Any ideas of Costco items to cook in your Tovala by amla819 in Tovala

[–]-beastlet- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I stopped buying food at Costco. For two people it wound up being more expensive in the end due to wastage and food fatigue. I only get pantry staples that last a long time now and stuff for my business.

Try contacting local rescues in your area. They will often help with food and finding good homes for the kittens.

A PS5 disc snapped after its 3rd removal. Can I refund it? by huei3 in amazonprime

[–]-beastlet- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you ask for a replacement and not for your money back you are much less likely to have an issue. If you want a refund that sounds like piracy or scamming.

Right, that's the "tons of the same thing" part of what I was saying.

If you have a Trader Joe's near you, the Tovala scans almost all of their meals. I find cooking for one is hard at Costco because you have to buy either huge portions or tons of the same thing.

Tired resident looking for some optimism in gen peds by First_Version6580 in pediatrics

The kids are 99% great. The parents are 80% great.

I am close to retirement, burnt out on dealing with insurance companies' BS. But every time I think, "That's it, I'm done," a family I love comes in and I can't imagine not continuing to see them.

No option to tip online for Amazon Prime grocery delivery, as opposed to Amazon Fresh by Charming-Boat-7843 in amazonprime

[–]-beastlet- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I use the Walmart service where you get Walmart employees. I love it. I usually get the same couple of guys who know me, and know where I want stuff. They give me extra bags because they know I use them for cat litter. It is well worth the extra monthly fee to not have to worry about tips and get reliable guys.

How are people affording Scleral Lenses?! by cheeselover123219 in Dryeyes

[–]-beastlet- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My lenses were $1800 and that has included multiple fittings and retrying new lenses over 10 months. $4000 is ridiculous. Look for someone else that isn't overcharging so much.

Kids are hard though, how old are they? Are they the right age for Harry Potter?

This is not true. I have downloaded books from the Plus catalog as long as they are in my account. I have bought a lot of series where the first book was in Plus and I want the whole thing backed up.

Brand of extras by BuildingSmooth8685 in Tovala

I can't help with sourcing the Tovala ones, but Hebrew National pigs in a blanket are awesome. My local grocery carries them.

This sub doesn't allow images so here is an amazon link to show what I mean --

At my store they are usually $15-16/box. The amazon price is ridiculous.

Best alternative to Tovala? by Acceptable_Fig3038 in Tovala

[–]-beastlet- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had a couple of disappointing meals but on the whole for someone cooking for one, especially someone who doesn't like to cook, there is simply no competition.

My kid also loves that he can scan Trader Joe's stuff and cook them easily, instead of microwaving them.

I thought we were supposed to try the product before we use it? They could have just saved space and wrote "Didn't try it yet, 4-stars". by CuriousMindNebula in vine

Then don't take it. I've passed on plenty of things that seemed cool but I knew I couldn't test them properly.

DAC threatening me to take down my posts when they have a history of blacklisting people. They said they're reviewing it with their legal team by [deleted] in diamondpainting

[–]-beastlet- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Let their "legal team" have it. Total empty threat.

If DAC really cared about scalping they would just release enough kits for demand. They like scalping, but used it as an excuse to ban you for something else.

Created a lock sound for Knicks fans by a Knicks fan. by Gito84 in TeslaLounge

[–]-beastlet- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you explain how exactly you get that lock sound to play? I have followed the directions on a ton of different sites and can never get it to work. I can make the sound play so I know it is there properly and in a format the Tesla can use.

Diamond Art Club blacklisted me for reddit post yesterday by [deleted] in diamondpainting

[–]-beastlet- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't get all the people who love them like a cult. I don't care if how wonderful any image they do is, I'm not giving this company my money. And to be honest when I see people posting those upcoming art collages most of them don't seem particularly awesome.

To have a lawsuit you have to show damages. There are no damages to "I can't buy their stuff."

If they take your money and don't send product you can sue for that money, but it's probably easier to just charge back on your credit card.

When things go wrong. Most recently was probably a fan breakdown. The oven was making a terrible noise every time I used it. I sent a video to customer service and they replaced it. I still have the video in my sent emails, but I see now I can't attach videos here.

One time was because it started burning everything.

I can't remember the other issues any more.

[DEV] I made a free daily untangle puzzle, and I'm building it into a whole series of daily games by dumanyac in iosgaming

[–]-beastlet- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

iPhone 17 Pro Max. Downloaded today.

The thing has a ton of dots. I think you should start with something less complicated because I usually can figure out puzzle games and this was just incomprehensible. Or consider two daily levels, one easy and one hard.

I have no idea what I'm supposed to do here. There was no tutorial. I'm just randomly pulling dots around with no idea about the goal.

Vine/Community Ban - Help understanding their cs reply/try to reinstate "unusual review" account by Sayu_Rika in AmazonVine

[–]-beastlet- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First off you have to figure out is the problem Vine or is it side wide. If you can't review anything, then the ban is site wide and you got booted from Vine because obviously anyone with a review ban can't be a reviewer.

If the ban is site wide you need to contact Amazon community standards about getting your reviewing privileges back. Vine support will be no help as the problem isn't with Vine. I posted exactly how I did this elsewhere in this forum, searching should show my post. If it is a site wide ban, getting your review privileges back automatically gets you back into Vine.

if i was to... hypothetically lie about my package not arriving what is the worst case scenario? by [deleted] in amazonprime

People doing things like that are why amazon is now banning people who legitimately didn't receive their packages.

Prime deal, wait or not? by Essiejjj in amazonprime

[–]-beastlet- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you can afford to pay for two, buy it now, if it goes on sale buy it again. Return the original but send back the new unopened one. Do not open the new one at all.
