I’ve lost power more often this past year than the rest of my life combined. It’s been at least ten times in the past 6 months.
What is happening? Is there anything we can do - complain, claim credits, class action? We’re at 64th & Ward.
Finally considering getting a cooling unit!
Xcel has rebates for heat pumps, but I’m from the mid-west and these are fairly new to me. Does anyone have one?
If so, do you find it effective?
Has it impacted your bills vs an AC?
They are infesting our raspberry patch. I go out every day and get as many as possible. I use a small bowl with a drop of soap and water. Usually they will just fall into it, but sometimes I need to shake the plant or even pick it off. I can get as many as 30 at a time! It does seem to help. They eat the leaves and can kill the plant. Last year our patch was almost dead by mid summer.
or did people have a ton of fun celebrating last night? all you concerned Karens calling the police are the same that want to defund them… Have fun
Anyone currently using TDS 1g fiber and thinking about switching to T-Mobile when it's available? We're paying $76 for TDS. Customer service is meh. We have had a line sitting on our fence, unburied since late Fall. But it's not bad (and service is better than Xfinity so I'm not complaining too much).
T-Mobile would be $60, I assume with taxes and such, so not a giant savings... Curious if anyone has worked with TM fiber to suggest the switch might be worth it.
Does anyone know if YP Hello at Ralston and Wads is still open for business? They've been closed for the past week and their app shows them as closed.
to the neighbors who are setting off fireworks, what the fuck? look i get that we’re “in the city” or whatever but LARGE swaths of our state is on fire, RAGING fire- why the fuck would you think today would be a good time for amateur fireworks???? i get you’re excited and your kids wanna see the big flashy booms and shit but if i could herd every person who has lit a sparkler and push you out to sea on a blow up mattress, i wouldn’t think twice about it 😤
Sprained my ankle pretty bad at Apex Center public skate yesterday, and I just wanted to share how the folks there really came through for me. One dude came to stand by me so I didn’t get run into while I was sitting on the ice unable to move. Another guy got me up and supported my weight as I hobbled off the ice. Skate guard got me an ice pack. A few other people were just saying nice things and giving me encouragement in a fairly distressing moment.
In a world full of negativity, I wanted to share this example of human kindness from our community. I’m super grateful to these strangers and will keep it in mind the next time I have the opportunity to pay it forward.
Hi! This is Ryan Hecht, VP of Marketing at the Greater Arvada Chamber.

It’s like they forgot about the quiet zone…

Just wondering if anyone has done it in the past and has any opinions. Seems like pretty decent price to try a lot of different whiskeys.
I have no details. People were coming from that direction saying that's what happened. Everything seemed pretty chill by the time I took these pictures. Feel free to post any details here if you know more than I do.
Can anyone here recommend a good orthodontist for Invisalign? I’m 31 and have some minor crowding and crookedness. Thanks!
One of the best injectors in Colorado just moved her spa to Old Town Arvada.
Gina, from The Natural Aesthetic, and Clementines have teamed up and it’s amazing!!! Gina Pilcher is a PA, master injector and trainer. She even travels around the country to see clients and train other injectors. Definitely the Go-To place for Botox, filler and other facial aesthetic injectables and treatments. 100% recommend, we have a gem in Old Town with The Natural Aesthetic!!!
Hi all,
I just got back from a road trip and would like to get my Kia K5 sedan serviced. I have taken my car to the dealership and to a few oil change places, and all seem a little or a lot scammy… I need an oil change, new brake pads/brake maintenance, and possibly some other things. Any recommendations? A one stop shop would be nice, but I’ll take all recommendations! Thank you all!
No injuries reported, suspect not believed to be armed
*UPDATE* she’s been found and is safe at home now. I’m leaving this up so everyone can see all the helpful people. They deserve to be recognized
Hey everyone, we’re down in Alabama for my wife’s grandfather’s funeral. Her brother was watching our dog, Pepper, in Arvada around 64th/McIntyre. She got out. We’ve already posted on Nextdoor, etc. If anyone is up in that area please keep a look out!!!
