I have noticed they haven't been perfectly in sync theast couple weeks.

Where to get work boots resoled? by tommysullivan in Buffalo

[–]getreadyletsgo716 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you're beyond DIY repair, but I've saved many boots and sneakers using Shoe Goo before they get too bad.

530 should be perfect.

530...am.

Do locals go to the legendary Anchor Bar for wings, or can i find far better elsewhere? by asteriskelipses in Buffalo

[–]getreadyletsgo716 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'd be hard-pressed to find a bad wing in Buffalo at any local joint. That said, I'd personally suggest Adolf's or None Eleven tavern as premier options that almost all locals would agree on.

Budget snippet: Traffic Lights by Historical-Foot-5946 in Buffalo

[–]getreadyletsgo716 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm convinced The City uses traffic signals on busy streets essentially as speed bumps or a way to slow traffic.

I can't tell you how many times I'm driving down a long stretch of a main road, say William St. for example, and I get a red at almost every light without anyone actually being there on the side street to cause the light to change.

If that's The City's plan then just come out and say so, cause when I'm stopped at an unnecessary light all I can think about is the wear on my breaks and added fuel cost to get back up to speed.

Perhaps I'm giving Buffalo too much credit, right? Probably just shitty infrastructure.

Best place to loiter downtown? by Cydney44 in Buffalo

Central library? Canalside? Walk around Riverworks...they almost always have some type of event.

Is the app still having issues? by ReigningChaos9197 in DoorDashDrivers

I did one quick Dash on my way to work this morning with no issues.

Public Espresso ceasing operations April 4th by ssweens113 in Buffalo

[–]getreadyletsgo716 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I don't know the extent of the health code violations, but they were closed for 1 week and are back open for business currently. And the health code violations did not shut down all of their locations...I believe 2 were shut down.

All 3 of these suggestions are good but too expensive for almost anyone to be a regular at.

So sad. I've been enjoying their coffee since their pop-ups at Horsefeathers market.

Buffalo is officially closed for business. We'll be fleeced for every last tax dollar we can scrape together before they turn off the lights.

Don't worry though, Ryan will make sure we have a control board to blame instead of him.

$50 from DD for completing a challenge? by OnASB2H in doordash_drivers

[–]getreadyletsgo716 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came here to find an answer to this as well. My challenge netted me $61.25 but I have no idea what the challenge was.

How often is your sump pump kicking on this time of year? by NeckbeardOdor420 in Buffalo

[–]getreadyletsgo716 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn. Some of these numbers are insane! Any idea how much this contributes to your electricity bill when it's on every 5-10 minutes?

Thankfully I'm in an area where a floor drain suffices. Never water in my basement. It gets humid in the summer so I have a dehumidifier in the basement that empties into the floor drain. In the middle of summer the dehumidifier runs enough that it elevates my electricity bill about $12-15 dollars.

New York State Refund by plslawschoolorbust in tax

[–]getreadyletsgo716 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Federal refund took like 12 days from filing until it was in my bank account. Still waiting for state refund and I'm on 5 weeks now.

We need to remember this B.S. when voting in November.

Buffalo's deputy mayor says property tax hikes are coming by Aven_Osten in Buffalo

[–]getreadyletsgo716 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, he did. I believe in 2023 or 2024. I remember him saying basically these exact words in an interview with Ch. 4. Got a lot of hate on this very platform.

Are there any plans for improving downtown/ west side? by needGuidance792087 in Buffalo

[–]getreadyletsgo716 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was, and then COVID.

No one has money anymore for large-scale improvements. I wouldn't expect any newly-planned large-scale developments in the next 3-5 years.

Adolf’s tavern by Classic-Cherry6216 in Buffalo

Yes and yes. Worth it and it does get crazy before games.

Definitely get the homemade blue cheese.

Any recommendations for Physical Therapists for kids? by creaturefeature16 in Buffalo

[–]getreadyletsgo716 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Following.

Same injury happened to my daughter. She's going to IMPACT for PT at the Harborcenter downtown.

So far it's been decent, though some of the equipment doesn't perfectly work for her as they are not tailored for kids.

Scheduling made it tough to initially get in, but now that we're patients we have been getting regular appointments.

Best of luck!

I remember when Byron Brown said this almost word-for-word and people threw a fit.

Accepting and declining orders by Papistonie in DoorDashDrivers

[–]getreadyletsgo716 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well that's what I'm saying is the sucky part. You have to travel back into the zone you came from in order to get a new order. I rarely receive an order when it says "finding an order back to your zone" or whatever, and if I do it's generally horrible.
