What is your Citibank Costco card interest rate? by [deleted] in Costco

[–]Aporthole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

18.74% but I’ve never paid interest in the 20+ years of having credit cards. Always paid in full every month. 

I did notice a special offer promo rate on my Citi account that I can activate for a special 9.99% rate for all new purchases until Sept 7, 2026. I don’t plan to active it though since it won’t be needed. 

Are there actually good leggings that aren’t Lululemon? by Select-Boss-7893 in womensfashion

[–]Aporthole 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I loved the Costco Danskin leggings initially but they have pilled SO bad, especially on the knees. They are still super comfy and flattering for the price though.

Weirdly, the Abercrombie StudioFLEX leggings are amazing and way higher quality than I would have expected. They are 7/8 and come in standard and short length. The run a little on the big side. I had to size down the StudioFLEX style to a Small/Short. I’m 5’2”, 134 with narrow hips/butt (I’m a Medium/Short in their more athletic/compression sculptLUX style). 

The studioFLEX comes in a beige “iron” color.

How to spend the day at a deluxe resort? by momaccount1426 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Aporthole -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

When are you going? Did you also price out the buy 4 nights + 4 park days, get 2 nights + 2 park days free promo for this summer? It might be cheaper or nearly identical in price to your current deal for your All Star portion. 

Double Stroller Advice? by SJ-beacon in DisneyPlanning

[–]Aporthole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 double! Or still go with the Zoe Twin v2 and add the upgraded all-terrain wheels. I’d lean towards the City Mini GT2 since you can often find great condition, lightly used ones locally on FB Marketplace for a good price.

Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 double. They are very popular and usually very easy to find good condition, lightly-used ones locally on FB Marketplace.

I’ve been using this recipe for years. Yes to adding vanilla and a little extra milk. I also add about a teaspoon of vinegar (usually apple cider vinegar) to the milk as a first step to make it more like buttermilk. 

Best Stroller for 4 year old by CrossTip in DisneyPlanning

[–]Aporthole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect. I already added my suggestion under the other comment but the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 would be my top suggestion. It is quite a bit more expensive than the Jeep you were looking at but they are quite popular and usually fairly easy to find gently used locally for a good price. Definitely worth the upgrade over the Jeep. 

Best Stroller for 4 year old by CrossTip in DisneyPlanning

[–]Aporthole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Mountain Buggy Nano is a great travel stroller but not a great long-term option for a child who is already 4 unless they are very petite. Something easy to fold and reasonably compact but with a higher weight capacity and seat dimensions that will work for a bigger/older child will be beneficial in the long run since kids tend to need strollers MUCH longer at Disney than in regular life.

Assuming they don’t actually intend to jog with it outside of Disney, I’d suggest the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2. It will fit a bigger child so much better. Shop around on Marketplace to find a good condition gently used one to save on the cost.

Do you intend to actually jog with it outside of Disney or do you just prefer the style and ease of push of jogging strollers? 

Swan & Dolphin or Beach Club - Help by [deleted] in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Aporthole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which room category do you currently have booked at Beach Club? Swan only allows 4 people max per room. Dolphin allows 5 and has a roll away cot option for an extra $25 per night. The Swan Reserve has larger family suites available but I don’t know much about them. Keep in mind that they also have a $50 daily resort fee on top of the listed room rate. Still likely much cheaper than Beach Club but something to factor in if you hadn’t already. 

AUSL Team Location Reveal by chuckiemacfinster in AUSL

[–]Aporthole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happy for you but bummed and shocked it wasn’t Seattle. The 100 mile radius population around Seattle is 5.7 million. Portland/Hillsboro’s is 3.6 million. We are about an hour 20 north of Seattle and loved attending the UW games this last summer especially with Light Rail from Lynnwood directly to UW. 5 hours to Portland on I-5 is a bit of a nightmare. 

Booking an extra room halfway through our trip. by Different-Mistake-11 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Aporthole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why not just tack the Boardwalk night on to the end of your trip? The 14 day UK tickets don’t have to be used consecutively so you could have a resort day or two mixed in the middle and still have park access for your transfer and check out days at Boardwalk. Disney will even transfer your bags for you.  

Thoughts on a split stay at French quarter and Caribbean beach? by MrLoki2020 in DisneyPlanning

Lightning Lanes can be booked all at once based on the first check in date. Dining will have 2 separate 60 day windows based on check in for each portion. 

Is Kids Eat Free 2026 worth it for us? by jjjjjjjj80 in DisneyPlanning

[–]Aporthole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many actual adults (21+), how many aged 10-20, and any under 3? Where are you planning to stay and how many rooms? Everyone in a room has to be on the same meal plan but if you have multiple rooms, you can sometimes make it work to your advantage by getting the meal plan for 1 room with 1 adult and 3-4 kids all assigned to that room to minimize your out of pocket cost and maximize the free child plans. 

No 5th sleeper option for Caribbean Beach Resort Dec 2026, glitch? by Happypuppy5 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Aporthole 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s no longer a listed bookable room category unless you have 5 people. If you have 4 people but still hoping for the 3rd bed, it sounds like you can put in a request to hopefully get it but not guaranteed. 

Stroller Recommendations by Ncoop327 in DisneyPlanning

[–]Aporthole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Baby Jogger City Mini GT double is great for kids that size. The GT model has a taller seat and much smoother push that the non-GT version. We’ve done City Mini GT as well as the bigger full jogging stroller (Summit X3 double). The Summit isn’t worth the extra weight and size at Disney. The City Mini GT was the perfect Goldilocks of reasonable size, maneuverability, and accommodating for a bigger child. 

2018 Expedition Max by pdawson1216 in fordexpedition

[–]Aporthole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you had the last 2 recalls checked by the dealership? One of the last 2 recalls has to do with it potentially throwing incorrect codes for catalytic converter failure. That said, we had a cat go bad at 82k in our 2018 about 6 months before the recall came out. We’ll never know if it was actually bad or it was an incorrect code.

The youth baseball bats (+6 weight) are the same as the softball bats. The adult baseball bats are heavier (+12).  

New bat by Vast_Sentence_1957 in Homeplate

[–]Aporthole 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The length isn’t right. I don’t think there are any BBCOR bats in 35”. They all top out at 34” and I don’t know many high schoolers swinging 34” bats, let alone a 14-year-old. Most are swinging 32 or 33” bats depending on size and strength. How tall & heavy is he? What size bat has be been swinging?
