    We have our passports, but decided on getting global entry cards since we are planning a fall trip to London (Coronavirus pending). It also adds TSA precheck and doubles as Real ID. Easy to apply online and had to go to a 15 minute appt where they took our picture, fingerprints and a short...

    Walgreens

    If the prescription came from a central fill location, that's done to lighten the duties of the local pharmacy. The local pharmacy wouldn't double check the count, otherwise, it eliminates the purpose of central fill.

    Harassment from a company for posting a negative review?

    I got the same Paypal message from a company that I bought a printer from. They never shipped the printer, sent me an email that they would refund my money without any explanation. I waited the next 5 days and did not receive my refund. I filed the claim with Paypal and had it resolved in...

    Pittsburghers: Restaurant near Benedum

    I second August Henry. We tried it the last time we were in town for a show and we would go back. If you're looking for Italian, you can try Palazzo Ristorante on 6th St which across from Heinz Hall. Both places are a bit small, but you can make reservations and both are child friendly.

    Ticketmaster question

    Do you have an actual ticket or is it a "paperless" ticket where you have to show your credit card at the concert? If you have a ticket (either sent by TM or printed at home), you're fine, but those paperless tickets require the credit card holder that bought the ticket to show up at the gate...

    Which amusement park should we go to?

    Kennywood would be close to 4 hours. Would I drive 4 hours to get to Kennywood? Probably not, but some may depending on what you are looking for. They have 3 wooden coasters and 2 steel coasters. There's 3 water rides, 2 will get you soaked. The newest ride is the Black Widow where you...

    Invasive phone call from pharmacist

    I read all the pages of posts and came away with 1 thought. Everyone has different tastes and that's why there are options for everyone to satisfy their desires. Nobody is right or wrong here. It's all a matter of personal preference. However, I did have to ask one question about this...

    Tire Warranty?

    Take your car and the receipt for the tires back to the place you bought them. They will inspect the tires and assuming all 4 are worn equally, they will prorate the price of the new set. If they are 50,000 tires and you have 28,000 on them, look for about a 40% discount off the price of...

    What is your favorite US "non-Disney" resort type vacation spot???

    I second Kingston Plantation. In addition to Embassy Suites, you can rent villas that are a few minutes from the beach or a condo in 1 of the oceanfront highrises. We rented villas off VRBO that were much cheaper than renting them through Embassy. The complex is very clean and well kept...

    OT-? Kennywood and Sancastle Waterpark

    Definitely avoid weekends. Even with the schools, it is not that bad if you get there early. Park gates open 10 or 10:30 and rides start 1/2 hour later. You can cover the big rides (Phantom' Revenge, Racers, Sky Rocket, Thunderbolt) pretty quickly. The park is not that big, you can walk from...

    Baltimore MD

    All the hotels near the Inner Harbor are expensive. You can try near BWI Airport. All the popular chains and less expensive. You can still drive to the harbor for dinner, it's only about 10 minutes away.

    Headphones for car?

    Normally they are wireless infared headphones. You can use any type or brand as long as they are IR. I picked up some on e-bay. You can even type in Honda CRV headphones and they will pop up. I would talk to the dealer about a second set. In the 3 vehicles that we bought with DVD's, there...
