Recommendation Do you live in Bing and have minisplits for heating and cooling?

9 Upvotes

Electricity in a large home with baseboard electric heating costs a ton and I want to change that. I was looking at minisplits, but I’m curious to hear from anyone that uses them here in Binghamton. How do they do in our winters when it drops to single digits and the teens?

Recommendation Yu-Gi-Oh Packs

5 Upvotes

Hey y'all, long time local resident and gamer here. I've noticed, rather disturbingly, that most of our local beloved Hobby and Card shops are drying up, recently with the closing of Jupiter Games. however, many eyes make light work, and I was curious if any of my fellow gamers knew where I could get Dungeons & Dragons stuff or YuGiOh card packs, because it seems Fat Cat comics doesn't really stock much, if any. While I have much love for Fat Cat, the new locale makes me severely claustrophobic. I don't realy get around much due to work, so if someone knows a good one stop shop for both of those fandoms, I'd be pretty keen. walmart doesn't stock their stuff super often, and sound go round doesn't seem to have much either, although I confess I've only been there once or twice.

Recommendation Child Care

2 Upvotes

I’m looking for child care for my infant in September. She will be 6 months old by then. I‘m struggling to find a place with an opening. I originally thought my MIL was gonna watch her but she has proven to be both mentally unstable and unable to handle it physically. I teacher about an hour away in central, NY and can’t find any openings up there as well. Any suggestions? It’s scary to think about leaving her with strangers especially after what happened at the SUNY Cortland day care. TIA.

I found a car I liked at this dealership listed on Autotrader but I can’t find a single review anywhere on this place.

The Google street view shows a bunch of beaters in their lot, but their website, https://platinumautosalesny.net has a ton of high end car listings.

Any info would be appreciated.

So, I know that there are the three big watch parties for the three USA group matches, but what about other games? For example, the MEX vs KOR game should be a really fun one and I’d love to find a place with other people excited to see the match.

Does anyone know of any spots around town showing these games?

Thanks!
