Interested, though I can go on my own time because we have a car. Give priority to another, unless you're short a person.

eeng168 · 10-08-2012, 12:12 AM

Count me in...

If it's during the week day, I have no problem calling in sick. LOL

Monster Fish · 10-08-2012, 12:17 AM

Might be fun. I'm interested.

kubalik · 10-08-2012, 12:21 AM

You already know ,I'm in.

VivaDaWolf · 10-08-2012, 12:47 AM

I wanna be in. No car though. Probably easier for me to get a weekday off since I've been asking for so many saturdays off LOL.

DeLaFe · 10-08-2012, 02:33 AM

I plan on going to Ridgewood tomorrow. (Taking my grandmother back home in NJ tomorrow morning) But from what I hear, I will probably want to go back again soon! (We also have a minivan, but during the week we have our two little girls with us)

I'm in.

**aznrice247** · 10-08-2012, 04:28 AM

I'm interested but aughhhh I live in Central NJ and no car D: But I could go out to the city on weekends... *my dad goes out to the lower east side a lot.

**acitydweller** · 10-08-2012, 05:01 AM

Thanks for the feedback. Don't be too concerned with the car situation yet as we will definitely carpool there once we get a headcount. I have a two seater and not the best candidate to drive however I can pickup someone and drive to meet up with others who can seat more people, for example.

Are people generally preferring saturday or can we swing a weekday? For me a weekday might be easier.

Monster Fish · 10-08-2012, 05:15 AM

I can do Fridays or the weekend.

chibikaie · 10-08-2012, 06:04 AM

Wish I could, can't make it either time.

**aznrice247** · 10-08-2012, 06:57 AM

I could be fine with fridays i have those days off. Its just getting out thats the problem.

**shloken38** · 10-08-2012, 12:15 PM

Oh man....if you guys did this on a Saturday, I'd be in. I also have a mini van and can grab 5 of you from the NJ side of the Lincoln Tunnel (I live within a mile). I also know NJ pretty well and all of these stores. I went on a little run myself on Saturday. Maybe with ample notice, I just might be able to squeeze a day off.

kubalik · 10-08-2012, 01:18 PM

every other Thursday or Friday works for me
