Right. Big Oil, with its massive connections to the GOP, colluded with Democrats to help them keep the Senate and have a weak majority in the House. Got it. Makes sense.

Stew Leonard’s is often more expensive than Whole Foods- especially for produce. You need to be an educated consumer in there. Sometimes there are good deals, sometimes it’s just really high. Quality is consistently good though- that’s worth something. Edit: typo. Advisors / educated.

I came to the same discovery. I prefer a sales rep through a truck, 1 to give them business, and 2 so I establish a rapport for any warranty claims. I found a shop who put me in touch with a truck that runs the 91 corridor, got what I needed ordered so it all worked out.

Oh I know you can I’m just saying that often OpenTable shows them with no tables but every time I have called in that situation and gotten a table.

I'm not an experienced driver, but I took my test a couple years ago doing method #2 and didn't have any issues personally(or any parking deductions). It's way easier and natural and not as convuluted as the first, and plus, the guy in the first video didn't even park perfectly anyway, he went over the lines when backing up(because he pulled too far forward), which could potentially lose you points if you have someone strict, but maybe not. You really need to practice doing it though in the vehicle you'll be using, because that will determine your exact positions you'll need.
They want to know that you're confident behind the wheel, use proper turn signals(you need to make sure you use a turn signal for every move you make, even if it's overexaggeration), do not cross lines, and do not hit anything(including the back of the parking spot if there's a curb), and park center(not over the lines).
Note that with method #2, it requires more space and proper signal usage(it's easy to forget the signals during the test for it). I really struggled with method #1 in some cars, because I was trying to follow some strict rule.
You can't really count the spots ahead if they instruct you to park at the end spot. So just be mindful of trying different parking spot locations beforehand, because you don't always get to choose the spot you'll be parking in at the end of your test, and sometines in reality as well.
Try and go during the weekend and test in the parking lot in a few different spots(first spot, last one, center) to prepare.

Stew Leonards in Newington has better prices than I thought they would. Also, Trader Joes is a good option too!

Tandoor on Chapel St in New Haven is one of the very few restaurants that can make something too spicy for me.

You can book Arethusa through OpenTable. I ate there earlier this month with no issue.
