Hi from PA! From the Welcome Board

[PADISFAM]

Hi everyone! Checking in from Pittsburgh (North Hills specifically!) on this sunny Tuesday! I'm from North Hills originally, DH is from Penn Hills, and we both went to Clarion for our undergrad. Glad to see everyone here!

Northhills is a wonderful place, love the Franklin Covey in the Ross Park Mall!

It is great to see so many people from Pgh. I live in South Fayette.

I see lots of folks from the 'burgh', I keep trying to find more
Erie-ites, I think we're up to 3 or 4

It's a long story really, but mainly I think a change of scenery would be good for me. I'm not a "new" student, I'll be a sophomore when I get up there, but I'm suppose to be a junior. My local community college keeps dropping my classes for some reason, and it's getting a tad much for me LOL.

So how much do you think I'll freeze my behind off my first winter?

Well, I won't lie---it'll be cold. Jan & Feb are pretty nasty, other than that--it's just a little bit nasty!
Do you know where you are staying? If on campus I would recommend Earp Hall, very nice all girls dorm, Rose would be my 2nd fav. Off Campus Darrow apts & College Park are both ok.

I haven't been there for a very long time myself.
WOW- Adamstown. You are sooo close to me.
Somebody was just telling me tonight that go to the Adamstown pool during the summers and that its a great pool !!

The pool is okay, I guess. It's bigger than others around here. It's getting to be too small, though, as everyone seems to think that Adamstown is the place to live nowadays. It used to be a nice small town, now it's full of Antiques... UGH!!!!

Erie-ites, I think we're up to 3 or 4

I live in the 'burgh now, but I used to live in Erie. Does that count?

My favorite Erie joke:

Question: What do you do in the summertime in Erie for fun?
Answer: If it falls on a Saturday we have a picnic.

YEP!! It's open. I was there yesterday. I asked the lady that worked there if it was a "true" outlet. She said they carry the same stuff as the store, just no media. They had the same prices and stuff as my store in the local mall.
I was soooo disappointed !!

I agree - I was out there a couple of weeks ago and although they have a couple of clearance racks, nothing better than the Disney Store at the Exton Mall! I did get a Bambi doll for my little one for 99 cents.

Hi, all I'm a PA girl too as my name implies...Lancaster County representing!

Where in Lancaster County are you from?? As you can see, I live in Adamstown... we may be neighbors!!

Not too far here either - just east of Lancaster County - I tell people I'm 25 minutes from the outlets. Gives them a better idea of how close I really am to Lancaster! I'm originally from South Jersey, so no one can understand how I made it way out here. I love it, though!

I get that all the time. I am originally from Philly, and moved out to Berks County 12 years ago. People thought I was nuts Best move I ever made.

Can someone enlighten me about the store Sharp Shopper?
I'm looking for locations, prices, do they accept coupons, and would it be worth a trip there?
Thanks

They have a website. www.smartshopper.com. Don't ask me why it's different I just made my first visit to one this week and it was so worth the trip. I got 2 carts of groceries for $120. I don't know if they take coupons and you have to watch the prices. Some of their items were more expensive than a regular grocery store but if you know your pricing, you should enjoy it.

Another central PA'er here.... York County to be precise.... of course, as close as I am to the river, I'm not too far from Lancaster either.
