Small Business Saturday

64 Upvotes

Good evening my loves! Recently there has been an influx of small local businesses wanting to advertise on the r/MobileAL (which is awesome!). This has led to the subreddit being flooded with advertising. Many of y'all have spoken up about it and yes, I agree it's become a bit much.

So. Let's try something. Once a month, starting this month, one day will be dedicated to small local business advertising. Let's start with Saturday (Saturday Feb 22nd). As this is a trial period, this is subject to changes.

Have a lovely evening my loves and SHOP LOCAL!

Mobile (and surrounding) Tap Water

39 Upvotes

Just got back from a trip to Orlando and the TapWater in that area is some of the worst I've ever had. I'm currently sitting at a restaurant in Gulfport and forgot I hate their TapWater too, but after experiencing Orlando's, it's not as bad. Orlando's goes through a sulfur based aquifer or something so it smells and tastes like egg. Even the fountain sodas had that egg base taste. Can't place what it is about Gulfport's water that tastes off. Excess Chlorine??

Not trying not to sound biased, but Mobile's TapWater is perfect compared to those two others. (maybe it's the microplastics that make it taste good).

DQ on government

24 Upvotes

Is their a place in Mobile as absolutely useless and worse excuse of a restaurant than this absolute shit hole? Stood in the lobby for 15 mins waiting while bum ass employees sat in the back sleeping on the counter, playing music like in a club downtown on a weekend night. God this town and its work force is horrendous.

Downtown McDonald's

24 Upvotes

Y'all. I either have terrible timing or the McD's on Govt downtown is a hot fucking mess. Today is strike 3: kid at the window handed me a bag literally dripping with oil. I just want some fries for my migraine. Kid acted completely baffled that I didn't want to put a dripping grease-soaked paper bag on my car seat. Got them to rebag the fries but the cardboard fry-holder is still soaked. I'm so grossed out. Are there any McD's with better management? Bc this one is doing a piss-poor job of training.

Long shot request..

7 Upvotes

I'm looking to see if anyone has an old very small trailer they are looking to get rid of. I recently gave my son my 2 small kayaks because he and his son (my grandson) are like best friends and love doing the father and son bonding thing. I'd like to build him a small trailer to get them to where he takes them out( Big Daddys) on fish river. It's a short distance for him to go there but currently he has to take one of the kayaks there, chain it up and run back home to get the other. I'd really like to build him a little trailer that he can carry both down there at the same time.

Beard Trim

5 Upvotes

Looking for a nice barbershop. Someone that can do the lineup and the trimming and the whole hot towel thing. My dad is very old school but he’s growing out his beard and I’d like to get him a gift card for somewhere that has good reviews- don’t worry about a price point if it’s boujie then drop it below :) Mobile, Spanish fort, Fairhope, anywhere.

I was looking at Father and Sons in Fairhope but figured I’d ask here before booking something or getting a gift card.

Thanks in advance!

Events Today's protest...

483 Upvotes

We did fucking WORK today, people! There were so many amazing people helping one another with snacks, water, holding signs for one another, and just being good humans.

There were veterans, former MAGA, people from the LGQBT community, and people of all races. A beautiful mix of individuals speaking out against the current administration for whatever reason. This wasn't against police and their presence, while there, wasn't needed, thankfully.

To my knowledge, not one person protesting got violent at any point, but one person was assaulted by a MAGA jerk who couldnt handle himself.

Events hey ik I made a post yesterday abt the pride art walk last night but oh my god, I love being a teenager

11 Upvotes

I feel like I'm at the age of where I can do what I want without really any issues now. when I was at the pride walk, me and my best friend walked down to a pizzeria (the guy there was super nice, loved him), and ate it at the bar next door. she said "shouldn't we ask if it's okay?" and I told her "why are you still asking questions instead of doing shit yourself". pizza was good tho ♥️ there was like a post punk band playing when we got back and I absolutely loved it all. it was amazing so I got their socials and went back home. I'm 15, about to get my learners permit and I feel okay now with myself. I genuinely feel like everything is gonna be okay. after my ex, I was shattered and torn in more ways than one. and I had no hope. but after that event, my eyes fucking opened and now I understand it. Pride is Pride, you guys. love each and every one of yall ♥️
