FAMILY DOLLAR Locations

Here me out, thinking of the current government shutdown and only a couple days until many people loose their food assistance benefits. This is what I came up with. To help raise funds for grocery bills, as Snap (funds that help families buy groceries) benefits will not be renewed this Saturday for the many families in this town that rely on them.  Now more than ever we should come together as a community and support each other. For our community and the kids and families that live here. We cannot have a community with hungry kids and seniors. How it works: Any funds received, will be turned into Grocery Store Gift Cards (thinking $25 increments) To qualify email Proof of Income and o...

My wife, niece, and nephews (all adults) just spent six days in Colorado Springs, and you have the nicest people. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, we were greeted with smiles, kindness, and a willingness to help that I’ve never experienced in any of the many places I’ve lived and/or visited in this country. I witnessed drivers back their cars up when they were a little too far forward, so that pedestrians can move along the crosswalk safely and unimpeded. A couple stopped their truck and offered to take pictures of me and my wife at the top of a frigid Pike’s Peak. And in every store or restaurant, servers were friendly, engaging, and attentive. People said hello o...

“Makulu” comes from Southern African languages like Zulu and Xhosa, where it means *big* or *great*. The name captures the vision to take something small and everyday, like loyalty cards, and make it something bigger, more connected, and more useful. After a few months of tinkering, testing, and rebuilding, I’m excited to launch Makulu Rewards, a simple way to capture and store all your loyalty cards digitally. Most of us still carry plastic cards from every store imaginable. Makulu lets you add them in one place, generate a barcode, and save them directly to Google Wallet. You can also share your cards with family so everyone earns and redeems points together. It’s lightweight...

I got my cat Licorice 5 years ago, he came to me at about 4-6 weeks old. A homeless lady was just giving him away at a 7/11 parking lot so i took him home. It’s my opinion he was not ready to wean off yet but he grew strong and healthy in fact he has never gotten sick, ever (knock on wood) My issue is his behavior, Licorice is a “bad” cat. He is extremely aggressive, he could be chilling in the living room and out of nowhere darts to bite us (really hard), he is quite literally not afraid of anything and nothing will make him back away, if he wants to attack he will and me and my partner will literally hide from him sometimes. Me and my husband could be just sitting in the couch doin...

I've been stalked by my mom for the past 5 years. She was abusive throughout my childhood (no cps reports though). I completely cut off contact at 18 and moved away. She would show up at my house in another city but I'd have my roommates tell her to leave. She would call me, email me, and text me, leaving deranged messages about "god" and how I **** her, how I have so much evil in my heart, and send weird emojis (devil faces, angry faces). I blocked her everywhere I could. I moved to another state in 2023 and thought that I finally had peace. I went years believing that I was safe. A couple weeks ago I received three written letters in the mail at my home address from he...

Federal funding to programs that millions rely on, from early education to food and utility bill aid have shut down, leaving families scrambling for help. - Why it matters: As the shutdown marks its fourth consecutive week with no end in sight, the pain of federal closures is spreading far past government employees. - Driving the news: The double whammy of federal dollars drying up and looming monthly bills is set to deliver a punishing hit to Americans' pocketbooks on Nov. 1. - The anticipated **** to the nation's safety net comes after the Trump administration slashed benefits and targeted key programs in revamps through the president's marquee spending bill. - What they...

Found this great guide to tape-free seed envelopes online (though I’ll probably tape the last fold for safety). Fun way to use an old catalog. Original creator: https://woodlarkblog.com/diy-recycled-paper-seed-envelopes/

For any of this to make sense, you will need to read the two previous posts I made. I will link them in order, so click here [first](https://www.reddit.com/r/stories/s/yQuxCZW8NP) and then this one [second](https://www.reddit.com/r/stories/s/5ucVJ6ufOy). I fully intended to go to the police after making my last post, I really did. When I woke up this morning, I told myself I was done with it all and that I’d hand over the tape, explain everything, and finally let someone else deal with whatever the **** was happening at Final Cut Video. But when I walked out to my car after work, I saw that it had been broken into. The driver-side door was hanging wide open, and the glove compartme...

We're a family of 3 living in Portland, Maine. I work remotely making 250k a year and my wife is a stay at home mom for our 1 year old. We currently rent a 2 bedroom apartment in the city for $4,000 a month and have decided it's time to move. We've seen both Providence and New Haven recommended as affordable New England cities and plan to visit them and eventually move to one or the other. What we're looking for (in order of priority): * High walkability like being able to walk along trails, walk to stores, cafes, and restaurants. * Safety, we're from Maine so as you may guess we've never witnessed any dangerous crime or know of anyone who has, we don'...

Christmas 2021, Covid ravaged our home, and it took me some time to recover. While I've had chronic migraines my whole life, on February 24, 2022, I woke up with a migraine headache and the headache has never gone away. I have 15-20 or more migraine flair ups per month, I've seen more than 15 doctors and specialists since the beginning (spanning 3 different medical groups), and have now tried more than 30 (or maybe 40 by this point?) different medications or med combinations. I'm currently on an alternating 3 month cycle of Botox injections and getting IV infusion treatments of Vyepti, (so get botox, then 1.5 months later get Vyepti, then 1.5 months later get botox, etc.), get...

I've been living with family for the past two years to save money but the situation has gotten unbearable. Without going into too much detail it's affecting my mental health badly and I need to get out. I've been looking at apartments and finally found one I can afford but barely. The rent is doable with my current income but it's going to be tight. The bigger issue is that I literally have nothing for the apartment. No furniture, no dishes, no basic household stuff. I've been living in a furnished room so I never needed to buy any of it. I've been making lists of absolute essentials trying to keep costs down, checking thrift stores, Facebook marketplace, and ...
