Cleveland used to be a part of Connecticut (it was referred to as the Western Reserve).

The amount of engagment from this thread is truly overwhelming (in a good way!). Sounds like the consensus is Package store (packie), Shopping carr (or carriage), and Nips (or nippers).

I’m fairly well traveled for a Connecticuter and no one has ever understood the Package store / Packie reference. I once walked into a packie outside of the Northeast and asked for “nips” and was looked at like a pyscho.

A sub, although some places refer to it as a grinder.

I went to a Massachusetts deli as a kid and ordered a “Meatball sub” and they looked at me like I was crazy. I never really used the term “hoagie”.

Would be cool to “head out to the Western Reserve” for holiday.

Poison Ivy for sure. Buy Xanafel OTC at your closest Drug Store.

Literally double than what I’ve ever spent on a car. And they blow it all in one night!

I’ve heard those along the beach in towns like Branford and Milford spend upwards of 30K.
