📰 In the news
Transportation help for veterans: Brookings County’s Veterans Service Office seeks volunteer drivers to take veterans to Sioux Falls VA appointments. With only four drivers, rides are needed for around a dozen vets each month — see what’s required to volunteer.
Vintage elegance with Hollywood history: Adrian Nelson of AJ’s Automotive in Canton restored a rare 1934 Super Eight Dual Cowl Sport Phaeton that will be auctioned tomorrow, January 23, at Sotheby’s Arizona Car Week — read the full story.
Loans and grants greenlit statewide: South Dakota’s DANR approved over $48 million for water projects, including a treatment plant, two reservoirs, and a third Lewis and Clark Regional Water System connection benefiting Sioux Falls — see what’s funded statewide.
Compare rates for free: The national average for car insurance is around $175 per month. Paying more than that? Same, so I did some shopping around and ended up cutting my premium in half. If you haven’t checked in a while, you’re probably overpaying too — here’s the comparison tool I used.
Gold & silver are hot: Gold just had its best year since 1979. Silver did even better, climbing nearly 150% in 2025… and analysts expect the momentum to continue. If you’re curious about adding precious metals to your portfolio as a market hedge, American Hartford has a helpful guide that covers everything you need to know. It’s free — and definitely worth a read.

Highlights this week:

🫶 We got your back
Big night for country fans: CMA Male Vocalist of the Year Cody Johnson will play the Denny Sanford PREMIER Center in May. Tickets go on sale tomorrow, Friday, January 23 at 10 am. His latest release Travelin’ Soldier has been a hit, so expect a big crowd in Sioux Falls. Get all the details.
Because mornings happen: Whether you’re craving a cozy latte (SoDak Sweety, anyone?) or a fresh pastry, Coffee & More brings a cheerful coffee shop on wheels to Sioux Falls, serving handcrafted pick-me-ups that brighten the day. Rolling cafe, warm smiles, and aromas that appear right when morning needs a nudge.
Fresh trim, less chaos: Whether your pup needs a quick tidy or the full bath-and-haircut, Dirty Dog Spa keeps it calm and thorough, with nail care, ear cleaning, and de-shedding add-ons. You get back a clean, happy dog… not a damp, zooming gremlin.
A new haircare solution: My hair’s been thinning and I’ve been quietly ignoring it, hoping it’ll fix itself. Plot twist… it hasn’t. When I finally started looking into what I should do, there were so many options I didn’t know where to start. I stumbled on Keranique, and its simplicity really sold me. One kit, no pills, no choosing products, and no confusion whatsoever. It’s also on sale with a money-back guarantee (although I doubt you’ll need it).
An emergency vet visit could cost you $7,000+ (ask me how I know 🙃). From the initial fee just to be seen to x-rays, surgery, medicine, and aftercare, it adds up quicker than a chew toy turns into a crime scene. The good news? You could get up to 90% cash back on your vet bill with this pet insurance plan.
