“Dear PoPville,
I’m a teacher in need of a little financial advice. Can we ask the group to recommend affordable advisors? Looks like it’s been awhile since this last came up. Thanks for considering!”

“Dear PoPville,
Wanted to share that Capital One Arena changed their bag policy this year and hadn’t seen it posted/talked about anywhere. Their new rules are super strict for bag/purse size and I saw several women including me and my friends who had to pay for a locker to stash it in. We even googled it before going to check, but the top hit is from 2019 and apparently that rule is outdated. Below is the new rule, (more…)

Ed. Note: In January a GoFundMe was launched to support them but it only raised $1,475 out of a goal for $30,000.
“Dear PoPville,
I was wondering if you have heard any intel about what happened to Debby Harper salon in Dupont. This nail salon is a favorite of thousands of women (and men) across DC. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
I witnessed a dog hit and run this morning (Monday 11/15) on the corner of 3rd and Oglethorpe NW. A couple of us passerbys stopped to help the woman and her dog, who looked to be in very critical condition. One very kind woman offered to take the woman and her dog somewhere for help. I wanted to say thank you to that woman for showing such amazing kindness to this lady and her pup. (more…)
“Dear PoPville,
I would like to enroll my son in swimming lessons, preferably in the near future. I’ve heard that DC Parks and Recreation classes are difficult to find open spots. Might anyone on the listserve have suggestions for enrollment in the DC Parks and Recreation, as well as for affordable alternative options (e.g local Y)?”

This morning (Wednesday) my friend and I (and her sweet dog) were getting breakfast at Takoma Beverage Company, when you walked over to a nearby bench to enjoy a pastry. You were tall, wearing a flannel shirt and sunglasses. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
Question about car crahses in DC. Apparently the DC cops don’t come to fender benders or other accidents unless someone needs medical attention and an ambulance needs to be called.
I was not at fault and it took 4 months for the other party to make up a lie about hitting my car and now my insurance is liable to pay even though not at fault.
What has anyone else experienced in this situation? I called the cops after the accident and was told to simply go through insurance and then that backfired.”

“Dear PoPville,
My husband and I desperately need a licensed, insured, bonded company to remodel our shower. We hired someone referred by our realtor to do that in September and his crew flooded our unit and those below us (we’re on the top floor), put up the tile walls horribly and in a way that definitely wasn’t watertight (thankfully didn’t test it) so they tore out the walls and put up new ones.

Does anyone have experience with/recommendations for off-street parking options while out of town for a span of 6-7 weeks? (more…)
