There is an "eiruv" from Westgate to lutzk. But I don't hold of it.

Otherwise I'm pretty sure there are no other eiruvim that cross over central. There a couple along the sidewalks of central like by Columbus shul.
Thank you.

Is there really none? Or that shmuck doesn't hold of it?
Why are you calling him names before you even know the facts? It is most likely the guy who actually takes care of the eruv.

This. The others very specifically exclude Central.
Feelings don't care about your facts

Not sure if that's who you're referring to, but he does the service you asked about.

BMG's Rabbi Burztein, who was nifter recently, was very good at helping guys with this. I personally got served a call for jury duty and I pushed it off once or twice, as it was during studies. Eventually, I got a date during bain hazmanim and they couldn't help me (Even though it was the last day before the zman).

I ended up going down and everyone got dismissed as both pending cases settled. I'm off now for 3 years.
(Interesting hashgacha - I was supposed to come in Tuesday. I called and they said I could come in Monday also if I wished. I did, and got dismissed. They told us that Tuesday is for criminal cases - which never settle. So if I would have come in Tuesday, there would have been less of a chance of getting dismissed. This was in Toms River BTW.)

I think the dollar store has a lot of good stuff. I would also try Center of Town or Walmart. I would avoid online shopping, like Amazon, as the generally cheap items are often inflated to make up for the shipping prices.

There's some stuff that are cheaper at a dollar store but I think most things are cheaper at a Walmart or Staples.

Also some stuff in the Dollar store aren't good quality i.e. some of the pens.
