Honestly, I wouldn’t wait on it. You could be putting those savings towards your move, friend! The “beauty” of capitalism is that if you don’t like a business, you can walk away and find one that works for you. Car insurance is set up like that, and Geico will keep charging you until you’re fed up and decide the annoyance of shopping around is worth it. Doing it twice could save you money, but maybe if you choose a national provider, they just need to update your info and wouldn’t change your payment? Not sure but worth a try.

I’m a nobody person who’s around your age. The best thing I ever did was leave Geico and shop around other insurance carriers. Geico wanted to charge me 100% of my car payment as my insurance payment after 1 minor accident. (I would’ve been out $700 a month for my car)
Progressive (I’m not sure if they still do this) had a program where you insert a device on your car and they track how safely you drive (no hard stopping, no sudden fast acceleration) and if you drove well to their grading, they would increase or decrease your rates. Mine lowered, while my moms got worse so it’s not for everyone and you need to be really conscious driving. I pay $60 a month with a family plan and it goes lower almost every year, even when I had an accident in 2018 (with geico). Even without a family plan, I still suggest shopping around.
Start a new email for this cause you will get bombarded with emails. Shop around different insurance carriers. Get rates in emails and leave Geico. Geico will gouge you.

If we want to get really technical, Amazon’s are distribution centers, not warehouses or factories. Warehouses store items that are made from factories. Distribution centers receive goods from warehouses and distribute them out for routes and do not typically store items. In and out. Still cool to look at but don’t think Amazon is conducting any tours to the public. Source: work logistics and supply chain and worked at Amazon sort center

This was going to be my suggestion. Dark City and Kane breweries are really cool to look at.

That speaks to poor road design for how heavy traffic really is. Writing tickets isn’t a solution.

That traffic on 35 is going to be absolutely insane. Wawa, chik fil a, a hotel and “luxury apartments” all in one subdivision outside of the most cop-dense intersection for the whole town.

See, what I do is, get myself a litter picker, 2 trash bags and go on a nice walk. Fixing the problem takes all of us.

Breakwater for medical patients has daytime 5mg lozenges that go $50+. They’re really good and you get a lot of mints but the price is high for sure.

It’s been going on for 5+ years though. I have a lot of family in Holmdel and most car thefts there are people leaving their keys in their vehicles. I haven’t heard anything about home invasions to get key fobs though, that’s insane.
trixiewutang t1_iybnfni wrote
it’s because the residents of Holmdel refuse to take their keys out of their car when they go inside anywhere so this law would be pretty useless to stop stupidity.

Central / jersey shore. Depending on where exactly in highlands could straight up be called jersey shore. The inlet has its own bay and a small public beach for Atlantic highlands right next to Sandy hook so I’d absolutely consider that jersey shore. The stretch of highway leading to Middletown is more “central jersey” so you could say both.
Yes it’s pronounced cheese-quake.
