If you like to gamble and are good at estimating percentages, you might be able to save some coin when you park in Port Jefferson.

Reusable "free parking" signs will be purchased at $175 each to be posted over signage already in place at the entrances to all the metered lots during the four-month parking holiday, village trustees decided Monday.Countdown to free parking down Port.
