[Highland Park] Reminder: HP-resident-owned Fireworks Tent
by Jim Banko 23 Jun '11

23 Jun '11

Hi everyone, As promised, here is the reminder about the fireworks tent that my company is running in Plum Borough, in the parking lot of Puff Discount Tobacco, about 20 minutes East of Highland Park (for directions from HP, copy the Google map link below into your web browser). Our competitors' displays have started popping up in gas stations and stores and I have confirmed first-hand that our prices are as good if not better on all comparable items. Hope to see you out in Plum, and don't forget to mention that you know me for an extra 10% off. Thanks! http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=N+Negley+Ave,+Pittsburgh,+Pennsylvania&da… Jim Banko Bryant Street Neighbors, I wanted to take an opportunity to use the listserv for some shameless self-promotion. Two years ago I founded Patriot Fireworks LLC along with a friend of mine who had experience working in the fireworks industry. We saw how the big players in fireworks were increasing prices every year while also lowering the quality of their product. So we decided to see if we could do better and made a promise to ourselves that we would only sell quality fireworks and that we wouldn't "get greedy" like the big names have. We started out with 2 tents, one here in Pittsburgh and another in King of Prussia where my partner lives. Two years later we have expanded to 9 seasonal retail locations and also moved into wholesaling and guaranteed product services. Our tents are small and not as flashy as our competitors, but this allows us to keep our costs down. Despite the larger tents that the other guys use, we actually have a wider variety of products as well. The bigger companies have 1000 square foot tents and spread the same items around to different areas of the tent to make it look like they have a bigger variety. Don't be fooled. Most of our locations are in eastern PA, but we still have our original tent here in Pittsburgh at Puff Discount Tobacco in Plum Township. If anyone is interested in fireworks this summer, I would like to encourage you to give us a chance. We sell Shogun brand fireworks from China and have been very pleased with the quality and value of these items. While I prefer to support U.S. manufacturers whenever I can, I have to say that when it comes to fireworks, the Chinese still make them better than anyone and at a price that allows us to match or beat the prices of our competitors. Again, our tent location is at Puff Discount Tobacco in Plum at 7901 Saltsburg Rd, Pittsburgh, PA 15239. It's a little out of the way for HP'ers, but its worth it. Mention that you saw this ad and you'll receive an additional 10% off your purchase, just because you know me. Cash and credit cards accepted. Also, we only sell items that are legal for sale and use in Pennsylvania. The tent will be open starting Friday June 24th through Monday July 4th. Hours are as follows: Friday June 24th - Sunday June 26th: 9:00am - 9:00pm Monday June 27th - Thursday June 30th: 12:00pm - 9:00pm Friday July 1st - Monday July 4th: 9:00am - 9:00pm I will be sending a reminder later in the week when we are up and running. Hope to see you there. Thanks! Jim Banko Bryant Street

[Highland Park] Landscaping and Moving Specialists
by Ethan Osterhout 22 Jun '11

22 Jun '11

A friend and I have done pretty well for ourselves over the past 3 summers with landscaping and moving jobs. As far as yard work is concerned, we do everything from lawn mowing to lawn tilling. We've gotten calls all over the city, so traveling isn't an issue. We each have full sized trucks, along with plenty of tools and experience. As far as moving is concerned, we're both strong, capable and dependable workers. Our knowledge and experience in moving any items, large or small, makes itself obvious within minutes. I say this because a recent client in North Huntingdon said exactly that. Our rates are fair: $15 per hour per person for yard work, with a $30 gas fee if you need anything hauled off of your property. However, please consider the fact that it is near-impossible to find legitimate places to dump dirt and/or rocks. If you know of a legitimate place that's a different story, but it's generally too difficult to accomodate. For moving jobs, our rates are simple: $25 per hour per person, with a flat rate of $30 for gas, for each truck. If you need any of this sort of work done, don't hesitate to call either Ethan Osterhout at 412-537-5296, or David Weeber at 412-508-4526.
