I’ve lived in southwestern Pennsylvania my whole life, Scott Township/Wash,PA/Swissvale, and I’ve always known what it means. Of course I’m 66, old enough to be yinz mom or grandma!

I haven’t been here yet, but my daughter and my friend have said it’s great.

My husband and I used Davis, Davis & Associates in the Strip District for almost 40 years. My husband’s family has used them longer than that. I have continued to use them after my husband died almost six years ago.

I know! But need a new fridge and not being able to put magnets on the front is a deal breaker!

I don’t mind getting that hour back from the spring, I’m just tired of switching. Just pick a time and stick to it!

Reply to Trick or Treating time? by Stealth-R-Us
I’m in Swissvale. It’s 6 - 8 here. I made up little bags of candy, fruit gummies, and a Rice Krispie treat (individually wrapped). I’ve got 32 bags made up, I put on my Jack-o-lantern earrings and my Halloween necklace, I even brushed my hair! It’s past 7:30 and I’ve had no trick or treaters!
I am sad

Reply to what did Gimbels sell? by Daywalkingvampire
Horne’s had a wonderful art supply department. I also loved their book department and record department. The first time I was allowed to go back to school shopping with a friend I bought some really nice skirts and tops (couldn’t wear pants to school back then). Then we went to the book department. I went a bit nuts with mom’s credit card. (Each department store had their own.) Because they were books she wasn’t too upset, but I had to return about 2/3 of them. Horne’s was our favorite because our bus stop was nearby.
Kaufmann’s was where you (well, my family) went for “special” shopping. I got my wedding dress there and had most of my registry there. When I had my kids I loved their kids department. They had a great makeup department, too.
We didn’t go to Gimbels much. I don’t know why.

I’ve used Dr. Wagner many times. He is wonderful. Very knowledgeable and compassionate.
