Reply to Can I get euros on the spot? by briang71
If you are traveling and can wait until you get to your destination most airports in Europe will have a Bureau de Change or setup your ATM card so you can withdraw monies that way. You will get the best exchange rate. American banks will have a high rate of exchange plus other fees.

Yes, although it is in fact Pepperidge Farm. Pepperidge is a type of tree.

Yes, and by a woman. In the 1930s.

They have had open "tour" dates as part of the Garden Conservancy. But they're not always on the schedule of open gardens. You can check through the Conservancy's website. They usually start tours May/June and then again in Autumn. If you can get in it's a really beautiful site. Privately owned.

Yes, but they still have a presence in Norwalk. They're off the Post Rd near Whole Foods.

Forever is not long enough in my opinion. Be thankful you still have a DL and can procure auto insurance.

I used to drive into NYC for work and would heave a sigh of relief when I made it back over the state line without car damage. Some of the pot holes....lawd help me.

You can't be driving in NY very often because the roads are much worse than CT.

You cannot have driven on NY highways if you think CT has bad roads.

I used to call Lieberman the Senator from the State of Israel. That's all he cared about: the subsidies for Israel. He didn't give a damn about CT. Not one eff to give.

Reply to Trader Joe’s vs Stew’s by Flimsy_Bit_2908
I think it's difficult to unequivocally state that shopping one over the other or exclusively any one grocery store is advisable. I live in So. Ffld County and shop TJs, Stews, WFs, and S&S. No one place has everything. I won't buy meat from S&S (too many bad experiences). I buy Veg from different places, Stews bakery is the best of the bunch. If the ShopRite near me was updated I would shop there more often. If Big Y was in the area I might shop them for most everything except TJs specialities. Wegmans is moving in soon...lol.

There used to be a place in Cheshire off of 84 that had long dogs, too. I believe it's called Blackie's. My Dad loved that place back in the day.

Reply to comment by Will_delete_soon78 in Norwalk Home Appreciation by Will_delete_soon78
Yeah, I bought property in SONO 16 years ago because a development was starting next door with residential, commercial, street level retail, and a park. The city gave the developer such a hard time that they sold the property and it sat vacant for years...now it's a mall.
My point is it's a bit difficult to predict. You may want to look at the city's Facebook page and also search for other "Norwalk" FB pages. There are a few that cover Norwalk news and upcoming developments and projects.
