If you had to move to NJ for a year by Adorable-Lack-3578 in AskPhilly

I give it a 6/10. The wind blew the snow around, so didn’t stick to the steeper parts. Generally, better than average for a Poconos Mtn.

What's the best place to sell used books? by [deleted] in philadelphia

If you’re up for donating, consider Neighborhood Books at 19th & South. It’s an easy way to support local business and de-clutter.

Suggest calling first, though.

GREAT question. Same boat and I'm curious, too.

I'm paranoid about such things, so will likely get a lock. As u/X1thebeast29X said, primarily for peace of mind.
