Starting to look into day care but obviously no one has tuition prices listed. What is your general experience where you go and maybe base pricing you’ve paid/been shown? Looking into new job opportunities, but it wouldn’t be worth it if the day care costs as much as or more than I’ll be making.

ETA they’re 2.5 and 4. And it’d be daily from about 730-1

I am not a drinker, but the World Cup is on and I feel like going to the (a) pub and hang out and watch it.
Is there any place like that nearby? I don’t mind having a cup of tea or mocktail.

this is my first time living here during the World Cup. Is that a thing people care about and watch here anywhere?

We’re looking at potentially moving into the Western Branch School District area and I’ve noticed the schools seem to get pretty average ratings online.

For those who actually live there or have kids in the district, do those ratings mostly come from standardized test scores/academics, or are there also concerns about things like student behavior, bullying, safety, fights, etc.?

We’re trying to get a realistic picture beyond just the numbers on GreatSchools and similar sites. Would love to hear honest experiences from parents, students, or teachers.

Why are there EZ Pass readers at the end of the express lane on I-64E at Bowers Hill? Does it currently have a purpose or is it just there for a future use/additional lane? This is the only location I'm aware of that has readers at the END of an express lane.

Any suggestion on somewhere that could accommodate a group for a dinner? Baseball team and families, so nothing fancy!

Anybody know an HVAC guy or company that doesn’t charge out the wazoo? My AC unit isn’t working and I need it checked. I’ve done all I could do to check on my end.

I'm about to move back to the Great Bridge part of Chesapeake, and was curious about the YMCA there on Battlefield. It'll be close enough to bike to, so I'm considering it. The price is pretty steep and I already have a Planet Fitness that I'd drop for this.

The only things I'd go for are:

• Swimming lessons/pool
• Weights
• Exercise classes
• Possibly martial arts if they have any

I don't need anything to do with kids as I don't have any. I won't be doing the family plan either.

Looking to open a bakery/grab and go lunch spot in the area. I know Hampton roads is mostly shopping plazas with adjacent neighborhood pockets but was wondering where the best place to look for a commercial spot that gets foot traffic that ISNT the oceanfront. Any ideas or thoughts?

Just came up to the Kroger on Sentinel Drive and there are a ton of emergency vehicles around the Woodspring Suites. Anyone know what's going on?

I'd search of abandoned/closed historical homes,church or buildings in the area

Everyone be aware of this scam. Especially if you, your friends, family or anyone you know is special needs/disabled.

This company who claims to be a medical establishment is scamming disabled people who cannot communicate. People who are very special needs.

I want to make it very clear this is not a sick joke post. They claim that they can make your disabled, non-verbal family member speak 8 languages. Only you will never witness this. They claim to be able to teach them morris code and other extraordinary things all for a whopping price of $400+ a month. There are at least 6 people that we know for a fact are being scammed by this business. They have an actual building and everything where they take their “clients”. There is video evidence of this obvious scam, with many details that I will not put in this post out of the respect for my friend, who will be sharing this with Wavy 10.

The “company” is called Little Endeavors located in Virginia Beach. Do not trust this sick company. They are preying on the hope of families of disabled children and adults.
