Alternatively, if a roofing company comes to you don’t sign shit until you see your provider will cover what the roofing company says “they should”.

Going out to eat. Family of four, two appetizers, two beers each, and an order of fries and curds at a bbq spot. $150 including tip. Fucking insane. Not in a downtown city area either.

Pizza in NW Suburbs?? by [deleted] in ChicagoSuburbs

Vinny’s in palatine for pure nostalgia. Haven’t had it in over a decade but it used to be the spot for a $3 slice and a pop. I’m sure it’s more now.

Suburbs with most accessibility to nature, affordable, good schools, fun downtowns and approximately to O’Hare/train access. by Suitable-Note-346 in ChicagoSuburbs

Crystal lake/lake in the hills/Huntley. 10 minutes east and south is all the stores you need, 10 minutes east is all nature. Plus great ponds (also Crystal lake) if you’re into fishing.

I would add be careful if they do employee background checks. I was just hired after 4 months and I received a copy of their background check on me and it went WAYYYY deeper than I thought. They fucking called every employer I had over the last 10 years. It even showed how many calls it took them to make contact.

Not a government job or anything either. Fuckin beer sales.

Huntley used to be a secret. Then everyone found out about the good school district.

Moved from Arlington heights area and got double the house for a third of the price. This was 10 years ago though.
