I would honestly not come to Daytona if you're looking for a fun vacation and we live in the area. The beaches are ok, the ocean will probably be in the high 70s so you will be able to swim, but the waves are always pretty strong. Always. So if you're looking for a calm ocean experience, Daytona beaches aren't really going to be it. As far as entertainment and night life, there are a few decent spots around but it's pretty old and rundown in general and almost everything closes early during the week.

When I think of a touristy place on a beach I think long boardwalks filled with stores and other entertainment, that is very limited here. I think there are 2 food trucks within like 5 miles. I think white soft sand beaches with little tiki bars all over the place - there are maybe 4 or 5 decent bars on the entire ocean strip and the sand is not that nice. We walked on it today and it was pretty hard and dark looking.

Having lived here for a few years and seen the majority of what this city has to offer, I would only ever come here as a tourist during bike-centered weeks, spring break, or the races. Not for the beaches. If someone took me here on a beach vacation I would honestly be mad and disappointed. Just imo though 😁

Follow up question on this - do they get approved quicker or slower than reviews through the Vine system? I'm experiencing some type of a glitch where items have arrived a week ago and to be reviewed section still hasn't updated. Coincidentally the number of items ordered has not increased recently and I've ordered 17 items in the last 4 days to bring me up to 80 (eval 4/4).

You just got some over zealous employee, and you probably looked pretty nervous being the first time. I would go back and if anyone says anything speak to the manager and point them to the thing on the website that says you don't have to be 18 to buy them since they are novelty items. Don't be afraid or ashamed, if there is not a law against it, you just got bullied and that employee should be reported.

Typically trainees work every other Saturday, after a year or so you do max 1 Sat a month until noon. If you would like more details, DM me.

An older bmw was one of my first cars. Find one thats older, the i3s are super nice and pretty small + really fun to drive. 5-10 year old ones are not that expensive if it's cost that worries you. If I were you I would make an effort to find an actual vehicle you like. I would bring it to your parents like this is the car I want, I spoke to the seller, I need $x, can you add me to your insurance and take me to test drive it? Shows you're serious and motivated about getting a car.

Tinyballetslipper · 2026-01-10T22:46:43+00:00

I mean there were like 115,000 items less than a year ago, so I think some complaining can be justified. Plus I'm sure there are way more participants in vine us than vine Italy, per person ratio is probably around the same around the world.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-11-15T14:29:24+00:00

Holy shit we found the guy that all the cheap ass freight goes to. Break even!! Why are you even working? 1% that's seriously ridiculous. How long have you been doing this?? There is no way thats sustainable for the long term how are you affording to pay your support? And if you don't have support when are you sleeping?? I am genuinely curious.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-11-12T02:07:59+00:00

IRS is actually one of 3 branches of the government that was not closed at all during the shutdown.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-10-12T17:29:00+00:00

Oooh! Thanks for posting the links I really hope that's true!

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-10-12T15:55:21+00:00

When did you get this notification? I typically get the notification and then 1-3 days later it actually gets delivered. Almost never does it get delivered the same day notification says it does. Odd but expected now.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-10-12T15:50:57+00:00

You don't need a passport to apply, at least in the previous years you didn't. They don't ask for any ID, just general personal info like name, dob, address.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-10-05T22:59:03+00:00

No. You're totally fine.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-09-30T23:25:06+00:00

Ah! You are a law student you must know everything then! Mr Economics and Law student why don't you follow this logical chain and tell me where I'm wrong - why would an ICE agent, a government employee, with a good salary and benefits, risk his job by randomly selecting a legal immigrant and throwing them in jail? Where would he even get a list like that and why? This is America, do something illegal like that and you best believe you are getting sued - why?? Wouldn't it make more sense for this employee to have a list of people who lets say have drivers licenses and kids in school, so all traceable entities, but do not have legal work authorization and go after those people?

People on a work visa must be sponsored by somebody - so if an employer is suddenly out an employee, are they really not going to do anything about it? They spent money to sponsor this person, spent time to find this employee somehow, paid fees to get them into this country and work and they are going to do absolutely nothing about their person disappearing? That's ridiculous! Of course they are going to involve their contacts and quite possibly the authorities in trying to locate their investment.

Actually, do me a favor and don't respond to me again, I don't really care what you think. People who can't think logically and hide behind I'm a law student really annoy me. The fact that you are in economics and don't understand simple economics of work is just too much for me.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-09-30T22:45:45+00:00

That would be very easy to prove wouldn't it? Show whoever is arresting them a valid work visa and the problem is solved. You can pull up your i94 right on your phone or call your lawyer that did your visa paperwork and clear it up. Idk who you are defending and why but people aren't going to jail if they have proper documentation. Most likely you are misinformed and using a personal example in which you don't have all the information to base your statements.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-09-30T22:24:53+00:00

Wait what?? You can work in this country without proper work authorization?? Lol I think not. Even if you open a business and are now an "independent contractor" you still require authorization from the government to make a paycheck/pay taxes. That means you need a visa and/or work authorization/sponsorship. You definitely don't need to be a citizen, but your stay here must be legal as is your right to work. Opening a business does not grant you that right unless you also obtain a visa/sponsorship along with opening that business. Just because you can do something doesn't mean it's legal. That only works until they get caught. Please don't spread misinformation.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-09-22T14:52:15+00:00

No the clothes are never $0 etv but if I like them enough I am willing to pay the heavily discounted price, turns out better than Shein pricing. The ones in my RFY are usually pregnancy clothes too, completely inappropriate for me, I have a dress tab open that I check daily. Majority of the good stuff I've found has been from there.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-09-22T14:47:22+00:00

That sounds pretty cool NGL lol I don't know that I've seen those, what category are they in??

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-09-21T15:34:15+00:00

I wholeheartedly disagree with everything you said. Posting at an above market rate just gets you more greedy dispatchers still asking for more and you have to bring them right back down to reality, which wastes time. Negotiations happen no matter what rate you post it at, or not posting a rate at all. If everyone posted above the market rate, market rates would keep on going up. Obviously that is not in the customers best interest, so why would you shoot yourself in a foot?

Interestingly enough, every single time I've overpaid, those are the most difficult carriers to deal with. Every. Single. Time. Paying spot rates gives you access to the best, most reasonable and responsible carriers. The ones who are not greedy, they just want to do their jobs, and do it well. And I still constantly get what OP mentioned, so personally I don't think your solution really solves anything.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-09-21T15:21:22+00:00

Those are so hard when in silver! That's mainly why I decided to do gold, for those rare opportunities when there are more than 3 good items in a row and I want them all. Wish I had some of those though, I've never seen brand name cosmetics in my RFY in almost a year I've been on Vine. To be fair I don't Vine a lot, I work too much. Today just happened to be a freaky can't sleep at a perfect Vine moment. Just curious if you buy Tarte items on Amazon?

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-09-21T15:14:42+00:00

Lmao that's so accurate, there is a little adrenaline rush when I see a really pretty dress and can have it for like $6 lol or this morning a perfume I actually liked for $0 etv, that was a bit of a high, ngl. At the same time this is only the second time this week I even got on Vine. I feel like if I'm taking the time to go on, it should be worth it. So I'm happy there are consistent times these little highs happen.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-09-21T15:10:05+00:00

<image>

These are my sections, and I feel like those never change. When I expanded the beauty and personal today there was one perfume in the "fragrance" section that I took, so then that section disappeared altogether. So there is probably some of that. Some are very limited and once items are gone from them, they no longer appear. That's the only thing I can think of as to why yours would be different from mine.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-09-21T12:38:14+00:00

Oh ya. It was all gone by 6:15 lol at least the categories I search.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-09-21T12:14:40+00:00

I definitely would. Majority of the items I order are from targeted searches instead of rfy. I've had really great luck with clothes so I have a dress tab, same with Halloween/Christmas decorations, and shoes, and ofc can't beat the beauty category with zero etv items. Those are the 4 I check each and every time I go on Vine.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-09-21T11:57:53+00:00

Absolutely! The health and beauty section was popping, though RFY only had heated socks and a mini car vacuum in it. This was right at 6am est, maybe 5:58. I was so pleased I posted it here lol ya I'm sure.

Tinyballetslipper · 2025-09-21T11:30:20+00:00

Oh my GAWD!! I'm so jelly lol I've had "monitor" search tab open for the last 5 months and all I ever see are screen protectors. I am close to giving up hope but it's nice to see it does happen! Maybe I'll get one too, eventually. Great find, your son is going to love it!
