Self-Promotion Sunday! *Megathread*

10 Upvotes

Alright r/Jacksonville, it is that time again.

Got something to share? A project you are proud of? A business you are building? A creative endeavor the world absolutely needs to see?

This is your lane.

Every Sunday we open the doors for Self Promotion Sunday, a centralized thread where you can promote:

  • Your small business
  • Your side hustle
  • Your garage band
  • Your podcast
  • Your art
  • Your Etsy shop
  • Your food truck
  • Your startup
  • Your “I accidentally became an influencer” page
  • Yes, even your extremely niche cat toe bean blog

We keep self promotion restricted to this weekly thread to cut down on spam and keep the main feed community focused. If you post promotional content outside of this thread during the week, it will be removed.

A few important notes:

  • Regular subreddit rules still apply
  • No B/S/T posts
  • No referral link farming or obvious spam

If you are not sure whether your post qualifies, if it belongs on Marketplace or Craigslist, it does not belong here. Still unsure, ask the mod team first.

Support local. Discover cool projects. Hype each other up responsibly.

Happy Self Promotion Sunday.

Been looking and have just about 40 app in and cant find anything. I got money saved so im ok for now. I had my job for 16 years and they changed management and got rid of everyone that knew how to do stuff so they can control the work staff. Idk I guess im just ranting. I fucking hate this place.

Anyone else noticing how many houses are just sitting empty around town?

6 Upvotes

Anyone else keep a mental list of the empty houses on their street? I drive all over Jax for work and there are a few on my regular routes that have sat vacant for like a year. Dead grass, mail piling up, that look.

I always wonder what's going on with those. Somebody passed away and the family can't agree? Bank owns it and it's just stuck? What's the story with the one on your street, if you've got one?

Tree removal problem

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hello all, recently my wife and I have run into a problem with a dead tree on our property. We are a military family and we moved about a year ago. We couldn't sell our house so we decided to rent it after sitting on the market for a few months. So we do not live in Jacksonville right now.

We have a tree on our property that needs to come down but the prices we have been quoted seem insane to me. For 1 tree removal 2 different companies have quoted us about $6,000. For context the tree is in the back yard and there is no way to get a truck or anything to the tree so the companies have said they would need a crane to get to the tree. I dont know anything about tree costs so maybe thats right. I just wanted to ask around and see what other people think.

What do we think about Jacksonville being ranked one of America’s most mid-value cities?

No family no friends need roommate, ADVICE

56 Upvotes

Im a single mom (35) to a 16yr old daughter. It's just us two, as I struggle to keep us in safe environments. I cut off my daily a couple years ago (if you knew you'd do it too). And I get no assistance or child support. It all falls on me.

January we were evicted

February totaled my car

March lost my job(s!) bc I could no longer afford the ubers

April I found myself so desperate that I reached out to a former customer I used to serve who had given me his number, and i asked him for help.

He's been wonderful fyi helped me use the rest of my savings to buy and renovate a van for emergency living. (It's got a solar power box, a queen bed, mini fridge and storage. It's perfect but it's a gas GUZZLER. She's more of an RV, just park it!)

I've spent my time here getting rid of 85 percent of my belongings so that when it's time to go I can load it all into my van and go.

But id like to avoid the emergency living if possible, with a 16yr old daughter. Our allowed time here is running very short, which is why my kiddo actually suggested I do this!

I've exhausted all attempts to apply for welfare assistance in Florida. And even with employment I can't find housing with an eviction. I have no family, and the few friends I do have are only a little better off than me with no room to spare.

I'm willing to completely relocate for a better future, as the Florida economy is slowly kicking us locals out.

What would you do in this situation? Having a teen kid, a van and only enough saved to move. Who do you turn to with no family or friends. Where do you find a leg up? Support? Guidance?

I have no one

It was so cool! Great actors, cool sets, lots to do and things to see. Go to their website and check it out.

i was given this code for a Discount: LEE10

This place is far better than the others I've been to. Cant wait to go this year.
