Hey everyone! It will be my first time visiting San Diego with my husband in February (4 day stay). We are looking for a nice, clean, safe hotel. Any recommendations would be amazing! I would prefer if it were under $450 a night but can be flexible.

Thank you!

As title suggest. I have free time this weekend so have an opportunity to travel. San Diego has always been on my list.

Would this weekend be a good time to visit ?

We usually go to the San Diego zoo. Thinking of switching it up next July for safari park and Lego land. Is one day of each enough? Any suggestions for where to stay? We usually do paradise point but it’s a bit far from legoland.

I’m 19F and it’s my first Halloween in San Diego! 🎃💕 Any girls around my age wanna hang out tomorrow afternoon? Girls only please! 🫶

In and around San Diego. It’s her first Halloween 🎃! So excited!

I am planning to lease an apartment in the carmel terrace community in rancho bernado. I am seeing some mixed reviews on google regarding the community. Would appreciate any inputs/review on this community?

Basically looking for 1 bed apartments within 20-30 min driving distance to kearney mesa for less than $2500 rent. Appreciate any suggestions here as well. Thank you.

Hey everyone,

I’m a 26yo French guy visiting San Diego for the first time, and I’ll be landing on Thanksgiving Day (Nov 26). Great timing, I know.

I’ll be traveling solo, and I’d really love to experience an actual American Thanksgiving rather than just grabbing dinner at a restaurant. I know it’s mostly a family holiday, which is actually part of what makes me curious about it.

Does anyone know of any local gatherings, potlucks, or Thanksgiving dinners where a visitor might be welcome?

I’d obviously be happy to contribute, and I could even bring a nice bottle of French wine to share. Not looking for a free meal, just hoping to experience the holiday with some locals and meet new people.

Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks!

I live near the pala reservation and at 12:33AM just about 20 minutes ago I saw a flash of light in the sky and looked up to see what looked like a large star but it was completely stationary and neon orange and MUCH bigger than a star, maybe like 1/6 the size of the moon, and right next to it was what appeared to be a slowly falling object that resembled a comet without a tail. I pulled out my phone to take a photo but the orange light vanished and then I watched the other thing next to it fall for about 5 minutes before it disappeared behind a mountain range on the horizon. I have seen some weird stuff but this shook me, anyone else see this? It wont let me attach the photo

Hi everyone! Does anyone know of a family-friendly farm in or within about 10–15 miles of San Diego where we can buy farm products and also see the animals? I’d love to take my son for a visit. Thank you for any recommendations! 🐓🐐🌾

The title says it all. My birthday is later this week, and I'd like to go somewhere where reservations do not have to be made. I am fine spending up to $150 on food and drinks, even going so far as to splurge $200 total if I really like what they're providing. Ideally, I'd like to order dessert and get the birthday special.

For cuisines that I like, we have...

• Italian
• French
• Japanese
• Chinese

I am open to trying more, though!

I don't drink, and I don't eat pork, so I hope there will still be fun and tasty options! Additionally, if there's a formal dress code, that's fine, as I have these expensive silk gowns to wear. Naturally, I need to bus it there, so please do not give a place that's not near a bus stop or the trolley station.

Thank you so much, everyone, for your time, consideration, and suggestions!

FYI: I live in La Jolla, but I have only ever survived off of grocery runs to Ralph's. It's about time that I appreciate the local fine-dining scene.

I wanna volunteer in san Diego. Can someone suggest me good organizations

Where can I buy a kids costume that isn’t going to break the bank? Thanks!

Hi everyone! 😊

Have you been told you need a deep cleaning, but the cost is just too expensive? Or has it been a few years since your last dental cleaning?

I know dental care can be incredibly expensive, especially when it comes to deep cleanings (Scaling and Root Planing), which can cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars depending on the treatment needed.

But what if you could receive that dental care for completely FREE? 🦷✨

I’m currently a dental hygiene student, and I’m looking for patients who need dental cleanings, especially those who have been putting off treatment because of financial concerns or haven’t had a cleaning in a long time.

Whether you’ve already been told you need a deep cleaning or you’re simply unsure about the condition of your teeth and gums, I would love to help!

✨ Services may include:
-Comprehensive oral health assessment
-Dental X-rays (if needed)
-Periodontal evaluation and gum measurements
-Regular dental cleaning or deep cleaning (Scaling and Root Planing), depending on your needs
-Oral cancer screening
-Personalized oral hygiene education

💗 EVERYTHING IS COMPLETELY FREE! NO INSURANCE NEEDED!

📍 Location:
Concorde Career College
4393 Imperial Ave., Suite 100
San Diego, CA 92113

⏰ IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

Because this is a student learning clinic, appointments typically last 3–4 hours, and depending on your oral health needs, treatment may require multiple visits.

All procedures are performed under the supervision of licensed dental professionals. We will first complete a comprehensive assessment to determine what type of cleaning is appropriate for you.

🦷 Why Is Dental Care Important for Your Overall Health?

Did you know that your oral health is connected to your overall health?

This is especially important for individuals with systemic conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and respiratory conditions.

For example, diabetes can increase your risk of gum disease, while untreated gum disease can make blood sugar more difficult to manage. Gum disease has also been associated with cardiovascular disease and certain respiratory complications.

Dental cleanings aren’t just about having a beautiful smile. They’re also about maintaining healthy gums and supporting your overall health!

Even if you haven’t had a cleaning in years, it’s never too late to start taking care of your oral health. Everyone deserves a comfortable, judgment-free environment where they can receive the care they need.

📲 INTERESTED? CONTACT ME!
If you’re interested in becoming a patient or would like more information, please feel free to text me directly!
📞 (619) 567-9702

I would be more than happy to answer any questions and help you schedule an appointment! 😊

Even if you don’t need a cleaning yourself, I would truly appreciate it if you could share this with someone who might benefit from free dental care.
Everyone deserves a healthy smile, and finances shouldn’t have to be the reason someone goes without dental care. 🦷✨

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my post! 😊

Weird question but I gotta know…

I live in Memphis and it freaking stinks. Literally. So many people here bathe themselves, their cars, their homes/apartments in the most offensive, cheap presumes, colognes, and air fresheners. I can’t handle it. I walked through a parking lot a few days ago past someone with their car door open. Migraine with vomiting the next morning. Got a little better, had to go outside of my apartment yesterday, apartment across from us is leaking air freshener. The breezeway is full of it. This morning, sick again.

Broken down cars here, garbage everywhere - it’s hideous. The heat and humidity, no air flow - it’s a recipe for the most offensive smells. There are a lot of other reasons to leave, too, obviously.

My husband and I want to live where we (i especially) can breathe. We’re not concerned about COL. We don’t make enough now, but we will find a way. I know how to make money but I have to live where I can function.

But what I want to know is, does the air move as well as I imagine there in SD? Does the coast really smell clean and fresh? Do a lot of people out there bathe in Glade like they do here?

Can’t find a good one to save my life, help!

is it worth trying to fish? what lures bait would work?

Hi! Trying to book a whale watch. Does anyone know where the orcas were last spotter off SD?

I have a concert tmr and ive never brought my pen with me inside a venue I dont wanna have to throw away my pen if they dont let me.

Hi everyone!

I’m a first-time homebuyer in San Diego County, currently looking to purchase a home in the $650K–$700K range.
Here’s my financial situation:
Annual household income: ~$120,000
Family size: 4
Credit score: ~780
Location: San Diego County (primarily San Marcos/Escondido)
Mortgage quote: 5.5% on a 7/1 ARM through SDCCU
I’ve been researching first-time homebuyer assistance programs, particularly, along with other down payment and closing-cost assistance programs.
Based on my income and household size, I believe I may qualify for certain programs, but I need help confirming eligibility.
Here’s what I’m trying to accomplish:
I’d like to work with a lender or mortgage broker who has actual experience successfully helping buyers obtain WISH grants or similar assistance programs.
However, there’s one important catch.
I don’t want to sacrifice my mortgage interest rate just to receive a grant.
I’m already getting a competitive 5.5% rate on a 7/1 ARM through SDCCU. Ideally, I’d like to find a lender who can offer a similar rate while also helping me qualify for and secure grant funding.
For example, getting $20K–$30K in assistance sounds great, but if it means accepting a significantly higher interest rate, I’m not sure the long-term math works out.
My questions:
Has anyone in San Diego County successfully received first-time homebuyer grant recently?
Which lender or mortgage broker did you use? I’d especially appreciate recommendations from people who actually received funding.
Were you able to obtain the grant while still getting a competitive mortgage rate?
Are there lenders offering 7/1 or 7/6 ARM rates around 5.5% who also participate in these programs?
How much assistance did you actually receive, and were there any hidden costs, higher rates, or restrictions?
Are there other assistance programs I should explore with my income and family size?
I’m not necessarily looking for a zero-down mortgage. I have savings available for the down payment. My goal is to take advantage of any grants I’m eligible for while keeping my total borrowing costs as low as possible.
I’d really appreciate recommendations for lenders or brokers with proven experience in these programs, along with any real-life experiences or lessons learned.
Thanks in advance!

Brand new to San Diego and I haven’t had the time to really explore on my own yet until this weekend. Been craving Mexican all week and really curious what place is the best in yalls opinion specifically looking for a baller ACP. I’m in the Chula Vista area. Also need friends so HMU!! :)

I’m a local high school senior in Del Mar and built a free site that checks if a specific e-bike is legal for a specific rider where they ride, using each state’s e-bike law, plus a mods check and a bike finder. It’s for a student hackathon, and I’d love honest feedback on what’s confusing or wrong: https://is-it-an-ebike.vercel.app
