Can some tech bro setup a GoFundMe for this guy's self sacrifice? I mean he put $3.49 of his hard earned money (i hope he didn't have to multiple jobs and long work hours for this amount) so we can now save our $3.49 (worst: $35 + tax!!! if anyone was planning to go for the can) and spend on other more worthy indulgences, such as my daily starbucks!!!
Good job, well done, internet stranger!

Reply to COVID safe gyms/workout spaces? by Alert-Ad4070
I use Club Metro on Washington St. I'm usually the only person in the gym wearing a mask. I go during the afternoon (between 12-3, usually) avoiding the rush. It's never crowded (though the dumbbell area is tight, so even a few people fill up the space).
They don't use any mitigation measures that I know of, but it is a large space with high ceilings, so there's that. It's infinitely less crowded than Base Gym. I've never had anybody look at me askance for masking.
It's not a fancy gym; a lot of the equipment has seen better days. But it's got everything you need and the price ($50/month) is fair for this part of town.

Reply to comment by jerseycityfrankie in Why the secrecy? Tell public who paid for Jersey City officials’ trips to Paris by HobokenJ
I can see the conversation go like: Paris is a city of sophisticates and Uncle Rich will ruin EVERYTHING!
But l'm 99% sure Boggiano just couldn't be bothered to go.

But then they come here to complain about it, when there are more affordable options a stone’s throw away

I wonder if that's why he wasn't at the last council meeting?

Such a dumb move, sometimes Fulop is his own worst enemy.
If it's not a big deal then why the secrecy? It's the same with Degise, rather than deal with something decisively it's left to fester and a 2 day story becomes a 6month saga.

They still exist and are still a 10/10, especially the spicy ones.

Not that guy but Art and Mary's chips are the best. They did kettle chips way earlier than any other supermarket brand I know of and they are so good. In fact they are so good that even the salt free chips are poatato-y goodness.

I live on Palisade near Christ Hospital and it’s usually pretty easy. Like others have said, certain times are tricky but I have never been totally unable to park.
I also work from home so moving the car for street cleaning during the day is very easy.

Reply to New to the area. What are the best cafes in JC/Hoboken to work in (wifi, not noisy, lots of seating, etc.)? by Comprehensive_Cap436
Canard has a good number of seats and the atmosphere is good. Close to the water too, I usually go for a walk after

Not mentioned here already: Grace O’Malleys. Buddy’s fries are essentially a meal in themselves

> the cost can be more reasonable than you’d think if buying in bulk
I love the idea of rich people buying their Evian and fois gras at Costco.

People are failing to point out that $35 luxury chips lower the cost of normal of chips for everyone else, according to research done by the Patatas Fritas Foundation.

This jibes completely with my experience- they taste less oily/salty; though of good quality, nothing that would compel me to buy them again.
Cangiano’s sells them, if anyone else feels like trying.

Reply to comment by nuncio_populi in Property Taxes ~ Quick (dumb?) Question: if purchasing a condo for $600k with an assessed to value of $500k do the property taxes automatically adjust to the latest sale price of $600k? TIA by MarieSkiis
I believe it's actually every 10 years or when the ratio gets more than a certain percentage, I think it's like 15% and already past it.
