T-Town

I always valued this group; and for some reason, it hadn't been recreated on Facebook yet. Out of touch with the previous moderators of this group, and weeks after bringing it up with friends? I just went ahead and created it:

Thought I'd share :)

I have a friend who's planning an upcoming wedding. She's hunting for places to rent a chocolate fountain from. Anyone have any suggestions/experiences from vendors in the Tulsa area?

My home desperately needs it and I think I need to start planning out the money situation now. Has anyone had piering done in Tulsa? Which company did you go with? How much did it cost you? What where some of the things that you wish you would have asked/done if you where to do it over again? Thanks.

I don't guess we have a Cash for Clothes, Etc in Tulsa anymore, right? Anyone have suggestions on where to sell a load of used clothes?

That doesn't cost an arm and a leg and/or lets you bring in your own caterer?

FI is agnostic, so a church is out of the question (unless we can find somewhere that will let us eat, drink and dance. Which seems entirely unlikely.)

Does anyone know which Tulsa area parks have baby swings? Florence park does NOT. We found some at Highland park. Any other suggestions? I live on the EAST side of town, so closer would be better, but it sure would be nice information to have for anywhere in town. Then I could plan park stops in among my errands anytime.

Anyone have suggestions of good parking lots or other empty spaces for taking someone to learn to drive?

EDIT: I'm doing lessons on Monday afternoons.

Looking for something creepy crawly to do this weekend? Well the Oklahoma Reptile Expo is happening! You can find out more at OkReptileExpo.com. It's only $5 for adults and $3 for kids aged 6-12. That is cheaper than the zoo!

This is from an article (of the above name) in Life's Vintage Newsmagazine in Tulsa. My mother saved it for me. Thanks Mom!! I dug up almost all the links myself, otherwise this is a direct clip of the article. I do not specifically endorse the service or food at any of these places. I did come across at least one bad review while I was digging for links. Cross-posted from my own journal.

Does anybody happen to know the address for the Avis{Cendant call center? I think it's 5100 something, but I don't remember what street it's on. I need it for a job application, and I've tried Google and the yellow pages with no luck.

Thank you very much!
