James Smith+FollowWichita woman’s movie-worthy gift to her momAngela from Wichita pulled off a surprise that feels straight out of a feel-good film. As a kid, she promised her mom a Mazda Miata—the car her mom always dreamed of but never bought. Decades later, after a lucky harvest, Angela found the perfect Miata, left the for-sale sign on, and changed the contact number to her own. When her mom called, Angela answered: “It’s yours, Mom.” Even Dave Ramsey was blown away by the creativity and heart behind the gesture. It’s a reminder that sometimes, the best gifts are about keeping promises and making memories. What’s the most meaningful gift you’ve ever given or received? #Cars #Wichita #Heartwarming00Share
Megan Garcia+FollowTowne West Square’s wild ride: From mall to business hubWichita’s Towne West Square went from being the west side’s go-to hangout to a symbol of retail’s ups and downs. Remember when Saturdays meant browsing Dillard’s, grabbing Orange Julius, and running into neighbors? Over the years, anchor stores closed, power and water got shut off, and small businesses were left scrambling. Now, the mall’s being reborn as Wichita Business Park, trading shopping bags for office space and industry. It’s wild to think how quickly a community landmark can change. What do you think—will this new chapter help the west side thrive, or is something lost when a mall closes its doors for good? #Business #LocalBusiness #Wichita00Share
Kevin Rodriguez+FollowWichita’s hidden health hazards exposedState inspectors recently uncovered some shocking conditions at local Wichita spots: live cockroaches in a restaurant dining area, dead mice outside a motel lobby, and even stained, burned bed linens. These aren’t just minor slip-ups—some places had so many violations, they had to close rooms or face re-inspection. While most businesses fix issues on the spot, it’s a reminder to stay alert about where we eat and stay. Have you ever spotted something questionable at a local restaurant or motel? How do you decide which places to trust? #Health #BodyHealth #Wichita00Share
