Near the summit of Mt. Wachusett there’s a vista that opens up and you can see for miles off the side of the mountain where there’s lakes and forest and sometimes little planes cruising along at eye level. And there’s never anyone there.

I’ve found offer up very unreliable. Nextdoor won’t get you much traffic and the people who do use it, tend to be older. Craigslist is good because it covers a wide area, and a lot of people use it. FB is good because it has such a massive reach to people, local and distant. It really depends on what is being sold, but many things I want to sell I post on CL and FB for best coverage.

Thankfully that never happened where I worked. It was always a concern for me though because the sink where we made coffee and washed out the carafes had all its grey water pool in a tank and when there was enough of it, it was pumped out of the tank, up to the ceiling level where it traveled through the store, into the back room where it drained out into a big sink. It smelled absolutely putrid. I don’t know how it wasn’t a heath code violation.

Awesome place though. I miss working there sometimes!

I worked at the Cumbys in North Grafton for 3-4 years. I actually zoomed in on the picture to see if I was behind the counter before I realized the store was very similar, but not this exact one. I like the legacy stores more than the newer looking ones.

For what it cost, there must have been a dozen options to honor the Kings that would have been better.

Ahhh. My bad. I thought your 500$ payment was for the bills mentioned by OP not for buying a panel. I totally agree that buying outright is the better option, I just didn’t want to make that investment. With the lease, the solar company maintains them and replaces broken panels, which to me is worth it for the convenience. For most people in most scenarios, I’d advocate ownership. At the very least DONT choose Sunrun as a provider.

Where is this guy only paying $500 a year?

My electric bill used to be ~$200/month. Now it’s $70. It’s good savings as far as I’m concerned. I could have saved more but buying but I’m still saving something.

I agree and disagree. Wish I had bought outright, and own the system, but I chose to lease them. It’s 70$ a month, and I haven’t had to pay for electricity over that since the system got installed. It’s not a great option, but 70$ on a lease is better than $500

I had a tooth pulled by Robert McCarthy, cost $80 and was in and out in 30 minutes.

One of the Dunks in Auburn has one of these rooms. Never see anyone use it though

I’ve been doing observation hours in a local elementary school. They are very big on phonics. They use a program called ECRI and it’s part of the day, every day. They also do a thing called intervention which is designed to allow students to practice phonics and reading skills.
