Google maps says it takes 10minutes walk to reach Main St at Bengen Rd where you take bus158 and ride for 30 stops

Does anyone know how much a round trip of this will cost? Also, reviews says it's not a public transport friendly location (Rite 4 E). I know the time will around 1h 15min each way but been reading online "this is not a friendly transport location"

Is it better off to just find a hotel like 10mins walk from Times Square?

Hi all! On the northbound side of the turnpike around mile marker 16, there is always a beautiful display of Christmas lights. They are usually big orbs in red, yellow, blue, and green. It just pops out of nowhere and is so pretty! Anyone know who is responsible? I assume there’s a building nearby, but can never make it out driving by so fast. It looks like someone decorated the forest haha

The Mrs and I are staying at the Holiday Inn on Route 17 the night of Christmas Eve. We're have a family get together at 2 on Christmas day, but I'm probably going to be starving by then. Does anyone know if the Candlewyck or Meadowlands diner or anything else is open for breakfast on Christmas day? Perhaps a local bagel shop? I know the Bagel Store on Hackensack st is closed on Christmas. We would settle for something from a convenience store if it comes to that. I'd just like you're have a nicer breakfast if possible.

Anyone else encounter more crazy drivers like MA plate “4AFX 96”. Scary aggressive Mercedes. Line #77 didn’t pick up…

Something about these counties just fascinates me. Idk if it’s because they’re much more rural than what I’m used to, but everything just feels so different. Let’s start a convo and everyone share their opinions and experiences. What do you find interesting? What do you like/dislike?

RWJBH is hiring and offering a $10,000 sign on bonus!

I will send the complete ad to whoever is interested.

Good luck 💪🏾

So I am curious what is the most "hillbilly" or out there towns in these counties?

Driving on the highway, got a small chip/ ding on our car windshield from a flying rock from a dump truck. I've used Safelite before. Called them the next day and was able to get someone to come to the house to do their 15 minute repair within a day or two.

I understand the repair doesn't always look perfect, and I'm told it's not cosmetic- it just stops the potential for spreading. Yeah, I get it, but the repair was not done properly. It looks like NOTHING was fixed. The tech took pictures after she completed the work and so did I, it looked ok at the time. But..the next day the round mark was back to the original size!

The answer from Safelite customer service is "don't worry we offer a satisfaction guarantee". We can put the money from the repair towards a new windshield! Great A new windshield will be at least $1,300 ! Not looking to spend that kind of money.
Service says they cannot do another repair once it's fixed. Really? Why not if it isn’t repaired correctly? The crappy glue fix was $77 and paid by my insurance.

I went on Safelite chat and was able to get someone to come out to do a "recheck". Jordan came out, told us "I'm not doing anything, it's fixed" then left. He was here about one minute. I got a text saying my appointment was canceled and nothing else. The tech that initially "fixed" it took pictures, I took pictures So why didn't he bother to look? This is terrible customer service!

So now if I want it fixed, I'll have to pay out of pocket. My solution is they should reverse the charge to our car insurance so I can go get it done right elsewhere. They don't care, and all I get is the same robotic answers.

Don't use Freehold NJ Safelite! Use a local auto glass repair service that will care about a proper repair.

Lawsuit after car repoed NJ

A family member defaulted on a car loan on July 2019 in Kentucky. Car was repoed October 2019 and auctioned off in October 2019. They are now being sued for remaining balance of loan in Camden County, NJ courts. What is the best way to handle this? I thought there was a statute of 4 years. Thanks!

This whole fiasco had me wondering.

View Poll

On the mail it says philisburg NJ but this location is all the way up and says harmony as well. It’s so confusing. I do have 3 kids and currently I homeschool but want to put my kids back in school so I can work. I already saw to stay far away from Philisburg nj. We are in Union county currently. My dream is Sussex county. No luck yet. We are still looking.. what are your thoughts?

I have a few tickets available to see TSO at the Prudential Center for the 3pm show tomorrow 12/20. Send me a chat if interested

Hi everyone! I’m looking for an affordable hair salon/stylist in the area that knows how to work with wavy-curly hair (2b-3a texture) and has experience with bleaching and vivid dyed hair. I’ve been bleaching and dyeing my hair at home for a while but I’m sick of staining my bathtub blue, but dropping 400+ dollars on some blue hair feels crazy so I need advice. Ideally, I’d love a place that’s good with both color and curly/wavy textures while remaining in the 100$-300$ range if possible. Any recommendations would be super appreciated!

The NJEDA has a number of grants for retail small business. Of course, there would be some paperwork and some pre-requisites. But if you meet the conditions you are not competing to be among the first few to apply.

• Lease grant
• Improvement grant (also has some funds for homebased businesses)
• E-commerce support program

There is also this new Main Street Acquisition support grant where you can get up to $50K of closing costs when you buy a property that is used for business purposes.

Scary scary day.

Today was very eventful day and I'm going to keep this short.

1. Left the respite pretty early this morning to psych eval appointment.
2. On my way, started having a chest pain and throbbing headache. Was scared shitless.
3. Called the doc office to cancel, and called Hackensack ER, let them know I'm coming, and I have a service dog.
4. By the time I get there, they checked me in right away in an isolation room.
5. My dog took over the bed. I don't blame him. Kicked him out of the bed. i needed to rest.
6. Blood drawn, BP super high, EKG on.
7. IV bag of BP med, chest xray, few pills, waiting for blood result. super anxious.
8. No problem with heart, thank god, but BP still super high.
9. Stayed few more hours for BP to stabilize. Discharged.
10. Soup to nuts, I was in ER for about 8 hours. I didn;t get any work done today. Kinda bummed about it. another set back.

Decided to bite the bullet and get a "regular" car insurance with state minimum coverage so I can get the registration restored. Realized I don't want to be without insurance or registration. If something were to happen, I can't risk my car taken away from me. Once I get a replacement medicaid card, I'll apply for the SAIP and cancel this one.

Well, that's it for the day.

our water smells like turpentine. super weird, the water company says no boiling necessary and says it’s okay to drink, but this is a new one for me. People across multiple towns are saying the water looks discolored and strongly smells like chemicals… personally i’m not drinking it.
