I hate 7-Eleven

I could go on a long list of why I hate these corporate whores but this is specifically regarding just one issue, their insistence on putting beer in a plastic bag before allowing the customer to leave the store.

They always tell me that it is NYS law that beer must be placed in a bag unless it is in the form of a twelve pack. There is no law, and I'm not sure how to prove that a law doesn't exist, but I did find this...

A reader writes:

What is the law regarding alcoholic beverages and if they need to be put in a bag when purchased? I recently bought a six pack of beer which obviously comes in a convenient carrying container, but was told that it needed to be in a bag. When I asked why, I was told that it was the law. I politely asked which one and was told, “The state law”. I was amused so I asked which state law and didn’t get an answer. So which law is it?

I forwarded the question to the State Liquor Authority. The response, from Leslie W. Trebby, an associate attorney in the SLA’s Office of Counsel:

I have reviewed the New York Alcoholic Beverage Control Law and the Rules of the New York State Liquor Authority and have found no provision that requires a grocery store licensed to sell beer (or a retail package liquor store) to place a purchased alcoholic beverage item into a bag

In the absence of a provision in the ABC Law or in the Authority’s rules specifically addressing this issue, I am of the view that the seller is under no legal obligation to place the purchased item into a bag.

So I made another complaint on their website but this time I did it store specific and I hope I get a response.

I know this is such a ridiculous thing to get angry about but it makes me so crazy because it's just such a stupid thing to have to fight people about. When I tell them I don't want a bag they will say "Oh well you can do whatever you want with it once you get out of the store"but they just don't get that the reason you don't want the bag is because you didn't want it to exist in the first place. Ugh!

My hands are a wreck and f/u winter

I let my hands get so bad from the very harsh winter and occupational hazards and now I have fissures going up and down my finger tips. Went from not moisturizing at all to moisturizing as much as I possibly can and I'm wondering if my hands will ever look normal again or if I permanently disfigured them?! considering getting paraffin at home and melting in crockpot with one of those bag liners. The wax coating somehow draws moisture from within your body to your skin surface to assist in moisturizing. I should probably use gloves when cleaning, at least until they are healed but I can't stand wearing them. I'm also having a hard time finding paraffin that might not contain perfumes or antibacterial agents. I need like 6lbs of it.

How close is too close?

Does anyone know how close might be too close to live by the Peace Bridge? Is there any way to really know?

metalpeter writes at 02:23:29 02/22/14 - Comment #71364: I wish I knew... I don't know the traffic Patterns or how wind blows as big trucks sit there... but I wonder if there is zone where if you are close enough like almost on water (not sure if there are houses there) where that bad stuff goes over you .... But to be honest who knows cause who knows if they build another bridge or how they change stuff.... I wish you luck on the house ... I wonder is that information the house seller has to give you ? I know some things they have to .....

libertad writes at 10:20:07 02/22/14 - Comment #71359: Thanks so much Joe for all the information. It really complicates home buying when you have to worry about environmental contaminants. I've been really curious about a large double on 440 Plymouth but it is less than a mile from the bridge and I'm pretty sure that is too close. This particular house interests me because it has a big lot with empty spaces on both sides and in the back. An elementary school is in front of it reducing the chances of annoying neighbors. :::link:::

I'll just have to keep waiting patiently for more inventory. There is another property i'm interested in but they are asking almost 20k more than the bank pre approved me for. Working with bank to see if I can get more money and that is a possibility, I just need to submit more information. It's a very real possibility that Mike and I will need to move to another apartment before I find a suitable house for us to live in...

joe writes at 09:23:50 02/20/14 - Comment #71336: So it depends on what parts of air quality you're concerned about. But there are a bunch of studies by Dr. Lwebuga-Mukasa from UB about air quality on the west side. :::link::: :::link:::

This map from the second study shows by census block that the ones adjacent are obviously the worst for asthma. It's kind of hard to parse out the boundaries but it looks like the neighborhood mostly below Utica and west of Richmond has the highest concentration of cases. :::link:::
Census block map - :::link:::

For the first study if you go to Figure 69 on page 100, and figures 53-57 on pgs. 86-88. It looks like when there's a decent west wind (common) pretty much the entire west side sucks for particulate matter pollution which cause and exacerbate asthma.

Obviously the better further you are away. The state DEC claims the air is safe and that the health issues are from demographics, but the EPA and the Clean Air Coalition disagree. :::link:::

I never really read the studies before but there is a lot of data. I bet the CAC probably has a bunch of good summaries if you got in touch with them.

finances

You can see from my inbox my current situation. I paid my credit card and then promptly canceled reoccurring charges (luxuries). Also not pictured was my amazon prime free trial, I canceled that too.

I'm a little disappointed with my spending, while making progress towards my goals I'm in not as good a place as I could be.

Suze always says to stand in your own truth, I really need to work on that.

I'll be going for preapproval for a mortgage soon. I'm wondering if now is the time to buy, so far, i haven't been too impressed with the inventory. I really want to feel very good about what I buy. nervous that I'll not find something and have to find a new place to rent since we can't stay where we are. I want to settle soon and not keep moving all the time.
