Airport or any cell phone store really. In many places (I think London is among them) you'll even find prepaid SIM's at the checkout at grocery stores like you'd find gift cards here.
If you're staying at a Hotel, they also can give some recs on where to find better priced packages. They get asked multiple times a day.

In all seriousness. The ferry should be free.

Cause the rest of Jersey City would burn it down out of jealousy. Those gentrifiers downtown don't deserve nice things.

The language barrier will be tough, but you can overcome it in London.

The overall guy was gone for a few weeks but i saw him yesterday morning. Supposedly they took the bench in front of walgreens and the cover over the bench in front of the diner away because of him.

If you somehow still need someone in 3 months I would be interested but hope you find someone sooner.

Thanks. We had a bad experience trying to do that in Panama, and ended up getting it at a mall, with the language barrier making it a farce. But I guess London ain't Panama!

I’m not sure how much time you spend by the journalnsquqre path or on the pedestrian walk way on Newark by jersey ave. quite a few there. Nothing like NYC but a good amount.

Why not just get it in the airport as you’re leaving? I got mine at baggage claim and it took literally 2 minutes and was cheaper than Amazon.

I use retro $20-30/month. Some of the memberships are month to month, I believe.

Agree with your assessment. Two points:
- For a while, there were homeless by the JSQ PATH station where the city provided showers etc. That drove up the number of homeless, but what I have been told, these were visitors that came for food and shower (and Bombas socks) before returning to NYC.
- There are two or three homeless shelters in JC. That’s it.
HP has a regular contingent of homeless. Harmless. But, why do we have homelessness?

It is easier to be homeless in NY. More govt funded programs, soup kitchens, places to sleep, subways to panhandle in

We've got a few along West Side Ave. There are a couple of sort of squat arrangements that allow them to retreat from the streets in ways that are less available in NYC, I think.
