FAMILY DOLLAR Locations

**TICK TICK TICK TICK** Film became digital. Graphic design became AI. The two skills I had out of university have been superseded by better technology. That is one way time can change. You can change your car tyre and still be home for dinner, but when you are talking about an art form you have been working on for the best part of ten years, it still has the same grip on me as it did when I was a young man. I was not like the other lads—the real hard-*** lads who enjoyed painting trains. It just wasn’t on my menu. The point being, I have been chasing graffiti lines for a long time. I am an excellent writer, but when it comes to a really tight piece… well, it turns out a bit mor...

I Put My Dual Military Fat Fire Plan Into ChatGPT here are the results… What is ChatGPT missing? **Background**: I explained my family’s retirement goals, current assets, and gave a few conservative estimates to ChatGPT to confirm our dual military Fat Fire plan. I did not include UTMAs or 529s in our assets. We assumed we’d likely receive some disability based on multiple deployments, airborne jumps, surgeries, physical therapy, etc. We do not invest in TSP or IRA because we retire at 42 and dont plan to work afterwards outside of managing our rentals for the “real estate professional” tax qualification. Also flexibility, LTCG tax (0% on $98k for MFJ), ability to use margin, ...

I Put My Dual Military Fat Fire Plan Into ChatGPT here are the results… What is ChatGPT missing? **Background**: I explained my family’s retirement goals, current assets, and gave a few conservative estimates to ChatGPT to confirm our dual military Fat Fire plan.

I started on the style team in May of 2023, first serious job out of high school. I left for 3 months in July 2024 because of struggles with depression and addiction, and once I got my life back on track I returned to full time. I have worked my *** off at my store, doing projects and working every kind of shift back and forth, opening and closing and mid shifts. I loved my team, I still do, but since coming back this job has felt so different. Hours have been so inconsistent, and inconvenient. Closing and then opening, which was initially fine by me since that’s just adulthood, works ***** for everyone. I was raised to roll with the punches for a paycheck, but on November 8th I lost my mo...

Kristi Noem: The individual approached U.S. Border Patrol officers with a 9-millimeter semi-automatic handgun. The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently. Fearing for his life and for the lives of his fellow officers around him, an agent fired defensive shots. Medics were on the scene immediately and attempted to deliver medical aid to the subject, but he was pronounced dead at the scene. The suspect also had two magazines with ammunition in them that held dozens of rounds. He also had no ID. This looks like a situation where an individual arrived at the scene to inflict maximum damage on individuals and to kill law enforcement. About hundreds...

I watched Sinners a second time and realised this is not just a vampire movie at all. It’s packed with symbolism and small details that completely change how the story feels once you notice them. For example in the end, why Sammie says it was a "Beautiful Day" Before the vampires showed up, that juke joint was the only place these people were truly free. For one night, they weren't sharecroppers or second-class citizens. They were kings, dancers, and artists. Sammie calls it a beautiful day because it was the only time he felt his own power. The violence was the price of that freedom. Sammie choosing to carry on with the blues, against his father’s wishes, is a testamen...

MBTI: ISFJ. I have been thinking more as of late about my desire to have a boyfriend again, even though I know that I really need to work on myself. I have actually been aiming to work on getting more sleep/better quality sleep, and it is partly why I took an hour long walk earlier today (my doctor had advised that I start taking walks to ensure I am really knocked out by the time I get in the bed.) I am also planning on seeing the dentist again and have an appointment to finally be tested for a hormonal imbalance as well. I am working on really taking care of my mind and body before I start dating again. I am at a healthy weight, and always have been. I really want a man who has the mascu...

Single father trying to get my daughter the cheapest pack of diapers ($9 and change) and the small can of acid reflux formula ($25 and change) from the dollar store. I have $2 to my name right as I had to put a radiator in my yesterday, I don't get paid until Wednesday. I've been without a car for a week now and have been getting a ride to work with a coworker. Unfortunately my ride is no longer able to help me, and my mother that's been watching my daughter had to return home today. So I had to fix my car to get to work and be able to take my daughter to daycare. I have 2 diapers left and about a bottles worth of formula. Sorry for the long winded post, just wanted to be tran...

Hi. Sorry if this is bad writing, english is not my first language, but i need advice and to vent. Me and my boyfriend have been together almost 3 years. We live together with his 2 kids (6f and 4m). We have become a family and i truly love his kids. Their mother is not in the picture. I know my boyfriend has had a problem with alcohol in the past, he was open with me about it. I've had an ex who was an alcoholic. I have my own trauma with that and i'm dealing with it the best i can. I have told my boyfriend time to time that i'm not comfortable with his drinking, but i also know that i can't forbit him not to drink. So to the current situation. Last autumn he starte...

i’m using windirstat and it says the only large files are in steam but in steam it’s saying that they’re non steam files

Just talked to my grandpa and he suggested for me to move to Vacaville. He said the people are very nice and kind and that there is a big sense of community. He also said the community is tight and family oriented. I am sold on moving to Vacaville now. Im going to move sometime between March and May. Im going to use padsplit to rent a room without a credit check. That or im going to contact all landlords and ask who does and doesn't do a credit check. And Vacaville is part of the Bay Area and is actually affordable! I already love Vacaville. And im excited! Im gonna make a ton of new friends there and im gonna ride the BART on weekends and go to SF. I also will be working at a hotel the...

Hey Reddit, I’m an iOS developer, and about 13 years ago I built an app called Before Leaving. There’s actually a crazy story behind why I created it. Around that time, life was… intense. Work was stressful, and my mom was battling cancer, so I was juggling both. One night, after taking care of her following a chemo session, I went to work at a coffee shop until 3 AM. I was mentally exhausted, drained, and completely stressed. In that state, I somehow left the coffee shop and went home… without even taking my car. I woke up the next day and couldn’t remember taking it at all. I panicked, took my uncle with me, and went to the police to file a stolen car report. On the way back, ...

First off i apologize for the long back story. So back in 2023 my grandfather had an unexpected fall. We got to him. Called 911. Thought he'd come back home but the fall and time on the ground was too much and in time he was sadly gone in a few months. Then it all began... It took months to get proper documents needed from the govt (death certificate, the Will etc). Then the govt wanted to charge us hundreds of thousands of dollars in capital gains taxes (Canada) on the farm he also owned (where I currently live at home) it was eventually settled and we wont have to pay that much. During that time we as a family decided to liquidate his possessions and household items in a garage...

My birthday is coming up soon and I've been trying to pick a cake to make/buy and found this Swedish Princess cake that sounds awesome. I've never tried it and can't buy one at any bakery near me but I like that it has pastry cream and raspberry jam. I haven't been a fan of standard buttercream cakes in the past but have really enjoyed Boston Creme Pie, Napoleons, Tres Leches Cake, and strawberry jam filled cream cheese cupcakes so the Princess Cake seems like it might be a great thing to try. I was wondering if anyone has experience making this at home and could tell me how difficult it might be and how long it takes, since I'd be making this with my family and we...

My boyfriend (29M) and I (27F) live in the Bay Area and have been together for almost 3 years. We are seriously talking about marriage, but what started worrying me is that despite earning well, he is basically living paycheck to paycheck. He barely spends on himself, avoids travel, buys cheap clothes, and is constantly stressed about money. That made me want to understand where his money is actually going. After looking into it, I found out that he sends between $1200–$1600 every month to his mom (48F) and sister who live in India. His parents are divorced, and since then everything has fallen on him. Even while studying, he supported them using his savings. His mom stopped working as so...

I took two expired pink dye dollar store tests that came out with dark pink lines so I went out and bought a store brand early detection test ( period is due this week) I I know the lines are faint but they're there right? my 14mo old is currently sleeping and I'm over here thinking of all the possibilities

problem is that things do happen to us and our families that we’re not strategically thought out well enough. Not lecturing but after those humbling response, the debtor is really listening and believing the art or personal sales or the art if persuasion with the Debt reconstruction whichever it may be. For me they paid 20% less then promised and before I knew it I had overpaid them by $10,000. Next thing I am sent an email saying I am graduated their program and this other debt loan bank is going to actually give you a loan on the remaining balance. by the way we will charge you for putting this little thing together for you. And now, your remaining balance just jumped up 3,500 and your n...

I am a full time photographer, and I write a lot of creative/shoot ideas, and notes from shoots in a leather bound journal. I’ve always just used random pens, but decided this year, I wanted to get something cool and unique for it. I had been searching online, but then today walked into a thrift store and saw this Colibri set. A ballpoint, a mech pencil, and a letter opener. Coolest part is the Ore-Ida emblems on the clips. I live in Idaho and have family who worked at Ore Ida years ago, and now work at JR Simplot; who owns OreIda now. Super cool history. Just wanted to share.

Location: California I have had this idea in my head (see title), and I’m not sure how to figure out if it’s illegal or not. My background is that I have been living in my vehicle since 2023. I really enjoy it and do not see myself moving into a building anytime soon. When I originally moved into my car, I lived in Orange County. I used my mailing address (a PMB at a UPS Store) for pretty much everything, even for my car insurance. I have since moved to Ventura County for a new job. I have not set up my mailing address yet, but I will soon (it will be at a UPS Store in Ventura County). Here’s my concern, I’ve started having this fear that if I were to get into a car accident...
