Not only was my bill less than $40.00, [...] Laundry in New York… How do you do laundry in New York City? Since most apartments don’t have washers and dryers in the building, you can take your laundry to the laundromat yourself, you can drop it off for pick-up service at the laundromat, or you can pay to have someone pick up and drop off your [...] Dad pulled in to Brooklyn just before 2 p.m., and after finding a parking space and exchanging a bear hug, we headed to La Bagel Delight for a sandwich.
