As a guy that isn't very handy, I love Ace hardware. The employees will actively ask you if you need help and are very helpful and knowledgeable. I've had someone walk downstairs with me to help me find a very particular screw and give me advice on the project. As opposed to Home Depot where you have to run around for 10 minutes to find an employee only for them to give you wrong or very vague information about where something is and then you have to go look for it only to find it's not in that aisle.

Time is money. I’ve never seen a Trader Joe’s in nyc with a normal wait time. I was considering buying in bulk in jersey during the pandemic and selling to people standing in line outside lol

Yes. I was by the chase bank when he approached me. He seemed to be in a good mood and was making jokes with everyone. He told me I need to retire cuz I’m 36, he told the guy before me to retire his car from 2003 and he told the woman to retire her 5 year old dog. Is Kerlin outgoing and a jokester?

This might be a longshot or totally wrong altogether but I took the train to Scarsdale yesterday and when I got off the train, i was sending out some emails while eating on the bench and a young asian guy came up to me and started talking to me. I didn't take a good look at him because I was doing stuff/still in "nyc don't talk to me" mode but he kinda looked like the picture. It seemed like he had some developmental disabilities or mental health issues. He was pushing a shopping cart and said his name was Peter and he was born in 1987. I thought it was kind of odd that he was out on his own just engaging with random people, but he struck up conversation with someone before me and started talking to some women walking their dogs right after me. I just assumed he was a local that all the other locals know. Maybe call Scarsdale police and ask if they know about Peter?

WTF what is everyone on the NYC sub bitching about? That's a damn good price for a legit cart. I was with my friend from Chicago last night and she pays 150 for 1g carts out there

I work in nyc but I don’t trust any of those smoke shop dispensaries and def none of the trucks. I’ve had some of the worst bud in my life from those places, I’m not rolling the dice on their carts. I stopped buying carts from all gray market sources a while ago just to be safe. I haven’t been to the legit nyc dispensaries yet but I heard they are charging insane prices.
Sometimes the carts go on sale. I got a 1 g of Gary Payton for $70 from apothecarium in Lodi last month.

There's a place in Queens that I was excited to try because it said consumption lounge/infused foods. I looked at the menu recently and saw they charge 100 or 150 for a membership or 25$ per visit....not ideal but I get it, gotta make your money and you're one of the first people providing the service openly. Looked at the menu and saw calamari for $40. Ok that's the infused price I guess, kinda rought but no biggie....na. There was a separate infused menu. That place is not staying open very long

Reply to comment by prayersforrain in Prices on Marijuanna in NJ are over 500% higher than in California. by ExperienceNo7751
I went to Mass, DC and Canada early on in their legalization process. DC had good prices when it was gray market but the legit dispensaries are about as much as jersey. Montreal was trash weed for wayyy too much money when they opened up. No edibles, no vapes, no pre rolls either at the time. I used to just buy black market weed when I would go. Last time I went, they stepped it up a bit. Mass wasn't much better the first time I went.
I feel like people want the weed utopia right out the gate that I imagined when I was 16 years old...that's not happening.

At least Paterson contributes some really good food. I'd put the food at Al-Basha over damn near any Arabic restaurants in NYC. Plus it has a lot of historical significance

I can make pasta from scratch but I gotta sit there and make the dough, let it rest then roll it out and let it dry etc. Sometimes i'm okay with the 1$ box of pasta instead of spending an hour+ and with the price of eggs going up probably $1 + on the recipe

That sounds much better, tbh. As far as I know, the iPic in Fort Lee shows UFC and other big events, I would definitely go to one of those. I remember someone from Canada telling me they used to watch WWF pay per views and other big sporting events at the local theater and i always thought that was cool. They also show some classic movies at iPic. I think AMC does too but both seem to have stopped doing it or advertising as much

It was def a problem but as someone who worked in Harlem, Queens and The Bronx every day during the pandemic, midtown/downtown was WAY worse with people disregarding masks at the height of the pandemic. Although, funniest thing I saw was 3 people sharing a hookah at like 830 AM on the block in the Bronx...like why the fuck are you up that early to smoke hookah?

My coworker went there and liked something, i think a small night stand. Not in stock. Can't order it for shipping from the store or else they charge more. They had it shipped from somewhere else, it took a few weeks to get there, and they would only hold it for like 24 hours. She had to take the subway back over there just to pick it up on a day off (we have an office nearby, i would have drove her any other day). It was really inconvenient
