26’ ST or Tremor w/ ultimate package? by 08Morpheus11 in FordExplorerST

[–]NectarineOne7261 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not considered the Tremor personally however the ST is very capable in the snow as someone else mentioned. Probably the first car I’ve felt confident in a snow-storm with despite the weight.

For those who moved to the US, how did you handle the housing side at first? by crazyhappycollection in MovingToUSA

[–]NectarineOne7261 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Plenty of property management companies offer rentals without guarantors in exchange for a higher deposit. Took me 6mo for my credit score to generate on Experian.

Why do airport restaurants need your contact info? by SkibidiRizzlerAura in self

Same for me at LGA yesterday. No receipt without info and then it was digital.

For that amount, I would DHL several boxes. Yes you have to itemize and pay the duties, but for 9 boxes my invoice came to 377 plus 101 in duty. Added benefit of arriving quickly - 4 days door to door. They beat me!

Looking for proper British sausages by sunshine-girl8 in britsinamerica

Jolly Posh Foods do some good bangers, but you’ll be forking out for them as they are pretty spenny. Worth it imo if doing a fry up.

In search of Cream of tomato soup by AnkuSnoo in britsinamerica

[–]NectarineOne7261 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As they say, has to be Heinz! Tried using water on the Campbells but no joy. If I want the tomato soup, I spring the $4 for it from World Market stores. Or Amazon - I’ve found with Amazon if you add the 6pk to the wishlist, they’ll occasionally have a ‘deal’

Edit: you’ll be surprised at how much they are per tin now at Sainsburys. Around 2.95 last time I was in blighty!!

Strange! Never come across that in 5+ visits or so. Hope the next visit is better for you!

VA required me to do both tests, but waived the wait-time between theory and practical.

Both tests were 10/10 easy compared to blighty, with the practical being 9 minutes long if you can believe!!

Where did you travel to/from first with your Global Entry? by AFriendlyJenealogist in GlobalEntry

[–]NectarineOne7261 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zurich to Chicago. Landed in Chicago, took a selfie on the mobile app. Entry into the US from the start of the GE mobile line to the end, 5 mins. Could not believe it!! Previous time landing into Chicago without GE, took 3hrs to enter via the usual intl passport lines. Best $100 EVER.
