When I go up to CT from NJ I almost always take the Tappan Zee Bridge over the Hudson. It depends on what time you go, but if you go on I-287 you will have some traffic but it will not be as horrendous as the GWB. One "plus" is that 287 ends just north of Harrison and the only toll on 287 is crossing the TZB headed east (no toll westbound).

**edit

I just noticed on the sidebar it says you are from Greensboro. Have you considered taking I-81 to avoid tolls? That's how I went to Charlotte from northern NJ (well part of my trip that is). If you consider I-81 you take that to I-80 in PA, head east into NJ then that meets up with I-287 halfway across NJ.
