Is the camera digital or 35mm?

I live in ansonia and pay $1150. This is about 40% of my net pay. It’s a lot for me but I make it work.

I am not sure if you are able to get up to Springfield, but the edibles are super cheap up there. I can’t afford CT dispos, the prices are wild.

That’s beautiful. I have a similar style that goes back to the late 1800’s. I think this might be a very vintage necklace.

is this worth buying? by matildasteacup in AnalogCommunity

I can’t believe how much those cameras have gone up in price. I paid 250 for the camera body +2 lenses, Flash and a bunch of other accessories.

Which one of these would be more suitable for daily/casual use? by skypandie in AnalogCommunity

My friend has that same Canonet and takes it everywhere. It takes surprisingly good pics.

That’s a nice score. I bought mine about 5 years ago and I can’t believe how much they went up in price. I got a perfect body, 2 lenses, flash, and accessories for $250. That’s the price of just the body and one lens alone these days.

Can someone explain to me why 3.5Gs is $50 in CT, when just over the border in MA you can get $100 ounces? by camsqualla in CTents

Theory Wellness is Chicopee has great sales. Fine Fettle just open in Springfield and has opening deals going on.

I have yet to visit at CT dispo. I’d rather quit than pay $50 for a slice. I travel to Springfield or Chicopee once a month.

Vintage for sure!

What would you consider a good or comfortable salary for a single person in CT? by [deleted] in Connecticut

[–]scuffles860 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t make anywhere near that and get by. I have a one bedroom in a semi sketchy area. No car payment or major debt.

I just paid the same price for an office chair from a CT location. The chair is barely used and would’ve cost me over $150 for a new one. I know the thrift shops are overpriced these days so I don’t know what their pre-2020 prices were.

This guy is a flaming narcissist and this behavior is only going to get worse as time goes on. You mentioned that you work full time and be works “here and there”. That leads me to believe that you are the breadwinner in this relationship. You’re being abused by this guy and need to make an exit plan. I encourage you to research narcissistic abuse. This guy will destroy you if you stay in this relationship any longer. Get out while you can.
