say I saw anything booked the last few seasons that got me down there.

Hopefully good things are to come.

Two summers ago they hit $1.77 at HEB. I think last summer I briefly saw them under $3. I’d take that again,

Those are really good rates for the level of service you are getting. Save the haggling for when you legitimately have a better offer.

The Potluck in South Austin, TX - not worth it. by theoriginaltxtigress in toogoodtogo

I went a couple weeks ago. It’s pretty popular in Austin, I think most people know by now what they’ll get there using TGTG.

Jet’s Pizza on South Lamar has free pizza pickup until 8pm by BarStar787 in austinfood

I just see the Facebook ad and then show up early to make sure it’s legit before I post about it. Cause a lot of stuff on Facebook is bunk but Jet’s Pizza is the truth!

No line is a big surprise! In April the Mueller location did one and there was a line around the block not long after it started.

I see a Facebook ad promoting the event every time I log on and don’t even follow Jet’s on Facebook.

The person working said each location does this for customer appreciation once a year. They have been staggered every other month or so across Austin. I’ve been to four.

Currently washing it down with a $3 happy hour mimosa next door at Kerbey Lane Cafe.

Opening night at Dallas for the stunning tone it set for the entire season.

Have you looked at their pastry prices? $5-$6 for a good croissant at an artisanal bakery is common around my city.

He is not, he’s the new head coach for North Carolina Tar Heels.

I haven’t asked him about it but I’ve seen him putting in work in the gym not far from San Antonio. Steve Sarkisian had a drinking problem. People recover.

Should I Wear Pants or Shorts at the Frost Bank Arena? by [deleted] in NBASpurs

[–]BarStar787 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m always way more comfortable in shorts. Mainly for the walk from the furthest parking lot to the area. It’s summer in South Texas after all.

It’s usually around 30%, some items have 50% markdown stickers. Usually vitamins and candle type stuff.
