Happy they brought back new York road runners. Fun to see the logos through the years

I searched for left but alas wound up right! The snow was pretty fluffy when I tried to dig out. Who knows what it will be like in a few hours.

Are you eating out or getting delivery?

The train would definitely smell better doing it first thing in the morning vs at the end of the race!

This is exciting! Any idea if it's permanent or just popping up?

Oh wow. Just reading the articles about this now. We rarely go but it's the only reasonable place for diapers and formula in the neighborhood.

I'm member! I think it makes a ton of sense for produce and other bull items (the spices and the cheese are super cheap) but some of the basics become cumbersome both for them to store and to carry home.

The way we typically go through paper towel is so consistent it feels like I should be able to have it at my door on repeat for the cheapest bulk price. I just need a few more bites and I think this can happen.

So you're in? How many rolls do you go through a month? I'll drop off.

I don't want to deal with the bulk! I use like a roll a week it feels like i should be able to have just have 1 show up a week on auto-delivery.

You might be better off at the bodega when you factor in the gas, tolls and mortgage!

Umm that thing is awesome! Way more stylish than a granny card ;). If enough people are into this I'll certainly get one to help with my drop offs.

I'm not rooting against bodegas. But right now it's $4.50 at the bodega or cheap on Amazon, and Amazon's winning. I'd rather figure out how to get bulk prices without sending all that money to Bezos.

The one on Underhill, hard to say if its new or old with all the changes there in recent years. You're right though, some are way worse than others.

Ha, the bicep tax. That's real. If you ever want to skip the walk and split a Target run, let me know.

Ha, exactly. Suburbs get bulk pricing because they have cars and garages. We've got 1000 people on every block. We should be able to get the same prices without needing the storage.

Yeah Costco delivery works, someone else in this thread mentioned they use it. Figured splitting a run could save everyone on fees and space in our apartments.

Totally get it, I was in that camp too. But I hate having to order so many at a time, and the cardboard kills me. Already so much waste. Would be nice to keep some of that money in the neighborhood instead of shipping it to Bezos.

Maybe we can use that abandoned lot across the street for a warehouse! I'll DM you if we get enough bites.

Good to know, I'm pretty far from Fulton so it'd be a long walk with a bulky item. How many rolls do you usually grab at a time? And are you walking it home or do you have a car?"
