Lucky market

I feel like I always get ripped off at Luckys. Whenever I go to Safeway and buy the same stuff I always spend about half the price and I’m not even exaggerating. I usually try to go to Safeway!, but sometimes since I live closer to the Luckys and if I bike, I’ll run in there and it’s ridiculous. Things are almost doubled the price for the exact same brand product than Safeway another thing is sometimes I don’t think the advertise pricing is what gets from that because I’m frugal and I add things up as I’m shopping and sometimes it’s like 20 or $30 more and I seriously it blows my mind and it’s kind of hard to call them out when you have a line behind you I don’t know. Just thought I’d share.

Can someone update what the parking situation currently looks like? Trying to decide if we should go to the port now or if it’s too late…

Planning on watching the Mexico England game in a bar as an England fan in RWC.

Will I be killed if I openly support England? I know there’s a serious Mexican presence in RWC and they were going absolutely nuts when they won the Ro32. I am English by the way.

Thanks!

Redwood Driving Test in a week; any tips?

I have a driving test at the Redwood DMV in about a week, does anyone who has the taken the test recently (recently being like in the past six months or so, but also i wont be picky about advice) have any tips? where to practice?

I‘ve driven around Redwood City and feel ok on the bigger roads, but the downtown is still a bit scary for me (so many people walking around!) I heard that the downtown isn’t a large portion of the test, but I don’t know if that information is up to date. the neighborhoods are mostly ok, but I think that might have been because I went to practice in a non-busy time…

Also, how many times did you practice a driving route before the test? I looked online and I found many (like 24 on a website :0) and don’t know if I should commit the time to be driving all of them. (and if you only practiced one route and passed, what was the route?)

another question, my test is at 10 am in the morning, how early should I get there in order to practice a bit? An hour, two hours earlier?

and if anyone wants to share stories about how they passed or even conversation topics to ask the tester (i heard it was good to strike up conversation? maybe?) please add a comment below!

WHERE to see port fireworks

I’d like to see the port fireworks but don’t feel the need to be amongst those on the waterfront. Online it says you can see them from “anywhere with a clear view of the port” but I don’t know where those places are. Any recommendations? I’ll be taking cal train so somewhere within 2mi of the station would be preferred.

Did Redwood Bistro close?

I was just at Redwood Bistro a week or two ago, but Google is now showing that it’s permanently closed, the online ordering system is down, and it seems like their phone is down too.

Crossing my fingers that it’s a temporary thing, since they were the only place I knew of around here with authentic Chinese food!

Waymo chaos in RWC on July 4?

Waymo has a charging depot at the end of Seaport Blvd. This road will be closed during the fireworks and for some time afterward. I wonder how the Waymos will handle it?

PSA: Just to let you know that a suspected mobile body shop scammer is living in your area.

I was scammed by a mobile body shop scammer I found on Yelp last month. The guy quoted me a very low price then doubled that. Please be on the lookout for a late 2010s-early 2020s Ford pickup truck and a person of Latino or Eastern European nationality. Scammer was average built and has tattoos on his arm. The car had what I believe is a fake temporary plate. It had a southern california phone number that started with 949 painted on it. After searching around for the fake business it gave an address on Rolison Rd in Redwood City. If you see the person and car please report it. Was going to tell my friend who works at SMCSO but it's too late for that now.

Hello Redwood City. I'm a lifelong Peninsula resident, and I recently started filming walks and drives around the Bay Area. Some other communities have enjoyed watching, so I thought I would share the Redwood City videos I have in case anyone here would like to watch. Thanks for your time.

Group tennis classes in Redwood City

Hi everyone! I’m looking to start learning how to play tennis and would like to do some group classes.

It seems most coaches require an already formed group. So if someone has an empty spot on their group or would like make a new group, let me know :)

I’m available everyday either before 10am or after 5pm.

Thanks!
