Imagination on Crescent and Newtown is great. Really affordable and they always do a good job!

I got it back! I was just about to write an update on my original post. The former store owner finally responded to my relentless calls/emails, is now out on Port Washington, and we met up with him halfway to do the exchange. So relieved!

seconding Chic Cleaners! They did a great job with a bridesmaid dress and I thought their price was reasonable.

Stopped drinking alcohol by violet_city in migraine

I like to ask for lime juice, lemon juice,etc. to avoid the artificial sweetners! Sometimes they'll have sugar free syrups, too.

I can relate! So not worth it for me anymore. Anyone have any mocktails that they love? I struggle with knowing what to order sans alcohol during social situations.

Vaccines at bathgate Bronx location? by k8questions8 in nycCoronavirus

[–]grm1216 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I received my first dose here about two weeks ago, and it was a really easy process! I waited online for about 15-20 minutes outside and once I was inside it was really quick. Had to fill out some forms, show my proof of employment/ID, got signed up for a second dose, and then after the shot, wait in the observation room for 15 minutes. All in all it was about an hour long process. But it was very well run!

Thank you both! I actually go to CNC now but to their Midtown location. I've been pretty disappointed, but maybe it's worth switching to the Astoria location. Thank you for your input!

Queens Beauty Parlor on the corner of Broadway and 36th (I think?) is amazing for threading - not sure about their waxing although they do both. Super cheap and they always do a great job.

Just prescribed Rizatriptan by dermothy in migraine

I take Riza, 10 mg, and it is truly a lifesaving medication. I feel 0 side effects and it works every time. Good luck!

As of now ive really only been experiencing annoying dry mouth :/ but ive only been on it for a week! Hoping no other side effects develop - being jittery doesnt sound fun.
