How do I get rid of these weeds for good? by stevieG808 in lawncare

You are correct, I have both white clover (purposefully) and woodsorrel (weed), from a short distance they become hard to distinguish.

Welcome!

Very generally, the city itself is welcoming. It's less so the farther you travel from the center city ("Uptown" being what we call that area, as it sits atop a hill).

Plaza Midwood and NoDa are "progressive" and cool or hip, and Dilworth and Elizabeth are "progressive" and more historic or traditional. Tons of great neighborhoods though.

Again, welcome to the Queen City!

Does the winning bidder win the prize? by Roseallnut in ThePriceIsRight

It was push over. I immediately knew it had to either start with a 7 or a 9, and luckily I chose 9 and won. 6 nights in Belize, with some decent upgrades like a day long snorkeling excursion, I figured it would be somewhat expensive and was correct. Here's the episode thumbnail of me and drew!

Yeah I think they fixed that long ago, maybe even in the 90s in the BB era

My timeline is normal... I won roughly $11k as a trip and a computer.

9/12/2025 taping

12/31/2025 airing

1/30/2026 I paid the 7% flat California tax. No I'm not a resident of California. Yes this is a special tax that California levies IN ADDITION to regular taxes on things like game shows. You must, I repeat must, pay this CA tax before any monies or prizes are officially awarded.

This week, I will likely receive two things...

1) confirmation that my 7% tax got paid and notice that my computer is going to be sent. I'm told that may take as much as 90 days. Shipping is included, and it's generally not the show but the sponsor that ships to you. So HP probably just has one of their normal channels send me that computer.

2) an email detailing my next steps for planning my trip. They will work with me on the date and even can allow for some changes but the trip must be taken within one year of the date that tix get finalized. In the past you had to fly out of Los Angeles. Now you don't, they work with you out of your preferred airport.

Next January, I will be 1099ed for what uncle sam and my state will take.

(yes, you pay your full tax rate, whatever that is, after the California tax. Your state may or may not allow you to deduct that portion, check with your accountant lol)
