Here is the deal. You buy tires you pay a tax, When you get new tags you again pay taxes on your tires, on average over 4 years you end up paying taxes on the same tires. I dont think it is possible for that to happen because the Constitution says its not, why in the blank would we, we didnt take that when the British did it and other things that is being pushed on us, that we didnt agree to in the first place.

Anyone else think the fireworks show off the high bridge last night was lame? I mean it was alright had a couple neat ones but for the most part it was the same thing over and over again and feel like I've had a better at home display of fireworks before. Last year was my first year going to watch them and it was amazing and that's what made me go this year and idk to me this year being 250th it should have been better but just didn't live up to last year's show. Just my opinion let me know what you guys think

Looking for something to do Saturday night that is not fireworks or sudden loud noise related. Fireworks tend to wreck me. I am looking for something that I can do rather than being a shot in. I’m not overly shy, just really don’t like the noise.

Open minded to new ideas

Hey! Will be relocating to Eau Claire in the next month or so hopefully. Where is the best place to look online for rentals? Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated! 🖤

Hey there! I don’t live super far from Eau Claire and I’ve been trying to find a sense of community somewhere.

Me:
39 single lesbian who leans more towards the masc side than anything else. Have a great job and two fur faces who follow me around. 😜😁

Anyone know any spots that i could visit in town that would be accepting?

Thank you! 😊 🫶🏼

Hi all! My husband and I are considering a move to the Eau Claire area. We're expecting our first child in September and will need daycare as we both work full time.

If you're paying for daycare, what are the average costs for full time infant care? Do you like the care you receive? We'd prefer a daycare center but are open to hearing all perspectives!

Thanks so much in advance.

Spectrum just upped my price to $85/month for pretty mediocre internet. Unfortunately fiber optic is not available at my house. Anyone have experience using a T-Mobile 5g hotspot? Any other recommendations?

I moved to EC last year and I am still using a county bank back at home. I am wanting to switch to a credit union for multiple reasons but I am looking for some advice on which credit unions I should look more into. The most recent thread that I could find covering this is two years old and I am guessing a lot has changed. Thanks!

I have never purchased a higher end bottle of alcohol before.

Where would be the least expensive store in the area?

I've worked from home for years and just today leadership sent out a notice that they are going to stop paying for home Internet in a few months. So, what's the best cost vs performance in the area? Spectrum? TDS? Anyone been with multiple providers to be able to compare?

I run typically run 3 or 4 days per week on the South side. All of my running has been done on the roads and unfortunately, I developed a shin splint. I took a break from running as it heals and I am hoping in the next couple of weeks to slowly get back into it.

Can anyone recommend gentle off-road trails that I could mix in with my runs? I am not looking for highly technical trails, but some that are relatively flat and without a lot of potential hazards (e.g., potholes).

Any advice would be appreciated.

I am looking for a tradional/old fashioned 4th of July parade. Including high school bands, floats, veterans with flags, Shriners in tiny cars, the whole nine yards. Anywhere in Northwest Wisconsin.

I have friend visiting & this is their first American Independence Day and I want to make it memorable.

I see ads for boat, kids & pet, also bike parades, but not the traditional parade. I would appreciate any suggestions.

If anybody is having a casual cookout or gathering of any kind with their friend for 4th of July to watch fireworks and wouldn't mind having a friendly stranger join in, DM me please.

I got the urge to watch fireworks this year and would enjoy it with some fun folks. If it helps, I'm a late 30's male, quieter but not shy, not a bragger or one-upper, and I'm accepting of all people who can accept others. My interests are boxing, whittling, psychology, and general/electronics repair.

I'm happy to bring some food and/or drinks to contribute. I can even drop by early if setup help would be appreciated.

That's it. Everyone be safe, have fun, and do right by your community!

I am in town for a few weeks and will likely be eating out often. What are some of your favorite restaurant deals in town? Preferrably ones in the downtown/Water Street areas as that is where I am staying. It could just be a cheaper place to eat, a daily special that is awesome, a happy hour item, or a certain menu item that is a great value.

We got a $10,000 quote from Larson and Keeney for 2000 square feet and I feel like they’re just trying to rip us off.

Trying to watch the FIFA games today, and getting a blank screen on weux. A cable issue? Station issue?

Thanks

Hello! I'm interested in laser tattoo removal. I've been looking into Eau Claire Body Care and Harmony Wellness. Does anyone have experience with these businesses or others in the extended area I might not know about? I know the quality of service likely won't vary much but I just want to work with good people. I'm also a dude that feels a little awkward walking into any of these clinics/medical spas which is the reason for this post to begin with.

For what it's worth, I have a 6" x 2" black tattoo on my forearm that I'm eventually looking to cover up but I want to get 3-4 laser sessions in to make that process a bit easier.

Thank you!
