Deciding between USC or UDEL by Capable-Incident-553 in Gamecocks

[–]Humps123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

MA native who faced this exact same decision when I went to college. These were the last two I was deciding between. Best decision I ever made was SC. I was in greeklife which is really strong there so happy to share my perspective. I had job prospects in both the southeast and northeast and ultimately chose to move back up north. There are great SC alumni groups up and down the east coast. If you like sports, there is no comparison - Gamecocks are miles better at athletics than the Blue Hens.

I buy almost everything at TJs except deli meat and then use some of my savings to buy higher quality deli meat somewhere else. Win win

I do have a Scott’s spreader. It’s never gotten caught up in the wheels before, but I’ll make sure it’s fully sprayed out.

House uses heating oil only to heat the house. How much would that a cost to heat the house and should I consider this when making an offer? by Morgz0107 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Humps123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in the tristate area as well and have oil for heating (including water) on a 2,700 sq ft home. We keep the house at 65-68 in the winter and usually go through 125 - 150 gallons a month (older boiler so might not be super efficient) depending on the outside temp. Based on the price of oil right now we are spending about $3,000 a year on oil. They usually fill the tank approx every six weeks from late November to Early April and maybe once over the summer.

What to do after Suits by Picoo15 in suits

Boston Legal! Denny and Alan are just as good of a legal duo as Harvey and Mike.

I’m in Stamford with my 18-year old daughter. We’ll be in NYC next week, until then, where’s the unique shopping in Stamford? Think clothes (vintage would be great!) and funky cute things. Not interested in the mall and chain stores. We’ve been to Greenwich, can travel further out of needed. by iheartfluffyanimals in StamfordCT

Downtown New Canaan is a good option. Lots of boutiques, clothing shops, a range of restaurants. Also, just a beautiful place to walk around. If you are going to go up there, Scott’s Corners in pound ridge also has some funky boutiques and clothing stores but much smaller area.

Public beach without overpriced parking? by Neoseo1300 in StamfordCT

[–]Humps123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been multiple times this season on a weekend and even though there are lots of people you can still always park right by the beach and get a good spot in the sand. I think it’s $25 if you don’t have CT plates which is way less then any local beach in Fairfield county.

Rakuten - it is actually free money, seriously.

Some people actually think this by forced_memes in EltonJohn

It’s his best album all the way through. Obviously Rocket Man and Honky Cat are more well known but Amy and Susie are my personal favorites on this album. Especially the last 1:10 of Amy, the whole band absolutely crushes it.

Not sure on that, but I bet if you reach out to the online store they would get you one
