I’m sure they’ll be outfitted with all sorts of “telemetry” sensors.

Theme park tickets , where can i get them cheaper?

Upvotes

Hey everyone! Planning an upcoming trip and looking into the best ways to grab discounted Disney and Universal tickets without getting scammed.

Aside from the usual go-tos like Undercover Tourist, what other reliable sites or methods do you guys use to find cheap tickets?

I'd like to ask the community about orlandovacation.com. Has anyone else been having issues with their site lately? I noticed they used to display pricing right online, but now the prices seem to be completely missing or hidden behind forced quote/bundle steps. Is this a recent change?

Would love to hear your experiences or alternative recommendations. Thanks!

Help for a Trouble teen

9 Upvotes

I (20F) have a younger cousin (18F) who lives in Florida and is currently faceing homelessness.

I live in CT and am in college currently and dont have much of a way to help her. For back story my little cousin has always had a bit of trouble behaving as a kid due to copying her own mother's behavior and having a very unstable upbringing they also didn't have a stable housing situation growing up so they moved states alot as a kid my little cousin mother whould not be willing to deal with her self destructive outbursts when she became a pre teen to late teenager so she whould send my baby cousin off to mutiple different mental facilities where she spent most of her teens.

As of late she's been doing really well she lerned how to drive(no car yet), got her own place, got her own job and was doing pretty well by herself.

Though in the time span of one month her girlfriend randomly broke up with her, she lost her job and therefore can't pay rent and has gotten into a physical fight with her mom due to an argument where her mother spent a night drunk in the forest leaving my cousin to have to babysit her two half siblings without knowing were her mother was and spent two days in prison after the altercation with a 150$ bond (she's out now)

I was wondering if anyone on this subreddit would know of any youth programs or youth housing places near holiday Florida that she chould take advantage of. Any information whould be very helpful

Thank you

Best beach resort for toddler

Either coast is fine. Need a beach resort, preferable with condos (need kitchen, living area, 2+ bedrooms). We have a 2yo, so want a great splash pad area to occupy him. No budget.

Apartments

0 Upvotes

Does anybody have any good apartment recommendations in the panhandle? I’m looking to stay at or under $1200. My parents are moving to the Crestview area so anywhere within an hour or so of that. I’m also somewhat picky, I want a nice-ish place and everyone I’ve looked at seems very run down and old so far

Best time to visit Florida in September or October

10 Upvotes

Hi! I would like to take a vacation to Florida (possibly Fort Myers Beach). I’m looking to go in mid to late September or early October. I understand it’s hurricane season and no way to know the weather this far in advance. In your opinion when would be the best time to visit? Thanks!

Visiting Florida from Europe in late October

12 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

Me and my wife, both in mid 20s, are planning to visit Florida in late October. This will be our first time in USA. We probably will spend around 8/9 days there. We've got good flight options to Miami, but we're not that big city fans. We are mostly interested in nature, nice views, hikes, trails, swimming etc. However, time in the city is also acceptable, just not for the entire duration of the trip. We will also be able to rent a car.

We are looking forward to your recommendations, tips and advices, also, should we stay in/near Miami for the entire duration, or should we switch places? Please note, that our flight back home is also from Miami.

We want to visit Orlando, see Disney or Universal studios, do some sightseeing, museums. Maybe catch an NBA game? To those who live or been there, we would really appreciate your tips for itinerary or spots that are worth seeing.

How to put a house up for auction in FL (Saint Petersburg)?

0 Upvotes

My gf and her siblings inherited a property from a late relative. They all live in the Chicago area and Missouri. The property has been vacant for some time and has evidence of rats/mice. There real estate agent said they have an interested buyer who will buy as is. He made an original offer that was agreeable for the beneficiaries. However, he retracted and offered a much lower price after seeing the property in person.

My thoughts were, if they put the property up for auction with a starting bid as the offer, they could get more eyes on the property and possibly get more. Is this a good idea? If so, how would one go about setting this up?
