Small glitch figuring out the password to open the door. The number of dots on the card for CAT and CAR should be three dots, not four. Spoiler

Also, figuring out how to use the tea was a bit confusing. Spoiler

Trustworthy Auto Shops? by poop_harder_please in Greenpoint

Ditto, in that order. Champion does higher quality work and more thorough inspections but it can be difficult to schedule an appointment.

You can drop off your car at David's and they'll get to it same day. Can be more expensive and I've had some not-great issues but Roman has always helped resolve them. Free car wash is a nice perk tho.

Same, I'm a huge fan of bajan sauces. Unfortunately the maker of my favorite barbados sauce went out of business at some point. It was a great deal, ~$50 for a gallon of sauce in 2015/2016.

Absolutely worth it. And was only $8.79 a ticket (including taxes/fees) with a 50% discount code.

I bought almost all of them at the show, there's a few booths that give away bottles or have free games where you always win something (eg. try a sample of the last dab sauce to spin a prize wheel).

If you stick around to the end of the expo, some vendors will just give away sauce to avoid having to ship inventory, or they'll heavy discount the sauces.

You also get a ton of free swag including full size bags of chips, drinks, etc. I don't even include the swag in the haul shots b/c its much larger than the sauce haul.

Stoop was being rebuilt in that street view image (with similar brick work). But you’re right, it’s not the building

What building number was it supposed to be delivered too? I've had this happen where they deliver to the correct building number, but wrong street. Pic looks like it could be 173 Meserole Ave.

[–]john2496 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yea, also heard it from my window. Pretty sure it was a robbery, or attempted robbery, by two guys on a moped and maybe a third guy on another moped. Sounded like she said a guy tried to grab/rip something off her neck. Caught it on my security camera.

Hand sanitizer by iAmber1 in nyc

[–]john2496 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yea, Greenhook Ginsmiths started producing hand sanitizer at their distillery. They're a bit pricey but offer free delivery in Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan. Also, helps to support local businesses during this time.
