And note that even the owner of the uniform store thinks having uniforms is a good idea!!! Lol

It's like asking the owner of a carpet store if he recommends tile or carpet  Duh

I've never had a problem of Marcia Jon cleaners running tires or a talis. I have used them for both and was very happy. They are in the shopping center at the corner of New Prospect and County Line just into Jackson before the Jackson co-op

Do you for fact they are good, or you just never heard of a problem? (Running tires?)
I have an expensive tie and many cleaners are unable to clean them without ruining them in some way. In addition, I've used marcia jon and was not impressed.
Does anyone else have experience there?

I've used them and have always been happy. I probably don't wear ties like the ones you are referring to so I can't answer about that. The ties that I have were fine.


I guess this thread isn't totally off about Lakewood.

Warning: I used a gift card to get gas at the BP on Rt. 9 & Main St., and I noticed the guy swapped my GC for one in his pocket and shows me that the screen read it's empty, and he hand me back the GC. I pointed out to him that it wasn't the GC I gave him, b/c it was brand new, this one looks overused, to which he asks me to see it and quickly swapped it back...

I can't believe people still use that place. there have been so many stories over the past couple of years.
People that uses CC's there started seeing fraudulent transactions on their card, they were serving gas mixed with water...
