Steve explains how to explain how you want your tea.

Kristi has some suggestions about where to score cheap beauty treatments in the Capital Region.

Naomi found a place to donate used furniture.

Leah says she's lucky to live so close to the State Museum.

Celina found some good, cheap ham at the Chopper.

As Rob points out, you never hear about the good stories involving beer.
