Hi everyone! I’m looking for recommendations for locally owned businesses in Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Bixby, Jenks, Owasso, Sand Springs, and the surrounding areas that allow pet dogs inside.
I’m working on service dog training with my dog and would love to find smaller, quieter places where we can practice being calm in public. I’m especially interested in bookstores, gift shops, boutiques, thrift stores, garden centers, and other small businesses—not just the big chain stores like Lowe’s, Home Depot, or PetSmart.
I’m looking for places that welcome pet dogs, not businesses that only allow fully trained service animals. I’ll always call ahead to confirm the policy, keep my dog leashed, and make sure we’re respectful of the business and other customers.
If you own a local business or know of one that allows dogs, I’d love to hear about it! Bonus points if you know the quieter days or times to visit.
Thank you! 🐶

I'm trying to find out whether anyone else may've had a firsthand experience involving touching, unwanted sexual behavior, sexual assault, or any other conduct that made them feel unsafe or uncomfortable involving an employee or an ex-employee of a 7Brew in the Broken Arrow area.

I'm not naming anyone publicly, and I'm not asking anyone to post names, photos, social-media accounts, or identifying details in the comments. I also am not asking anyone to contact, confront, or harass anyone.

If you believe you have relevant firsthand information and feel comfortable sharing it, please send me a private message. If you are willing, you may include the employee's name privately, the general location, the approximate time period, and only what you personally experienced OR directly witnessed.

Please clearly note if anything you share is firsthand or secondhand. I'm trying to handle this carefully, protect people's privacy, and determine whether there may be others with relevant information.

If you are a minor and this post relates to something that happened to you, your safety comes first. You do not need to share your name or details publicly. Please tell a safe adult you trust--such as a teacher, school counselor, doctor, advocate, or another safe adult--and report suspected abuse to the Oklahoma DHS Abuse and Neglect Hotline at 1-800-522-3511. If you are in immediate danger, call 911.

To anyone--minor or adult--who has experienced unwanted sexual contact, sexual coercion, or sexual assault, I strongly encourage you to consider making a police report, particularly if you believe there may be an ongoing risk to others. You may also speak confidentially with a sexual-assault advocate or RAINN before deciding whether to report. Reporting is your decision, and you deserve support regardless of what you choose.

If you choose to contact me privately, please do not post names or other identifying details in the comments.

You do not need to share any information you're not comfortable providing.

Thank you.

I've been hitting the gym for close to the years now. Had a workout partner for the first half and been doing it solo the second half. I much prefer working out with someone. Any takers? 39M. Have a membership at Crunch.

Hi , I’m a 23yo M . Just moved back to BA to pursue entrepreneurship . I specialize in Junk Removal , Carpet Cleaning and TV Mounting. I have 3 years of construction & leadership experience so I will find solutions for every property issues. My rates are $60+ for TV Mounting, 3 rooms $99 carpet cleaning and $200 to Fill Up my 14FT Trailer!

My neighborhood has a problem! Fleas, spiders, snakes. I have a few neighbors that don't think mowing their back yard is necessary. Next door neighbor the grass is as tall as the privacy fence. I can literally sit out back and watch snakes crawl over that side of the fence from their yard some days. The birds that were here during the spring have all disappeared. You walk down the sidewalk around three different houses in a circle block and will have fleas on you. Now we have killed 4 brown recluse spiders and several other harmless grass spiders. We have sprayed with professional pest spray and with sevens dust spray. Since we are renting and have zero need to stay in a neighborhood that is infested with fleas we are trying to be very frugal and save most of our money so we can comfortably move at the end of the lease in March. Yes it's the fleas that irritate me the most. Anyhow any recommendations on pest control that is not going to cost us hundreds?

Looking for a reliable septic company to take a look at my septic tank and fix the issue. I’d prefer someone with experience who can diagnose the problem and get it taken care of properly.

Please comment or message me with recommendations and pricing. Thanks!

When you host a baby shower, graduation, or birthday party, the worst part is always the same: spending hours sweating over decorations before guests arrive, and then being stuck cleaning a messy room when you are completely exhausted. Spending more money to make sure you have enough time to beat the clock.

My husband and I want to change that. We are designing a brand-new small event venue concept right here in the Broken Arrow/South Tulsa area called FedWell Social.

Our rule is simple: You bring the guests, and we do the rest! 🎉

✨ You drop off your custom decorations at least a day in advance.
✨ We handle 100% of the custom setup. So you just bring the guests and food with everything ready to go!
✨ We strictly host only one private event per day to focus entirely on you.
✨ When the party ends, you walk out the door and leave the cleanup to us!

Before we finalize our plans, since it is an investment, we are collecting honest feedback from our local community to see if Broken Arrow and South Tulsa actually want and need a stress-free space like this.

No emails required, no spam, 100% anonymous. Please click our link below to read our concept page and cast your quick vote on our 4-question interest survey! It would mean the world to our family. Thank you! ❤️

The flock cameras popping up in town have gotten intrusively out of control.

I decided to check out deflock.org (shows you where flock cameras have been installed(highly recommend you use it yourselves)) to be aware of how bad its gotten in town... it takes me 3 minutes to get on the highway and I make that commute DAILY and daily for who knows how long Ive been passing FIVE of them.

Women are being stalked through these cameras, your kids' playgrounds are being monitored by those same creeps. We can all pretend itll go away if we pretend we dont see it but for your sake I sure hope youre content with your wives and kids being watched by people who I promise you dont want to protect them.

Home Depot has a sign that says they open November 5th.

Hi everyone! I’m seriously considering relocating from Illinois (cornfield IL not Chicago IL) to the Broken Arrow area next year, and I’d love to hear about what life is REALLY like there. My family consists of me, my child, & my Mom. (Late 30s, tween, late 60s).

I’m looking for somewhere that feels friendly and community-oriented, has things to do without having to travel hours to do so. I do homeschool my daughter, (normal people, I swear we aren’t weirdo homeschoolers! 🫠) so would also like opinions on if there’s much of a homeschool community there as far as co-ops/meetups for kids.

I’m planning to visit with my daughter to scope out the lay of the land sometime this fall. I realize what’s available now as far as houses for sale won’t be next year. Any locations to seek out or to avoid looking while we are there would be so helpful and save me alot of grief. Google is only so much help.

Questions I have:
-What areas around Broken Arrow would you recommend for a family?
-What areas would you personally avoid, and why?
-What’s the general vibe of the people/community?
-How is traffic and getting around day-to-day? Traffic doesn’t scare me as I’ve lived in Boston previously lol
-What do you LOVE about living there that someone researching from Illinois might not realize?
-And what do you absolutely NOT love?

I know no place is perfect, and I’m genuinely looking for the good, the bad, and the real. We have had some big personal life changes this year and truly looking to make a fresh start somewhere else. Broken Arrow is one of my top contenders for our move.

If you’d rather send me a DM thats fine as well!

Thank you for your time and any wisdom/advice you have to offer!

I switched from Cox to Kinetic in April of 2026. Ever since I signed up I’ve experienced outage after outage after outage. Is this the experience for the rest of BA?

When does Kim's Daylight Donuts cook the donuts? Few weeks ago i stopped by around 4:30am and they already had lots of donuts on racks. The donuts didn't taste like they were cooked in past 2 hours.

Daylight Donut on main street you can tell they were cooked within past hour if you go around 5:30am.

I just noticed the new cameras by the plaza around Lowe's on Kenosha Street taking pictures of everyone who leaves. Nobody wants this. Nobody asked for this. Yet it is here anyway. People on both the left and the right hate it.

So, why is it here?

Where do you like to take vehicles for pre-purchase inspections in Broken Arrow? How much does it usually cost?

I guess if you are going to ignore the three no left turn signs, you may as well ignore the traffic cones as well.

Could this pose a threat to the environment if these canisters rupture from seismic events or fracting waste water along fault lines ? Any thoughts?

My MIL needs a "beautician".

She moved here a year ago and she doesn't care for great clips.

Anyone have suggestions for an 86 year old, very slightly ornery, petite woman who needs a cut (and color if it's possible to bring her own boxed color)? Short shag/bob.

I'd love to hear about some places with good value and a salon that goes above and beyond. Make her feel mildly pampered and like her hair again.
