Nice Surprise: When your hotel has a watch shop right in the lobby!

Oris, Citizen, Breitling, and Tag.

Too bad there’s nothing like college tours for kid number two to make you swear off high-priced watch shopping for a decade or so.

I feel your pain. My youngest is off to college in the fall. The cost of tuition is bonkers.

I tried to sell my kid before his college years started but my wife took down the sign.

It’s expensive but it sure is wonderful to see if they are involved, really working hard, and enjoying it. Worth it!

I heard good things about Saltzman

College is overrated. Buy the watch.

For sure. The only thing more expensive that an interested kid is a disinterested one!

Looks at colleges for my daughter in 2015-16. It was love at first sight with the University of Alabama. Bama has lots of merit $ based on GPA and SAT/ACT scores regardless of income. Best decision she ever made. Did well and got almost a full ride to South Carolina for grad school. My school was under 8k in 83. It’s now over 80k. Costs r out of control.

Agree. I went in 86 and 91 to state schools, and it was real money, but this is nuts. My daughter is a freshman and my son will be one next year. We’ve been saving like mad since their births, and it’s still kooky.

Looking at your profile, I see that you’re in CT. We are there right now: Saw UConn today.

Uconn is in the middle of nowhere. The school likes out of state students as they can charge more tutition. Only positive is the school dairy. You had a crappy day to visit.
