Hey
Y'all,
It may be
Tuesday but we’re not feeling any blues today. In fact, we’re pretty pumped
for this whole week.
WHY, you may
ask? Because it’s Pizza
Tasting Week, a glorious time when the toastiest, fanciest pizzas enter
our lives (and mouths). 🍕🍾
Office-sharing
powerhouse WeWork is expanding its horizons by inspiring
young minds with its upcoming “WeGrow” school program. Where was this
when we were kids?! 👨👩👦👦🌷📝
And you can
expand your own noggin’ by checking out any of our top
November art shows! As the season comes to a close, we can see they
clearly saved the best for last. 🎨🖌
Speaking of
creativity, we’re counting the seconds ‘til Slim
Cinema’s Vertical Film Festival when we can celebrate original vertical
short films, local artists, and good vibes! See you there! 🎥🎞🎟
Finally, get a
glimpse of the quest for a good night’s sleep from a
dog’s eye view... and maybe pick up a few pointers on how to up your own
bedsheet game! [sponsored] 🐶😵🛏
|
|
Pizza Party
The
only thing better than indulging in the city's most delectable pizza pies?
Getting to try them all in one week!
Celebrate Pizza Tasting Week with the brilliant minds behind Italian
Restaurant Week and sink your teeth into these creative and classic pies.
Hey, we can always start our diets after Thanksgiving, right? Read more…
|
|
The Kids Are All Right
WeWork
is taking over. From business to co-living, it's no surprise to hear they'll
be making their way into NYC's educational sphere.
They'll be introducing a new approach to education with WeGrow, coming next
fall! Keep your eyes peeled for the young minds about to be molded! Read more…
|
|
Art Guide
Sometimes,
a good art show is just what you need to refresh your mind and inspire your
grind.
And since a lot of NYC galleries will close their doors for the winter, the
shows going on this November be the last chance to get your creative fix! Read more…

a good night's sleep is hard enough for humankind, but man's best friend is
at our mercy.
Yet one lucky critter had owners smart enough to grab these comfy bedsheets
and he's been sleeping sound ever since!

The Rewind/Unwind
This week, we’re
all about expanding brains and tummies alike.
Speaking of
mind-benders, we had a lot
of thoughts about the MTA’s recent decision to do away with "ladies
and gentleman" in favor of gender-neutral terms.
We were psyched
to see even the mighty Cleveland Cavaliers take good ol’ subway like us
normals. But it turns out sitting next to Lebron James is no picnic!
Peace, love and
good vibes,
spoiled NYC team

Happy
Hump Day! 🐪 Just think, in exactly one week, you'll be free for the
holiday weekend! And totally ready to down a hearty meal.
Not exactly
thrilled to do all that cooking prep? Our Thanksgiving
Dinner Guide does all the work for you, no matter what your budget is.
Because hey, we can't all be Gordon Ramsey. 🦃🦃🦃
In other news,
the MTA is introducing a new fare
capping system. Because why guess if a monthly or weekly is worth it when
they can do the math for us? 🚉🤑
Speaking of the
subway, ridership
is down since peaking last year. New Yorkers are opting to drive, hop on
a bus, or even bike just to avoid subways.🙅
Another activity
we're constantly avoiding? Laundry. But with Cleanly's $1,000
giveaway, you could win free laundry for an entire year. See ya, sky-high
dirty clothing piles! 👕👗
BTW, you may
have gotten an email earlier without a subject line. 😔 Let us know if
you received it and we'll make sure it's corrected. Thank you. ❤️

Let's Get Stuffed
You
don't need to to be a culinary artist or throw down a ton of ca$h to enjoy
one of the happiest and yummiest days of the year.
There's plenty of delectable Thanksgiving dinner celebrations going down. And
if you're like us, you might let the professionals cook up a holiday feast so
that you don't have to!
Here's a roundup of our faves at any price! Read more…
|
|
Save It
This
is a bold step towards a more efficient, less stressful MTA commute.
What's
"fare capping?" It's a little confusing at first, but it's
meant to make the subway more fair, affordable and personalized, catering to
each rider.
|
|
Not Worth It
Since
peaking in 2016, subway ridership has decreased as people find new ways to
get around.
The inconveniences and delays just aren't worth it for some of these
unsatisfied commuters.
Uber, Lyft, or even playing the high-risk "game" of biking in NYC
is apparently more appealing than the subway. Read more…
|
|
Free Laundry
Doing
laundry might just be one of the most miserable, monotonous chores of all
time. If the sight of an overflowing hamper makes you cringe, we have the
perfect solution for you.
Cleanly, the laundry service app, is giving away a free year of laundry and
dry cleaning with a grand prize worth $1,000!
May the free laundry odds be ever in your favor. Read more…
|
|
The Rewind/Unwind
Ready to
teleport to the Italian Alps via Eataly's wintry pop-up
restaurant? Hell yeah, we want to snuggle up to some comfort food inside
a dine-in log cabin.
Have you seen
this gorgeous aerial
time-lapse of the city? These beautiful day-to-night views remind us why
we're so in love with this town and thankful just to be here.
What are you
thankful for?
Blessing and
good vibes only,
spoiled NYC
